Samsung Galaxy S21

People are saying that these phones detect that moon is the subject, and fake the image. This photo was taken when the phone was handheld.

Huawei did do that though with the P30 or Mate 30.

Seems like Samsung is doing something similar Is Samsung's Galaxy S21 Ultra using AI to fake detailed Moon photos?

And just to reiterate there’s no image overlays at any point during image processing (before, during, and after a shot is taken), Samsung told me “the Scene Optimizer process is not overlaying any textures or adding fake images.”

If Samsung has come this far, it should be blowing Pixel and iPhones out of the water. Quite literally. But the videos captured by S21 Ultra have noise, and aren't even close to iPhones. Strange.

I think it could be a problem with Android itself. Even google with all it's computational photography prowess couldn't do it. Huawei with its own silicon couldn't do it.

Seems like Samsung has done it. A well balanced phone. Let's see how OnePlus 9 Pro compares against the competition.

I checked out S21 Ultra last week and I noticed a few things that confused me.

1. Videos digitally zoom in when you are recording in 4K @ 60 fps and the quality is shit. Only the camera work I guess.

2. When you zoom in at 1080p, the camera switching is so damn jerky, nothing is quality about it. On the other hand iPhone switches to the telephoto and back to the main lens smoothly.

And the photos looked pretty mediocre in front of pixels. 🙄

If they partner with Instagram to optimize their videos better for that app, it would be more sensible than all this PR crap.

Since I have used an older Ultra device of a friend, I've been leaning towards Samsung for its consistent performance. I really wish it could do seemless switching between the cameras though.

Is the S21 ultra a good buy at around 70k? Have to decide by December.
