Samsung S24 Ultra vs iPhone 15 Pro Max Camera Battle! 

Appreciate you guys waiting for this one - I know we're a bit late, but we've done a LOT of testing - just sitting at our monitors scrutinising over 500 side-by-sides from both phones. I saw some rumours of a potential camera update on Samsung's end soon, so I'll keep you posted on Twitter if I notice anything changing, but if not, assume that this result is conclusive!

Just so you know Arun, the S24 Ultra camera results aren't quite to the level that they should be - yet. A fairly major patch is dropping on the 23rd, which apparently fixes a lot of issues especially with zoom and noise.

Is it just me but the audio of mrwhosethebosses video has improved so much this year it sounds like you are watching his videos in a cinema

The best content you got here make curious to watch !!❤❤🎉

Both the cameras are so impressive, it's like having a professional photographer in your pocket

Such a close battle each year between the iPhone and Samsung. The iPhone has proven to be quite boring yet consistent in their image and video quality; while Samsung occasionally does a better job but still a little inconsistent compared to the Apple. Both are great in their own way!

Mehn! The amount of work that went into this video is super impressive. Nice work Chief. First RU-vid Video i didn't fastforward😀 I enjoyed every bit of it

Proud of you! This is extremely informative, and wildly entertaining to watch 😆 I love the home-made clips bro. 10/10😂😂

I feel like the fact that Samsung has a built-in camera remote in the form of the s-pen is also a great comfort factor. I personally use it a lot when shooting those crispy rear camera pictures without necessarily having to ask someone to take them. It's more of a preference thing, but I also think just having that as an option elevates the whole experience a whole lot more.

22:18 you COMPLETELY MISSED IT 😭 ALL that BUILD UP for THIS?! 💀

Please continue making this type of version for comparing the phones..This is one of your cool videos to watch! (I think,I gave a reply to your tweet regarding to the phone comparison video content)

I Been watching your videos for years. You are a great reviewer. I just bought my S24 ultra and can't wait. Your video was very informative

22:30 Seems like Bro just threw a water balloon on it 😂

Quality content as always!

Thanks for your cool comparison and your nice style of filming! What do you think about the 10bit 422 apple log video in comparison with samsungs post production possibilities?

4:00 the good part is that these improvements are already available in the S23 lineup. Great update!

I know with the zoom, Samsung said that people tend to take closer photos and that the 100 time zoom was rarely used. I know I can confirm this with my S23 Ultra. If I ever took a 100x shot, it was just to show someone I could do it. I've never used that photo for anything. That being said, I took a million pictures at around 6x and 7x which looked like poo cause it was using the 3x camera. I think having the 5x vs the 10x camera will be awesome.

Thanks for the detailed explanation

this is a big help deciding which to get.. kudos for your effort👍👏👏👏

This takes camera shoot to a whole new level!!! Props to Arun and his team for taking that extra time to make this video ridiculously entertaining. Looking forward to a Battery test and a full review of the new phone. I might actually want to buy one of these coming from an Samsung A series.

U missed the tank shot lmaoooo

Great video very detail 👌

A similar comparison between the cameras of the regular Samsung S24 and the iPhone 15 would be great, thanks!

It's almost 5 years and l have never seen a video on this channel that's not good, love your content ❤🙏

I've been waiting for this, love your work Arun!!!

Nice video. Im anxiously waiting on my S24 so I watch videos about it. Ha Ha So thank you for taking the time to fill the people in on what's in store.

Mrwhosetheboss is the best RU-vid channel I've ever seen keep it up......

Very excited for the camera comparison ! Arun never disappoints 🤓

I truly love how detailed you get on both phones, thank you 😁

Mr whose the boss you have the worlds 1st highest tech I have ever seen you work very hard for just 1 video.

love how subtle your rickrolls sometimes get

I personally really value the hardware 960fps slow mo and i don't know how did it disappear over the last 5 years. It was such a cool feature, not for shooting stuff for instagram or tiktok but for actually looking at things that are impossible to see without the phone. It is similar type of feature to IR camera or the 10x zoom. They aren't very useful for everyday use but they are irreplacible when you need them.

