I spent months in watching camera comparison videos, I saw all in your channel, after all that I bought Pixel 4a. Seeing this video makes me feel so lucky for choosing Pixel.
Great editing, great presenting, great music choice.
You have no ideas how much the Xperia 5ii is much better and also far superior in camera hardware as well as other hardware parts.
@@themessengerraw they are the same
@@pixelshaderx what's the point in being superior in the hardware department, if the end result is terrible?
@@presiv2104 The point is you will always have far better results in manual mode as long as your fundamental hardware is superior as that's the primary judge for authentic imaging output. What you see delivered by crap quality hardware are just heavily post processed photos by the software resulting in fake photos.
@@pixelshaderx no one cares about manual mode,simple is better,if you need to grab a photo quick you just point and shoot,you don't start tweaking settings, isn't it ?
Considering both are using Sony sensors, but the Xperia's sensor is so much newer, it's technically the better camera.
Blown away by Pixel's software optimization for the auto settings. Dream phone would be Pixel software in Xperia hardware
Pixel's software just kills the Sony's hardware. Great video 📸
Oh really 🤣 than why google buy sony sensor 😆
@@janes1138 pixel has inferior sony sensors than the xperia 5ii , but still used software to beat sony.
@@kameswaranjayakumar7470 can you speak English 😂😂 I mean if pixel beat Sony why they just buy sensor form Samsung or iPhone
And are you gonna trust this guy I had both of this in my hand I can confirm pixel beat Sony but but not too much like this video! And think a bout it brother ? Sony has 1.7f and pixel has 1.6f you think Sony should shoot brighter and pixel in auto mode 😀 think again brother and I’m not brand users! I tell to the true
@@janes1138 should I speak English like how you just spoke? 🙄
@@janes1138 In which parallel universe does the pixel have f1.6?
I looked side by side on a few images in the article and I've noticed that the quality of the Sony results have a out of camera feel and the Pixel has a phone photo quality. I didn't notice until I opened the images to really look at the images. Other than that the AI work on the Pixel is hands down better but add that to the Sony hardware and this will be an easy win for the Sony.
I think that the Pixel would do a lot better as well with a better hardware (bigger sensor, pixels... and a telephoto).
6:51 pixel 5
If you'd use Photo Pro and Cinema Pro app ..the overall thing would be way different ..I have 5ii .. and i know how good back cam is ..but i do know front camera is not really that good
Hi. Do you have an instagram? Wondering if the auto mode of sony’s camera tends to behave good in most situations or you mostly use the manual mode? I just love the “almost dslr” look of sony’s photos, but the probable lack of versatility is what makes me think a lot is it worth it. The thing is, I enjoy photography, but what worries me is whether my folks will be able to do some shots of me without the obligation to know all these iso and shutter-speed adjustments.
Disagree, I have had both phones now, and have done some comparison, the Xperia 5 II and the pixel 5 have their own pros and cons on cameras, in most of scenarios, I prefer the Sony as more realistic and better than the pixel 5 with huge amount of detail, but in some rare scenarios say taking a photo through a dark room window, and the darkest (room) and the brightest bits (Sun) could be slightly better with the pixel 5, where you can find a little bit of more details. The review is very much biased.
This guy is fake as it comes lol. I tried both phones and the Sony is by far the better...he is using the regular auto mode lol..he don't want to use the photo pro and if he did, he probably messed it up on purpose lol...i wonder how much google paid him lol
Photo Pro, just another bullshit marketing from Sony Xperia )))
Most of people use their phone on auto mode,if you need to grab a quick photo you don't start to tweak settings on pro mode
do you know how to turn it on the front camera mirror on?
Xperia 5ii rear camera is really awesome but its selfie camera is not good as pixel selfie camera
Both front and read are bad. Sony Xperia is bad flagship i ever see compared to other flagship
This phone isn't meant to me a pixel or iphone. It's meant to be used with the pro app. Not for the average consumer .
Exactly. The auto mode on the Photo Pro app is actually not bad. The photos and videos are meant to be shot and taken manually.
Well sorry guys, tech channels on CZcams are for "the average consumers" which are like 99% of all consumers so Sony is still gonna get benched
I believe Sony made a mistake here. They should have went for point-and-click for average consumers and have a pro app for pros. Also they overdone a bit by trying to make auto point-and-click to have super natural colors.
