FIGHT FOR BLOOD!!!
There’s an interesting fixation on dedicated cameras which seems to exist at the bookends of photography. While I try to highlight how good our smartphone cameras have gotten, we see groups of influencers playing with old point and shoot cameras. At the other end of the spectrum, no matter how good a phone sensor might be, we often hear from photographers that you can’t beat a “proper” zoom lens.
I really didn’t want to spend money on an old point and shoot, but while cleaning out a box of old gear, I found my old Samsung Galaxy Camera. The battery had turned into a spicy pillow, but prying it out, I was able to track down a replacement and get the camera working again.

Pixel 8 Pro vs OnePlus 12!
It’s a battle fought in premium territory.

OnePlus Open vs Surface Duo 2!

Galaxy S23 Ultra vs Vivo X90 Pro Photo Showdown!
What’s REALLY better for image quality, more resolution or a bigger sensor?
I feel the WOW-WORTHY-RESOLUTION claims from Samsung a little troubling. The best way to test this MEGAPICKLE claim? We gotta compare the Note 23 against a PHOTO CHAMP!
The Vivo X90 Pro is ready for a fight. Will FOUR TIMES MORE PICKLES take down the 1″ sensor on the Vivo?

We’ve got a LOT to talk about!
The OnePlus embargo has lifted, and I believe this is one of the best “performance per dollar” phones available in North America. I shot a round up of smaller videos to chat about the 11, and also compare it against some other top tier devices.

Camera video torture test! Let’s shoot some HEAVY video!
Looking at the concerns from other reviewers, people are wondering if the XPERIAs this year are overheating. Is this a “problem”, or should we be more concerned with video quality? Lining up phones to shoot 4k at 60fps and 4K at 120fps, we can build some data to predict how long a phone SHOULD last out in the field.
XPERIA 5IV, OnePlus 10 Pro, Axon 40 Ultra, Pixel 6A, and the Xiaomi 12S Ultra!
If you’re relying on a phone to capture memories or get work done, it’s critical we know how hard we can drive that phone for real work. Let’s see how long we can shoot before these phones tap out!

A new one inch sensor against a crazy co-processor. Triple camera vs quad camera! ZEISS vs LEICA!
This is one of the most brutal comparisons I’ve ever produced. We’ve crossed a new tier in phone camera performance and these two phones are at the BLEEDING EDGE.
