They DO have worse camera hardware, but we all know that doesn't translate 100% to actual use. It'll be hard to find situations where other phones with better hardware will actually produce better photos, and in all honesty, we've reached a spot where little to no difference can be noticed in such small screens anyway. We're in a plateau where phones are concerned.
S**t, i am about to acquire a new phone. Hesitation is between Iphone 17, Google Pixel 10 Pro XL and Oneplus 15, mostly. I would like the phone to take excellent photos and videos, but almost every reviewer tells that photos and videos are worse than the ones from the direct competitors. Well, i am a bit surprized watching this video...
true because if you ask me, I have OnePlus ace 2 pro here it's a freaking china only phone with SD 8 Gen 2 but with 50mp this is all I need because it's already giving good shots for camera and good gaming performance, that's why my only option when I want to upgrade is OnePlus or Xiaomi now because even with Xiaomi 11t in Dimensity 1200, 108mp is already good enough for everyday use
@arthursilva2005 I am late to this conversation , but I have Enhancer for RUclips Installed. If I scroll down, the video player turns in a popup window removing the profile image, try it if you want
OnePlus compared decently with samsungs Auto mode which is samsungs weakest photo mode. If you use expert raw, default images set to 24 megapixels and the final image to jpeg, while keeping everything set to auto it is night and day difference vs auto.
Everyone's downplaying the camera too much but if you check out the camera comparison on iphone 17 and oneplus 15, it isn't as bad as what people are saying. You're not gonna use camera everyday anyway, they might as well buy an actual camera if they care too much.
Same . Because I have the Google Pixel 9Pro XL and hate low light front camera, I have a OnePlus 9pro and been eye the 13 but never got because I have a Pixel and I've been looking at OnePlus 15 and I am going to get it in Kenya. But the social media thing can be thrown out the test all together. That has to be the dumbest test category. I will basically always use the actual camera setting unless it's Snapchat for the geo features. Nyali centre, club Hypnotica (I spend a lot of time clubbing) the camera setting on the Google won't allow the time or anything text wise unlike the oppo system. OnePlus is in the same system so I can have the time, phone, etc in different parts of the screen (something I miss having a lot) plus Kenyans use TikTok WAY more than IG and I actually deleted mine like a year ago. One short 30 second category of social media for an app.. come on bro 🤦🏽♂️
@PolyT-t3ithe oneplus 13 will be bad for your tiktoks if your using selfie cam, the lack the autofocus yeah so it sucks and video chat is blurry which thats the reason I had to buy the oneplus15. Kinda funny how people compare the cameras but no one test them in video chat so we know how well apps utilize the camera but yeah the oneplus 15 selfie cam has autofocus.
Why is there never a category for RF (radio) performance - how well or badly the device connects to the mobile network? After all, that is one of the key parameters for a mobile phone. All of the other stuff is not much use if your device won't connect to a weaker mobile or wifi signal.
Most reviewers are out of touch millionaires. Mkbhd straight up forgets to mention price half the time. On his case channel he considers eighty thousand dollars a bargain for a car. Much rather reviewers like this that understands the audience.
U dunno anything about silicon carbon. They are not slacking 😂. And pixel is not a big company at all yet. Anyways silicon carbon is neither more expensive nor better than lithium ions. They are found to be degrading faster and don't match their numbers in capacity at all. So there is a lot of testing that needs to be done yet. And none of these big companies manufacture batteries. Chinese phones don't care about long term. They are flexing with silicon carbon
Apple and Samsung are cautious about using silicon-carbon batteries due to faster capacity degradation over 2-3 years, safety concerns (expansion/swelling risks), and the potential for increased regulatory hurdles for shipping higher-capacity batteries, especially after past battery incidents like the Note 7. Chatgpt
Really like this testing style. Everyone was crying about the OP15 camera downgrade like it's literal trash and ignoring how vastly better it is in every other category but watching this I would be perfectly fine with this camera. I think ppl are way too obsessed with that aspect to, especially just what's "best" and not even looking at specific things. I'm on a OP13 so I probably will wait a bit for other options but from a 12 or another phone it's an absolute beast
Unless its side by side, I think its really hard to differentiate phone cameras nowadays. They all look pretty good. No wonder everyone gets 'fooled' on blind tests
13:55 it's crazy all the hate OnePlus 15 cameras are getting when these pictures look pretty amazing. Also Crazy you ranked it 3rd when it looked far better in most pics lol
They are good but I think the main issue is they don't look close to real life which isn't obvious when watching these videos. It's only when you take the photo yourself and see the subject IRL vs what the phone took that you notice. So it's personal preference if you like an oversaturated and vibrant look vs more realistic looking. Would recommend testing the phones out yourself before buying.
@midnightdetective95 I guess still everyone is complaing about the camera but it is still good and after updates it will get improve a lot more, you will not get a worst camera at least so its a good deal
Yes, I was surprised how sharp OP15 images are in this comparison. OP has often had better cams than Samsung, but it beats Pixel flagship too!? Colors and tones can be corrected or changed in edit. Sharpness fix is much more difficult to get right.
