Hi, we just used the factory settings, so we just started up the phone for the first time and started shooting. I wanted to see what it feels like for someone who is not as experienced with smartphone photography.

Thanks

Hi,

in this format, we only compare 2 different smartphones, but we have a comparison with the Xiaomi 15 Ultra in Barcelona, please find the article here: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Smartphone-camera-showdown-Testing-two-of-2025-s-best-phones-in-Barcelona.980477.0.html

Foliage presentation on the iPhone is horrible. It attempts to denoise that destroys individual tree branch yet leaving behind traces of noise that make for a mushy photo.

However, it excels in color performance. Its contrasty look makes for a dehazed photo and more perceived as clearer. But, there are times that its contrast can obscure details in the shadow region.

My two-cents as an amateur photographer: maintain its black level to produce a cleaner photo while not crushing shadows—maybe dial back its contrast.

Always read biased reviews as if Samsung and Apple are the only worthy phones. I have a friend who bought the S25, and I just received my Xiaomi ultra 15, and the photo quality isn't even close.
