Pixel looks very good , can't wait to see what the 8 can do
Hell yes
Most likely it's going to be the same as P7Pro.
Pixel 7 Pro had autofocusing issues in this comparison, but considering the price difference between the two, I think it held up against the iPhone 15 Pro Max rather well.
I think pixel 7 did better in most cases than the iphone 15 did. Those not focused shots at night were probably because he tapped the screen and it locked focus as thoses were the only photos that are blurry and not focused. Pixel is sharper and brighter while iphone is fine and contrasty. Also you can see that the pixel has more dynamic range than the iphone specially at those night shots. Pixel 7 won the photo and iphone won the video. Considering the price and which phone has really improved ill go with the pixel and cant wait what the pixel 8 has to offer
The only autofocus issue was mainly with the 5x zoom when capturing images of close objects. That's only because the focus distance in the Pixel is higher than the iPhone.
2:35 killed the iphone and tbh not many people throw photos at night. I think the pixel won even being the older phone tress were sharper and more natural
Pixel has better colors, more natural.
Not across the board. They go back and forth. In terms of the front facing camera, you can’t even compare the two. Night and day difference with the IPhone. And I say that as a Pixel guy..
@@rockowilson2320 Nah Pixel is sharper, brighter, and has more dynamic range while the iphone is fine but too contrasty. No to mention that 5x telephoto on the pixel is so sharp and good. And the only bad thing about the pixel selfie camera is the selfie video at night
kah3..worst
@paimog9233 Again, not across the board. If this was a blind camera comparison, I'm sure you'd give the win to more than a few of IPhone's pics. This fanboy devotion is just silly. Neither phone crushes the other.
@@rockowilson2320 Well lets wait and see for the blind test of others then
So apple still hasn't sorted out that yellow orange tint to all their photos. Never a good white balance.
There is a setting which allows you to get a cooler look. It’s called Photographic Styles and when you set your phone up you switch to the look you prefer. Job done!
And pixels have the magenta tint still ( on the White balance spectrum)
😅
Is always yellow 💛, boring as fuck
I luv de 7pro ❤
The fact that a previous year's Pixel 7 Pro, which is like almost just half the price of the same year's iPhone holds up pretty well with the latest iPhone15 Pro is brilliant. Can't wait to see the next Pixel beat iPhone. Google is definitely capable of building something like that, I just pray & hope they do so.
Love your videos bro especially the last one with the 15 Pro Max Video zooming
Not much of the different. Basically, this comparison still close each other between $650 vs $1000 devices. I go with #Pixel.
That is a major win for the iPhone, a draw against the Pixel in photos is the closest they have been for many years, as the Pixel is the King of Photography. I expect the Pixel 8 Pro to nip ahead again in a couple of weeks (hopefully).
Except for that selfie camera. Looks like gas station phone quality on the Pixel. Main reason I got rid of my 7 Pro. Hopefully they can bring the quality up to the same level as the IPhone, and Samsung.
@@rockowilson2320 its not bad. its actually wider than the iphone which is great. the only bad thing about the selfie is the selfie video at night
@@rockowilson2320 Again? I think the Pixel boy is actually the boy iphone
Professional photographer votes for pixel
Professional Photographer votes for iPhone
Professional photographer look at 3:04 and vote for iPhone 🤣
Look at noises around hairs.
When the Pixel processes the scene right, it nails it!
Pixel 7 pro camera more natural colour 😮
Absolutely
And a top performer
On a budget a definite yes
Where the iPhone excels is the shutter
The shutter makes a massive difference in actually get the shot on motion stills
And the shutter adjustment through light and scene variations during videography
quite simply sets the iPhone apart
But on non motion stills
The pixel 7 Pro is the best
And the pixel 7 Pro as a budget device - YES ! YES ! AND YES !
With the devaluation of mobiles versus iPhone value retention
And all other factors taken into account
AS A MEDIA DEVICE
THE iPHONE remains the Victor .
For battery and power performance ,
The MacBook Pro remains the Victor .
Apple truly is an exclusive niche brand based on build quality , truly brilliant performance , and the very best integrated eco system and media platform and third party app integration ,
Which justified exclusivity truly sets Apple 🍎 apart and above all competition .
But I 100% recommend the Pixel 7 Pro as a brilliant and justifiable budget device 👍🏻
Sadly not just a colour profile, but if you look at something like 1:30 those chalk drawings, the difference in detail, not so aggressive sharpening and much higher dynamic range is really pronounced.
Thank you so much for this!
Hey, Nick! Thanks for the comparison!
Can you show us 100% photo crops in next comparisons? Without it we can see only colour difference.
