Hey my lovely Readers, this time I've tried to give a deep Comparison between the cameras of these two Flagship Smartphones.

The iPhone 12 Pro Max has impressed us by being able to take incredible images that can rival what you might see from a DSLR. But Samsung's new Galaxy S21 Ultra packs an incredible camera array, boasting zoom skills that comfortably outstrip what Apple is offering. So how do these two phones stack up and which should you consider if you're really into your photography? 

So, let's just Start this Amazing Showdown between Samsung Galaxy S21 ultra and iPhone 12 Pro to Find out the Answer. 🔥

1. For Selfie Camera

(I will give Direct and to the point Conclusion to you)

A) Videos

I'm the terms of selfie camera(for videos), the Winner is S21 Ultra.

This is because the "Skin Tones" in S21 Ultra are very Natural when Sunrays fall in the face directly 

Whereas this natural tone isn't seen in iPhone 12 Pro.

B) Photos

Talking about Selfies,

In S21 ultra Skin Tones are not consistent. Also, sometimes Magentta Colour is seen on the face.

Whereas,

Skin Tones are Consistent and closer to natural in iPhone 12 Pro.

But

The Blur Effect is natural in S21 ultra

And Artificial in iPhone 12 Pro.

2. For Rear Camera

Both the phones have similar Rear Cameras,i.e., Standard, Wide Angle and Telephoto.

So, here's a bit about each of these three Amazing Cameras.

A) Photos

i) Standard Camera

Colors : The colours are almost the same in both the Flagship Smartphones.

Difference is that,

S21 gives more cooler images(preferred if you want the sky to look more brighter)

Whereas,

iPhone 12 Pro gives somewhat Warmer images.

Plus➕ point : The colours in S21 are already boosted so there is no need for editing

Whereas,

iPhone images will require some editing.

Contrast : Contrast is more in S21 along with the colours so, the Punchiness of image is felt more

Whereas,

the images in iPhone 12 Pro are felt flat.

Highlights : Highlights are better managed in iPhone 12 Pro than S21 that causes white parts of image to be Over Exposed.

Dynamic Range : The Dynamic Range is better in S21,i.e, if the sun is behind the subject subject

S21 Ultra's camera exposes the dark parts and also manages the highlights much-much better than iPhone 12 Pro.

Here, Are some samples that you can look at🔥🔥.

ii) Ultra-wide-angle

Both the phone's performs almost similar

But,

The processing of the image is much better in S21 thus gives a more detailed and sharpened image than iPhone.

Here are some Samples for Ultra Wide Angle Photos to look at.

iii)Telephoto

Portrait Mode : iPhone 12 Pro gives more Blur in the background because of the Default 2.5x Telephoto sensor

Whereas,

The Blur is lesser in S21 Ultra.

2.5x(iPhone 12 Pro) VS 3x(S21 ultra) : 

Here, again Samsung wins as it gives more clarity and sharpened images. Also, S21 Ultra has 10x sensor that also Performs superbly superb and thus sensor isn't in iPhone 12 Pro.

Galaxy S21 Ultra, 3x zoom.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, 2.5x zoom.

Galaxy S21 Ultra, 3x zoom, 100% crop.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, 2.5x zoom, 100% crop.

Low light performance :

In terms of Contrast, i.e, iPhone exposes the bright parts but not the dark one

Whereas,

S21 Ultra's camera exposes the dark part too.

So, this depends from person to person, i.e, it's her/his personal choice😂😂. (Just used a Popular Indian meme)

Galaxy S21 Ultra, night mode.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, night mode.

B) Videos

Everyone knows the answer.

iPhone wins in the terms of Consistency, Exposure, Saturation, Focus, Stabilisation(this is good in S21 ultra but still iPhone 12 Pro wins)

Bonus point : People who uses Instagram or people in search for a smartphone suitable for Vlogging then I'll suggest you to go with iPhone. As, iPhone is seen to be more compatible for Instagram (especially Instagram stories for videos) and For Vlogging.
