Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Huawei Mate 10 Pro vs Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Camera Test Comparison”.
What’S up guys and today, we’ve got a video which I think is gon na really surprise. You we’ve got the brand new Huawei mate 10 Pro, which is the same camera as the Huawei mate 10, and on paper this phone has possibly the most capable camera we’ve ever seen on a smartphone. So in this article we’re pitching it head-to-head against the Samsung Galaxy. Note 8 considered by many to be the king of Android smartphone cameras. Let’S get right into it, starting off with video, both phones record 4k resolution at 30 frames per second, which is pretty standard for a 20-17 flagship.
Now, because this is such a high resolution, what I’ve done is cropped into both video files by one point seven times so it’ll help to highlight the imperfections, so you can really tell the difference between the two. The first thing, you’re, probably going to notice, is the slight difference in color profiles, whereas the note 8 on the right has a slightly more natural look and look they’re, perhaps slightly more reflects, while we’re actually seeing with our eyes. The mate 10 has been a little bit more color corrected. It has a slightly deeper slightly darker set of colors, which, to be honest, is not a bad thing in some scenarios actually adds an extra layer of definition which the notate lacks, and so in some shots, even though they have the same resolution that mate 10 footage Can actually look a little bit sharper? One really interesting, and quite subtle thing to notice, though, is that on the surface, whilst the mate 10 looks sharper, examining a lot of this footage close-up, you realize the note 8 is actually preserving a little bit more detail. If we examine the fountains, we can see that in the process of increasing the definition, the mate tennis lost a little bit of the texture and again when we try v2 times lossless zoom, whilst the mate 10.
If you look from further away, does look like the better image, it’s actually the note 8, which is capturing just a little bit more if we rarely zoomed into both of these, the note 8 would remain clearer for longer when it comes to image stabilization. The note 8 has dual optical image: stabilisation, whereas the mate 10, a single and the note 8 pulls well ahead. Every time you take a step, whereas, with the note 8, it’s almost difficult to tell with the mate 10 it’s causing a pretty serious problem.
So now we’re gon na move on to photos and in this category at least on paper, the mate 10 is the far more capable smartphone. Whereas on the Galaxy Note 8, both cameras have a resolution of 1200 pixels. On the mate 10. We’Ve got one 12 megapixel RGB sensor, combined with a 20 megapixel monochrome, one on top of that in terms of its apertures. That mate 10 is on a whole new level, entirely we’ll get onto that in just a moment. On a bit of a side note, if you are enjoying the video, it would mean so much to me if you could smash that subscribe button in terms of just straight-up raw levels of detail that make ten does take this fight in almost every flat photo taken Of simple textures the mate ten images will just look a little bit crisper and a little bit sharper and if you zoom well into them, the note eight loses its definition a little bit faster.
Now, as we also notice when it came to video playback in terms of photos that mate 10 just has much deeper colors and it’s not necessarily a good or a bad thing, the note 8 is definitely a more true-to-life reflection of what we’re seeing, but they mate. 10 is not really far off and at the same time some people would look at it and think that that image looks better when it comes to high dynamic range. The note 8 is a clear winner. Even with the Sun streaming into this shot, you can still see that a lot of the grass and the greenery in the background is still well lit to the mate.
10 is also a little bit less consistent. As you can see here, the gravel probably looks a little bit better on the mate 10, but in terms of the sky, it has completely destroyed the light two areas when it comes to camera aperture that mate 10 has a pretty serious advantage here. In fact, it is the first smartphone ever to have F 1.6 apertures on both its dual lenses, that compares to an F 1.7 and an F 2.4 on the note 8, and this is a couple of useful implications when you’re shooting, through your normal camera, auto mode That mate 10 will get just a little bit more bokeh in the shot, as you can see, when you’re focusing on something close, the background is just a tiny bit more blurred out. The wider aperture should also mean that mate 10 is far better at coping with lower lighting conditions and it’s a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to this, because the first thing, a probably gon na notice, is that the mate 10 has far darker photos.
What seems to be happening here when you shoot photos in the automatic mode is the mate 10 is drastically reducing its exposure in order to hide the amount of noise in the shot. Even so, it’s quite easy to tell that the mate 10 is suffering less from this low lighting or, as the note 8 becomes a bit of a blurry mess that mate 10 does still retain some level of definition. Now we’ve got the phone’s portrait modes and it’s a bit of a difficult one to compare, because they both go about it in a totally different way. The way the no takers about it uses the phone’s telephoto lens and requires you to zoom into your photo.
So the phone won’t even let you operate this feature unless you zoom all the way in which makes it a little bit more difficult in some usage scenarios. On top of that, to actually achieve the note, 8 shot, it’s a little bit more fiddly you to be almost exactly 1.2 meters away from the subject, whereas the mate tends is pretty much as simple as opening the app hitting the button and taking a photo. Having said that, when you do get it right, the no tape just looks miles better.
The bokeh is much more natural and the edge detection is a world apart. Both of these smartphones also have 8 megapixel front cameras and, whilst the no tape one does have a wider aperture, the colors, in the contrast of the mate 10 automatically adds actually leads it to often have a better image, even with some quite severe backlighting. The mate tan just has a little bit more definition.
The darks are a little bit darker. The lights are a little bit lighter, but again, as we noticed with the rear cameras that make tense color profiles, whilst they look nice from a distance do result in a little bit of loss of detail. Just take a look behind me at the leaves both a Galaxy Note 8 and the huawei mate 10 support lossless zoom as I stuff to say, which one does a better job, both of them zoom in the same amount and also there’s a negligible loss of detail. You really can’t tell the difference now, as we start to bring this comparison to a conclusion. There are a few miscellaneous points worth mentioning. As you know, both phones have a dual camera, but with the Huawei mate 10.
The secondary camera here is a monochrome sensor and, to be honest, whilst real purists will swear by this feature, whilst they’ll say it’s completely different to just putting a black and white filter on a color photo, the average consumer is going to find it very tough. To tell the difference what I think is in most cases, a more useful combination is what the note 8 has. We have a combination of a wide-angle lens as well as a telephoto on, and what this implies is that every time you take a photo, you can change the settings so that the note 8 actually captures 1, which is far more zoomed in using the telephoto and One which gets a lot of the scenery around you using the wide angle – and this brings us to the question which smartphone actually has the better camera and for the most part, I’m gon na say.
The answer is the Galaxy Note: 8. It has more natural colors, a higher level of detail and a better live focus mode, and when we compare the two phones side-by-side in terms of their optical image stabilization, the note 8 is on a whole new playing field on the flipside. The mate tone has some quite significant redeeming characteristics.
It’S wider aperture means that when it comes to low lighting conditions, which one of the main problems when it comes to smartphone photography, Italy tackles it quite a bit better. Another thing to think about is other note. 8. Has now been out for a couple of months and in that time, through updates, has gotten quite a bit better when the phone originally launched there wasn’t as polished and experienced as it is now expecting a similar sort of level of improvement with the mate 10, and They could very well be a little bit more on par given a couple of months time and the final thought really to round it.
All off is don’t forget the mate tan and the mate 10 Pro are quite a bit cheaper than the Galaxy Note 8, which can’t be found for much cheaper than $ 1,000 anyway, guys thanks a lot for watching, and it would mean so much to me if You could subscribe to the website, but, having said I used to use the boss and I’m signing out [ Applause, ] [ Applause, ] .