Wait for comparison with Pixel 8 Pro
Nice comparison and nice music(s)
tbh they are really close I like some of the photos from each camera.
My sister is going to Europe with her husband and I was looking to see if SOMEONE had done a comparison video on this (a benchmark we know!)
Appreciate it!
Big W for having such a nice family. Keep it up king
750€ against 1200€ - and the differences are so small...
Pixel 7pro at $650 now at Amazon is clearly the winner here. You can't beat the price as the camera and video features are almost neck to neck.
I've got the Pixel Pro 6. The problem from version 6 and above the software trying to figure the scene is not consistent and these Google phones will produce garbage photos particularly by over-sharpening them.
I tested doing portraits with Pixel 6 against an iPhone 14 and the iPhone got it right every time. Out of about 10 photos, my pixel only got two right? That's atrocious. If you've got the money and photography is your thing then go for the iPhone. If you're only into snapshots then go for the Pixel. With the Pixel expected delete a lot of photos, especially when the scene has a lot of detail. It butchers them.
Iphone takes this one but there are so many issues with the pixel phone I do not recommend getting it regardless of the camera.
@@hienho15 like what?
@@paimog9233 I have the pixel 7 pro and have used pixel phone since pixel 2. It has a bad battery life, overheating, connection issues, slow charging, and lots of bugs. Don't get a phone just for the camera. And for FYI I don't use any apple products. Not a fanboy of any brand.
@@hienho15 I had way more issues with my 13 Pro Max than I have had with my Pixel 7 Pro.
I'm surprised how good the telephoto is on the pixel. Even in video i thought the pixel 5x lens looked better and pixels are not known for video quality
I actually 👍🏽
Im in love with the music background.
Pixel really surprised me! They go back and forth in still pics with a slight edge to pixel but video at night definitely better on iPhone
I don't think I realized how good pixel 7pro was until this video. I'm considering trading my s23 ultra for pixel 8 pro when it comes out. Tensor chip though 😭
I'm in the same boat... I thought S23U is superior but then I miss pixel experience. That camera + now playing is so underrated.
yeh i will never go tensor more power to people who do but im sticking to snapdragon
The Pixel 8 Pro is getting a new TOF sensor to help with portraits and hopefully focus. It was rumored to get the GN2 main sensor but newer leaks suggest it's keeping the same GN1. However, the ultra wide is getting some new hardware. So hopefully that will fix the terrible ultrawide shots. Thanks for this comparison! Looking forward to the 8 Pro vs 15 Pro Max in a few more weeks 🙌.
What, it doesn't have terrible ultra wide shots.
@@b11480 have you seen the video? The noise in low light is horrible in comparison.
@@Tater1722 I have iPhone and the 7 pro and the pixel shots are good.
Tbh you should have told us which picture had more accurate colors to what you were seeing with your eyes. The white balance between the two were soooo different in every pic
Pixel better pics, iPhone better Video at night..
I love the less saturated colors of the Pixel, as you can always boost the saturation/vibrancy if you want something more vibrant. Its easier than doing the opposite.
For a more catchy look, however, I would prefer Samsung's colours to those of Apple. The iPhone's warmer tones can sometimes make look a photo yellowish (to my eyes), but it's totally a matter of taste.
For videos, though, Apple is still better overall than the competition.
With photography styles you can adjust it to your liking
@@abzone978 even better, then! I can't wait to see the next Pixel phones
Pixel photos iphone on video my opinion
It trades blows, really stoked to see how it compares to Pixel 8 Pro in few weeks time. New iPhones contrast and color balance style actually feels very reminisance to past Pixels, especially between P2 and P4.
Finally I got something to tell more that both phones shoot well in an indoor environment 😊 quality looks similar almost
FYI, this right here 1:24 isn't a 5x optical zoom shot on the iPhone because you're too close and it isn't using the 5x camera (but the primary)
The video recording on the pixel has 3 completely different color profiles between each lens. Ouch.
Altho they traded blows, I find the Pixel came out on top in most of the side by sides.
Also, something that Apple's doing that I kinda sorta like and dislike with their color science, sharpening and depth of field.
In most cases, the iPhone shots end up looking too artificial and over saturated. But there were some REALLY beautiful shots captured by the iPhone.
The elephant in the room is how the Pixel is now on par with, and in some cases better than, the iPhone in videography. There. I said it.
The results in the video back your video quality opinion up completely.
iPhone obliterated shitty pixel
Gotta love the Cleveland Museum of Art! Great place to take pictures. I miss CLE!!