@midnightdetective95 he says its a bit oversaturated in some pics but not all. Also in some cases it's the most realistic looking. I don't think it was ever that far off
Hey, I need your suggestion. I’m planning to buy the Pixel 10 Pro - would you recommend it? I have a toddler and love capturing her moments. I’m currently using the Samsung S23 Ultra, but its low-light performance hasn’t been great for me. Thanks 😊
Great video! Just wish customer service was compared too. My OnePlus 13’s official wood-grain case didn’t protect the edges, was almost impossible to remove (gave me a blister), and the screen cracked. Support bounced me around for months. Hardware = great, support… not so much.
Pixel call screening is amazing. I have not had a spam call in years since the Pixel 4. I owned an 8 and 10 Pro since then. Got a 6a for my mother and she has also not had any spam calls. Which is a big deal because she's nearly 80 years old and just does not understand some things.
It's kind of hard to believe that this is not a sponsored video as his statement seems very contradicting he said all of em are loaned by those companies but still giving it the benefit of a doubt...
OnePlus fast charging is simply a game changer. It's the reason why my OP12 is in hand 90% of the time vs my S25 Ultra, Pixel 10 Pro Fold, or 16 Pro max. But I am not even certain there are enough added features in the OP15 to justify an upgrade from the 12.
I am going for the upgrade to OP15 considering the current phone I m using is a 5 year old One Plus 8T and it's still working great. (Typing on it btw) But battery now sucks
Great content. I love my s24 ultra. With Bluetooth s pen. Anti-glare screen, power share. I was gonna get the s25 ultra in January but in december I decided to get the s24 ultra. After I heard the rumor about no Bluetooth in the s pen. I love using it for group photos. Now as for the qi2 magnets in a phone. I'm sure you know as well everyone else, that most people put there phone in a case, and every case I have has built-in magnets. Now if you rock a phone naked then either your a RUclipsr that has lots of phone's or has the money that if the phone gets messed up so what I'll just get a new one. I'm sure that most people get one phone per 2 to 3yrs. And if you want to keep your home screen Anti-glare and use a glass screen protector get a matte glass screen protector it works fantastic with it.
People keep talking about how bad the cameras are but to me this is very great of quality they are pulling from that sensor so why are people talking trash about the phone this is the most balanced phone have seen this year
@MithunOnTheNet Low light on any smart phone is going to suffer. Every smart phone on the market has tiny sensors, some companies try to get around that with AI processing shenanigans.. but it doesn't change how cameras operate on a fundamental level
22:53 , I used the thermometer on the Pixel 8 Pro quite a few times, and most of the time I used it to see the room's temperature, or overall temperature outside, even water temperature of the pool, to see if a radiator is working, and last time to take the temperature of water when making bread
Maybe just a skill issue... (just kidding) - I had a pretty good experience with the camera so far! I'm sure there are some edge cases that are better on Pixel, Samsung, or OnePlus, but for most normal shooting, the main difference I noticed was saturation
I am stil used to Samsung. Software and hardware, so unless there is a killer feature I don't see myself switching. And after S24 the software is updated for a looong time.
The killer feature is that you could make the phone last 2 days on a single charge while heavily using it or if you're a light user, 2.5/3 days is not a problem at all which is a far cry from what you have right now. There's also the fact that I only typically charge my phone for 10 to 15 minutes while eating and that's more than enough. That's something the competition can't do
Not picking on Mike here because it seems like everyone does it but the included year of gemini advanced with the Pixel pro is almost always blown past like it's no big deal when it's a feature that normally costs $19.99/mo. I haven't used it so I don't know if it's worth that much or anything close, but still.
An important specification that is missing from most reviews is GPS channel (L1, L2, L5) coverage, GPS accuracy and how many decimal places are stored in the X, Y and Z coordinates that are stored in the exif data stored in the photos. Many phone truncate the number of digits so that the phone doesn't save the location to anywhere near the native accuracy of the phone. They can be off by over 300 ft. I often need to know where a photo was taken so this is a big fail for me.
Because OnePlus was known for than way back when you could buy their top of the line for $499! And some people will ALWAYS say Oneplus doesn't have as good as a camera. I could care less about smartphone phones because they all use tiny little sensors that are just good for snap shots! I have bigger sensor cameras with MANY TIMES the sensor size - REAL CAMERAS - Not Toys! But, in this review, if I was making my decision solely on the cameras performance, I would buy the ONEPLUS 15 ! It looked great! ... And I'd save hundreds in the process!
It’s your choice but oneplus has higher resolution so even it is more powerful it cant output 165hz as oneplus and oneplus has has the fastest ram time in the market as well has highest touch sampling rate if up 3200 hz due to there touch response chip. And in gaming test oneplus is more optimized and stable while gaming if you compare it to Samsung or any other phones by using FPS meter
@BisheshDhaubhadel-b2iwdym One plus has higher resolution? Galaxy Flasghips always has 1440p resolution. And I'm not talking about One plus here...I'm talking about "Snapdragon for Galaxy".
@diggedboy2333 I don't think one plus can beat Samsung in Customization, Samsung Goodlock app will always give you options it can even customize animations. And the problem about One Plus is that it is not optimized on socmed apps like Galaxy Flagships and iPhone and what more Samsung offered 7 years of OS, better security (Samsung knox), better Galaxy AI and One UI still the best if not the best but most popular UI reliable android skin as of now. And in Popularity One plus is not comparable to Samsung.
