hey it's judgement um Android what's gone hey buddy hey hey it's Josh magar from Andrew authority what's going on everybody and we're taking a look at the cameras of the iPhone 7 and the Galaxy S to compare the two now because these are the smaller devices in their respective lines we're going to just use those cameras and you can take a look at our comparison of the note 7 versus the 7 plus and now we'll be in a different video but for now we're just taking a look at these now we're mainly going to be passing judgment on the picture quality so you'll see a lot of still shots here and we'll zoom in to them with 100 crops from time to time however in abundant light for the most part we found that it's kind of a toss-up between these two cameras while the galaxy s7 might tend to saturate a little bit more than the slightly more accurate iPhone 7 in its pictures we did find that both pictures were actually really pleasing to the eye we also did a lot of these photos with HDR off so unless otherwise stated all of these photos are purely from the sensor and camera app in auto mode without HDR we do have one main example to show the HDR effects then we'll let you know when that comes up main camera recording was done in 4k resolution which means that video stabilization the software videos let it be off but all of these clips will be optically stabilized still so you can see what that effect has on the videos both cameras use 12 megapixels and the galaxy s7 uses dual focus pixels to help with autofocus which will be shown in a clip in a little bit but from there you have 4k video recording and on the front facing cameras you have the 5 megapixels on the galaxy s7 and 7 megapixels on the iPhone 7 however the galaxy s7 is capable of recording 2k video on the front shooter how are you good I'm good kind of snuck Gannon got some Oprah right in attending this conference now you may notice that the Galaxy s7 s front-facing camera is using software stabilization at 1080p this is mainly to demonstrate how it does have this software stabilization over the iPhone 7 which does not so in this particular situation from the top balcony at the nerdcon in Pasadena I was able to zoom into this photo and notice that the iPhone 7 does tend to overexpose just a little bit while the galaxy s7 does tend to over saturate however in this picture the details are captured very well no matter which one you look at that changes when I'm taking a look at this particular close-up photo where the close-up when zoomed in actually shows that the galaxy s7 is better at getting the details in the fariñas of this little Flareon even this awesome rendition of ash from the Evil Dead was better rendered on the galaxy s7 which did a better job of sharpening the image as you can see in the chainsaw hand there where it's just a little bit softer in the iPhone 7 putting the galaxy s7 above it in terms of just overall quality now in judging dynamic range I had to keep HDR off and then I've turned it on later to see what the effect would be in these photos with HDR off there definitely was a little bit better dynamic range of the iPhone 7 which was able to better expose the darker areas while not blowing out the rest however when HDR was turned on the galaxy s7 simply blew away the iPhone 7 in terms of its high dynamic range and also the fact that the HDR on the iPhone 7 is actually quite a bit more subtle my super commercial and I know everyone knows Hey let's take one last look at HDR before we get into our few low-light shots basically what the galaxy s7 is trying to do is compensate and kind of over exaggerated shadows while the iPhone 7 is trying to tone down what might otherwise be an already pretty well exposed photo and as I did mention the autofocus speed of the galaxy s7 is actually a lot better than the iPhone 7 mainly because of its dual focus pixels in this particular example you can see after tapping on the same area on both cameras while recording video the galaxy s7 simply does it a lot faster and for our final shots here in this camera comparison we'll take a look at low-light comparisons the galaxy s7 does tend to go warmer in its color temperature but as you can see here in Mega Man the details and the sharpness overall in the galaxy s7 is better for its subject and there's no better place to actually take a look at these low-light situations than in a restaurant of foodie pictures coming up just after this but you can see via the text on the wall that the galaxy s7 has better sharpness even if it is a lot warmer in color temperature and our final shot here is a foodie photo and you can see that all of those mustard seeds are looking better on the galaxy s7 and so there you had for this comparison between the cameras of the iPhones and the Samsung Galaxy s7 the galaxy s7 did excel in sharpness and detail and plenty of the shots that we saw but really if you take a look at both of these cameras you're going to get a good image or video either way they're both very capable cameras and you can let us know in the comments below which one you would prefer keep it tuned to Android or for even more coverage of