I’m a Pixel guy, but the the iPhone’s images look slightly cleaner, with a better color profile. I’m assuming due to default 24mp on the iPhone. The selfie camera is honestly laughably bad on the Pixel. Hopefully the 8 Pro fixes that. 👍
I whole heartedly disagree i think apple phones color are saturated all in the wrong places
Completely diagree too, pixels colours are better accross the board
But I think the iPhone ones looks better lol looks more like a shot in the movies lmao everyone have different preferences i guess.
Sorry disagree I love Pixel photos than iPhone
I saw the same thing just the other way around. Pixel continues to be the king of still photography. Good thing you are a Pixel guy, I can only imagine if you were an iPhone guy. LOL
I own regular Pixel 7 and I love how it can capture all detail especially the way it processes saturation. Unfortunately it does poor job on night video. I cannot wait upgrading to Pixel 8 Pro.
Both are very good, roughly on a par for photos. The iPhone serms much better at video . Considering the pixel is a more budget friendly phone and less premium device it's superb!
The Pixel has always had arguably the best photos on a smartphone - while iPhone usually has the best video quality. It has nothing to do with your perception of the iPhone being more premium. The iPhone tops the S23 Ultra in photos and videos as well. Anyway, I would love to see how the iPhone 15 Pro Max competes against the Pixel 8 Pro that will come out in under two weeks.
How do you say iphone video quality is better...
It seems the same for me
@@jeevanandham07
I used to think iPhone's ultrawide was not that good, until I saw the Pixel's ultrawide video...
It is just impossible to improve further in the camera department due to physical constraints, good camera needs more space hence thicker phones are inevitable
They look pretty much identical. The iPhone seems to have a warmer WB. Other than that, you would need to really pixel peep to find differences in my opinion.
Not warm, artificial. iPhone tends to overdo after 8plus.
yes i think so too, watching this video from my monitor not phone, i think iphone has warmer tone .
iPhone has better control of noise, details and better HDR on video.
Pixel wins the photo category.
If Pixel increases the camera sensor size and brings computational process in videos it can come close or beat the iPhone.
Pixel is definitely better value for money.
Im shocked how close this was
great, thx
Thank you for tons of compare pics and video 👍
I would lean towards iPhone as pics have more color depth meaning blacks are closer to black vs Pixel. Noticeable in low light pics at 10:48 seems Pixel is trying process a lot to identify words to make it clean but brick wall is totally messed up in Pixel
Day time pics is even.
Video is iPhone always.
Pixel 7 looks more natural to me.
Pixel is a lifestyle
Please Compare Sony Xperia 1 Mark 5 With these Both Devices..
Requesting
4:56 Pixel's HDR in daylight video is impressive considering the sky in iPhone in blown out...but it reverses in low-light 11:22.
The iphone generally has more contrast, brightness, sharpeness with green/warm tint.
The portraits look bad on Pixel and the video recording has improved but it's still below the iPhones. Still photos are amazing on Pixel as usual but the hardware on Iphone is just better.
Iphone wins overall.
Cheers 🥂
Sir moto edge 40 Neo ??? Comparison please
Can anyone tell me how to edit video from the pixel 7 pro? iMovie won't work, Adobe...no, Fillmora...no. So, so frustrated. Love your program, just subscribed.
i dont understand why my pixel 7 pro got too much flare even the lens are pretty clean and never install any lens cover where ever i trying to change angle and possing out from a lamp its still flaring. but i dint see anyone shown this issue. i've seen all youtubers have reviewed this pixel only have a normal flare.
Great video, looks like pixel so noisy at night. Sometimes night shots is better than iPhone but its noisy. X5 video both of them are better than others in some shots. Pixel video sometimes has a fogy look to it
I hope to make another comparison on TikTok and Snapchat
Both great
Watching this on my Pixel 7 Pro and I'm still undecided whether I should buy the iPhone 15 Pro Max. It's been 8 years since I last used an iPhone as my daily phone.
I have 7 pro and It seems u had saturation on. Bc my photos never come out that plain.
photo: pixel 7 pro, video: 15 pro max
Please, make a comparison between 15 pro max and S23 Ultra
I think if you compare the windows from the 4:30 section onwards. The pixel is showing the colour and clouds are visible. iPhone is washing this out to almost just white...
2:33 5x zoom on Pixel is way better. Look at the group of people walking there
Minimal difference in the still photos, and for the price difference, damn.
@Phandroid 4:49 Which one is more true to life? Which skin tone is closest in reality? None of us watching at home can tell, only you can.
