How can Samsung forget this guy for their event?
Right? Maybe next time, Samsung! 🤞🏼#TeamThisGuy 👏🏼
Samsung doesn't have a good shutter speed and pictures are blurred in all modes even with camera assistant.
@@stevendivish You make me want to switch to Android because of your videos. You deserve more recognition from them, Steven.

Cinematography is absolutely out of the world! Really loved the laid-back conversational vibe of this video. Keep up the good work!
Your support means a lot! Thank you so much!
Currently using 8pro. And i proudly say pixel camera is mind-blowing
Why its selfie camera sucks?
Cuz no one uses it@@gutierrezgutierrezsanchez138
@@gutierrezgutierrezsanchez138 It's not tho, people just got used to iphones oversaturated videos/photos that "normal" looking ones seems to suck
@@gutierrezgutierrezsanchez138sure about that? It's fine to me.
What's your response to the tensor processor? The benchmark scores may not matter but pixel scores are way way behind to ignore in terms of sheer numbers. Did you experience that in day to day use?
Love the stylised cinematography and the colour grading. 90% tech channels look drab and boring with the MKBHD colour palettes and MWITB ADHD graphics. This looks refreshingly cinematic. Best of luck for future videos.
GAG THE LIVE SISTER!!!!!
Man your cinematography is just amazing . Loved your work
Where were you all my life??? I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS AND HAVE BEEN WATCHING THEM ONE AFTER THE OTHER. I ain't no photographer, but this is just really really good stuff. I love your videos. They are simple yet technical. I love it.
Been a subscriber just for the quality of the content and the video. Finally some fresh air amidst all the youtubers going bland with their editing. great Work man!!!
I've been waiting for your review since pixel 8 launch. Thank you for sharing your personal take! Cheers. #teampixel
I just found your channel and whow! Your videos are next level! Never seen such an artistic comparison ! Cinematography and color grading! I can't explain it in words. You got yourself a new follower!!!
Welcome to the community! If there's anything specific you'd like to see in future videos, feel free to let me know. And meanwhile, you can check other similar tests in my style on the channel!
I'm also a new subscriber I would love to see more iPhone 15 videos I'm getting one in pink
Great job. An engaging, calm presentation. A refreshing change from the noisy ones. Subscribed!
Thank you!
I think u Don't have millions subscribers but you presentation, all discussion,others details as well really fascinating. I prefer to watch your all videos for your perfect photography & cinematography
Man this is again a high quality video, the effort you made to make those great shots! Waiting for a future Pixel 8 pro camera review.
Thanks a lot! It took me a few weeks to capture all these shots and edit them! Glad you appreciate the quality!
You're welcome! I was blown away starting from the shot at 0:05 to the end, the whole review just looks like an official campaign film, great job!
very good video and informative. I suggest you that if you always keep the results of phone A on left and Phone B on right, then keep it that way all the way till the video ends. Its very confusing when at one comparison iphone is on left and on next its on right and then back again in next comparison on left. Even with titles at bottom it gets confusing. Cheers.
I love the way you compare everything, its exactly what i've been looking for Please compare the iphone 15 to the S24 (hopefully exynos) when it comes out. CHeers
I was waiting for this, great video! Now hoping for a deep dive camera analysis of Pixel 8 version. Love your content
Nice to watch your videos. very professional and informative. I am very glad that I subscribed to your channel. Keep it up in the same style and spirit!🎉
You have earned a subscribe, courtesy such a good comparison
I love the cinematography, Subscribed!
Again. You're so good at making comparison content. It's a matter of time you'll go big! Nice, Steven!
Thank you!
Glad this channel showed up in my recommended, great video and love how it was shot/presented. Surprised at how well the Pixel held up with video, both are solid.
Thanks!
this is some quality comparison stuff going on nice to see....pixel phones are gaining ground only if tey use snapdragon processors along with generative AI and computational photography you cnt go wrong with either......nice work....👍
Wow. This was an excellent video and the best comparison that I have seen so far.
Wow, thanks a ton!
I was waiting for this, thanks lot 🌞🤩
Rocking with my iPhone 15. Pixel is quite good too. I went with iPhone because I have been using android for over a decade now, needed something new. Definitely liking this new feel.
Why you didn't choose s23 ultra?
@@muqit_x93 because its much costlier than my İPhone 15. The price difference is almost about $750 between the two phones in my country. So it does make sense for me to choose s23 ultra
kitna main kharida bro@@debasishsarma5195
@@muqit_x93 dumb question. its clearly mentioned that he is a long term android user. why would he want to buy android once again?