I have the 5 II, as evident from the video, there is barely any post-processing, that we are used to seeing, to bring out the details and fix the dynamic range. The philosophy is that you're meant to do the post-processing yourself. The standard camera app sets the dials automatically, based on some predetermined conditions and parameters, just to get you consistent performance between any scenario. You either use the camera button to focus with half press and full press to take the photo. The software button automates the 2 step process. You have to be steady in shots with less light, tho... gets blurry with shaky hands.
Imo Sony should have done a double approach: keep the Pro apps as is and let the normal app do post-processing automatically, like everybody else does.
Because unless you've got the muscle memory and photography theory knowledge , you can't do quick shots, which is not convenient for everyday activities.
Compared to the other flagships, the Xperia phones lack the convenience of the others for regular every day ease of use.
did you use the pro camera and video modes on the 5ii ..if you didnt then this test is moot. Sony camera is for foto enthusiasts not point and shoot. It amazes me that most reviewers use the stock camera ap in the Sony and call it a comparison.
Then you'd have to use raw on both phones and would be surprised by the result (noisy raw vs denoised raw).
@@seventysevencats why raw? Procamera or pro Cinema don't have to shoot raw. The problem is that people don't take the time to use a less popular brand at what's it's good at and put it up against a camera that is known for brain dead point and shoot with no user input. You can like what you like that's fine but you showed 50% of what the 5ii was capable of. Btw I don't have a dog in this fight and I'm not a Sony fanboy. In fact I've owned google phones since the Nexus 1
This whole test is fake and makes no sense...why not use the app that's made for the camera ...
@@seventysevencats raw will look bad on over processed ..Sony raw would come out way better..u can't correct raw imagine that was over processed lol
I prefer the natural & cinematic look of the Xperia. That selfie camera is balls though (but i don't really care about that)
🤣😂
Xperia 5ii photos look cool tone at the same time pixel 5 photos little bit warm tone but it's look natural.
You always come with great videos..treat to watch. Thanks for the review.
I appreciate that!
The Sony pic is overexposed.
I agree, they look like the exposure was just cranked up to compensate for quality
Because he doesn't know how to use the camera, I bet he only used stock auto camera lol...
Yes.. Because google has much better software algorithms and sony hasn't
@@The-Heart-Will-Testify dis he use anything other than auto mode on the Pixel though? No!
@@YgorCortes because pixel doesn't have it,that's why it uses auto filters lol...only looks great in phones but when u transfer to bigger screen for raw, it's hot mess...the sensor and everything is old...photo pro takes much better, the video is not even close, Sony shoot 4k 120fps. I used pixel 5, then traded for Xperia 5ii, much better phone...better display 120hz, better speakers, more powerful, especially in gaming...it's like an upgrade pixel...only thing pixel has better is front selfie, and is cheap...
This big gap is due to the fact that you have to shoot with Photo Pro in automatic mode and not with the regular app, Photo Pro shoots better even in automatic mode.
In that case, you would use computational raw and astrophotography on the Pixel 5 to make it fair.
I had tested this extensively. Basically the Photo Pro Auto mode actually produces the same output as regular cam app.
The Pixel 5 for sure. Just proves it's not just about the specs
The Xperia 5II supports being run on Google's camera software, so you have then better Hardware + the same software, in case of you prefer it.
But this phone is actually meant to be used in pro mode, with less processing.
And yes, the front camera of the 5ii and 1ii suck.
This guy never used the photo pro lol.. Sony is more than just a camera, compare everything else lol
Pixel 5 appears to be better, but editing photos in Snapseed and Lightroom will produce less artifacts in Sony photos, because Sony's photos are simply more natural. I'm an Xperia user and can relate to that. Pixel's photos are simply over-enhanced and difficult to edit when the phone's software over compensates for the lack of light.
That thumbnail photo looks terrible on Sony's side. Blown out and the sky is gray.
Ikr I've never seen a Sony device takes such overexposed pictures unless you intentionally want to do it.
Wow! Sony has better still camera mode and face recognition in image brightness processing. I also like the wider lens however when it comes to video mode, Pixel won the game especially in overall low light condition. That night scape Sony showed complete darkness in the sky but Pixel was in brighter yellowish from the lights. Pixel captured good details at night.