Cold versus warm
In my perspective pixel 7 pro is shooting more detailed images than 15pro. But only issue is stabilization. iPhone does extremely well but still pixel is way better and captured every tiny detail. Even I am going to buy 15pro. Now I am confused but you know iphone is craze now a days. People judge you now a days by which phone are you holding. I think so 😂
It's a crazy world we live in. i've been using pixel for the past 4 years, and people like me make the difference
@@dieulensvictor Future is scary I can only say
$650 vs. $1200? If you are soley buying a mobile phone for a camera there is little to no real material difference between these 2. Take the difference and go on vacation with a loved one and make some life memories 😊
For me is Pixel better, but not by much and not in every scenario.
Overall iPhone looks more saturated and tends to be add contrast. It is clearly visible on photos at 1:30. Because of that Pixel looks more like IRL.
Videos is little better on iPhone.
Night mode I cant decide, Pixel looks like have focus problem in this scenarios, for ultrawide really prefer iPhone, for standard and telephoto lens Pixel.
2:31 What happened to the iphone video here? It's quite bad.
Audio captured from P7Pro sounded flat and mono. 15 Pro Max has stereo, or it could be simulated.
Both are really effin good
Wow, el pixel es impresionante la verdad.
pixel 5x is much better. wow
I am really impressed how good Pixel is. This is the latest and the greatest from Iphone and still one year older Pixel is better. Its very close now. Maybe like in picture department Pixel took it 99 to 97. And in video iphone took it like 99 to 97. Very close... but what about the price and the year of manufacture? Thank you for the great review and the time you put in this to make this happend...
2:32 big fail on iphone
From 4:22 to 5:12 This part of the video is where you can analyse the image quality.
Here the iphone is in another level because of the skin texture and colour .
Much more real.
The Pixel photos look mostly sharper and are more true to real world colour so for photos the pixel wins for me, however the iphone 15 pro max makes far better videos having said that you're comparing the latest iphone that's just been released that costs double the price, a better comparison would be the pixel 8 pro when it gets released in about 9 days time
Pixel 7p pictures are better, night video on iPhone. iPhone sometime oversharpen and overall not only warmer but unfortunately slight green touch. It's of course difficult to know the real colour balance, but as you obviously don't have a greenish beard ...
From personal experience I know iPhone clouds and sky are also wrong color (too much blue) and overdramatic HDR in clouds since iPhone 11 Pro. Don't like that at all. GCam sometimes used to have a slightly wrong magenta touch but I couldn't see this here at all. So for pics clear winner Pixel. Surprisingly Pixel has more lense flair at night and focus at night (your Portrait shots) often is wrong or you're to near for it. Your Pixel also seems to be inconsistent at night. Some time it's well ahead of iPhone (as expected) but sometime it's completely noisy. Not good.
❤ nice video ❤
Pixel 8 Pro is coming!
I think they look closer than ever before. Both do very well, with some shots looking better on the Pixel and others on the iPhone. I did like the skin tone rendering more in most iPhone shots though. The Pixel sometimes shows more detail, but in other shots it appears the other way around. For video I do think the iPhone generally performs better with smoother transitions between the lenses and not looking over-sharpened like the Pixel does in some cases.
Edit: I now came to the part with the low-light video, and here the iPhone is clearly better, particularly the ultra-wide in comparison. The Pixel is so grainy, it's pretty much unusable, while the iPhone at least still looks acceptable. For pictures the difference is smaller, but the iPhone still has the edge here in my opinion, producing a little cleaner looking shots.
@2:29 something odd happens with the zoom on the iPhone. It appears that it was just cropping into the main sensor here at 5x instead of switching to the 5x lens. I don't know if this was a software glitch of a user error (zoom to 4,9x instead of 5x maybe?). But that's clearly the reason why this particular shot doesn't look good on the iPhone in comparison to the Pixel.
can't be user error as we simply tap the 5x zoom button. If you look at all the 5x video zoom comparisons, it always looks better on the pixel 7 Pro. While both phones use the same sensor size, the pixel has 48MP versis 12MP on the iPhone, which means there's a lot more data to work with.
@@phandroidOkay, a software glitch it must have been then. With your argument that '5x video always looks better on the Pixel 7 pro', I feel this is more opinion based, and I don't fully agree there. I didn't feel this was consistently the case. In some shots I did prefer the Pixel, but not in other ones. Particularly not with low light, as it didn't do so well in general here with all lenses actually. The Pixel also tends to use more artificial sharpening in video mode (not so much in photos), giving a fake sense of 'more detail', but also giving you that typical consumer grade 'smartphone video' look. Apple seems to have toned this down with the iPhone 15 pro compared to the previous one. Also a sensor with more pixels doesn't always guarantee better results, as the pixel size on the sensor then usually gets smaller too. This can also be seen with the Samsung S23 200 mp sensor not always giving sharper results than Apple's 48 mp sensor.