I've been waiting for this comparison. Thank you Mr. Arun😊

Hey, hey, hey... I agree with almost everything in this video except for the statement about Moon photos. If you've got any of the s20 series phones, and you take a picture of the moon, you're going to be addicted to showing it to people and they are always blown away. It's just so cool.

Great review! 👍

Whoever works in Apple in their video department deserves a medal. The action shot option is god tier. We were filming rc cars racing around, and mounted the Iphone on a car as well. The shot looks like it's those 10K cameras mounted to vehicles.

Loved the video as always! But I have to say that I liked the old studio a lot more. The room with the TV's just had such a cozy vibe and added a lot of character

Your camera comparison format is unmatched. Hands down the easiest to watch and keeps my attention all the way through

You should next time also test voice recorder to see which microphone is more professional.. :) great video..

Lmao the tank shot at the end was so underwhelming 😂

5:19 the new anti-reflective glass is insane

Hi just want to know which one will you choose for making content for youtube and photos for portrait?

looking forward always for your videos..one of the best tech channels here in youtube

I have to say, I've watched a couple of camera comparisons between these two and by far you've done the best. 🎉

Your overall content making skill is genius level.

Hey man, love your videos - but quick question: are the 10x lens shots labelled right? because the s24 looks a LOT sharper and clearer than the s23 ultra with a lot more fine sensor info detail. It almost looks like the labels are switched, at least when looking at other comparisons. if you check this out, thanks in advance.

Arun. With all of these people leaving youtube cus of how hard they work, I think you are no exception. In fact, you might be the most hardworking tech channel. The backgrounds, Ambience, lighting, transitions and all that make your videos stand out and I absolutely love this form of content creating. I just wanted to point this out. So you can have a general idea that all these details you sprinkle in your content have not gone unnoticed.

Great review, it would be great to see a comparisons of these two phones plus the pixel 8 Pro into the mix

A very honest review. That's why you are the Boss!

Wow, first time here. Thank you for giving us informative contents🥰 For sure all the details i need to know about these two phones are satisfying👊

Damn, I was waiting very long for this. Competition's heated up a lot in the high end.

One of the best entertaining every category is well defined

Excellent comparison Arun, you had me smiling the whole time :))

10:35 Hugging Rick Astley poster head is sending me😂Great work Arun on the video

You really need to take more photos and show up. You make it look like theyre all awesome and perfect. It feels like an ad for the phone

great video and a lot less chair bouncing, very unbiased and informative clear and concise explanations and great graphics 10/10

I love this channel, as a fellow techie your videos are an inspiration man for real. What you've achieved with your channel is nothing short of remarkable

Another fun to watch video. Love the unbiased review. Thank you for this!! 💪🙏💯😁

As a videographer, the ability to record in pro res log was MAJOR for me and no other smartphone company is currently competing with Apple when it comes to professional grade smartphone video off of that one feature alone. Personally, more than a ton of features in a phone, I look for the refinement of key features that are important to me, with video quality being a major one.

Hi 👋🏻 Arun, at the moment I’m Using 2 Mobiles 12 Pro Max & Note 10 Plus for about 3 years for my Personal and Business Purposes. I’m planning to Upgrade One of them This Year and I’m Really Confused with which one to go for . What will be Your Personal Suggestions for me to go for 24 Ultra or 15 Pro Max ?

Very nice and polished Video. Was pure fun to watch, thank you. 😊

I love the extra care and effort you put in every one of these camera comparison videos, well done! Idea for a future video, take a few entry level phones, a few midrange ones, and a few high end or flagships and test them using a modded google camera, there are plenty of models that benefit greatly from this liky my old Poco F3 used to for example, but it'll be a lot better if someone professional like yourself did the comparison rather than me.

very immersive and detailed review Arun. thank you so much. great video.

Really appreciate the attention to detail. The artifacts of the iPhone reflection really sux. I hope they get that right on the next phone. I would love to see them battle it out with astrophotography and other examples of long exposure images. Cheers!!

22:23 you missed 😂😂😂

I think in your next comparison it would be good to make the photo, video and night categories all worth 2 points instead of one. Because these are the categories most people use 99% of the time, it seems like they can get drowned out by and count the same as things like slow motion. Still a great video as always!