Arg, hard to choose though.
Btw, Sony won the clear voice recording.
Really nice samples!
That Sony ultrawide is certainly really nice, but other than that Pixel pretty much won in my eyes - even in video capture O.o
Sony wins. Pixel does better job in stabilization, portrait mode, and uses HDR more often than Sony, maybe even always do it, and it gives more details on video, but photos look flat. Sony does better job in colors and volume, so it makes me feel like I am inside of photo, and videos look cinematic. I prefer Sony. Even selfie camera is better, but I known that it is bad)
The pixel is the point and shoot champ...the Sony is for those that want to use the pro mode and tinker with photos...tho I wish it was slightly better at auto photos. Both great.
Actually, despite the point and touch approach, the Pixel 5 produces amasingly good and clean raw files (computational raw). Pretty good for editing.
Few will use it but it works well with apps like OpenCamera or F5-V (also they make exposing a bit tricky for long exposures).
This guy is gentleman.
To me not much diff, pix 5 just looks over exposed - sony gives natural real colours
Brother I guess you interchanged the phones with their respective photos.
@@mss5460 Nope - I don't want to look at false photos with false colours - Sony is colour accurate, need to stop living in a fake online world of instagram
Sony create camera sensors sure but .Sony meant to use manually not auto
Yeah all the result making pixel win because sony of the software. If use sony manually, it can kill any smartphone right now.
@@davie5077 not kill but will be very good indeed
I own a pixel 5, and I'm going to say, it's been a let down.
The camera is good because of software and the hardware is garbage, if you get one you'll realize this with just using the phone a couple times. The phone is touted for an amazing battery with the 765 snapdragon, however it is slow in processing. A lot of reviewers said, "you won't notice the difference" that is a lie. I had an xperia 5 and an s20fe. Both ran smoother and gave far better media consumption experiences. Battery saver mode on the phone is a joke because the phone becomes choppy as hell once it's activated.
If you get an Xperia 5 ii, it will demolish the pixel 5 in hardware, media consumption, and overall experience. I have the normal xperia 5 and I go back to it constantly now.
If you get the pixel, the point and shoot camera does a great job most of the time, but processor killed the quality of this phone. Software is amazing, but google like to be cheap and the speakers are garbage. I got the pixel 5 for 450 an I still feel like I got ripped off. An I enjoyed this phone quite a lot in the beginning, but you can't ignore the issues forever. Google's hardware is the main issue
I'm glad I came across this post. I've owned the Pixel 5 and Pixel 3XL. I loved my Pixel 3XL, until the speakers on it, and speakerphone (on my wife's and mine) went out and we couldn't use them. I just want a really good phone again that does well, is fun to have, and is enjoyable. I'll miss the point and shoot abilities, but the day to day has really, really sucked for me and my wife. Constantly drops calls (on Verizon, in and near cities) and cuts it's own data off. Oh, and overheats and cuts off when taking videos. Honestly, the last phone I loved was my Moto Z Play. I don't know why, it was so simple a phone and it was easy to use. It was a beauty of a phone, but the camera was awful. I can't stand Samsung's and refuse Apple, so I am really wanting to try the Experia ii. Thanks again for writing about this and I hope my information helps someone else.
Sony have a lot of catching up to do on post processing. I considered getting the Xperia 5ii because there is a whole lot to like but happy with my choice of pixel 5.
Great Content as always nick, would be interesting to see if the Xperia 5ii gets a stable gcam and what the results it could achieve 👍
Better it would be that instead of unofficial gcam they could just work on their own post processing algorithms. They have everything. They own hardware, and they did great job with their own great pro app. But it misses the average consumer, unfortunately.
Or he could use the photo pro lol, it's better than gcam by far
The pixel has more pleasing exposure but at night the noise is very bad compared to the Xperia.
Hi, good review with many comparison pictures and videos. i only have one question, was the Camera/Cinema Pro app used on the xperia 5ii or the standard camera app?
In other reviews it was said that with the standard camera app the pictures are not so good. Only with the Camera pro app you get good to very good photos. It's just not a smartphone to quickly take a picture, but more like a DSLR camera. you have to take your time for the right settings.
This guy did a really good job on this video. Well done!
