DXOMARK Ranks iPhone 11 Pro as Third Best Smartphone Camera [Video]
Posted November 7, 2019 at 4:36pm by iClarified
DXOMARK has published its review of the camera on the new iPhone 11 Pro Max.
The iPhone received an overall score of 117, a photo score of 124 and a video score of 102. This puts the device in third position behind the Huawei Mate 30 Pro and the Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition which both have an overall score of 121.
The camera performed very well in our tests in pretty much all areas, but some challenges remain. Still images generally show very good exposure. Dynamic range is very wide in bright light and under indoor conditions, but some highlight clipping is still visible in very difficult scenes. Overall, the iPhone is among the very best for exposure; it’s only in very low light when can’t keep up with devices with larger image sensors, such as the Huawei Mate 30 Pro. Like previous iPhone generations, the 11 Pro Max also scores very well for color and is among the best in this category in all light conditions. A slightly greenish cast is visible in some indoor scenes and in our lab tests, but overall color tends to be very pleasant: a slight yellow cast gives some scenes a warm feel and works very well for skin tones in portraits.
Here's a look at their pros and cons of the iPhone 11 Pro for taking photos:
Pros:
● Good levels of detail in most test conditions
● Accurate target exposure and wide dynamic range in most situations
● Fast, accurate, and repeatable autofocus
● Vivid and pleasant colors
● Very wide ultra-wide lens, with good detail and dynamic range, and well-controlled chromatic aberrations
● Good zoom performance at close and medium range
Cons:
● Noise visible in all light conditions
● Loss of detail in long-range zoom shots
● Ringing in outdoor images
● Lack of detail in flash images
● Strong yellow cast under low warm light
● Lack of detail and noise in ultra-wide images