Until 1+ gets this phone into US carriers they are never gonna make a dent. Most people here get their phones from carriers. I am different. I pay cash.
Yeah, debt culture here in the US is wild. But I'll be buying the OnePlus 15 outright soon. They likely won't ever be picked up again by carriers. A quick Google search says T-Mobile dropped them due to poor sales, customer issues with the devices (OnePlus 7 Pro), and OnePlus themselves saying that they want to focus on direct to consumer sales.
I'm with spectrum ,and I have the anytime upgrade ,I can change my phone at will ,I wish they had this phones like the oppo ,one plus ,red magic ,trust me Samsung is a beast ,but I wish to try this other brands
you know, they used to do that for a couple years there, I'm not exactly sure why they stopped! not only that but I think they still do on their budget phones, just not on their flagships. not sure why
10:00 😂 Mike seems to have an anti-Pixel bias. The Pixel doesn't get nearly as dim as the other two? The Pixel and OnePlus look identical on my screen.
Looks like it. I agree about the performance aspect but the pixel has the better portrait and low light pictures. I know it's subjective, but the details in the hair is what I look at in pictures and the pixel was the most detailed. Hair on the one plus seems out of focus to me.
Maybe look into the Oneplus 13. Despite the number jump (13 to 15) it actually came out earlier this year. Its specs aren't as cutting edge as the 15 but the camera is better.
Looks rosey for the Oneplus until your messages and notifications come through 8 hours late. Which is what happened to me on the OP13. Sent it back to Oneplus twice and both devices had delayed notifications.
That was one of the best comparisons thanks a lot I almost pulled the plug on the pixel but after seeing those photos and video I really like the OnePlus it basically takes pictures how I already adjust my photos after I take a picture I wouldn't have to do anything 😎👌
Same, had mine since launch and it's been really solid for me. I'm planning to change the battery next month and hopefully keep it until 2027 then upgrade to either the 11 Pro XL or 12 Pro XL
LOLOL, WHO CARES! I'm always using my phone in my hand, never on the table! If that's why you buy that phone? - I feel sorry for you! There are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many other features that are FAR MORE meaningful and useful than the WOOOOBLE! heehee! That's s a d .
Just got mine for a similar price. Best device out at the moment. The value you get for money on this device is simply unmatched. I switched from OnePlus BTW. Just miss the native app lock feature. Secure Folder is not the same. I don't want my data partitioned and encrypted.
Will putting a different launcher (ie.lawnchair or Smart launcher) om a pixel 10 pro effect its performance or interfere witj any of the apps in any way?
Don't know about One plus but I've been using extra dim mode on my samsung for years now. I even have it on my Lenovo tab so I just assumed it's an Android thing & nothing to do with a specific UI
Yeah that's why I included the scorecard! You can adjust the scores as needed. Sales could make the S25+ go from third to first in pricing and thus change the final outcome!
Two things I don't recall hearing in this video. You showed pitcher stuff , but not video stuff. Like how are they in low light video. And how are the speakers while on a phone call with somebody. I have the samsung s 20 ultra. While the speaker's to hear music is okay. The speaker for phone calls sucks.
If Google ever learns where to place the power button and allows the Google search bar to be moved from the bottom of the screen, i would probably try one out. Until then, Samsung for me. Also, T-Mobile offers satellite connection for emergencies on Samsung. Not just Verizon
The S25 Ultra also supports satellite messaging (SOS) on T-Mobile as well, provided you have a plan that supports it, or add it separately on plans that don't. VZW lost me years ago.
hopefully in an update they would change that. I get its to save battery, but if i want to murder my battery thats my right. Thanks for joining my ted talk clippie.
@jfralick100 it was intended to work like that there is no reason to need 165 fps outside of gaming it is not noticable and it is just a marketing tactic by one plus (they just needed something to make people talk about them) they have nothing other than that they can open and close apps fast
Actual useful feature for me would be aquatouch for those quick reply to urgent messages & u don't have to search a towel to dry your hand before texting. And 2nd would be the alert slider, which is very sad they removed, during the meeting I could put my phone in silent or vibration mode without taking them out of my pocket. Best feature in any smart phone & used to be onplus's signature.
One thing that drives me nuts with the Google phones is that you HAVE to use Chromecast. That has been a big deterrent for me. I haven't tried the new phones. Is that still what has to be used, or can you Miracast now?
That One+ IR blaster is a really cool feature I never thought to be useful. I've got 10 devices loaded on my One+ Open. Mom's house TV, Sis house TV, Timeshares, Vacation Trailer, my TV's & Stereo @ home.
Except for the ones that were really washed out! Oh, and those ones that weren't in focus - But focus isn't critical! Fuzzy focus photos are fine, right?! Better look BETTER, Bro! LOL Pixel 10 photos were the worst of the three! OPEN YOUR EYES AND MIND! .... You're biased.
I always need the IR blaster so it would be the One Plus 15. I currently have the One Plus 13 after over a decade of getting flagship Samsungs. I am not too fussed about photos as I am not a professional. Also I love strong batteries.