In my opinion I feel like the pixel won in every one of your picture comparisons.
Yeah Sony washy at best
Duh because he never used photo pro lol
Have you tried gcam on the Xperia 5 ii? (if there is a working mod out there...) And do you prefer the Xperia or S20 FE?
Only the main camera has Camera2 API enabled I think and even then I don't think anything has been tweaked and released for it
If you shoot auto mode , it's the FE
@@kobirulali1717 Thanks for your reply. I am tempted to test the Xperia, would have been a nice to have a gcam mod as an option.
@@johr7 Thanks John! I am just drawn to the Xperia more, but camera is important for me and I have no experience in manual modes.
GCam mod pretty much non existent on Xperia phones regardless of model. And that's the problem because Sony refuses to implement computational photography even for Full Auto mode.
Sony on a lot of the night shots makes the blacks look black and no fragments in the night sky. Also the white tones on sony were spot on more then the pixal in most of the shots. Day shot were almost identical but there were some blow outs of the sky. All done on auto mode which if any of you have had a sony you would know that this is a major improvement on the auto mode side of things. Pixal is a amazing camera phone . But they never upgraded the cameras from the 4 they just refined it evan more. If you are a person willing to take your time to find the perfect photo then use pro mode or a actual camera.. If you are walking around and want to get that shot real quick then go with the pixal or iphone or the samsung or evan lg v series. All give you amazing photos . If you are a selfie camera person don't buy the sony or the v series.
Thank you for this video this was exactly what I wanted to see . The night shots. Excellent 👌
Using manual HDR improves the dynamic range of Xperia 5 II because the scene backlight from auto mode isn't always activated
awesome comparisions, love from india, i just come to know about camera of phones just from you!
Same 👌👌👌👌👌
which is more natural in skin tone?
5:24 mortal vs ghost 👻
@@tpad6 this is selfie....
@@Zoralovsky oh wel Sony's back camera still looks over exposed
Sony Xperia 5 II is made to shoot in manual mode against pixel that can only shoot auto
@@adrianstrozier You know ... there are other apps that can be used to take a photo and are not preloaded on a device.
Every phone can have "manual" settings.
But I find it quite weird that ZV-1 or DSC-RX have usually pretty damn good auto, but a phone with so much more processing power can't deliver similar results (I do not mean in pure image, pixel quality) - but white balance, focus, exposure, details etc.
Thankyou for this useful video. I personally found out tht the selfie is the only thing thr gonna makes me stay with pixel. Everything else,, sony neil it. I like how real it is with sony. Im actually bias for pixel but this video has makes me a sony fan. But i thnk ill wait for another updates till i switch my phone. I mean sony could fix their selfie. They looks like oppo whitewash. Btw, im still rock with pixel2xl.
Yah pixel 2xl here too
Pixel 3 here 😎
google pixel is very good at night. but i ask myself if it is realistic at night? is it the same what you see with your bare eyes or is it like a night vision that is on?
Why not mention that the xperia can do 4k 120fps video?
It's against his video policy lol, never tested the fast moving object too or even used the photo pro that was made for the phone...this guy's is paid by google lol
@@The-Heart-Will-Testify literally nothing about the phone was shown lol
@@DingDongDrift I still don't understand the motive behind it lol...is like using snapchat camera on pixel and making comparison to iphone 12 main camera app lol...this had to be the dumbest review ...
Xperia 1 ii is for mobile photography enthusiast. You can fully control the settings in pro mode. That's what this phone is for
Maybe it's my eyes, but I feel in most shots, the Sony is the better image. Pixel is overly processed, or colourised. The night shots look towards day, that's not natural. The Sony front cam is trash. Did you use the camera app or the pro app, because there are major differences between them.
Ususal sony fanboys with a lot of excuses 😴
@@anonymoustroll1549 I don't own a Sony anything. Literally. I have a Samsung phone twat.
@@DrFurb then watch the video carefully. Pixel is over processed, yeah but the sony too isn't doing anything great. The image processing on sony seems to be stuck on 2015 whereas the hardware on the pixel seems to be stuck on 2015. And the front cam on the sony is trash all around. So in conclusion nono of them is doing great but the pixel still edges out the sony with superior processing. Saying sony looks better is kinda what a fan would say.
