This is my 1,325th video of Pixel 6 Pro camera reviews I've watched. I've come to the conclusion after all these reviews, it takes great shots. Some are better on S21 ultra, some are better on Iphone 13. But if you never compared any of these phones in person, you'd be pleased with the results...its just the Pixel phones do it for a lot less $$$$. Hopefully it will lower the cost of phones for the consumers in the future.

@1:22....the dog's fur is much better looking in the S21 picture. The dog is absolutely blurry in the Pixel picture.

Great comparison, honestly probably the best one I've seen so far. I completely agree that regular photos are probably a tad better on the pixel, but overall the s21U is the more flexible option

Comparing 4x zoom of pixel and 4x zoom of s21 ultra is a little BS..I think(not 100%sure), pixel uses optical zoom in 4x while s21 uses digital zoom in 4x... how bout use both optical zoom of both devices and compare the pictures.

I use an S21 ultra and the photo quality is simply outstanding but man, the 4k60 video quality is total trash, with serious lack of detail and over sharpening. I compared 4k60 with 4k30 videos on all lenses side by side on a monitor and I noticed the difference in detail is simply shocking. Ultrawide 4k60 specifically is just unbearable to watch, like a water painting... Samsung uses some sort of frame interpolation to render 4k60 and combined with low bit rates the result is very bad. Because of that, I always stick to 4k30 on all my videos and the quality is really good but honestly, I shouldn't be making this compromise on a 2021 ultra flagship.

This was such a cool and exciting comparison! Both of these phones are amazing indeed.

I use 100x zoom on S21 for peeping tom looking at objects from really far away something that I cannot see with my naked eye. Its like carrying a binocular in your pocket

Seems like phone cameras have gotten really good. You can't go wrong with any of them. The Pixel is really impressive too!

ecellent review man. Were you punched out on selfie portrait mode to the group shot or solo? Group is nice and wide and all i ever use.

Overall I liked the pixel better for everyday shots. Updates will make even more refined

Great vid, thank you for sharing. How do you think the phones would compare if they used a 3rd party paid camera app and shooting in RAW? (ex. Camera FV5)

When using the normal camera you should take more pictures of people. I feel like that's majority of the pics that people take and it'll help with comparison a lot. I've only seen one reviewer do this and I thought that the Pixel's main camera was worse when taking pictures of people that the Samsung. I do agree that the pixel looks better when taking landscape/photographer pics from the main camera though.

Awesome video! All but the macro test, use the 4x lense to get really close instead of the main or ultrawide sensor on the pixel. It will BLOW you away

Samsung's whole scene looks quite washed out and the Pixel has more details: notice the green lights on the right, which appear almost white in the Samsung, how blurry most things are vs the Pixel, notice the interior of the building seen through the windows, etc. This is all nitpicking of course because we're at the point that most flagship cameras are super good right now. On top of that, consider the price point... the base S21 Ultra is $300 more expensive than the base P6P

Is there anywhere that these sample photos and videos are uploaded? I would love to be able to download them and view in full resolution.

Look at the white patches on the widow glass at around 5.13 on pixels image. Even though the outside landscape is cleaner the windows have a lot of these weird white patches.

People don't realize that the Pixel's biggest improvement is finally being able to compete with the big boys again. Nobody should have expected it to beat the competition, since mobile camera tech has reached a bit of a plateau, and the Pixel is STILL using older sensors. But it holds up well now in areas in which it's been sorely lacking for at least a couple of years. I'm not making excuses for the Pixel, as I'm definitely a Samsung fan. I'm just trying to keep it real. Truth is: you'll be happy with whatever phone you pick.

@@ouazizireda8809 For the average person there is almost zero cases where 108mp would be more useful over a larger sensor. There’s a reason as to why good cameras like the Sony A7iii doesn’t have over 100 megapixels, because it makes it harder to capture more light because the physical size of the pixel is smaller. With a larger sensor, you will be capturing much more light, which can drastically improve image quality, especially in badly lit environments (AKA Most indoor photos). The only good reason as to why 108mp would be useful is if you’re trying to print a large photo.

My boy, that was what I wanted to see, a very complete and well put together side by side comparison with a variety of shots!

Since Google upgraded the camera hardware they are forced to start from scratch on the phones software. It will probably take a while before they get it right. At this point Google will mostly just be tweaking the software.

Before I even watch this, I want to say Since the OG Pixel and The Note 5, I've gone back and forth between Samsung Flagships and Pixels and I always end up with a Pixel until the S21 Ultra...this was because there was no Flagship Pixel 5XL...so now, I have a S21 Ultra and Pixel Pro 6...I have to say the S21 Ultra has been the most consistent Samsung Camera ever...and I do love the Galaxy Watch 4, Samsung Health and prefer it all to be on a Samsung Phone but I will give my Pixel Pro 6 a chance. I know it has one advantage already and that's the automatic Astrophotography mode but beyond that, I think the cameras are going to be neck and neck.

Use the 4x zoom lens for macro.

These camera comparisons are very educative but the summary is that your phone will always take the best shots until you compare with others. You're taking the shot for yourself not to go around comparing with others. Also when your mind believes photograph is better than from another phone's, then it'll be hard to convince one otherwise.

10:44 That's actually not the reason. The pixel size doesn't affect the total amount of light that is captured. More pixels just mean more read noise and that's why Samsung and Google have sensors with a 12 megapixel analog binning mode, where the read noise is lower than in the full resolution mode (probably comparable to a 12 megapixel sensor). Probably, they do use the analog binning mode of the sensor for video.

Couldn't help but notice that from photos the front camera of the S21U, your face looks red! Almost looks as you are sunburnt! Images are sharper and better yes but the skin looks more red than normal

Samsung's video is becoming worse and worse, the more they move towards higher resolution sensors. The maker of , the still ahead of it's time , NX1, is making such a wrong move, it's unbelievable. Instead of making a large high res sensor, make a large lower res sensor, like a 1/1.3 inch 20MP sensor! Anybody with a little knowledge of cameras, will tell how bad extreme high resolution sensors are at video.

9:43 Actually, that's not the reason. The S21 Ultra's 10x camera captures a lower total(!) amount of light per time than the Pixel's 4x camera. But the S21 Ultra's 10x camera captures a higher(!) amount of light per time from distant objects(!) than the Pixel 6 Pro. One of the reasons why the S21 Ultra's 10x camera might be not that good in low light is because there are far more pixels per object, this leads to more read noise per object.

Sure, you examine other things about the camera like colors & features, but you don't understand what image "quality" means. If you were getting into a cab at the airport at 3:15 PM, and getting into a limousine 9 cars away was Bob Dylan, and you had one chance to get a photo, which phone would create the best image for you to keep & share forever? Simple. Zoom, don't zoom, crop, don't crop, it makes no difference. Which phone will produce an image that will be the sharpest/cleanest with most detail? But in all these reviews the reviewer never gets there.

Can't really tell any major differences....if this is a blind test I won't be able to tell which is which.

I can say, after having my Pixel 2 XL for 4 years, the shots have gotten better with each software update.
