Although both cameras share numerous features in common, there are differences in their equipment. You can easily find the differences from the specification comparison table; however, this will not really tell you how the two cameras perform in the real world.

That's why you need Phone & Photo. We took pictures on the two phones by applying the same settings under the same conditions in different scenes (we try our best!). These blind tests allow you to compare the performance of both phone cameras without any hassle.


Blind test, and find your true-love camera phone! Let's start!


👉How to use the blind tests

Step 1: For each pair of images, vote for the one you prefer (A or B)
Step 2: Count the overall number of votes for A and B
Step 3: See which has the most votes and ~voila~ you have the right camera phone