I do hope that the upcoming big update is really going to fix all the current issues, because i have pre-ordered the S24 Ultra (well i assume that it will be much better than my current S21 Ultra anyway)

The first thing i noticed when his video started os how much juicy this video’s audio is😩❤

Arun, I love the way you present your videos, one of the reasons I don’t like watching other tech reviewers because they don’t present it in a fun casual way, keep up the great content❤

I just realize your number of subscribers lol. That's insane 😂

Great video! I gotta say though, I'm not a tech or a camera snob, so I couldn't say more than "Wow!" to all of the pictures and videos in this video lol. Both phones are good I guess, especially for someone who isn't THAT much into tech and stuff.

Bro the reason i love your videos is -- * The No. 1 video editor you have. * Your video Thumbnail * Your In Depth Analysis about every Tech Product * Your Video Style ❤

There was a report out that said wait till the 1st software update before you do any camera testing, I'm assuming they're going to fix those issues that you're talking about with the zoom, just a thought, you may want to revisit this at a later date.

me watcing this video in 480p 🗿

Good review as always. Though as for me the camera you shot this video with makes the video slightly better than both phones, no offense 🤷🤷🤷. If possible kindly post it here cause it made me feel like I don't want this video to end

On 5:37 you make a misstake.. you can get a second button on screen and that one you can move everywhere on the screen to take foto/video. So you thumb can push it easy Open Camera App: Settings -> Shutter (Auslöser) -> floating shutter button ( no idear what his name is in english)

Most awaited video👀🔥🔥

13:02 Does your Iphone have a crack in the outer Glass on the upper Left camera ??? I zoomed in on the RU-vid picture, and it looked like it...

Thank you so much for the video……but…..i still don’t know what phone too pick even after the comparison 😢😂

These camera test are always super fascinating and makes me curious what improvements each company will make in their next iteration of Galaxy and iPhone respectively. I look forward to inevitable rematch when the iPhone 16 Pro Max comes out since it feels like these cameras are always so close in quality every time Arun compares them, but it’s the little details that makes one emerge over the other.

Been waiting for this video man,thank you for giving a detailed unbiased review 🤝

Can you please make a video on battery drop test,idle drain and throttling test because majority of public including me are looking for that but no one talking about that.i want to buy this but this exynos 2400 not providing that much of confidence.

Welp! Now I know where to come for comparisons & thats that!😂👌🏽

Waiting for this since, finally it’s here ❤❤❤

Can you do like an overall comparaison of the two phones including the cameras, i think that'd be great

Man you said it, really the best comparison, people are saying a lot of things abt S24 ultra camera that its not good and all but its really good and it will get even better after updates

Hi. I have S23U, and my complain is that when I record 4k video, the colors look oversaturated and washed out. Would you confirm if colors are more natural when recording video with S24U?

Arun's Camera Comparisons are always so detailed and spot on! There are so many small features and characteristics of each camera that would never have crossed the mind of a user. Always am stocked to watch these videos in particular, keep up the amazing work Arun!

This was a unique and very entertaining video as well as informative. LOVED IT!

Seriously...thing I appreciate about this video the most is that its interesting to watch and not just the regular, boring, lazy, carbon copy talking head video with blurred cyan and orange background . Thank you for putting something into it.

For the Moon Foto from IPhone you need to lower exposure and than you can see the Moon Details

At the end it was like Mrwhosetheboss samsung - It was always me

Its videos like these that remind me why I think you are the best tech reviewer on the planet. Hands down top tier

You're balanced perfectly with those High brand image

8:03 The background and the color combination is just beautiful. Subtle but beautiful

5:31 use one hand mode it works even in camera, this is one thing which everyone forgets, one ui is made with one hand usage in mind for example u can open control panel with one hand (by swiping anywhere on home screen) which i didnt saw anywhere else

You should do a summary battle between the two phones, with ‘Camera’ being a category by itself, with ‘UI interface’, ‘Usability’, ‘Battery’ etc…

Mrwhosetheboss you are the best youtuber ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😍
