That floating lens 3.2x is a portrait heaven.
The colors look so different sometimes. I wonder which ine is mode true to life. The Xiaomi 14 has a better front camera but the Pixel 8 Pro is stil better overall.
As always oversharpened PIxel compared to natural soft Xiaomi 14, guess many would always prefer the more "sharpened" image...
The xiaomi selfie stills weren't just soft they were absolute dosgsh*t.
if oversharpened then should loose quality, especially when we look on magnified part of the picture, imagine which phone make pictures like you see it with your eyes, what is more natural for u? soft xiaomi is like u see world?
Another great video! I was truly surprised to start watching and see you and Joshua were in Louisville! You even got the pronunciation down like the locals. Curious as to why you were visiting or what type of convention may have been going on? Hope you had a good time, Bourbon tours are always great. I still think the Pixel 8 pro has the advantage.
We were in town for a Verizon event at Churchill Downs as they prep for the Kentucky Derby. First time in Louisville for the both of us. I definitely enjoyed it.
Good review. Real time, direct comparison. Was considering going frim the p8p to Xiaomi 14, because of the scrolling lags, but not after this review. Thanks. Subscribed!
Thank you for this great comparison, just what I wanted to see!! After 4 months, I've had enough of the Pixel 8 Pro and I'm replacing it with the Xiaomi 14. Initially, coming from the Pixel 5, I felt the photos were amazing, and capabilities of the 3 lenses covered pretty much everything you'd ever need. However over time, I've come to realise, the P8P still oversharpens the heck out of everything. Most visible in portraits and low light scenes with high contrast. Yes the P8P can squeeze more dynamic range out of a scene, but I've got to the point where I feel like the photos it produces have lost their realism. It seems the Xiaomi 14 photos are a lot less processed and natural looking. The Pixel is a phone which anyone can click the shutter and get a pretty decent shot. Using a camera or the Xiaomi will depend more on the skill of the photographer, rather than AI doing most of the work. 7:36 was this using portrait mode or the Xiaomi natural bokeh? If natural, this is a great example of less processing, particularly in the skin texture and tones. It's no wonder my gf hates every photo of her taken on my Pixel and says she can see every pore on her face 😂 It seems portraits on the Pixel make everyone look 10 years older!
also 14 can adjust sharpness on pro mode
the new image-processing of pixel cameras have gone worse after the camera version 9. Too much contrast and too much darkening on shadows. before, the exposure was great, now it's so bad
Thanks for this detailed comparison! In photos, the Pixel 8 pro seems to mop the floor with the Xiaomi 14 in most cases, bright or dim light especially, but also dark. Can it be that the main and uw lens on the Xiaomi 14 have serious focus issues? Brick wall structures in various shots appear really blurred, also the poker chip and so on...
You forgot to turn off the beautify filter on the front face camera with the xiaomi.
cooperation between pixel and leica would be interesting
Hi, Does Xiaomi 14 heat up during cashiers usage?
can you please tell which one produced true to life colors?
Xiaomi is better in terms of colour consistency... And video recording smoothness
I m owning Xiaomi 14. But my biggest concern is, the camera is switching to Telephoto lens in 2.6× zoom. So, I am confused, whether it is 3.2× Telephoto lens, or 2.6×
Should this video discuss the camera mode for the photos? All on auto mode may be easy-use for “normal” user, but it’s not the full performance of those phones. So the contents of video has many aspects to improve.
Yes, Xiaomi 14 ultra is more expensive but generally much better overall. Cameras too. Basic Mi14 has a different main camera sensor than Ultra
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I like American and eu comparisons Always comparing lower end models of Chinese to ultras/pro/max models of Samsung/pixel/iphones lol
Xiaomi 14 price is pro price more expensive than samsung lol😂
Both are so good. Daylight it's pixel and night is Xiaomi in general. Exposure of pixel is better than Xiaomi. But Gcam with Xiaomi is definitely on par with pixel But any day I would choose pixel phone for it's reliable Software and updates. Pixel has to bump up on chipset and camera hardware fronts now.