OnePlus 15 shouldn't be compared with S25Ultra. It's a $900 vs $1300, phone. It should be compared with S25/S25+. OnePlus 15 beat it in every category. Even camera. 😏
Lil tip you can get the chinese version (flashed with global os) for like 500 bucks, same hardware. The site even tells you what the differences are, sometimes soke things are less compatible but i heavily recommend TradingShenzen
I use the thermometer to check my baby's temperature and it's usually accurate I test it then use my actually thermometer and it's usually pretty accurate but I take 3 readings to be sure
There is no perfect phone. Just returned my pixel Samsung too boxy Don't agree with the quality of 1 + pictures. I will stick with my s23 Plus for a while
me watching this knowing damn well i can barely afford a 200 dollar phone
One day you'll be able to buy any damn phone you want.
Bruh then you need to work harder 🤜
You can afford a phone?
That’s cute haha you can afford it soon!
I'll help you. Send me in PM your PayPal or other payment system. Skrill also possible. Let's rock it.
the one plus having a bad camera is one of the biggest myths in the tech space.
They DO have worse camera hardware, but we all know that doesn't translate 100% to actual use. It'll be hard to find situations where other phones with better hardware will actually produce better photos, and in all honesty, we've reached a spot where little to no difference can be noticed in such small screens anyway.

@Blancrougeblanc go for vivo in X series
true because if you ask me, I have OnePlus ace 2 pro here it's a freaking china only phone with SD 8 Gen 2 but with 50mp this is all I need because it's already giving good shots for camera and good gaming performance, that's why my only option when I want to upgrade is OnePlus or Xiaomi now because even with Xiaomi 11t in Dimensity 1200, 108mp is already good enough for everyday use
@BlancrougeblancI would take OnePlus 15 because of the amazing black behind of the phone. It's indestructible. 😂😅❤
At the end it would be nice if ur picture wasnt blocking the talley lol
If you pause it it fades so you can see them
@rzawistowski33Doesn't fade for me
@arthursilva2005 I am late to this conversation , but I have Enhancer for RUclips Installed. If I scroll down, the video player turns in a popup window removing the profile image, try it if you want
I'm actually dumbfounded by the Oneplus with those sensors. Everyone says how bad the camera is but it went toe to toe with the top dogs.
OnePlus compared decently with samsungs Auto mode which is samsungs weakest photo mode. If you use expert raw, default images set to 24 megapixels and the final image to jpeg, while keeping everything set to auto it is night and day difference vs auto.
Ya watch mkbhd video. In this little screen and well lit scenes you won't know zilch
Everyone's downplaying the camera too much but if you check out the camera comparison on iphone 17 and oneplus 15, it isn't as bad as what people are saying. You're not gonna use camera everyday anyway, they might as well buy an actual camera if they care too much.
lol surprisingly it actually did! this is the first camera battle i seen it in.
@Whoareyoucalling wtf, you set image mode to jpeg on raw mode.
I have to say that after some reviews that I watched, I was expecting the OnePlus cameras to be terrible. They actually look pretty decent there.
Same . Because I have the Google Pixel 9Pro XL and hate low light front camera, I have a OnePlus 9pro and been eye the 13 but never got because I have a Pixel and I've been looking at OnePlus 15 and I am going to get it in Kenya.

They just become talker
Would take a IR blaster over the thermometer feature everyday as I use it alot
Flipper Zero for that.
@mindyabizznis I don't carry that with me everywhere, I always have my phone. I use it everyday
Yes!
Why is there never a category for RF (radio) performance - how well or badly the device connects to the mobile network? After all, that is one of the key parameters for a mobile phone. All of the other stuff is not much use if your device won't connect to a weaker mobile or wifi signal.
So true
I LOVE that your first category is the pricing, most tech RUclipsrs seem to forget that it is the most influential factor for 99% of the consumers.
Most reviewers are out of touch millionaires. Mkbhd straight up forgets to mention price half the time. On his case channel he considers eighty thousand dollars a bargain for a car. Much rather reviewers like this that understands the audience.
I appreciate your honest reviews not hipping up the phones
Just give me S25 with OnePlus' battery
😂
And with pixel camera or Iphone camera. S25 ultra is on 21st position on dxomark camera. Below iphone 15 pro and 8 pro pixel
This
and LG QUAD DAC, 3.5mm headphone jack, sd card slot and 21:9 display and 4k/120fps and removable battery
U mean s26
Did someone just improve the camera sensors on the OnePlus? Tom's Guide now has it on their Best Camera phone list.
Do charts earlier, before the suggestion tiles and your channel tile block the chart.
Big companies need to use silicon carbon batteries at this point. Apple, Google, and Samsung are slacking.
That battery degrades faster
Why? There is zero competition pretty much. You can reuse old tech and sell it over and over
Apple still claps everyone of these chinese phones in battery life 😂
U dunno anything about silicon carbon. They are not slacking 😂. And pixel is not a big company at all yet. Anyways silicon carbon is neither more expensive nor better than lithium ions.

I think ppl are way too obsessed with that aspect to, especially just what's "best" and not even looking at specific things.

