iPhone 13 Pro Max Beats Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra In Highest Model Photography Capability

JAKARTA - The technology giant Apple recently launched the iPhone 13 series. And it is predicted that the flagship model iPhone 13 Pro Max has qualified photographic quality, compared to the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra.

The two phones are the tallest models from the companies Apple and Samsung. Apple and Samsung's rivalry lasted for years, pushing each other to produce better work.

Apple opted for a much higher quality camera, while Samsung has scaled back its processing to produce more balanced photos.

The hardware and software of these two advanced camera systems will make it clear that Apple has an edge over Samsung when it comes to high-quality photography in a variety of conditions, as compiled from ScreenRant, Monday, September 20.

Super Smooth Light Quality and Zoom Features

Apple produces more light, this is important for capturing the best quality and producing the most beautiful images. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S21 Ultra enhances the quality of photos that can be taken with the 108-megapixel main image sensor, marking a major improvement over the previous generation.

Overall, the image quality is very good, the Galaxy S21 Ultra also has one of the zoom capabilities with two telephoto cameras serving 3 and 10 times zoom. The main feature of digital zoom which is claimed to be capable of 100 times, in fact, it has only been used for 30 times zoom, the photos look rough and tense.

This feature may be useful when moving closer to the subject, and when a dedicated zoom camera is not available. Optical image stabilization, pixel focus, and laser autofocus help keep photos sharp. The iPhone 13 Pro Max has a telephoto that offers triple zoom, a far cry from Samsung's dual 3 and 10x zoom cameras.

iPhone 13 Pro Max Aperture Makes Images Sharper

Product, Apple's new iPhone 13 Pro Max is a step up from the already excellent iPhone 12 Pro Max. Every camera is improved, especially the ultra-wide-angle which now has autofocus and a much wider f/1.8 aperture.

Compared to the Galaxy S21 Ultra with an aperture of f/2.2, this means the iPhone brings in more light. The same goes for the main camera, featuring a very fast f/1.5 lens compared to Samsung's f/1.8. These sound like small changes but they can make a big difference.

A wider aperture provides sharper photos with better detail in dark areas prior to image processing. Apple uses sensor-shift stabilization, which is better than moving the lens as Samsung did.

iPhone 13 Pro Max products have focal pixels, like Samsung's, but can use LiDAR as a backup to quickly and accurately measure distances in difficult conditions. The Galaxy S21 Ultra's laser autofocus is less reliable.

Automatic image processing plays a major role in smartphone photography and can enhance photos under some conditions. For photography enthusiasts, it's usually quite common to switch to RAW mode so that the image is untouched and can be adjusted manually.

With the advancement of modern technology, high dynamic range images, night mode, pixel binning and super-resolution zoom make this software much more useful. Ideally, it would be possible to view the default processing as a layer over the RAW file, which is exactly what Apple's ProRAW format provides. So far, Samsung doesn't have that option.

While this technology is far from reliable, it can produce some impressive bokeh simulations. When it comes to controls, Apple opts for simplicity, allowing for exposure adjustment and focus locking, but nothing that gets in the way of manual control.

However, Samsung includes a Pro mode that provides manual controls to adjust ISO, aperture, shutter speed, color balance, and focus, just like DSLR cameras. The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra is a great smartphone that has a fantastic camera and great zoom capabilities.

Most other users rarely need zoom with such a long process. While it's fun, it won't be of much use. iPhone 13 Pro Max has a faster lens for the most frequently used wide and ultra-wide cameras and LiDAR for sharp focus.

Apple's ProRAW allows users to improve images that have been processed with computational photography algorithms without losing quality. The Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max is an overall better smartphone for high-quality photography, with images that are sharp and bright, and tend to contain no motion blur.