In photos Xiaomi's HDR is less consistent handling highlightsbut when it kicks well its closer. In videos i really prefer the Xiaomi it has better quality, stability and microphones Hopefully Xiaomi can improve consistency in future updates
Umm i agree with what u said in photos but video yep pixels stabilisation is kinda jerky sometimes and quality wise Xiaomi is better in low light but in day time with proper light both are sharp and clear + pixel have more field of view
Здравствуйте! Скажите пожалуйста, большая разница будет между pixel 7 pro и pixel 8 pro а именно фото видео возможности и автономность, или всё таки стоит переплатить и купить 8 про? Заранее спасибо за ответ 🤝
Muy buen video!!!! A mi me sigue gustando mas el pixel 8 pro en fotos. ..en videos es un poquito mejor el Xiaomi 14
I prefer the color science of the Xiaomi. But will this be available in US?
Not a chance. Xiaomi doesnt want to be Huawei 2.0 and get sanctioned.
I guess premium flagship phone have reached the quality photo with the pixel. My 2 eyes said.
I'm using Xiaomi 14, that 3.2X telephoto is one of the best feature so far even compared to iPhone 15 which literally they don't have.
Can anyone use wifi 6E with xiaomi 14?
So what i can tell after your test is .... Photo samples are good from both devices you can choose whatever style u want but pixel have better hdr and wider lense compared to Xiaomi.. In videos pixel is better except that not so smooth transition between lenses but overall more field of view and better hdr and white balance in videos too
bro what happen? shoot in xiaomi always blury :D
Xiaomi kept unprocessed, and this is a total win! Pixel already is on an oversharped way that has no return, unfortunately
never been a fan of pixel. the processing on it is the heaviest. notice the videography of pixel sucks because videos are real time and can't be processed heavily. tensor, bad isp, small sensors = crap.
and I heard in the xiaomi , whatever you see in the viewfinder ..that's what you get ... which helps alot , you get what you're looking for .. while in Pixel , it looks different on the viewfinder , once you take a shot ... it got processed heavily which is im not a fan of .. currently using Pixel 7 Pro here and I had enough x'D ... waiting for my Xiaomi 14 to arrive
Xiaomi looking rough in many shots.. either very blurry, or doesn't handle exposure very well.. Lots of positives though! The bokeh is reaaaallly nice, especially on portait shots. The general colors look great and give this "warm, film-like" vibe. And video is actually not bad at all, Pixel is extremely noisy at night.
He had some troubles with focussing...
almost all pictures are more sharp, natural colors, shade exposure and better for p8pro, only those issues make me wait for p9 in October, but not saying x14 or x13 are bad, they are very good phones!
In photography, in good light conditions, at the moment I think that there is no smartphone better than the Pixel 8 Pro for photography.. but what irritates me is that there is no perfect smartphone For photo and video... video continues to be a problem... I don't understand why Google doesn't unlock video enhancement to be used with the wide lens... If that happens, without a doubt Which will beat 1 vs. 1 with iPhone
I like your city , where do you live?
I don't know, I haven't seen a camera better than Pixel's yet
Hello, why Xiaomi 14 and not Xiaomi 14 pro/Ultra?
Because that's the phone they sent me. You have an Ultra I can barrow?
@@phandroid Next time you should compare only matching things.
@@phandroid Thanks for clarifying! It just seemed strange to compare phones that are not direct competitors in terms of technical characteristics... I don’t have Ultra)
@@phandroidsarcasm much? Just for that I won't watch your stupid channel
50 megapixel not 15 megapixel on xiaomi 14
Everything looks a little washed out on the xiaomi. Hdr in bright areas is much better on the pixel. Also the colors seem much more natural on the pixel. Xiaomi microphone sounds a little better to me than the pixel, something pixels have gotten better at but still struggle with from time to time.
