iphone 14 vs samsung s22
iPhone 14 pro Max versus the SamsungGalaxy s22 Ultra which has the best camera setup I'm gonna try and find outI'll give you my thoughts along the way I'd love to hear what you think to drop a comment below but first let's look at some cinematic video okay so this is
Cinematic mode on the iPhone and this is portrait video it's on Samsung which you think is better it should just be glowing my face giving you a nice kind of professional bouquet blur behind me now on the 14 series we now have 4K and also 24 FPS options that Samsung still
enter to continue to be 30. I don't know how often you actually use this mode what do you think between the two best cinematic move I think it's this now over the last week or so I've probably taken I don't know like a thousand photos with these and I've put some of the best examples which I think illustrate the differences between the two cameras in this video but before we get to the proper nitty-gritty detailed
side-by-side comparison there are a few things that stuck out as I was actually using them for example screen brightness look at the difference between these two the iPhone 14 pro and pro Max now Peak at a whopping 2 000 nits when you're
outdoors and it's bright which means it
is actually a little bit easier to frame
and compose your photo compared to the
s22 ultra
which is still one of the
brightest phones you can get but the
iPhone is just a little bit easier to
use but then when it comes to lens
transitions while you may not be doing
this that regularly during video
recording you can clearly see the iPhone
is smoother and actually I even noticed
an improvement from the 14 coming from
the 13. so if you are filming and you
are switching between the lenses the
iPhone is noticeably smoother than the
s22 although to his credit the s22 does
let you pause and then resume video
recording which you still can't do on
the iPhone then from a pure Hardware
perspective the Samsung does have an
extra lens we have this Periscope camera
which gives us a 10 times optical zoom
so while I will say the iPhone's zoom
and telephoto quality has improved over
last year it still can't match the long
range Zoom that you get on the s22 ultra
I think we were all a little bit
disappointed after Apple's far out
invitation that rather than getting some
cool new astrophotography mode or
Periscope lens for long Zoom they just
gave us the two times Optical which
basically just uses a crop of that new
48 megapixel sensor to give you a 12
megapixel optical zoom also bear in mind
that we are about halfway through the
life cycle of the s22 series obviously
the Galaxy fold is Samsung's new sort of
mid-year refresh but actually that never
gives you quite the flagship cameras
that the top end S Series does so you
could argue apple has a six month
Advantage but well this is obviously the
case one advantage I have noticed with
the iPhone is that we now have a faster
shutter speed which which in some cases
gives you a usable photo versus a
non-usable photo and finally in terms of
pricing it is roughly the same it
depends where you live because in the US
they didn't get the price hike with the
iPhones like everywhere else did so here
in the UK the iPhone is 50 pounds more
expensive than the base s22 Ultra
however don't forget that the iPhone 14
pro its smaller brother shares the exact
same camera setup there is no difference
between the camera it's so actually if
you go for the pro model this is a
little bit cheaper but chances are 50
Quid hero there is not going to be the
deciding factor it's which ecosystem you
prefer what you're used to using
although I can tell you now they both
have incredible camera setups and they
actually share many of the same camera
features although to varying different
levels of quality so let's jump into a
few portrait photos and straight away
there's quite a significant difference I
mean just look at the color to start
with it's a much cooler palette on the
s22 across the board compared to the
warmer iPhone 14. interestingly I
mentioned this in my iPhone 14 pro max
review I shared a few days ago that
versus the 13 Series this was actually
cooler and much closer to a Samsung kind
of aesthetic than we had before with a
flatter warm look that you got with
iPhones moving up to three times which I
still think gives you the best focal
length for portrait shots again the
color difference is still there
particularly my skin tones and the
jacket you can also see the s22
generally has a wider field of view
across most of the lenses so at least
with these portrait shots there's
definitely a theme of a cooler more
contrasty heavier shadow kind of theme
that we're getting with the s22 I do
aesthetically prefer the iPhone 14s so
far but what do you think okay I think
it's lunch time which means heal time
these guys are very kindly sponsoring
this video and I've been using these hot
and savory meals as my lunch is probably
three or four times a week 10 flavors
these are some of my favorites although
having a lot of new Pasta Bolognese this
is one of the best ones I think give it
a good shape
two good scoops and actually that all
together
is just 400 calories which for a lunch
or even a dinner is great so it's simple
as boiling about 220 milliliters of
water it does say on the back of the
packet how much you need pouring it in
like so
giving it a little stir and then leaving
for five minutes so heel hot and savory
meals give you 26 vitamins and minerals
I like to add a little bit of frozen veg
which I've microwaved to it a little
salt or pepper and actually it's vegan
it's gluten free it's healthy
it's really nice as well so why not give
fuel a try I'll leave a link down below
you can check out the range of harm
saver meals and let me know which is
your favorite flavor I hate to draw
attention to the back of my hairy leg
I'm really sorry but you can see a lot
more in the iPhone's photo of the chair
of my leg you can see the outline of my
shorts whereas it's all just dark and
hidden on the s22 shot now these guys
work at my local cafe Nero which I go to
every single day pretty much and
actually one of the new features of the
iPhone is this foreground blur because
