Oh yeahhhh suddenly groups of people believe in DxOmark. Previously they said its bias/paid when Huawei took the crown for a long time....but hats off Samsung & Pixel, they manage to tackle a small 1/2.55 camera sensor to competes with other bigger camera sensor. Thats a hard work on the software camera algorithm for sure. But as for me, Mate 20 Pro still got the advantage.

No worries, this is just for a short time, P30 is coming.

    The DXO Mark review is with the Beta version that Does Not have HDR video yet. With HDR video I expect it to beat the Xiaomi Mi9 which seems to have the top rated video right now.

    "The S10+ maintains good target exposure for video across all light levels, thereby achieving better low-light exposures than some competitors—for example, the iPhone XS Max, although the XS Max delivers better dynamic range, thanks to its video HDR. This said, for a non-HDR video mode, the S10+ offers very good dynamic range."

    Once Samsung implements HDR10+ for video, I am guessing it should top the charts for both photo AND video.

                              A i think except recording abilities in wide and tele lens nothing is very different between s10 and note9 and since the dxo actually doesn't test the ultra wide cam then if this score was real the s10 would get just a score lil better than note9
                              B look at the DXO photos in s10 review the photos ain't complect and in zoom test the mate 20 pro is really really better than s10 but this phone has gotten near score as mate i think this score is not real

                                        DxOmark didnt go bankrupt?! i have seeing some news a time ago saying they dont have money to go with that...but they keep doing this...

                                        thats how true are discovered, so, if they have money and didnt go bankrupt, this means brands are paying to it to say good for the devices and then keep this lie alive...oh well, nobody trust DxO more...so, whatever.