That was a very well-rounded and professional comparison. I think I'll go with the Pixel 8, especially at that price point. 👍
Adding one more subscriber to your channel 😊. Really appreciate the way you said each and everything both Pixel 8 n iPhone 15. In India 🇮🇳 no one has ever made this type of comparison till date. U cleared my fomo of which mobile to buy . Thanks man. Much love. Keep going like this ❤️💪
Im buying Pixel 8 are you ?
@@sourabhkaranjkar8508 I'm wth 8pro frnd 💪
Your video quality is insanely good Why didn't I find you before :')
Thank you, your videos are always helpful
Bro is honest...nowadays paid partnerships got more Attention from people....Yet another honest review❤
I've seen a lot of comparison videos, this was the best.
That means a lot! Thanks for making my day 🙌🏼
Top notch as always🔥🔥🔥🔥waiting for comparison with s24 ultra
First time watching your video Content quality is amazing!
Thanks a lot! Tomorrow is new video, it will be epic, hope to see you there :)
My lord, so detailed review 🎉
The best review i have ever seen , thank you so much to make this review so clear , i am going with the pixel 8 all the way 🙌
Thank you so much!
really well done video, real world usage and comparisons. Keep up the great work. By the way what's the name of the song playing at 3:03?
Very honest comparison I love your channel.
Would you recommend a lens / filter for the pixel 8 / 8 pro ? If so can you give me a recommendation. As for shooting I would say over half will be indoors Gym workout Social media reels and the other half will be outdoor shots.
The way you showed both the phones was pretty good and i thought for a sec that how could a technophile like me didn't saw you till now..!! Hats off to you and your team..!
This is such a beautiful video 🔥
I just ordered the pixel 8, updating from the 4a 5G so it should be a nice boost. I was a bit torn between the 8 and 8 pro but I just couldn’t bring myself to pay nearly 1000 for it (to get the 256g model). I decided to get the less expensive model. I love my pixel, but there are still a few things about the 8 series I think could be better. I figure get the base model and I will have a nice trade in phone if they make some real improvements for the 9 or 10
Could you please elaborate which things could be better in Pixel 8?
@@aileen8492 just a few little things, the face unlock uses a picture and not lidar so it doesn't work in the dark. The finger print reader also takes a picture whereas most other use sonic scanning I believe. They both work well enough, it's been a good phone so far. The 8 won't get access to Gemini either but I don't care about that. It has very good outside viewing brightness, best phone I've ever had as far as brightness is concerned
Love your reviews❤
7:25 you put "locked" mode on, which IS NOT the strong stabilisation mode. It's a separate thing. The active stabilisation is the button on the right. Locked just crops in and whatever you point it at, it will not move from that until you push it out of frame
Which camera you used for this video? And Light also. Give us a video on your setup
Beautiful 😍 good job
I'm planning to get one for myself it's none other than the mighty Pixel 8. Love this comparison!
Thanks for watching!
Superb video, how would the cinematic video and blur video compare in evening light. Do the phones focus hunt etc in low light video? You should compare to S23 too if given an opportunity
quality content ❤️👏🏻
Great video! Made me hit subscribe to your channel 👏🏼
great video! would love to see s23 vs iphone 15 vs pixel 8
GREAT comparison!
Love the video, amazing quality! I'm leaning towards pixel 8 but the iphone 15 is really close. Anyone can take any of these 2 and not make a mistake about it. I loved them both.
Thanks!
Excellent stuff!
Thanks a lot!
Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Best comparison vedio ever ❤
u havent mentioned about the paid sponcership for the gimble? im guessing it could be sponcered idk if it is
awesome lol, Subscribed your channel for pixel 8
I am hoping to make tutorial videos like yours. Which camera would be better: pixel 8 or iphone 15? Also, how do you record your audio in public spaces where there is a lot of background noise?
The iPhone has got a similar trick to the double press of the power button. Just need to go into the accessibility settings and map the power button to start the camera by triple pressing the power button….
Always nice comparison
Thanks!
did you use Night Sight on the Pixel for low light? Because I saw the normal mode in the video for low light segment
I've been an iPhone guy for a while now, but I finally switched from my 11 pro to a pixel 8, and even if just for that sweet action pan mode I would say it's worth it 😂
Hi Steven! Any chance you could make a video on taking nice portrait photos and how to capture best photo of moving subject on Samsung S23 (or s24u) ? Nice videos bro :)
testing the s24 u right now! :)
Pressing the button twice for camera activation is a feature that Pixel has it starting with their Nexus phone models… at least 10 years ago…
A suggestion. It would help if for all comparisons you choose left for Phone X an right side for phone Y so that the use can use that weighing instinct in terms of the direction that they're 'leaning' towards. Its confusing when sometimes the iphone display is on the left side of the video and on the next comparison it is the pixel8 :) Great video otherwise, super helpful thank you!
