Marco M, 05 Nov 2019Right, the pixel 4 who didn't even allow studio comparisons... moreErrr Mate 30 Pro zoom lens downgrade from P30 Pro that has 125mm lenght.
Nevertheless, the image quality looks quite natural, not heavily processed (except maybe a bit on foliage rendition) surprisingly its from a china phone.
Just ditch those low res macro lens, using ultra wide angle as macro is way way better (Mate 20, P30, Oneplus 7t).
But yeah, as always, DxO explanation on its pros & cons is spot on from what my eyes sees. The final score number is just bragging rights.

I just hope this camera setup gets transferred to a flagship model without notch and without curved edges on the screen.

Anonymous, 05 Nov 2019The night shots on this phone have zero details. The daylig... moreRight, the pixel 4 who didn't even allow studio comparisons here at gsmarena. iphone 11 pro still with very noticeable noise and loss of color in low light, though much better than previously. Still not up there among the best.
Both Google and Apple uses old and tiny 1/2.55" sensors, and the iphone is also limited by its max aperture of f/1.8. Hopefully they will bring their die hard fans modern hardware next year.
Just in case you didn't realize it yet, this phone's biggest sensor is nearly four times larger than the ones in pixel and iphone. Each pixel in its 27MP mode is larger (1.6µm) than iphone and pixel's 1.4µm in only 12MP.
No to mention that massive 93mm equivalent zoom lens. So neither the iphone nor the pixel can take anywhere close to the same zoom shots, it will just be some pixelated mess. Even the, until now, zoom king Mate 30 Pro is beaten in that area.
On the main camera you get so much more details with this camera than iphone and pixels. It really isn't fair comparing late 2019 (mainstream 2020) HW with 2017 HW, but that's not Xiaomi's fault. Blame apple and google for being so cheap with their users.

I just examined the images, and I'm not impressed. The images are soft and resolved detail is less than what you would expect out of a 27MP image. Also, foliage rendition is mediocre at best.
But since this phone is a midranger, I'll give it a thumbs up anyway. That is not to say I agree with Dxomark's BS.

I just realised that this phone has a OIS on its MAIN camera. Seriously, that's a huge wow factor for me. I wish it had one for its 2x telephoto lens as well, but if you consider the price of this phone the camera specs are absolutely impressive.
The actual image quality seems to be very good as well, better than I thought, though it's clear that they needed to make a compromise in lens quality to fit such a large sensor and OIS into this relatively thin body. Corner to corner sharpness isn't excellent, but again, for the price you can't really complain.
Overall very solid performance by Xiaomi, but the best thing about this phone is that it uses Snapdragon SoC, which means you can use gcam on it. In that case Pixel 4 simply won't stand a chance due to the sensor size difference being way too large for any image processing to overcome.

Is this just Samsung showing to Huawei that we do offer better cameras than you,so just watch Huawei come back with a much better camera in 2020,Samsung always seem to advertise the products the wrong way,then the others improve there products and Samsung then seem to lose out

Anonymous, 05 Nov 2019How do you know that this phone has a bad camera?Because that user always posts crap about Xiaomi. Generally speaking non of it is worth taking seriously. Anyone here can go to dxomark and check the results and comparisons. This phone takes great photos, and video.

With the pureview at least they had class leading sensors to work with. Iphone have had the same mainstream sensors by Sony, but less impressive software than its competitors. Stay tuned for the 11 Pro's results on dxomark on the 7th :-)

I hope you realize you still have to have a steady hand on the 11 Pro for night shots, it's just that you have to hold it steady before, rather than after, the shot is taken.

No matter which camp one is fanboy in, most people agree that the Hauwei flagships take the best shots.

You don't even have to look at the main subject, the wacth. Just look at the "petals" and grapes on the sides. They are mushy on the Huawei and clear on the Xiaomi.
There is so much more details in the shots on the Xiaomi.
The Louvre night shots are the same, and so is that other daylight outside that ceramique museum. In full size you dont' get the same level og details and there are loads of jaggies on the Huawei.
Xiaomi still has things to improve, like blown out skies, focus etc, but generally speaking there isn't anything unjustified here. Well apart from the false accusations from Berserkers like you.

Your Pixel's camera setup is quite limited compared to this device.
Pixel 4 was a disappointment, as they are still milking that tiny 1/2.55" sensor.

I never believed in paying for a higher score, but now?
Definitely not legit anymore.