I own both. Mi 14 renders colors more accurately to me. Even with Rich Tone on, the colors in Mi 14 are more punchy and has more character. I like the images more on my old Pixel 3. And it takes 0.5 seconds to take shots with Pixel and you have to make your hands steady. I feel more fun using the Mi 14 to be honest.
Alternative title: Pixel 8 Pro Smackdown on Xiaomi 14
No , it doesn't beat it at all really . It's personal preference
Exactly as I thought. Excited to get the pixel 8 pro.
As allways Pixel is better 🎉🎉
Never!
@@hanswi336 Then you are completely blind, I'm so sorry 😂
@@2Bleicher Don't worry - you don't have to be sorry.
Bs
I mean... yeah ?? sure? if you're a fan of overprocessed image
Xiaomi 14 user here. I'm kinda disappointed because I expected more from a flagship phone. Selfie is amazing until you put light sources incorrectly. It simply overexposures sky and lights. Main cameras have the most realistic photos/videos I've ever seen until you go to lowlight. I've also encountered weird behavior with colored studio lights. Xiaomi algorithms just change color for some reason (like if I set the light to purple image is going to be yellow or red) I was comparing iPhone 14 and Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi lose by a lot in lowlight and dynamic range Xiaomi just can't do colors and exposure correctly in lowlight
Why is the Pixel audio soo bad in videos? Every comparism video it's featured, it suck compared to every phone.
Pixel's postprocessing is a little bit too much in my taste .. I love how natural Xiaomi 14 looks .. also even tho Pixel's nightshot just a tad bit brighter , I like the xiaomi's approach of a darker image but having a better looking highlights exposure and color .. also seems like the image is still suffers from the purple-ish tint at night just like Pixel 7 Pro Now that i've seen some people choosing pixel over xiaomi , you have to remember that xiaomi priced lower than pixel 8 pro in some market ..then here's a little bit of extra to take into consideration Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is far superior than Tensor G3 , the charging speed is faster on xiaomi , the battery lasted longer , the speaker sounded better , thinner bezel im using Pixel 7 Pro as my daily driver , I liked it at first but once you use it outside you'll be sorry on how much heat and battery drain it had ...you can't even charge it fast
The jump start zoom of the Google Pixel is annoying me.
i have got p8 vanilla ..camera the best i ever seen ..
On the Pixel 8 Pro low light conditions are a bit better. But if you view the pictures on a real monitor the difference is not as huge as you might think. On the Pixel the colors are very vibriant. The Xiaomi hasdmore naturally colours. On the Pixel you have: It's an happy day, Xiaomi/Leica show the real tristesse of the world
Xiaomi surexposition
Not even close including the price.
We should not forget one thing pixel is pro model not the regular version
If only Google could make such a beautiful smartphone like the Xiaomi 14 when it will release the next Pixel 10, it would be awesome 🥰 Fed up with this awful transversal bar for many years even though the Pixel 9 will be prettier than those awful Pixel 6-7-8 series... 😉 The best thing for me would be the Xiaomi 14 with the G logo on the back as well as the Pixel UI 👍
I bought the s24 ultra for comparison, as well as my own pixel 8pro. The S24 ultra has a worse main and wide-angle camera, the pixel is king pixel 8 pro keep the pixel 8 pro return the Samsung...
Long Story Short It is the Pixel 8 which is the Xiaomi 14 Killer in the respect of both Photo Quality and Price( Here in the UK You can get the Pixel 8 for £555 but the 14 is £900)
Comparison with 7 pro
Most of the cases pixel was winner. Some cases with close up shots Xiaomi wins because of color and bokeh.
Wow kudos to xiaomi for stepping up in 2024. In some shots it even surpassed the pixel. Great to see natural colours on xiaomi . Also pixel is still stuck with oversharpening specially in porraits and in the night. Definetely xiaomi is my pick whether to choose between it and pixel or samsung s24/+. Thanks for the comperision.
