Over saturates and crushes our low light example.

OnePlus 9 Pro – Excellent color and detail in good lighting. Struggles in lower light, dark shadows, and has some lens distortion. iPhone 12 Pro Max: Very wide field of view with solid colors and details.But both of these phones retain sharper details than Apple and Samsung, owing in part to their narrower field of view.
The Xperia 1 III is just a fraction noisier in the shadows and there are a few signs of sharpening along the tree edges. The other two are very tough to tell apart, but the OnePlus perhaps looks a fraction cleaner. There’s a heavier dose of sharpening to clean up the images, most notably in Samsung’s image. Taking a closer look at the details in daylight, it’s clear that the Galaxy S21 Ultra and iPhone 12 Pro Max aren’t flawless, particularly on complex textures like trees. Some snaps look better than competitors that claim longer-range capabilities.
Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max: While poor at long range, the phone is very consistent below 4x. Digital upscales below 3.3x don’t look great. Longer range snaps hold up marginally better than the iPhone and provide good-looking images between 3.3x and about 7x. OnePlus 9 Pro: 3.3x optical works well for landscapes but doesn’t always focus for macro shots. It doesn’t always look the best but is reasonably consistent. Hybrid zoom doesn’t look as good as optical around 5x. Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra: Best long-range zoom by a mile. Would be the best setup if not for periscope HDR/focusing issues. Sony Xperia 1 III: The variable focal length periscope camera is brilliant for mid-level zoom but struggles at longer lengths. Sony Xperia 1 III camera tested: Zoom or bust However, the 7x result is quite soft and Sony’s camera suffers from some HDR/focusing problems, which you can read more about below. It’s also the only phone that shifts through focal length perspectives and adds natural depth of field. Sony’s Xperia 1 III is the most consistent here thanks to its variable optical lens. The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra’s latter pictures look OK thanks to its hybrid zoom technology, although they’re not as crystal clear as optical zoom. Colors are generally good, but the lack of dynamic range occasionally produces washed-out pictures. Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max: The iPhone fails our tougher HDR tests, struggling to extract details from shadows or prevent highlight clipping. OnePlus 9 Pro: The phone’s HDR technology is extremely powerful at stretching the camera’s dynamic range but overdoes it on the color saturation. Sony Xperia 1 III: Surprisingly solid HDR with the best color balance of the four, but occasionally struggles to find the correct exposure. Not quite perfect but the most consistent. Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra: Capable of the widest dynamic range while still offering a sensible color balance. Likewise, Samsung handles these HDR pictures effortlessly, albeit with a slight highlight clip in the clouds behind the letterbox. The figurine picture is better and very well-balanced. The OnePlus 9 Pro’s HDR technology is very powerful at extracting shadow detail but leaves the letterbox photo too skewed towards the highlights.
