Look at the sky against the blue tower picture. The camera matched the sky and the tower on S9. iPhone pictures have much better dynamic range, accurate colors, sharpness.Even the low light pictures (where the S9 should truly win) aren’t much better on the S9. (Variable aperture is a joke). Let’s do a comparison when the new iPhones come out in September. This is S9 vs last years iphone.

            just because of brand, apple will be favoured ,, but if u know the true meaning of a flagship, a champion, a performer you won't doubt the s9's ability to degrade the x

              AnonD-747032, 24 Mar 2018I don't get it ..it's the exact opposite ... the iphone pho... moreU wont get it..its the prob with icrap users..anythn other than apple looks bad..lags..takes bad pics n is shi**y..but their fone rocks regardless of blown out backgrounds..clouds..low/mono audio in vid rec..battery etc. this is common even among youtubers as well..they blindly/deliberately do it altho
              Comparing em clearly shows actual result.

              Funny how these dumbs r always fooled by igimmicks worth a fortune with less practical features/usability

                          Every one knows that the google pixl 2 xl cant even stand with the iphone x and samsung galaxy s9+ in almost any field especially camera. However the Samsung Galaxy S9+ has a better camera than the iPhone x for its ability to shift between 2 states for having a better lightning. But now things had changed, and a new phone had taken the trophy of best camera ever which is the Huawei p20 pro with a triple cameras it crushes all cell phones in this cell phones in this field.

                              Whackcar, 27 Mar 2018Just the fact that you think DXOmark is a reputable source ... moreHowever the pointstill stands true. Regardless of their not so great source.
                              The pixel was never the king to begin with. Just good dynamic range.
                              The s9 takes much better quality and more realistic pictures than the pixel. Same against many other phones. Like even more so in the case of the iPhone here.

                              The pixel uses more heavily sharpened photos with a large contrast prop to be more appealing to the crowd. But it doesn't match the actually actually output the s9 is in comparison. And you could easily just change the colors and contrast in the settings ofthe much more intuitive and features app on the galaxy