Unless its side by side, I think its really hard to differentiate phone cameras nowadays. They all look pretty good.
No wonder everyone gets 'fooled' on blind tests
I'm on the 15 now. Battery lasts all-day 😱
AGREED!
op haters can't get over that china makes very good products, look at tcl and hisense for tvs now better phones.
@Tony.Montalbanois it worth switching from the oneplus 13 to the 15?
I think OnePlus dropping hasselblad are there a camera tuning really benefited OnePlus. I just wish One Plus use bigger sensors in this model.
Can't wait for my op15 to arrive!
How is it?
Ordered mine and it arrives tomorrow! I cant waaaait :D
The thermometer and satellite sos are useful features when you're camping and hiking. Wouldn't buy a phone without satellite sos tbh
i work in maintenance and use the thermometer on the pixel every now and then and has saved me from burning my hand on equipment that chills at 300 F
Photo test, having the sun peaking out definitely change the photo. So the photo were not consisted among the three
13:55 it's crazy all the hate OnePlus 15 cameras are getting when these pictures look pretty amazing. Also Crazy you ranked it 3rd when it looked far better in most pics lol
They are good but I think the main issue is they don't look close to real life which isn't obvious when watching these videos.

My OP13 shoots more accurate pics than my pixel 9 pro.
How does the killer of KG still not put the Air in here.
I have the pixel and use the thermometer a lot for my toddler and baby if they feel warm. It's surprisingly very accurate
I love to hear this real world feedback!
Hey, I need your suggestion. I’m planning to buy the Pixel 10 Pro - would you recommend it? I have a toddler and love capturing her moments. I’m currently using the Samsung S23 Ultra, but its low-light performance hasn’t been great for me. Thanks 😊
@Reshu2121 Just buy a thermometer bro
Can you make a video about Xiaomi 17 pro max???
Thank you
Great video! Just wish customer service was compared too. My OnePlus 13’s official wood-grain case didn’t protect the edges, was almost impossible to remove (gave me a blister), and the screen cracked. Support bounced me around for months. Hardware = great, support… not so much.
I feel like i'm the only one that prefers sharper corners on my phone.
your not the only one
It looks nice but not good for hands
funnily enough i have 2 kids and i use the thermometer on my phone for checking temperatures quite often honestly i think it should stay.
Feed them real food and they will never get sick.
@AI.P23 chill
@AI.P23😂😂😂
@AI.P23broooooo
Photo comparison @ 12:50 - look at the poster in background. Details clearer on 1+ but blurry on other phones.
the photo overall looks amazing. it might not be the most true to life photo but most people are looking for their photos to look good not accurate
Pixel call screening is amazing. I have not had a spam call in years since the Pixel 4. I owned an 8 and 10 Pro since then. Got a 6a for my mother and she has also not had any spam calls. Which is a big deal because she's nearly 80 years old and just does not understand some things.
Thanks
This feature alone helped me decide. 😂
Thanks
This feature alone helped me decide.
So sick of spam calls.
if i have one plus 13 why would i wanted to upgrade to one plus 15?
It's kind of hard to believe that this is not a sponsored video as his statement seems very contradicting he said all of em are loaned by those companies but still giving it the benefit of a doubt...
He seems to be actively replying to other comments, so what you say might be true if he doesn't reply.
I totally agree with you on this
If they all are loaned then which company sponsored it?
@baldeeptiwanaoneplus
Looking to buy next phone, great vid!
OnePlus fast charging is simply a game changer. It's the reason why my OP12 is in hand 90% of the time vs my S25 Ultra, Pixel 10 Pro Fold, or 16 Pro max. But I am not even certain there are enough added features in the OP15 to justify an upgrade from the 12.
I am going for the upgrade to OP15 considering the current phone I m using is a 5 year old One Plus 8T and it's still working great. (Typing on it btw) But battery now sucks
Good grief look at the size of the cameras on that Samsung! 😮
Great content. I love my s24 ultra. With Bluetooth s pen. Anti-glare screen, power share. I was gonna get the s25 ultra in January but in december I decided to get the s24 ultra.

And if you want to keep your home screen Anti-glare and use a glass screen protector get a matte glass screen protector it works fantastic with it.
Wat about S25 Edge?
Good evening young Mike. Great video as usual.
Thank you!
I’ve seen reviewers speaking badly of the one plus camera but they look great to me! Thanks for the review!
People keep talking about how bad the cameras are but to me this is very great of quality they are pulling from that sensor so why are people talking trash about the phone this is the most balanced phone have seen this year
OnePlus 15's low light capabilities aren't that great based on the samples I've seen so far.
@MithunOnTheNet Low light on any smart phone is going to suffer. Every smart phone on the market has tiny sensors, some companies try to get around that with AI processing shenanigans.. but it doesn't change how cameras operate on a fundamental level
why no "video recording" category?