Waggling around produces motion blur, and missing the focus produces focus blur. Well done! You picked a very weird collection of subjects: airplane, hotel room, inside brewery, inside restaurant. Haven't you been in a park with trees and flowers. For the average phone user your collection is worthless... Besides that: prices here are P8 Pro = 1200 Euro, X14 = 900 Euro (average) - so please don't compare apples to pears.
Pixel wowww
Compare pricing...
Same price
Xiaomi 14 is have more character on photo. But for video Pixel 8 still win.
How i wish Pixel 8 pro will compare to Vivo x flagship
It should be up against the pixel not the pro
It would lose that comparison too.
What you arguing over a fuckin phone 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@@phandroid ... poor man, poor eyes!
Guys why would you focus on the price? Would you compare an iPhone with a pixel pro phone? No. So, this comparison should be between 14 ultra and the pro. Money should be no object in this video because it isn't price/performance based but camera based. Btw I prefer Pixel phones, but that's not the case.
Pixel 8 Pro have better photos💪
Pixel 8 pro is great
Xiaomi won, hands down. Sick and tired of over processed, hyper HDR, oversharpened and over contract Pixel shots
Still pixel win
Pixel is clear no competition 😅
I'm glad I made the switch from Pixel to Xiaomi 14. The photos look way more natural and not overly processed and sharpened I have to admit though, that the ultrawide camera quickly falls apart in low light. The 3.2x on the other hand really shines in the same scenario and it also produces some of the best macro shots I've seen on a phone.
How's HyperOS? I'm on pixel 8 pro right now considering switching to Xiaomi 14 ultra
Did you make the switch ?@@SimonSilvesterChristensen
@@Aditya-zb9ir I'm current waiting for my Xiaomi to get delivered. I already ordered it
@@SimonSilvesterChristensen Do let me know how the phone feels interms of perfomance & camera once you start using the device. Thank you.
@@Aditya-zb9ir performance is top notch no problem. The camera is the smoothest of any phone (besides iphone) and I'm talking about zoom transitions etc. HyperOS is amazing nothing more to say. The camera sometimes takes good shots and sometimes doesn't. But when it gets the photo it gets it extremely good.
Pixel :D
I will buy the pixel 8 pro 😊
Good job
Pixel 8 pro all the way
One thing I hate about Chinese phones is their pic over-smoothening. This phone is no exception. Pixel still more superior.
Pixel is better for indoor puctures, video better for Xiaomi. Low light and day puctures are 50-50%.
The selfie camera on the pixel is terrible, the Xiaomi has that bokeh effect on the zoom I guess also the zoom lens on the Xiaomi can do macro shots(floating lens), the Pixel back cameras are overall better to the eye on this video on YT, Xiaomi is impressive for the price could be the best value premium phone on the market, Pixel is Pixel you know what you're getting, a device packed with technology, honestly i prefer the Xiaomi 14, cheaper and has a lot more storage, the Pixel 8 Pro too expensive the starting one has 128GB, for a phone like that it is a joke, I think the Xiaomi 14 512GB is cheaper than the Pixel 8 Pro 128GB.
P8 Pro has that oomph that is missing in the X 14..plus the faces are way too waxy on the X 14
Have a good look at (6:08) selfie. I would prefer "waxy" face rather than Pixel's zombified one.
@@victorrumyantsev3718😂😂😂
iPhones are for children and senior citizens
Not sure what that has to do with this video. What do you have against the iPhone?
