Camera Shootout: Xiaomi 13 Pro vs Honor Magic 5 Pro vs S23 Ultra 

I still think you're one of the most unbiased reviewers out there. I also like how you show so much of the culture in the places you go when doing these camera shootouts. 💪🏽💪🏽

Ben's camera comparison nowadays is like travel vlog+camera test ...different places for different tests :)

Thanks for the hard work Ben ,this is a very helpful comparison .

Three of the world's best smartphone cameras out there! Nice comparison video man, great job!

Been looking forward to your take on the Honor Magic 5 Pro! Can’t wait for this one

My no 1 guy for any phone review. Keep up the good work 💯

Love your camera comparisons! Do you have any plans to do a day in the life series? That would be amazing! 💞

Thanks for the video comparison, so far the only one I have seen comparing these 3 models at once Would love to see photo comparison between these phones too! Based on this video, undoubtedly S23U is still the best all-rounder video shooter despite lacking the bigger sensor.

Love your comparison and the tourist trip! Great video and very insightful. Brought a lot of memories from my trip to Thailand 10 years ago

Hey @bensgadgetreviews, I really loved it how you introduced how the original scene looks to naked eyes before the photos are taken. Great stuff.

eyy the comparison video that I been waiting for, keep up the great content! Ben

This helps a lot in choosing my next phone thanks Ben! Love the content 💞

As always great work and to the point Ben, thanks man!

amazing review ben as always! keep up the good work brother:)

dude, i love how you showed us what it was like in low light conditions with your camera then showing us the photos !! lot of low light photos and videos, with no night mode (amazing), nice places... good shots that shows strength and cons of every devices (and even more in the low light scenarios, videos and photo wise), same in day time very very good love your videos dude keep up the good and honest work, can't wait for honor magic 6 pro review

Ohhhh competition is getting pretty goood. Still rocking my Xiaomi 11T, looking forward to getting the 13 Pro

I loved the review. Thank you so much, Ben.

Been loving your videos for a year or so, keep going! I believe the mic in the Honor tries to capture audio that the camera is shooting when you zoom, so audio around the phone is almost non existent.

Based on DxO mark's no 1, I expected a lot more from Honor, but found Xiaomi and Samsung better in most situations. Great shootout as always Ben, thank a lot for making these honest reviews.

Great work, mate, as always. Keep it up, buddy.

I really enjoyed this camera phones shoot out. I never laughed this much before. Great work as always ! 👏

All three did great! Would have been nice to see the X90 Pro+ in this comparison as well! But great video as always!

Great work as always. I can't wait to get my hands on the Honor Magic.

Have been a fan to you channel for many years, glad to see you visit BKK. Enjoy your stay. PS. It's funny that you have the sample pics of our infamous messy cable in the city.

Great comparison Ben! How does Honor's camera performance compare to the Vivo x90 pro plus?

This is real tech journalism, you go to the field and you use the phone in real world, you don't hide in your controlled environment and churn out content like a lot of so called RU-vid tech journos

Honors audio at 10x zoom is the audio zoom feature. Probably can be deactivated or should be deactivatable in settings. Samsung Galaxy s23 Ultra by default is also doing that btw. Also I did not get the video part as zoom buttons are available on Honor aswell to switch directly. Why Honor only allows switching between front and back cams on Honor 70 and not the flagships is really really odd.

Great review as always! Would love to see a video where you compare the software features for photo / video editing on different android flavours / brands, as i feel like the overall camera performance for everyday users is good enough on all mid and high end phones nowadays. I have been with OnePlus for the past years and would be interested what other brands offer in terms of additional features.

Ben, as always congratulations. I was thrilled with this one-inch sensor but in the end, at night the shots are unrealistic, too much light. in the end the difference with a competitor sensor is a little more depth of field and the natural boke effect. From my point of view it doesn't seem like the famous game changer. Is it true that xiaomi doesn't have hdr in portrait shots? Thank you .

Amazing camera comprising as always Ben's bro

Oh, yeah, camera comparison with a reference! Love it!

As always great work Ben 👏👍

thank you, I have been waiting this video for weeks^^

great video! Looking forward to the Honor 5 vs Vivo X90 pro+ comparison!

Thanks for this...as always your content is so great and fair..keep up the good work...saludos from Colombia!

Great review Ben I get the feeling Samsung went for the 200 megapixel approach more for marketing clout than actual performance.