My sister got a pixel 10 pro. Unfortunately most of the cool Google ai features are not working in Denmark/EU
Emm… What if your sister uses it with vpn? Would it work? I’m also going to buy pixel 10, but I still doubt it since I live in China 🤣
22:53 , I used the thermometer on the Pixel 8 Pro quite a few times, and most of the time I used it to see the room's temperature, or overall temperature outside, even water temperature of the pool, to see if a radiator is working, and last time to take the temperature of water when making bread
Everyone was talking about how bad the OnePlus 15 camera is, and yet and this comparison it is at least on par with the Google and Samsung flagships.
Maybe just a skill issue... (just kidding) - I had a pretty good experience with the camera so far! I'm sure there are some edge cases that are better on Pixel, Samsung, or OnePlus, but for most normal shooting, the main difference I noticed was saturation
@MikeOBrienMediathanks Mike, appreciate your work!
@MikeOBrienMediagood morning Mike, does the one plus shoot in raw or is in any way useful for astro photography?
except for low light situations , that is where it falls apart
Very good conparison ! Great Video - thx
I am stil used to Samsung. Software and hardware, so unless there is a killer feature I don't see myself switching. And after S24 the software is updated for a looong time.
Samsung has definitely earned a lot of loyalty over the years!
The killer feature is that you could make the phone last 2 days on a single charge while heavily using it or if you're a light user, 2.5/3 days is not a problem at all which is a far cry from what you have right now.
There's also the fact that I only typically charge my phone for 10 to 15 minutes while eating and that's more than enough.
That's something the competition can't do
The battery and charging are the killer feature. Once you use it, then you realize how shitty experience is on samsung
That's the issue with pixel. It's battery is garbage, but grapheneOS is the only thing I need in a phone, which only pixel can have
How about decent battery life for a change?! Samsung really lacks there! ...Oh, and the PRICE! lolololol
T-Mobile also has Satellite SoS at least texting... It works well .
Pixel also has the extra dim mode
yeah
So does S25U.
Not picking on Mike here because it seems like everyone does it but the included year of gemini advanced with the Pixel pro is almost always blown past like it's no big deal when it's a feature that normally costs $19.99/mo. I haven't used it so I don't know if it's worth that much or anything close, but still.
An important specification that is missing from most reviews is GPS channel (L1, L2, L5) coverage, GPS accuracy and how many decimal places are stored in the X, Y and Z coordinates that are stored in the exif data stored in the photos. Many phone truncate the number of digits so that the phone doesn't save the location to anywhere near the native accuracy of the phone. They can be off by over 300 ft. I often need to know where a photo was taken so this is a big fail for me.
Whtats wrong with oneplus 15 gps accuracy?
review reno14 pro please
I knew it, oneplus 15 has good cameras, i don't get it why people criticized it so much, guess I will be upgrading to op 15 from my op 12
Yea go for it. I recently bought the op13s. Its the best phone I've used till now.
Because OnePlus was known for than way back when you could buy their top of the line for $499! And some people will ALWAYS say Oneplus doesn't have as good as a camera. I could care less about smartphone phones because they all use tiny little sensors that are just good for snap shots! I have bigger sensor cameras with MANY TIMES the sensor size - REAL CAMERAS - Not Toys! But, in this review, if I was making my decision solely on the cameras performance, I would buy the ONEPLUS 15 ! It looked great! ... And I'd save hundreds in the process!
Honestly; I think it's just collusion. And they want to keep the Chinese product out of the competition.
You should try those cameras first on one plus, I tried today and the front camera felt like a cheap HD camera of budget phones.
Because they aren't great cameras, just ok
Why is there "design" in the results twice?!?
And we're waiting for "Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 for Galaxy ✨️"
It’s your choice but oneplus has higher resolution so even it is more powerful it cant output 165hz as oneplus and oneplus has has the fastest ram time in the market as well has highest touch sampling rate if up 3200 hz due to there touch response chip. And in gaming test oneplus is more optimized and stable while gaming if you compare it to Samsung or any other phones by using FPS meter
I dont think this samsung phone can beat oneplus in bench mark score nor in battery nor in charging nor in customization or animation
@diggedboy2333 oneplus 13 ranking is #7 -- S25 ultra is #8---S25 plus is #9. That's with antutu benchmark.
@BisheshDhaubhadel-b2iwdym One plus has higher resolution? Galaxy Flasghips always has 1440p resolution. And I'm not talking about One plus here...I'm talking about "Snapdragon for Galaxy".
@diggedboy2333 I don't think one plus can beat Samsung in Customization, Samsung Goodlock app will always give you options it can even customize animations. And the problem about One Plus is that it is not optimized on socmed apps like Galaxy Flagships and iPhone and what more Samsung offered 7 years of OS, better security (Samsung knox), better Galaxy AI and One UI still the best if not the best but most popular UI reliable android skin as of now. And in Popularity One plus is not comparable to Samsung.
Do you think Samsung 26 ultra is going to get 400 megapixel camera
Until 1+ gets this phone into US carriers they are never gonna make a dent. Most people here get their phones from carriers. I am different. I pay cash.
You're right. Most Americans have never heard of OnePlus
Yeah, debt culture here in the US is wild. But I'll be buying the OnePlus 15 outright soon. They likely won't ever be picked up again by carriers. A quick Google search says T-Mobile dropped them due to poor sales, customer issues with the devices (OnePlus 7 Pro), and OnePlus themselves saying that they want to focus on direct to consumer sales.