Xiaomi 14 cameras are actually pretty bad in comparison with Pixel
The best pixel 8
Xiaomi 14 users assembly point..🤚
i feel like xiaomi heavily downgraded in terms of camera, they had such amazing cameras years ago but these days idk what they doing. even other devices that are cheaper or about the same than the xiaomi 14 & are better in terms of camera & they have all the same features & soc in the device. (honor, oneplus). i myself i have a p8p since i wanted to try out the "technology" & try out the "google" hardware. its not bad. selfie cam is alright, dont use it anyway other than face-unlock which works without any problems. overall its a good phone with some downgrades but the xiaomi has some too, when looking at the cam & no real or only barebone AI feature. by looking at this video & other tests the camera sucks massively. even when comparing it from my dads 3 year old poco phone it loses. everytime they seem to forget to sharpen the picture or the software make it blurry for some reason + the video stabilizer didnt get fixed since 5-6 years having a lot of distortion when moving the camera in darker scenes which is unacceptable in 2024. atm priced are both kinda the same. at release i had could saved ~50-100$ for the xiaomi but now the xiaomi 14 is 750 & the pixel 8 pro is 740. (with less space but i never use the 128gb anyway yet still having 80 apps installed + 250+ photos currently saved (70gb space left) - so i never care if the phone has 128, 256 or 512 gb of space as long it does its job reliable
Not bad
This man is not trustworthy.. every Xiaomi photo is out of focus.. it’s not possible .
Офигеть. Вишня уже цветет. У нас зацветет только в начале мая
Если правильно понял, то съемка была в Луисвилл, по данным метеослужб там сейчас температура до +19 может подниматься.
Xiaomi is pretty poor. Shame as lovely looking phone.
Je teouve que le pixel est mailleur de facon générale
Not a fair comparison. Pixel 8 should be compared
This isn't about a fair comparison. This is simply to show you the differences.
@@phandroid know your role and shut your mouth
@@phandroid If you don't care about "fair" why not compare it with a polaroid cam? Another way to just "simply show the differences" LOL
The Pixel 8 Pro, using UltraHDR in all its sensors (maximum resolution of the sensors at 48, 50 and 48 mpx), has a different (more natural) processing than the 12 mpx mode, and is simply unbeatable, not even one-size-fits-all sensors. inch or anything, the Pixel is better, day and night (especially at night with 50 megapixels, the degree of detail is excellent), in Zoom with 48 megapixels it is also better, neither Xiaomi, nor Samsung, nor any other is Better if you use the maximum resolution of the telephoto sensor. And if you use Video Boost, both day and night (especially at night), the difference is abysmal, not even the iPhone comes close in quality. Whoever wants to see it, perfect, and whoever doesn't want to see it is denying a crushing reality, the post processing continues to make a difference, no matter how many one-inch sensor you use (I already know that the Xiaomi 14 does not have a one-inch sensor, but not even the Ultra surpasses the Pixel), none equals or surpasses a Pixel 8 Pro with UltraHDR (48, 50 and 48 mpx), that's it, and there is nothing more. How do I know, very simple, because I have a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, an iPhone 15 Pro Max, a Xiaomi 14 Ultra and a Pixel 8 Pro, and my personal phone is the Pixel 8 Pro, for user experience and cameras, in which I also have several versions of GCam installed that I use as it suits me, as I said, UNSURPASSED.
The xiaomi is way cheaper , runs cooler , is faster and won't lag like the pixel will soon enough .
Pixel demolishes the Xiaomi
Is fake .....no2 is Xiaomi 14
If you want to destroy the Pixel, you'll need a 14 Ultra
😂
Overall xiaomi 14 is best camera 📸 phone 📱 2024
No
Compare with xiaomi ultra and pixel 8 pro......xiaomi 14 regular vs pixel 8 pro lol.... Xiaomi stand out still the best to pixel 8 pro.😂
selfie cam of mi is better than pixel's
Not great, both
In my professional opinion, the S24 Ultra stands out as the most impressive device of the year. It seamlessly integrates a comprehensive range of functional features, making it a highly versatile and efficient tool.
What does that have to do with this comparison? I'm confused.
As I see the tested devices here, they appear to be incomplete and lacking in functionality.
And what exactly functions have to do with the quality. 😂
lmao s24u sucks
The S24 Ultra is a snow board...
vivo x100 pro watching everthing
8 pro is better
No.
Xiaomi cant never beat Pixel phone... perhaps another few more years or more.
Just look at the Pixel 8 Pro's selfie quality (6:08). In fact, it is horrible - reviewer looks like zombie.
*XIAOMI BETTER!*