@@anonymoustroll1549 The Xperia 5II supports Googles camera software algorithm if you wanna missuse the Sony as Point and shoot.
I have a Motorola one zoom that also supports it and this is already beating the Pixel 5, just because it has slightly better hardware.
@@fa14bi-78 then make a video about it. Don't just talk in the air. Until then my point still stands that sony is trash.
I underestimated that Xperia 5ii has a bad selfie cuz Sony just didn't care about it but why would you use a selfie sample as thumbnail? Xperia 5ii still far superior when it comes to rear cameras.
All the Sony pics are either too dark or overblown, and the OIS is just not up to par. The Pixel 5 wins despite its "inferior" (read: better utilized) hardware.
Thanks, Nick. The Pixel 5 edges it, in my opinion, especially in night shots where there is much more shadow detail. I'm happy to have my choice reinforced of a recently purchased Pixel 4a 5g (same camera as the 5). My only issue with it is the lack of manual white balance, which means that interior shots under LED lighting (warm white) result in captures which are too cool, and often need editing to correct.
7:59 that's the difference between the two, sony looking more dramatic and natural pixel looking more punchy and more pleasing to the eye, you can make a neutral photo to look like pixel, but can't undo the post processing on pixel to make it look like sony, so if you want your photos to always look ready and pleasing pixel is for you ,if you want to be creative and be the judge to how your photo should come out like sony is for you, both are great in their own way
Hi nice video! Have you used the standard camera app or the Photo Pro app on the Xperia?
I thought Xperia phones have HDR video built-in?
They have, but he didn't activate it (Since it's only in Video pro)
Photos go with the pixel for selfie, normal and 3x crop zoom, for wide angle, go with the 5mkii and video as well as it looks more detailed than the pixel even though it's not as bright In my opinion
Pixel managed to strike a balance between brightness and noise reduction in low-light video shooting.
Xperia did a better job in zooming, thanks to the fundamental difference in hardware, which is expected.
Sony makes the camera sensors for every company
It's not mean sony cameras are better than others.. Clear result is here
Hi. Might I ask comparing the Xperia 5ii and the OnePlus 8T which one has better performance overall, louder speakers, better Battery life and overall better front & rear camera systems in terms of dynamic range, clearer audio when recording video, more warmer, more natural colours ,wider field of view in selfies (& rear cameras) ,less noise with zooming in and better low light photos?
Me personally liked some of the Sony shots more. Stuff like Sony's eye AF, 20 FPS shooting, superior slow mo and 4K capabilities...plus pro camera / video apps would be enough to win me over.
If I were a point and shoot kinda guy I'd probably choose the Pixel but I prefer controlling how I want my pics to look. I'm pretty confident I could take the same if not better shots with the Xperia albeit with a little more effort...tho I wouldn't even use that selfie camera 😂
The Pixel 5 also does 4K filming, has full support for camera2api, so works very well with apps like OpenCamera for manual mode with bracketing and stuff. Slowmo isn't anything special though and I do like some shots on the Sony here, especially the Sunset.
I'm too not too happy with the point and touch approach of Google (copying Apple?) but their computational raw gives some of best results in post (Lightroom/Photoshop), with image properly denoised (luma and chroma denoiser included in the computational raw). If we could get a more natural raw while keeping the noise removal, that would be perfect.
That made me get a Pixel 5 but in the end, although I like it a lot (and even if it's a bit slow at time), the camera hardware pale compared to the Note 20 Ultra, which has Gcam versions that work OK (not perfect) - 7.3 from Urnyx.
So for now I'm back to the Note 20 Ultra with Gcam. I just miss the astrophotography mode that doesn't work on the Samsung.
The Sony looks over exposed to me. Can that be toned down? I usually shoot my cameras, and on my Sony XZ2 compact -1/3 to -1 because photos exposed at 0 are too blown out for me.
You can use the photopro app where you can control the exposure value or shutter speed. You can even set the ISO.
The sony has very good exposure let's not forget that we don't know how it actually looks out there and computational photography usually always is punchy or oversharpened to be pleasing to the eye but it isn't natural or close to what it looks in real life. One area it has poor exposure is in the selfie cam . mostly everything on video or camera pro app is customizable if you want something to look closer to what your eye sees which for me is almost always spot on
Sony has poor dynamic range, wonder why they haven't figured it out but dynamic range matters a lot in both photos and videos.
