The author of the YouTube channel “Maxim Sergeevich” showed how they shoot the photo Vivo X200 Ultra, Samsung S25 Ultra, iPhone 16 Pro Max, Xiaomi 15 Ultra, Oppo Find X7 Ultra.
From the point of view of software, Vivo is most functions, it is most convenient to use the camera applications in Xiaomi and Samsung.
The tone of the skin in the pictures is yellow most often in Vivo. But this is easily adjusted by the selection of the desired regime. The iPhone has a yellow -green skin, and Samsung has a grayish one. Oppo likes to make faces more ruddy and white. Xiaomi sometimes makes the skin too bright, and sometimes yellowish, but there are times when it correctly guesses colors.
Samsung and iPhone are almost none processing compared to the “Chinese”. The latter often finish the details with the help of AI.

















The iPhone width has the largest view of the view. But otherwise it is bad: in the processing of light, detail, the dynamic range, noise, skip. Surprising is surprisingly good at Samsung, but he has a long endurance and slightly more pronounced glare. Xiaomi and OPPO are removed on the ultra -coal chamber equally bad. As for Vivo, it leads in all respects.
If we talk about the main camera at night, then the dynamic range is worst of the iPhone, and best for Samsung and Vivo. Detailing the worst of the S25 Ultra and the best in X200 Ultra.
Samsung and iPhone TVs are weak, but Vivo has the most universal and advantageous module.
In high resolution mode, Vivo usually gives out the most clear picture. Samsung’s TV and width are better in detail than the iPhone, but in general, when approaching, Oppo is best photographed.
Photos in the portrait mode are the worst of all the iPhone and Samsung. At the same time, the iPhone also crookedly separates the object from the background and the pictures are lubricated in motion.
Conclusion
The iPhone has the longest excerpt, and it works little with persons using algorithms. Samsung has the same situation. Chinese flagships “draw” sometimes too actively, which may not like everyone. The most unstable color rendering when shooting people and working with complex shades of Xiaomi, and Vivo in this case almost always goes into mustard tones.
As for the functions of AI, the iPhone can do nothing but erasing objects. Yes, and it turns out that so -so.
According to the results of the experiment, the best camera application turned out to be Xiaomi, the best quality of the photo, the dynamic range, portrait and the capabilities of AI in Vivo, the most convenient work with AI in Samsung. The iPhone was not a special one in terms of photography.