I'm with spectrum ,and I have the anytime upgrade ,I can change my phone at will ,I wish they had this phones like the oppo ,one plus ,red magic ,trust me Samsung is a beast ,but I wish to try this other brands
The bummer for me is that one plus doesn't support T-Mobiles t satellite
you know, they used to do that for a couple years there, I'm not exactly sure why they stopped! not only that but I think they still do on their budget phones, just not on their flagships. not sure why
10:05 all of Google's phones have an extra dim mode. You can put it on your quick access pull down bar
I use the Thermometer to check the temperature of my son when sick. Also for checking temperature of his milk bottle after warming it up.
what about shooting videos? are androids still jittery at times vs. iPhones?
10:00 😂 Mike seems to have an anti-Pixel bias. The Pixel doesn't get nearly as dim as the other two? The Pixel and OnePlus look identical on my screen.
Also not giving the design category to the pixel is cruel.
Looks like it. I agree about the performance aspect but the pixel has the better portrait and low light pictures. I know it's subjective, but the details in the hair is what I look at in pictures and the pixel was the most detailed. Hair on the one plus seems out of focus to me.
@yatishsharma8632 I think the pixel 10 is the ugliest phone to ever be made. That futurerama bender visor is hideous.
What we see on screen is inaccurate and not what he sees in person with his own eyes. This is due to limited video rendering.
Go for S25 Ultra Jet Black. Amazing device 👌
If the OnePlus had a good camera, it would have been the perfect phone
It has a good camera, just not as good as the competitors
@cubicbuilder9 It doesn't. It has the same camera as 400$ phones (exact same sensor).
@v@vasilmitev3076 It looks fine to me at least. I don’t use the camera tho so it doesn’t really make too much of a difference anyways.
@vasilmitev3076 the $400 can't to that processing 😅
Maybe look into the Oneplus 13. Despite the number jump (13 to 15) it actually came out earlier this year. Its specs aren't as cutting edge as the 15 but the camera is better.
Looks rosey for the Oneplus until your messages and notifications come through 8 hours late. Which is what happened to me on the OP13. Sent it back to Oneplus twice and both devices had delayed notifications.
Ill get oneplus if they have something similar to goodlock 😂
This is the deal breaker for me as I love customizing ugh
Bro that stupid goodlock... The software is way better on oneplus and customizeition is very very good like Samsung even without goodlock
@inspireativI see u never used good lock
I had one plus its good but I like samsung more overall
@AkeebAhamed-yi5hx I did but I mean it's not as smooth as my oneplus
I really like redmagic 11 pro you think it's better then these phones?
20:40 you forgot to mention that in market like india and china charging speed is 120W with included adapter.
No way 😮
In Germany too lol
That was one of the best comparisons thanks a lot I almost pulled the plug on the pixel but after seeing those photos and video I really like the OnePlus it basically takes pictures how I already adjust my photos after I take a picture I wouldn't have to do anything 😎👌
I've had a Pixel 7 for years. No wobble thanks to the straight camera bump is a game-changer.
Same, had mine since launch and it's been really solid for me. I'm planning to change the battery next month and hopefully keep it until 2027 then upgrade to either the 11 Pro XL or 12 Pro XL
LOLOL, WHO CARES! I'm always using my phone in my hand, never on the table! If that's why you buy that phone? - I feel sorry for you! There are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many other features that are FAR MORE meaningful and useful than the WOOOOBLE! heehee!
That's s a d .
Nonsensical
@KOrnhOliO1are you alright? Why are you so mad😂
As far as looks go, I don't really like those big radius corners, and have come to think the 25 corners are perfect.
I got the s25 ultra 515gb from samsung last week for $849 plus tax and picked up at best buy 👌
Just got mine for a similar price. Best device out at the moment. The value you get for money on this device is simply unmatched. I switched from OnePlus BTW. Just miss the native app lock feature. Secure Folder is not the same. I don't want my data partitioned and encrypted.
@m4heshdI just want OnePlus on Verizon :'(
@mydearriley it works with Verizon. Or do you mean financing through them?
You're going to love your S25 Ultra.
The S25u is sensational especially when it's finely personalised via good lock.
Will putting a different launcher (ie.lawnchair or Smart launcher) om a pixel 10 pro effect its performance or interfere witj any of the apps in any way?
thinking of going from pixel to oneplus, but the os on pixel is just so good. Im afraid
Don't be afraid the os on OnePlus is just as good or even better
@Gum_man61you sure about that?
(how many pixels have you used? )
Should’ve had the RedMagic 11 Pro with a 7500mAh battery.
going for the 1plus
You are a smart person
Same
The pixels also have an extra dim mode and it's so handy at night
Don't know about One plus but I've been using extra dim mode on my samsung for years now. I even have it on my Lenovo tab so I just assumed it's an Android thing & nothing to do with a specific UI
S25 Ultra is now around 850-900$ . so it is a no brainer for me
Yeah that's why I included the scorecard! You can adjust the scores as needed. Sales could make the S25+ go from third to first in pricing and thus change the final outcome!
Where at ?
where are you getting that price?