You were in my hometown? Welcome to Bangkok:) Hope you enjoy your stay. Nice vid as always:)

Thanks, how do you compare the camera of Vivo X90 Pro Plus and Honor Magic 5 Pro?

Wow grate job bro u are my favorite on videos keep up the grate work stay safe!

Xiaomi 13 pro looks great in night. Overall i think xiaomi 13 pro is a good option against s23 ultra.

Nice, that was a great comparison. The one thing I dislike about pretty much all smartphone camera videos is the kind of jitteriness when panning across things. I don't know why, but none of the phones here did a particularly good job of panning. While I'm not a fan of iPhones, I think they're the only ones which can pan without that skippy jitteriness. Then again, maybe I'm wrong. Hard to tell.

Ben, did Xiaomi mentioned something about portrait video? Or the sensor is big enough to do that natively.

Awesome video 🙏 thank you brother for you hard work

Thank you, my friend, for reviewing the phones. I want to buy the S23 Ultra or Xiaomi 13 Pro. You advise me in one

Excellent review man you deserve better 😊🙏

If you want pure unbiased fact this guy brings you that. An absolutely fantastic reviewer. No bias , just the facts and honest.

Can't wait to get my hands on the Honor. It's photos look superb and the phone is a beauty.

Was waiting for this

Can I ask you a question? Have you ever had any connection issues with other phones etc? I had with the Honor magic 4 Pro and have returned it to my phone supplier in the UK. ( Three)

Great review. PS. welcome to my country, wish u have a good trip.

having tested all these top phones, including of course Vivo X90 pro plus, Pixel 7 pro etc, which would you use as main device? The choice must include not only camera performance but also daily use (software, battery, calls, bugs etc)

Please have a camera comparison between the Huawei Mate 50 Pro and Honor Magic 5

Those powerline are mostly arrangely better than in my country the Philippines,🤣😱 but good review ben as always! these are the 3 monsters along with vivo and pixel on android phones..im scared for whats comes next bit by bit there's no more room for innovations 😳

Welcome to Thailand Ben 🇹🇭 I'm amused that you zoom those cables 🤣

Very good video as usual:) I think Samsung has really improved their video this year.

I'm gonna wait to see how the mate 60 gonna deal with that "contrast thing" [IF it gonna get imx989] and decide between honor /samsung /huawei cause xiaomi still to do some homework with the software pic process... PS.: is there any specific reason why the s23 & magic5 changes the voice volume while video rec and changing lenses??

Very Good Comparison video... After seeing your footage of Thailand I think I might take a short vacation there sometime this year 😉 I was gonna buy the Honor Magic 5 Pro but managed to get a good deal on the S23 Ultra 512 GB (Black) with the Galaxy Buds2 Pro here in the U.K.

What color science did you use for the X13 Pro(Authentic or Vibrant)? Quite impressed with X13 Pro especially its natural bokeh from just having bigger sensor. The color science is quite there too, almost no edits or color tweaking necessary. Also, KUDOS to you for bringing all those gadgets with you in those streets. That took guts!

i subscribed off the back of this video. I would also like to see some more controlled tests, where the same tripod mounting position, etc is used. Like a photograph session setup. Also, it would be great to see some larger group shots. I had a P20 pro and took some beautiful photos with its 40mp mode of large group shots on camp. It was golden hour and everyone sat still and the results were amazing, especially in 2018.

Welcome to Thailand Mr.Ben ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻

All 3 phones are truly great! I feel the Samsung came on top here though. I was really expecting the Honor to do better, due to that top DXO mark! Superb comparison Ben! 👏 You skilfully fit in so many different shot scenarios! Nicely done as always and thank you for that tour of Bangkok! ✌ Those ribs looked delicious, no wonder they vanished. 😄 Wow 8 dollars!

Enjoying your comparison of the devices. Still waiting for Xiaomi 13 Pro availability here in Singapore.

Great comparison bro❤️

Do any of these phone have the huawei capability pitch dark nightmode to bright up a pitch dark room its only huawei p40 pro that could do that, no other phone can, is it still the case ? The s23 ultra cant i tried.

Great video. You did a good job

Great video Ben. To sum it up, if you had to choose one as daily driver largely based on camera performance, which one would it be?

The best channel when comes to camera review. Praiser here again.😊

Nice review Ben. Definitely stay off the taxi bikes in Bangkok :)

Great video. What about the 8k video?

