Because Samsung has better quality of their phones and cameras. Of course, other phones has better features and lower price. But, in my opinion, Samsung is more reliable.

I compared the Xiaomi Mi 5's camera to Galaxy S7 edge and Nexus 6P (Also AMA)

So, as the title says, I compared the Xiaomi MI 5's camera to the Galaxy S7 edge and the Nexus 6P. Xiaomi boasts about the 4-axis camera of the Mi 5, but the handset's camera performance is not that impressive, especially in low-light.
Image quality comparison: http://www.androidbeat.com/2016/04/galaxy-s7-xiaomi-mi-5-nexus-6p-camera-comparison/ -- The 6P results surprised me the most
4-axis OIS vs EIS comparison: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfostgeWHrA -- Just look at how good the Galaxy S7 edge's OIS is.
If you have any questions about the handset, please ask away. I will try my best to answer them.
thx for this review. very informative.
as custom ROM cannot enlarge pixels on CMOS, I hope CM13 for Mi5 will one day feature EIS toghether with OIS for video, just like Galaxy S7 Edge does.

Sadly, that's very unlikely.
can you say something about audio quality in video recording? my s4 for example is very weak in loud environments but that is exactly what i am interested in

Note 8 camera sensors?

Can someone please tel me what camera sensor Note 8 have? I mean, for Qualcomm and Exynos versions. Are they again Samsung for Exynos and Sony for Qualcomm? I like more the Sony one, for me looks better than Samsung one. You can get this info with Aida64.
I have Samsung sensors on my S8 (Exynos) and Sony on S8 Active, and for me Sony is way better than Samsung one. Also the signal seems better with Qualcomm...
Thank You!
The Qualcomm is Sony, not sure about the other.
For exynos version is SLSI_S5K2L2_FIMC_IS ( a.k.a Samsung made)
P.s. Just like in S8 / 8+ versions
Oh, that's really great news. Thank You!!!
So how much of a difference is there between the Sony and Samsung modules in the real world (if any)?

Well, Sony is much ponderate on mega sharping the images, more natural colors and look, better quality. On S7 was the same problem. Sony sensor better and more natural than Samsung one. Also Samsung sensor use more agressive "beauty face"...
I have S8 Active and S8 with Exynos and I will never buy again a Samsung Phone with Samsung photo sensor Simply sucks vs Sony one on Qualcomm versions. I will take some comparos and put them online soon to see the differences.

Thanks for the explanation. I have only ever owned Exynos versions of Sammy devices, always loved the way my photos turn out, so I guess I never had much to compare them with. I would be very interested to see real world examples of the difference.
How do we know what sensors are in our devices?
Aida64 is free. Look at "Devices", Front-Facing Camera and you will see SONY_IMX333 (depends on the phone) or SLSI_S5K2L2 etc. wich is Samsung sensor.

One quick example in low office light.
i do not think that the differences are THAT BIG as in those pictures ... i mean the detail, the dynamic range are totaly different

Same place, same time, same light etc. But not in all conditions are so different. That's true. Anyway, that beauty effect on the face it's present all the time when the light is not perfect. (on Samsung senzor)
also focused area is different ...

Very important news about this phone!

Please don’t delete this topic it’s fair warning!
I hate to be right sometimes but as I told long ago after years of testing it turns out that the best camera of Samsung was in S6 / S6Edge+. Test it yourself. Hold S6 in one hand and for example S8 in the other and take a photo in good light. Then zoom it on the phone and you will see that S6 has better details, no artificial brightener while for example S8 has it.
S6 has 16 Mpix and all flagships that came after had 12 Mpix rear camera.
I’ve tested S6 Edge Plus vs. S7 / S8 / S8+, Note8, S9, S9+ and…
only S9+ finally beat S6. (look how Samsung did bad for us from Sep2015 till March2018)
I wish I had NOT sale my S6 and bought a newer one
If You don't believe me? Ask XDA members who has S6 and a later Galaxy S model (but not S9+)
This is a Warning for You don't sell your S6!!!! or sell only if you can afford to buy S9+.
I did the wrong thing so I Warn you no to make the same mistake that I did

Need Camera2 Probe data for Samsung Galaxy A6

Hi all,
I'm considering the Samsung Galaxy A6.
I'm pretty concerned about the camera though and I was wondering if any one can provide the output from the app Camera2 Probe, which gives elaborate specifications for the rear camera.
The phone is on sale at MetroPCS for $150.
Thanks in advance.
here i have the a6+ though
Thanks I'm glad to see it can shoot RAW i.e. DNG photos.
It appears the A6 and A6+ cameras have the same megapixels and f-stop. Not sure of course if it is the exact same camera but seems probable.

Samsung S9 vs Huawei P20 PRO?

Hello there,
My main phone just broke, and for now I can't afford a recent flagship, although I have two options for my budget. (both the same price)
As the title says, I have to choose between a Huawei P20 PRO [128 gb / 6 gb RAM] and a Samsung Galaxy S9 [Exynos 64 gb/ 4gb RAM] (not plus).
So, I would like to ask you if I can get some guidance, I have read reviews and watched a lot of videos, but I'm still not sure...
I'm interested in a reliable device, a day battery for me is enough, a great all rounder camera in any condition.
I just have some concerns about the Huawei device, no OIS, no headphone jack and no Micro SD slot is a really turn off for me, but I would like to know if the experience overall compensate this. For the Samsung, I have seen that night or low light pictures are not as good as the Huawei (if any of you have switched between these two), and so is the battery (3000 mAh vs 4000 mAh).
Thanks in advance, I would really appreciate your answers.
Hi there, I actually owned the Samsung S9 but it was the Plus version. I wanted to get rid of the P20 PRO but I was very disappointed by the Exynos processor. I could not get 1 day of battery with it no matter how many apps I disabled. I learned then that the Exynos processors are not good when it comes to power consumption, they eat the battery up so fast. Also, the night photos were very very bad with the Samsung. The photos taken during day time were also bad whem zooming in full resolution. They had a weird pencil drawing texture. The only thing I liked about the S9 was the smooth zoom and the video quality. However I went back to the P20 PRO. Although the P20 PRO does not have the OIS in 4K mode, I learned to live with it and bought a Feyu Tech hand stabilizer. Combined with the Open Camera software, the P20 PRO is a great phone for filming. But only if you shoot in manual mode, auto mode tends to give noticeable fluctuations in exposure. Also, the sensor size really helps when shooting raw photos. You can crop so much from them and still get clear results thanks to the 40mp sensor.
As a person who lives in a region where Samsung sells the Exynos version of their devices, I can tell you that they are pure garbage and it's a scam that they are priced the same as the Snapdragon devices.
I used Samsung for many years and Exynos devices are one on the main reasons I switched.
Huawei are not flawless, but unless you are sure you can't live without rooting your phone, it's worth to consider.
P20 Pro will work faster than S9, it will last full day with no issues and will give you better photos in most cases.
Yes, you lose the headphone jack, it's a bummer, but you learn to live without it (future is now, baby). You can't expand the storage, but you get double for the same price and there are cheap/free cloud solutions, so worth checking if they suit your needs. The UI is not perfect, but compared to Samsung I'm not sure what's worse.
P.S. Did you check OnePlus devices at the same price point?