@vee3541you can get it, if u keep eyes open for sales & discounts
Overrated horrible phone. S24 is better
Two things I don't recall hearing in this video. You showed pitcher stuff , but not video stuff. Like how are they in low light video. And how are the speakers while on a phone call with somebody. I have the samsung s 20 ultra. While the speaker's to hear music is okay. The speaker for phone calls sucks.
If Google ever learns where to place the power button and allows the Google search bar to be moved from the bottom of the screen, i would probably try one out. Until then, Samsung for me. Also, T-Mobile offers satellite connection for emergencies on Samsung. Not just Verizon
Dude u can just use your own launcher if you don't like the native one
@tmz1600 Dude, I cant use a launcher to physically move the power button to the correct position.
Very disappointed that all these companies are downgrading their phones
this was indepth. i liked it
Thanks!
The S25 Ultra also supports satellite messaging (SOS) on T-Mobile as well, provided you have a plan that supports it, or add it separately on plans that don't. VZW lost me years ago.
one plus only shows 165hz while gaming when you are not gaming it is 120 hz
hopefully in an update they would change that. I get its to save battery, but if i want to murder my battery thats my right. Thanks for joining my ted talk clippie.
@jfralick100 it was intended to work like that there is no reason to need 165 fps outside of gaming it is not noticable and it is just a marketing tactic by one plus (they just needed something to make people talk about them) they have nothing other than that they can open and close apps fast
@hazemswalqa9118maybe you can't notice a difference, but I definitely can. There's a reason there are 360+ hz monitors on the market.
Actual useful feature for me would be aquatouch for those quick reply to urgent messages & u don't have to search a towel to dry your hand before texting. And 2nd would be the alert slider, which is very sad they removed, during the meeting I could put my phone in silent or vibration mode without taking them out of my pocket. Best feature in any smart phone & used to be onplus's signature.
i hope samsung keeps the square corners
Great comparison! -Paul
Saying the resolutions aren't the same is WILD. the one plus has a 1.5 k. Idk about pixel it might b close but the s25u is WAY higher
Only the 15 is 1080p
11% LOL 450 vs 498 PPI.
@DmitrySSSthat’s a lot
@D@DmitrySSSwhy not just get off the Chinese nuts
@donaldbraugh2314no
One thing that drives me nuts with the Google phones is that you HAVE to use Chromecast. That has been a big deterrent for me. I haven't tried the new phones. Is that still what has to be used, or can you Miracast now?
Can get a oppo find x9 pro for £890. Even cheaper if you get it of wonda mobile and don't mind a non UK seller.
You will enjoy the ads and bloatware and updates and features drops will stop after 2 years
is that a global or Chinese version
@whyhaveaname5963you're still sleeping?
thank you so much for a in deep comparision. it is good.
The thermometer is a dumb feature should be an
IR blaster
It 's as dumb as the magnet.
But you don’t go out and shove your phone deep inside your brisket to check temps to know when to pull it out? SMH.
@TnoBambinoThat sounds like a personal problem.
That One+ IR blaster is a really cool feature I never thought to be useful. I've got 10 devices loaded on my One+ Open. Mom's house TV, Sis house TV, Timeshares, Vacation Trailer, my TV's & Stereo @ home.
4:37 Smaller pockets😂😂
Pixel 10 Pro's photos are the most well-balanced
Except for the ones that were really washed out! Oh, and those ones that weren't in focus - But focus isn't critical! Fuzzy focus photos are fine, right?! Better look BETTER, Bro! LOL Pixel 10 photos were the worst of the three! OPEN YOUR EYES AND MIND! .... You're biased.
16:29 pixel changed your image into a horror movie.
Stranger things type shit
The disgusting in Pixel 10 pro XL is the midranger performance of Tensor G5 even older Exynos 2400 is better.
i have a samsung s24 FE, using Exynos 2400 chipset. Its even faster than Google pixel 10 pro xl
@tonynghongxiang it's always be, because Tensor is lacking in raw Performance compared to Exynos.
I always need the IR blaster so it would be the One Plus 15. I currently have the One Plus 13 after over a decade of getting flagship Samsungs. I am not too fussed about photos as I am not a professional. Also I love strong batteries.
OnePlus 15 shouldn't be compared with S25Ultra. It's a $900 vs $1300, phone. It should be compared with S25/S25+. OnePlus 15 beat it in every category. Even camera. 😏
Lil tip you can get the chinese version (flashed with global os) for like 500 bucks, same hardware. The site even tells you what the differences are, sometimes soke things are less compatible but i heavily recommend TradingShenzen
I use the thermometer to check my baby's temperature and it's usually accurate I test it then use my actually thermometer and it's usually pretty accurate but I take 3 readings to be sure
I just got OnePlus 15 with Buds pro 3 for 890$
In us?
In US?
Yes in the US
Can someone explain why magsafe is amazing? Besides phone reviewing you don't use the phone without a case?
There is no perfect phone.
Just returned my pixel
Samsung too boxy
Don't agree with the quality of 1 + pictures.
I will stick with my s23 Plus for a while
oppo?
@m4rchewa4color os
T mobile no longer sells Oneplus phones. Is support for them as good in the US as is for Google or Samsung?