Hi ben, did u think the mate 50 pro its a better cam than s23u?

if s23 could have the low light and back light tratament that honor do...but back lights always do the samsungs go to the shit... Do you know when the honor 5 pro will be able in europe? or something about honor magic 5 ultra? thanks

why not including X90 pro+??? would like to have it comparing to Honor. Ps. That is not power cables... it is telecom cable. Power cables are either on top of the poles or now actually moved underground.

very helpfully compairison video review...thanks ben

Yes. More camera shoot outs and content. Give me a reason to get a different brand plz Ben lol

​@ben's gadget reviews I like the xiaomi 13pro phone, but low light and night time photography is important for me too. I've noticed in many other reviews too that xiaomi pictures turn out very dark at night. So I want to ask, did you shoot them in Leica authentic or Leica vibrant mode? And did you put it in dedicated night mode? How does that compare? More insight in this aspect would allow me to make a final decision on which one to get :) Thanks!

Great comparison.. How di rate the xiaomi 13 pro vs pixel 7 Pro vs x90 pro in camera and video as well

Awesome comparison Ben, I'm still rocking a UK exynos s22 ultra, really surprised me how much the camera has improved in the s23 ultra. Maybe a combination of the new lenses and the Snapdragon processing, but everything seems way more polished (especially night-time videos, which frankly suck on the s22 ultra). But, I bought the s22 ultra outright and plan to keep it for at least 3 generations so hopefully the s25 ultra is that much better again haha

Excellent comparison Ben! I believe many people are struggling on which one to buy among these 3 (or 4 if including X90 Pro+). S23 U may have firmware updated since it has been launched earlier and hence more stable.

But you don't have to take a photo, if the camera says to shot with night mode on the S23 Ultra. Hit the half moon shape off, and you'll get a great shot with no lag in shutter.

Great comparision. That food ham ham. I'm loving my S23U.

Great comparison test mobile phone's camera with special things vlog in Thailand. Many situation can show how different of each phone. 👍

5:09 I was at around the Same time at the Same Market lol. I traveled there from Austria ^^ Awesome Video as always 🤙

Ben's hanging around where I usually go. Phrom Phong area near Sukhumvit 24. Go to Jodd Fairs on the weekends. 05:48 - I see you visited Angel's Smoothie stand. Don't forget try the 16 baht boat noodles in the Victory Monument area. See you there Ben!

Hey dude, how were you able to get the Honor Magic 5 Pro in Thailand?

great review bro!!!

All 3 phones seem to be the best in android for cameras...which do u use?

hey. chrome on my PC is showing THIS video at 24FPS. is this normal? all his pan shots are so choppy!

Hi Ben can the Honor magic 5 Pro camera be voice activated. Thanks

Nice work Ben

Thanks for the comparison. For me.. and this is subjective.. S23 Ultra

how long is the OS and security support of xaiomi and honor?

Thank you very much for your honest work! Please tell us: does Honor offer the same good phone and camera experience as Huawei did back in the day? I owned a Huawei P30 and I was very happy. Virtually no bugs encountered in 4 years of ownership... I'm thinking on buying Honor as hey still have Google services. I'm also considering a cheap Xiaomi Redmi 13 Pro+, but my first call with it dropped 3 times... So maybe not the best option if you want a stable platform. Have a great day forward!

Great stuff. I was hoping Honor will dominate, but I guess that can't happen anymore. All phones are gonna be somewhat similar at the top.

All three are pretty good in good lighting conditions. And all three are good at selfies. I guess they have similar camera modules and its obvious on what datasets to train. But in low light you can dafinitely see the difference. Samsung is more versatile. And it looks like it just have more resources in tweaking different types of shots. On the close 2nd place is Xiaomi in my opinion. And Honor is close 3rd.

Ben ignore the haters, you are the GOAT of these type of comparisons. I have a controversial opinion about the creamy bokeh at 7:59, for shots of people I think the bokeh enhances the shot, but for shots of things I often end up thinking that the bokeh is just missed focus. I wonder if this is due to the fact that the bokeh effect we see on phones is a mix of natural and software whereas on DSLR Cameras it's all natural. I Either way my eye is drawn to the crispness of the S23 Ultra shot. Thanks for all your hard work in making these videos. Could you include a comparison of moving animals or people in your next comparison? It's the one thing I think is letting my S23 Ultra down, I just can't get a good shot of a dog or person walking etc....

Good job bro !

Please guve link to the source photo, it is interesting to see and compare

Welcome to Thailand ❤

I think the Xiaomi has more capabilities. The sensor is great, especially in low light or when bokeh is needed. The different Leica filters are interesting. The sensor does not need kind of 'over sharpening'.
