![]() The iPhone 7 Plus uses a new quad-LED (dual tone) flash system and we noticed that it tends to be a bit imposing. Samsung Galaxy S7 edge – 1, Apple iPhone 7 Plus – 0įor the flash test, we used a well-trimmed bush as the subject and cast harsh light on it. We are using our subjective expertise here to adjudge the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge the winner here. Therefore, while the Galaxy S7 edge offers a better fidelity possibly due to its larger sensor, the iPhone 7 Plus has a more pleasing image. One thing to note here is that both the cameras do a fab job of keeping the barrel distortion in check despite the weird angle. Also, if you take a look at the trees at the edge closely, you will notice that the Galaxy S7 edge’s sample has more details. Interestingly enough, the S7 edge manages to keep the noise in check. ![]() In this test, the Galaxy S7 edge blows out the highlights thanks to the fact that it uses a higher ISO. The iPhone does a superb job of keeping the contrast in check and the colours are really balanced as well. The iPhone 7 Plus uses a much lower ISO setting of ISO250, compared to the ISO800 used by the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. We used a well lit building against the backdrop of the night sky to test the cameras. This is yet another tough round where both the cameras shine in one or the parameter over the other. Samsung Galaxy S7 edge – 0, Apple iPhone 7 Plus – 1 Night shot The iPhone 7 Plus edges (no pun intended) the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge in this round. While you can use the manual mode to control the ISO setting on the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge, we are evaluating both the cameras for their Auto mode performance considering that is the mode most smartphone users are going to stick to anyway. This means that the Galaxy S7 edge sample has lot more noise, whereas the iPhone 7 Plus camera messes with the exposure again, over-exposing it ever so slightly. What the iPhone 7 Plus does in this image is it uses a lower ISO 80 setting to capture the image, whereas the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge uses ISO250. Samsung Galaxy S7 edge – 1, Apple iPhone 7 Plus – 0 Low lightįor this test we used a setting where both the phones were presented with less than ideal light to play with the staircase was only lit by the light creeping in from an open door on the right. The Samsung Galaxy S7 edge wins this round by a hair. Having said that, the background in the iPhone 7 Plus shot has a pinkish hue that looks a bit distracting. However, the iPhone 7 Plus’ sample shot is more in line with the actual colour of the flower. On closer inspection you will notice that the yellow in the flower is a little more saturated in the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge sample compared to the iPhone 7 Plus. Both the phones do a great job with definitions around the yellow flower’s petals. We’ve used a yellow flower as a sample here. This one is quite tricky, because on normal inspection any layman will not find a stark difference between the two shots. Samsung Galaxy S7 edge – 1, Apple iPhone 7 Plus – 0 Close-up shot in daylight Overall, we think this round goes to the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. The Samsung Galaxy S7 edge’s 12MP shooter does capture more details, though. ![]() However, the colour saturation is a little more accurate on the iPhone 7 Plus. The first thing that we noticed is that the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge handles the exposure much better than the iPhone 7 Plus the iPhone’s 12MP shooter has overexposed the image making the image look duller. In this test, we shot the fairly busy Golf Course Road in Gurgaon. Right click on the image and open it in a new tab to see the full resolution image. Please note: All the images on the left are captured by a Samsung Galaxy S7 edge and on the right are captured by the iPhone 7 Plus. On paper, both the iPhone 7 Plus and the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge each have their advantages and therefore we won’t rate them on the specs alone we’ll look at the camera samples instead. With respect to video, both the phones can shoot UHD (2160p) videos at 30fps and 720p slow motion video at 240fps. The Galaxy S7 edge shoots at a lower 5MP resolution but has a wider f/1.7 aperture and can accommodate more people in the frame thanks to its 22m wide-angle lens. It uses a 7MP sensor with an f/2.2 aperture and can go as wide as 32mm. The iPhone 7 Plus has a better selfie camera – resolution-wise.