this is a portrait mode shot it's just
using the one times lens and there isn't
a particularly deep backdrop so you're
not really getting a ton of bokeh but
we're seeing this foreground blur on the
iPhone if you look at the till for a
portrait mode shot you'd want it to be
blurry you want a background and a
foreground block so in that regard I
prefer the iPhone but also look at the
t-shirts the color the Shadows are just
being crushed by the s22 now in the
beginning I talked about how the s22
ultra is the zoom telephoto King right
so at the extreme zooms yes the s20 is a
clear when gonna but anything up to 10
times I'm finding that the trading blows
shows like this I would say are a clear
win for the s22 but then look at these
other ones there is often more noise
with the iPhone but there's also a bit
more detail there a lot of the textures
are lost on the s22 so all together I
would say the s22 is still the zoom King
but the iPhone's catching up and I think
anything up to 10 times it can go either
way but generally I think it goes to the
s22
this church scene is really interesting
because it shows the difference of how
the phones handle the dynamic range the
iPhone's exposure has prioritized the
foreground so we have a blown out sun
with a lot less detail in the sky
whereas the s22 handles that much better
but the trade-off is we have a darker
foreground
and here with the castle I would say the
s22's colors are much more realistic
there's definitely a warmer flatter
yellowy vibe to the iPhone often I would
say especially with skin tones I do
prefer the iPhone but for this
particular shot I'm leaning towards the
Samsung once again we have those heavy
Shadows the heavy contrast on the s22
losing some of that information in the
dark areas and I'd also say the s22 has
gone overboard with the vibrancy and the
saturation here sadly my arms are not
that brown
but you can look at skies and buildings
all day long for me it's skin tones it's
faces that are the real test and the
real priority when it comes to a
smartphone camera at least for me and
between these two I've got to give it
for the iPhone
although this is a textbook example of
the new iPhone 14 series just going
crazy with the sharpening I don't know
why maybe that's something we can fix in
an update now switching to some
nighttime shots and holy moly we could
spend a whole video talking about this
one photo there is so much going on from
the detail on the back of Andrew's shirt
on the left side sitting on the chair to
the fire I mean the s22 handles the
bright highlights of the Flames better
we can see more detail there but the
trade-off is we have this really
distracting purpley blue light coming
into the center and the lower left of
the photo and actually if we jump to
this next photo wow look at the
difference in colors holy moly I mean no
one looks good in this photo
unfortunately they're going to hate me
for sharing this the s22's white balance
seems to actually be able to handle the
bright orange Flames a bit better if I
had to post one of these to Instagram or
maybe play around with it like room I
would probably go with the s22 shot as
for macro shots well I think they both
do a bloody good job actually I can see
a little bit more fine detail of those
rings on the iPhone shot but you can't
go wrong with either okay Switching
things around to the selfie camera and
actually this is one of the upgrades
with the iPhone 14 we have a water
aperture and it now supports autofocus
and looking at these two I think this is
a classic iPhone look and a classic
Samsung look which you prefer and I
guess this goes for the entire video is
subjective personally while I do
normally prefer A Brighter Image I think
the s22 looks a bit better there what do
you think okay so we're not here for the
next 10 years let me just wrap up some
of my impressions of the main camera so
far and I would say generally I'm
leaning towards preferring the iPhone it
is close they trade blows the iPhone is
generally brighter warmer in its color
tone and also I think more detailed
although it can suffer with over
sharpening whereas the s22 I would say
is a little bit inconsistent with its
colors sometimes it's way too cool other
times it oversaturates and then becomes
really vibrant and too warm and there's
also a big difference in how they handle
dynamic range those bright highlights
versus the Deep Shadows
now this is being shot with the main
rear cameras start 4K 30 on both what do
you think
let me give you a little bit of a tour
of the studio while you were analyze the
two videos this is my main workstation
as I'm sure you've seen if you're a
regular on the channel we have this
little living room area over here with a
big TV and look at the difference in the
lighting and the color of the sofa
that's really interesting actually over
here this is where my brother Pete works
this is his little workstation
and then over here is where we do a
bunch of our filming not all of it I
like to keep things a little bit varied
but we've got my big aperture light some
uh matte backgrounds an overhead tripod
to get some top down shots so what do
you think
which phone shoots better video
in low light
wow okay look at the difference there
I'm filming this with the front selfie
camera in 4k on both this is pretty
tricky lighting though we've got lots of
Philips Hue going on behind me we've got
the tech chap neon sign now that are
going to look fantastic in this light
but between the two what do you think
which comes on top
foreign
foreign
best well I can tell you they're both
incredible camera setups also this video
is not sponsored by either of these this
is my own personal opinion but more
often than not I pull out this the 14
pro Max or by extension the 14 pro I
think it's a better overall package I
think technically the s22 may be
superior and also we have more Pro kind
of options we've got director's view
we've got 8K video we've got the much
better long range Zoom but in terms of
how I use my phone for portraits for
videos dare I say even some cinematic
mode shots my preference would be the
iPhone 14 pro and pro Max but what about
you which one do you think came out on
top let me know in the comments below
thank you so much.