The most important comparison... Sony NOT made in China
Its more manual vs automatic. Wich google wins on automatic
Sony's dynamic range is really bad here. Can it do better? If it can't then the manual is useless imo
I think both cameras had misses. Sony's telephoto shots seemed off, Pixel 5 really good But I liked Sonys colors better in most situations. Night pics and video better for Sony too. I own pixel2 and love it. Not sure what I'll upgrade to.
Question! Sony's photos at @ 2:20 and 3:54 is really blown out with the sky basically being completely colourless. Does it's camera not have ANY exposure correction like the Pixel 5 or iPhone? Do you know if the Xperia 5iii has fixed this? Thanks!!!
In most of your photos, I think the Pixel 5 did a better job, but that is because the Xperia 5 II is targeted at a more professional demographic (those who like to shoot in manual mode). Most of the photos in this video from the Xperia were over exposed, however you can probably set the exposure manually on that phone, unlike on the Pixel (which has basically no camera options)
Show some greatness of sony's photo pro app in comparison with iPhone 12pro max
The Xperia 5ii is very good with the rear cameras. The ultrawide camera is excellent. It's just disappointing that they didn't put a better quality front camera on it!
Xperia is more like DSLR. I don't actually hate it. It's not that bad.
I see the xperia camera is still as bright as ever
The camera of Sony Is Same to a flagship Like S22 or Iphone 13 But the main problem here is Software. If you are about To put Pixel rom in sony Xperia it will give you much better photos i think but still Without the pixel rom it still have such Classy details in every pic and since Google pixel is only for camera you can get way better gaming and features in sony so yeah it is a good phone
Any idea why the Pixel 5 has a 16mp wide angle sensor but outputs the image at 12.2mp?
It does 16.2mp in raw on the wide angle. But you're right, only 12.2 in jpeg (something few people notice or mention).
I think xperia’s selfie camera is very bad, but the video is better than pixel5. Sometimes the photo is better than the pixel and sometimes the pixel is better.
How many photo on Sony it can take in one charged? Just want to get some idea.thx
I feel like the only good thing about Xperia 5 ii is that it has a better video quality in 4k30fps more then pixel5, for me though, what do you guys think?
Jeez, the Sony pictures don't have white balance down. At the same time, I'm assuming you did everything in auto. Try lining up each photo the way you would do in real. Unless that's how you use it. I'm picky with my photos though. i make sure lighting is done before pressing _shoot._
It's a mixed bag from both phones to my opinion. Lack of computational photography /HDR / proper photo post-processing leads to very bad dynamic range and blown out highlights on Xperia 5 II. And that's very sad result for a nearly $1000 camera-focused flagship phone. I really like Xperia 5 II and I wish it was a bit like a Pixel in terms of camera system performance. Night shots without Night mode are remarkably good on Xperia. Selfie camera is rather a piece of junk there though.
After rate conversion, Pixel 5 is $880 in my country. Guess I'll have to wait more.
It's ridiculous, not worth it
Как заядлый фотоман и любитель добиться правды, я ставил плюсик за каждую фотографию сони и пикселю. Не все используют селфи камеру как камеру для фоток в соц сети или на память, ее я взял в расчет отдельно. Оценивал абсолютно честно пиксель разнес в пух и прах по селфи камере конечно, сони стыд. По видео сони заметно меньше склеек и битых частей кадра. По фото сони с неплохим отрывом обходит но не критично. Жаль что новым сони место на мусорке, в сравнении со старыми они снимают хуже. Всем добра и объективной оценки!
Are u sure the beauty mode isn't on with the Sony phone?
Google pixel 5❤️
Yeah, Sony is way behind when it comes to image processing.
@@phandroid they aren't even running that race. Wish they were
@@phandroid You should also test its auto focus because this is what this camera is made for especially with candid shots and unpredictable moving subjects using its Photopro app. The rest of the phones use computational photography to improve overall image quality but Sony puts those computational power in its auto focus system.
I'll definitely go with Pixel.
Ive still yet to see a better camera phone than the Pixel. Iphone pro max 11 is the only close competitor.
