Thanks for the hands on. But the photos are crappy.
You will notice, the 108mp sensor's photos are clearly ahead of the rest of the videoish sensors. They would have been better off using the 1080mp sensors image for everything and use digital zoom in that, plus optical zoom. No wonder the camera didn't score more.
This is pricey. You get 855 units for that price, which people are attempting to get 8k with in freedcam's video configuration editor. Does this get 6k, 8k, or 12k video in freedcam? It charges like it does.
That Samsung sensor is the sort of mobile sensor I have been waiting for, but it is not mature, no 8k mode here, no 6k mode, it should even be able to do a 12k mode, and do quality video compression on the chip stack itself. But nothing. Maybe the new version of 108mp for the s11 will do some of that, and closer to 20 stop dynamic range?
Now the existing 108mp great job Samsung. We wait for 200mp 1 inch version. :) (16k downscaled to 8k quadbayer pixels).

Dude , 05 Nov 2019That's all fine and dandy but am I the only who is disappoi... moreNo, you're not the only one. Not sure if it's either the sensor itself or Xiaomi's processing but the 27MP images come nowhere close to 27MP detail. I'd rather have something like a 16MP 1/1.33" sensor with variable aperture (1.5-2.4) instead of an effectively 27MP 1/1.33" sensor with questionable detail levels. If the rumors are true I want to see how Samsung's processing handles a 108MP sensor, I'd assume Samsung would resolve more detail and bring higher dynamic range to the table among other things

Just need a regular single lens camera at the back with flash...this is all that most people need. Also a lot of users don't play games on phones.
So there's really no need to have fancy full camera or high gaming capacity on all phones.

Camera is kind of disappointing. Some of the images look like ones I shot with my Xperia Z back in 2012.

If the processing gets (worthy) update, results should be way better. Hw is great, even 2x tele camera got flagship worthy specs of f2, 1.4um pixels.

Just looked at sample images from a different review and the skin smoothing of the main camera in not good light conditions is really terrible. Looks like oil painting indeed.
In good light conditions the 50mm camera and 92mm camera oversharpen a lot.

Although the camera hardware captures a lot of light, the low light noise reduction in the default mode is quite bad even when downsampled to 12 megapixels.

I like the approach of providing high end camera in mid tier devices like this. Lots of people don't play games that much but use the phone as their main Camera and they can get this now without paying the premium for top notch internal components. For casual gaming and works, SD730G is a solid choice.

A lot of noisebut detail is lackluster, sharpening halos (but pictures are still soft) and i don't know what they are using instead of post processing. All the faces on photos are oil paintings. Yuck.

Sincerely, this phone is so good that I'm beginning to get suspicious. I'll wait for the full review before I make a decision

Some may found out already, but there is a reason samsung use dual aperture(sony may also soon). Time to consider how you shoot with this camera as more of objects is going to get blurry, not because of optics, processing or focus. Its to do with a sensor size and depth of field.
To get the same depth of field as xz2premium's 1/2.3" f1.8, sensor close to this size - 1/1.5" needs aperture of f2.6 .
So when shooting, how far are you from the object or what is focused on will matter more than before. Its actually great for mid to long range shooting as you get bigger sensor, but for close ups having second aperture and better handling of noise would help.
So its not all roses.

It's more expensive than a Mi 9T Pro over here in Malaysia. That's expensive. I ordered Mi 9T Pro on 9. 9 but Lazada oversold it and refund me after 2 weeks waiting for my phone. Atm I rather look at Mi 9 Pro 5G, Realme X2 Pro and Red Magic 3s. Those are more premiumish phones with sd855+ gpu. All these cameras just doesn't do it for me. If I want a super camera I would buy a camera.

impressive photo results, as resulting from dxomark for the premium edition, but.. at 157.8 x 74.2 x 9.6mm and 208 grams... i rather carry my old compact camera: much better photos at much smaller frontal... footprint (103x60), though thicker, and slightly larger weight to carry in my pocket. and pretty much same price....
