Which Phone Wins in Zoom Capabilities, iPhone 16 Pro Max or Samsung?

Question

What is the zoom capability of iPhone 16 Pro Max when compared to Samsung Galaxy s24 Ultra?

Answer 1

Both devices in question come with five times the capability for optical zoom; however, Samsung’s is more resolution and processes zoomed in images much more effectively which is an advantage. A second zoom camera has also been installed on samsung phones with three times zoom, this helps them to maintain quality images in a broader zoom range. What is also impressive about Samsung’s portrait is its accurate depth perception and believable background blur effect. All in all, Samsung sweeps the zoom section.

So for those of you who need a quick summary,

Audio - Apple
Video - Apple
Special Modes - Apple
Selfie - Samsung
Selfie Video - Apple
Camera App - Draw
Editing - Samsung
Zoom - Samsung
Portrait - Samsung
Photos - Apple
Night Mode - Apple

Personal Note : Most important usage of a camera app for me has to be good photo and good content at any point of time. Apple dominates both front and rear content, as well as at night times, and it also is pretty good in rear camera photos, and I'd say I like the front camera of iPhone more, the goldeny look it gives as compared to that of Samsung... So I think the options that some of the options that Samsung won, like Editing is not of much use....
