    Bottom line: Is the iPhone 12 worth paying $350 more? Hell no!

  • @OldRacingGames
    @OldRacingGames Před 3 lety +12

    This was a really well done comparison. I think it has sold the Pixel to me. The iPhone seems to have greater clarity during the daytime, but when the light levels are low, the Pixel outshines it in every way. And then there's the price difference.

    • @GrantLikesTech
      @GrantLikesTech  Před 3 lety +1

      Thanks, Pixel is definitely tough to beat for sure.

    • @soulfury123
      @soulfury123 Před 3 lety

      I'd agree although the iPhone does much better with the lights in the background. The Pixel dark mode lights are not as sharp. Also the iPhone seemed just a hair more stable while moving. Otherwise hard to tell that much difference. Thanks for the comparison, very well done!

  • @mocha6315

    Google's computational photography is on another level. Just for the photos that sky in it, Apple's software make it more blueish which is a bit more pleasant to see.

    • @criggthekid
      @criggthekid Před 3 lety +1

      Exactly! If google could keep the same great high dynamic range but make the skys more blue like Apple they would have the perfect photo! The HDR on the pixel is so much better than apples but that blue sky is a major issue on pixels. I own both and don’t know which one I really prefer

  • @carlosbarross
    @carlosbarross Před rokem +3

    It feels like Google photos are more natural, that's why I think it is the best and I also had an iphone 12 and the photos always looked a little bit saturated and yellowish.

    This video was very helpful, my digitizer went out on my iPhone mini 12 and i had to buy a new phone but I'm broke. i by chance ended up getting a pixel 4a 5g on backmarket with 128 gb in excellent condition for only 100 bucks! just setting the phone up n ow and came across your video and as a photo enthusiast I am very excited with my purchase. Thank you!

    Great comparison! I liked the pixel best overall. Even on the video. I liked the colors and sharpness on the pixel better with video although the apple had better stabilization. The pixel seemed to be more true to life to me,which i like better. I would like to buy a pixel 6xl phone if they make one with decent specs.

    now this is a proper comparison video, thanks a bunch! I wonder if by taking the pictures in RAW with the Google Pixel 4a the result can be even better? or you did so already? with video iPhone wins, but shooting videos on phones is still a bit of a waste of time in my opinion.

    • @GrantLikesTech

    Pixel beats the 12 but both camera's are really good. Vids of iphone are better, but wow pixel made a giant leap forward. The vids are really good now.
    But i prefer android over Apple. Plus my 4a5g costs me 400 euro and the 12 (128 Gb) is 1000 euro's!
    One question, do U know what framerate the pixel has on cinegraphic video?