If he used the photo pro, Sony wins easily but this video was biased..xperia 5ii has the better camera
Overall the pixel phone seams to do better for dynamic range, detail & lens quality most noticeable in low light shots.
How about video stabilization and quALITY?
It looks like Sony give the operator more control to make great photos via the app and post production. Where Google give more control to their software to do it. So I reckon if have the time to play with settings/editing, Sony would be better. Or if you really wanna good point and shoot camera, then Pixel would be better
what it seems:
daytime: Xperia
lowlight: Pixel
Awesome video! Thank you so much for this 🙏
Now I really really really don't understand how Sony is able to suck so incredibly bad when it comes to smartphone cameras. This is mind-blowingly disappointing 😰
I agree, I wonder the same thing. & I'm a proud owner of the xperia 1ii, just not proud about the camera performance, but the rest of the phone is fine.
Better Wide and Zoom in the Sony but Pixel wins in the other modes in my opinion
My favourite is sony xperia II .
Google is using the old hardware (camera) only the software is new.
But sony is bringing new hardware and it feels good to have sony Mobil e.
Does not really matter that the hardware is new if the software is junk. - Ex xperia user
@@imbaZarkout The 5ii supports Googles software algorithm.
-Better Hardware, same software.
except for the front facing camera, that thing is trash anyway.
Again a good video Nick ! Knew before watching that the Pixel 5 would have won in all criterias 😉
Pixel 5 by domination
Pixel has more dynamic range, natural feel, lowlight performance.
Sony oversharpens, overexposes, unnecessarily smoothes skin, but captures more detail (on rear camera).
Had the 5ii, returned it because the default camera was just grim for someone coming from a 2 year old Huawei flagship. Apparently you have to use the two Pro apps to get the most out of it - which is just bullshxt for maybe 95% of users. Even Sony on their cameras know that you keep selection to one level through the dial, and they masterminded modes like "superior auto" that literally brings all the technical functionality of the camera to bear for the benefit of the consumer. First they were using inferior sensors to the ones they were supplying other manufacturers, and now their lack of investment in computational chops is showing.
Get a real camera lol..phone is more than just auto mode camera lol. Compare display and more
@@The-Heart-Will-Testify Exactly agreed. I've got real cameras, P&S and enthusiast, digital and film and instant, I shoot P, A, S and M dependent on conditions lol. The Sony just fell short - It's not for Enthusiasts, it's for Sony Enthusiasts. Understandably Sony is not trying to gain marketshare, but Adding barriers to creating great shots is mind boggling - Others can manage it, Sony has knowhow, they're just not applying it. And yes the phone is just more than the camera - Despite Sony's HUGE AV legacy the screen is no more WOW than other flagships; the audio falls short of my 2 year old Huawei Mate 20 Pro (it was oddly most competitive through bluetooth). I so wanted to love this phone, it's just behind the curve on other phones in the same price range.
What's that green house made of?
Can't beat the Pixel it wins hands down yet again! 👌🏻👍🏻 🙂 UK
I prefer the Sony, especially in low light. Pixel just looks like is cranking up the ISO. 7:11
Please stop smoking crack.
@@BrooklynDoge he is not lying, those night shots look fake n horrible , the sky is not bright grey at night lol. Those night shots don't look good..maybe I need to smoke crack to see it lol
It actually does that. If you use EV compensation in low light, it only affects ISO and never the shutter speed. On the normal mode, it then gets very noisy. The night mode cleans this up (and the astrophotography mode even more).
The Xperia is really not bad but in the case of photography there are not many that can beat the Pixel 5. But the Xperia is really very good, there is progress
The thumbnail of the Sony one is awful 😂 looks filtered and fake as hell
Pixel wins again✌️
The noise contest? Sure
i honestly couldnt say which one here. there were duds on each phone and and both had better shots in some situations. if you only use the selfie camera then yea the pixel definitely wins
Sony’s auto mode sucks, I wouldn’t have time for pro mode. I prefer pixel but it over processes especially front camera and it’s camera doesn’t age well since is software. Falls apart after it stops getting updates
wow see how this telephoto struggles vs pixel digital superres zoom!? :) especially in low light!
How bad is xperia video performance compare to pixel
Great video.
I love this music and video comparison😍
Terrible comment.
Sony xperia 👍🔥🔥
Which is best