@2:04 If you stop the video here and analyze the image of the 5x lenses, you can see what I mean with 'artificial sharpening' being overdone on the Pixel. At first glance it might seem as if there's more detail in the Pixel image. But when you look more closely at for instance the banner on the building you can see that the text "China's Southern Paradise" has a clearly noticeable sharpening halo around it on the Pixel, but not on the iPhone. This of course translates to the rest of the image too. The actual detail is virtually the same, but the iPhone image looks smoother and more like what you'd get from a professional camera, compared to the over-sharpened image of the Pixel.
Haha apple fan boy here😂😂😂😂😂
Let me tell you my honest opinion for both devices, i watched ur video at max resolution with full brightness & I found p7pro is far better than ip15pm look at 2.35 those guys was just walking here & there and I found that pixel handles hdr better than ip, even at 4.35 p7pro was better & in almost every single terms p7pro was beating ip15pm.. anyways it's good video i enjoyed the video thanks man really appreciated ur work have a good day!! 🤞🏻
Totally agree
Should go to SpecSavers iPhone destroyed the Google Turd
That's zoom camera video quality...
What about normal 1x video?
I think P7P has better details in telephoto zoom 5x in video
I've always disliked how skin tones look on iPhone video in certain lighting conditions that require heavier HDR.
The pixel is still the champion of still images. The color rendering just can't be beaten. Most balance natural shots with the best color reproduction. Sorry 15 Pro Max another L this year. I can only imagine how good the Pixel 8 Pro is going to be 😵💫
Pixel's HDR and color accuracy is amazing, in the video part you can see the iPhone 15 Pro background just overexposed
If that's how the 1 year old Pixel compares to the brand new iPhone, I can't wait for the P8 Pro.
The 5x video from the Pixel is vastly superior, which is weird b/c the iPhone's 5x pictures generally look sharper?
Something else that I have noticed across comparisons this year is that iPhone and Galaxy phones boost eye color and detail. The Pixel doesn't not. I hope they adjust that in the algorithm at some point.
Pixel: better photos
iPhone: better videos
that 5x telephoto of the iphone is soo impressive, better than pixel's and xiaomi's 5x
HOLY cow did the Pixel get a video software update or something?? It was AS GOOD (and sometimes better than the iPhone) in almost all video EXCEPT lower light conditions!
Maybe i haven't been paying attention but it used to be that iPhone would just STEAMROLL Pixel in video BEFORE 😮
Is it just me? The Pixel 7 Pro's audio sounds much better than the iPhone...
that photo is changed side 10:13 pixel and iPhone
It's a old phone vs a new phone hard to gauge
And on the other hand the iPhone 15 pro max colour looks bright and fade
This guy looks like a younger thinner Robin Williams.
Cant wait what pixel 8 will show, I home will be better than 7.
aunt was amazing
I have a Pixel 7pro and I also have iPhone 13pro. I really like them both, each has it pros and cons but both can do amazing shots. Only downside I found on Pixel is that Cinematic mode is jittery and very artificial compared to iPhones butter smooth cinematic delivery. I am looking to get Pixel 8pro and skip 15pro until 16pro.
You make no sense. All that pixel negativity and iPhone positivity then you say you're going to get the pixel. Huh?? Why get a pixel at all. Just get the iPhone.
@@mikeydurdenPlease, read and think before you answer.
@@BasMeijer what question am I to read and think before I answer?
all that and the pixel is a year old ! i cant wait for the pixel 8 pro i trust that it gonna beat the iphone very clearly
Wow the pixel still take store best photos in my opinion. That’s amazing
I can't believe my eyes, is that Pixel 7 Pro took better videos than the iPhone? The Pixel video's contrast and colors are on point
So no Android phone can do 5x portrait? What is the point of their tele zoom lenses? Telescope?
you have to be a good 15 feet away from someone to take a 5x portrait shot. That's not very practical.
@@phandroid that’s more than practical. There are so many scenarios where you want to take a portrait of someone far but don’t want him/her to know. also it’s very practical when shooting animal photos. sometimes 300mm is not even enough let alone 125mm….
@@kenchen821 You are not suppose to take photos of someone you dont know especially in Portrait, creep!
@@phandroid Pixels 5X looks a little sharper than the iPhones 5X, what do you think?
@@ssaini5028 seriously? when you snap a photo in a park or on the street, how many people will be in your picture? You know all of them?
I think the camera system as a whole on the iphone is much better. Of note, the lens transitions and image stabilization on the iphone is better.
We will definitely not find the price difference in the cameras section.
