Shamrock Sean, 18 Feb 2024Don't pretend you're not stupid I am not, I have no idea why you do closer inspection of photo, and if you do and have a reason for it, you should write down your opinion on all phones' comments pages.

I though you wanted to see something closer, that why I advice you using binoculars.

        What happened to the low frequency playback? Is the graph accurate? It just drops off to invisible a smidge below 100Hz.

              What a pity .....

              Dear GSM-Arena-Team,

              first a big THANK YOU for continuously publishing smartphone reviews with a dedicated camera-chapter, providing comparable photo-samples of t h e s a m e s c e n e s in each single review. Within certain limitations (light, perspective, distance to object...), this enables comparisons of imaging-performance across different devices by choice of your readers, e.g. for device's zoom-lenses.
              Provided your reviewers keep their longstanding habit of shooting the same scenes again and again (which may become boring over time, understandably) that is...

              Example: for zoom lenses, for a long time shots of the "golden castle's" fine-detailed mural with clock and of the view from the park towards the street corner at "vitosha hall hotel" with fine detailed bushes, cars, car-plates, traffic signs and small circular cutouts in the white wall appeared in every review. These details provided a great opportunity for comparisons across devices.

              Unfortunately, in last months reviews, they were missing more and more (mural with clock) or their perspective changed (vitosha hall's upper fassade with little fine details instead of the street corner at ground level with many fine details).

              In the current Galaxy S24 Ultra review, these scenes vanished completely as far as zoom-shots are concerned. What a pity .....

              Instead, reviewers seem to concentrate more on new motives with larger structures with little fine details (facades, closeups ...), which tend to make zoom-shots look more impressive than fine-detailed somewhat distant objects (mural, street corner), which may unveil the camera's limitations more easily - but provide better material for comparisons.

              Please, keep taking zoom-shots of the mural and the street corner at ground-level for comparison!

              Thank you
              and
              Best Regards

                  Don't see what the big fuss is about this phones cameras. Images are horrid on closer inspection

                        Biggest issue is still the lack of a 10 bit screen. It is noticeable on my S23U and the main reason why I will not upgrade to another Ultra atm

                          Xperia 1V main sensor destroys this toy, especially in HDR video recording. It is another league.

                            The 10x looks muddier than 9.9 shots because the AI processing kicks in at 10x. It fills the photo in with what it thinks should be there

                              Nothing much new on 24fps mode... S21 Ultra has 24fps available in Pro mode for all lenses. Should be pointed out that 24fps is variable so actual frame rate can be 20-30fps, which means audio will not be in sync if the video is being edited with other video.

                              Samsung finally realized their default video bitrate is too low for 4K.

                                  Wow, zoom quality is right up there with S23 Ultra. Surprising that it seems more consistant and less noisy, because I expected it to be noticably heavier processed.
