Which of These Top Cameraphones Is Better?

The Google Pixel 8 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max are arguably the two best phones available at the moment, as they offer creatives a huge range of advanced features and versatile capabilities that make them desirable tools for all sorts of applications. Which of these phones works best for your needs? This fantastic video comparison takes a look at both phones to help you decide. 

Coming to you from Kevin Raposo, this excellent video review takes a look at the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max and Google Pixel 8 Pro. Both of these phones are impressively capable and can easily slot into numerous professional workflows, providing a range of innovative tools for content creation and ensuring you get the best results. Generally, it seems that the iPhone edges out the Pixel in terms of image quality, but on the other hand, the Pixel has some rather intriguing features that offer some nice improvements to quality of life. One I particularly appreciate is the AI group shot feature, which takes a range of shots to ensure every person in the frame is captured with their eyes open and a smile on their face, then blends the best results for each individual into a final shot. No matter which you decide to use, both phones look quite impressive. Check out the video above for Raposo's full thoughts on both phones.

I have never found a phone that takes what I consider an accurate picture. My test is very simple. Look at anything colorful, a flower, a sunset, a floral shirt, doesn't matter. Go to take a picture. Does the preview on the camera look like what you are seeing? I have NEVER found a phone camera that is accurate. They all increase the saturation, or adjust the color warmth, and it's just wrong. And don't say "well, it will look different on a PC." Bull. I have tried with a older Galaxy, a current Pixel 6, even an iPhone. All look the same on the PC. In other words, wrong. If I found one in a store that took an ACCURATE picture, I would get in a heartbeat.

Stopped watching after the first 5 minutes cause it's already obviously Apple-fanboy biased. "The iphone is better cause its main camera is wider" then acts like you have to step "a few steps back" to get the same photo. LMAO, yeah right, cause of 1mm difference in focal length. There's a 50MP wide angle lens, just zoom out if you think it's not wide enough or are you too overwhelmed with putting 2 fingers on the screen and pinch?