When will we get to see a detailed review of the S24 Ultra camera on your channel?.. I am eagerly waiting for you to show us the camera capabilities of the S24 Ultra in your video.😉
Try "MotionCam: Camera & RAW Video (Beta)" it cam record in RAW DNG format for video and they are superbly comparable to DSLR
Action mode is called action on pixel, not "locked", it's the icon next to it, with a person running. I think steven knows that, but won't show it due to the fact that it can do 1080p, 30 fps, unlike the iphone with 4k...
Your video made me want to buy the Pixel 8. I'm replacing an iPhone XR. Apple Watch makes it hard to leave iOS. Thx Steven!
Pixel all day.
It feels so good watching such with my pixel 8 😊😊😊
3:58 classic pixel problem, if you look closely your face is out of focus in the pixel footage. Why? Because the amazing engineers opted to set the focus to infinity (background is crisp) and then they try to fix it in post with face unblur. This has been an issue since since 7 series and NOBODY is talking about it. For a daily user this is a huge problem as every selfie is simply out of focus! Please someone make a video about it and make Google realise the blunder they have made.
The 8 pro has autofocus on the front camera, the regular 8 does not
I'm a pixel 6 user, definitely im gonna get pixel 8 soon
Get something with fast charging. Or wait pixel 9 pro.
Love Prague views and vibe ❤
Loved your content, great effort brilliant output. This video put Pixel 8 really next to iPhone. At the end its consumer choice but few typical iPhone drawbacks like not having a Fingerprint reader in 2024 always drags me to alternative like Pixel.
Thanks so much for watching!
As always, Nice comparison. Now I'm waiting for you to test Samsung S24 series.
Thanks! S24 Ultra series will be super epic this year! Stay tuned!
@@stevendivish - Finger Crossed 😁🤞
I was an iPhone fan > then onto Samsung > and since Pixel 6 pro been a Pixel guy!
Hello Steven I was wondering if you are doing a review on the Samsung Galaxy s24 ultra camera with the freewell ND filters . thank you
Yes! The video is in the works! btw filters are the same as on the S23 U, all one needs is just a S24 U case, which is being sold already 📸
Like when you said that the pixel has the "double click the power button to open camera" and for the iPhone you just said it's not that easy without even mentioning the on lock screen button. It REALLY shows that you're on a side bro! Also in the beginning of the video the first thing you said "Here's why the pixel has a better camera" before even showing any result.
To be fair, Pixel 8 has more tweaks and tools than the iPhone 15.
Great video! Check out the Vivo X100 Pro and a comparison would be nice if possible
Vivo is king
Damn what a review thanks I picked the pixel 8
What camera u use for making videos
iphones have backtap and accessibility shortcuts side button. so if you wanna quick shot you’ll sett in the settings app okay. I hope you gasped 😉 3:23
Whats your initial thoughts on the s24+/ultra. Really looking forward to your insight as I'm considering preordering
I will definitely make a test of the S24 Ultra's camera system once I get a hold of the phone. But judging from the launch specs I'm a little bit disappointed they went for 5x camera instead of 10x. The rest is yet to be seen once the phone is available over here
@@stevendivish yea the mainstream reviewers are saying they dont notice a difference going from 10x 10mpx to 5c50 mpx.. but that just sounds wrong. Hard pill to swallow if AI can mimic optical lenses to that degree
Bro what type of camera model are you using
Miss Prague. I hope I will visit once more.
Another thing we forget is that these videos have the best shots hands down, the videography of Steven is really great…
thank you! 🙂
Great comparison but iPhone 15 are 15 pro recently mkbhd camera review department 15 pro winner than which can i choose 15 are 15 pro video department..?
Can you tell me best photography lens for Mobile
1:42 nice slippers, mate!
It's tough to choose because I want the iphone display. But I want the pixel rear camera. Sucks to have to choose either a reference display or a a reference camera. I think if I could only have one I'd go with the iPhone.
great video
Great test, please try the little xiaomi 14 too
Hey if you could can u make comparison between s23u & s24u
Hai fatto benissimo complimenti
Curiously waiting for your s24 ultra banger bro.
Thanks man! Coming ASAP 🫡
I use a pixel 7 and my biggest gripe with it is the out of focus front camera. I can see that it didn't improve with the 8.
Hello, can you make a video comparing the Pixel 7 and Pixel 8 I want to buy one of them
Can You Please Try Motion Cam Pro On Pixel It Can Record RAW Videos
For camera i think the pixel is a good choice but for video i'll go with i phn. Currently i'm using pixel 5 and i just love it❤
you haven't made any video on pixel 7 , please make a video on pixel 7 vs pixel 8 comparison
