We just saw a video of the new Pixel 4 smartphone against the iPhone 11 Pro Max and now we have some details on how the new Google Pixel 4 performed in the DXOMark camera tests.
The video below gives us a look at how the handset performed, the device managed to score 112 on the test. There are quite a few devices with higher scores, which is surprising as Google handsets have previously done very well in previous tests.
Sophisticated software processing and computational photography in previous Pixel cameras has helped Google smartphones rank well in our tests. Combining this advanced processing with a dual-lens camera on the Pixel 4 could be really interesting. Read on to find out how the Pixel 4 performed in our DXOMARK Camera tests.
Pixel 4 Camera Features and Innovations
The Google Pixel 4 comes equipped with a dual-lens camera system, which includes a 12.2 MP primary sensor and a 16 MP telephoto lens. This setup marks a significant upgrade from its predecessors, which relied on a single-lens system. The addition of the telephoto lens allows for improved zoom capabilities and better portrait shots, enhancing the overall versatility of the camera.
One of the standout features of the Pixel 4 is its advanced computational photography. Google’s software processing capabilities have always been a strong point, and the Pixel 4 leverages this to deliver impressive results. Features like Night Sight, which allows for stunning low-light photography, and Super Res Zoom, which enhances the quality of zoomed-in shots, are prime examples of how software can elevate hardware performance.
DXOMark Camera Test Results
In the DXOMark camera tests, the Pixel 4 achieved a score of 112. While this is a respectable score, it falls short of some of its competitors. For instance, the Huawei Mate 30 Pro and the iPhone 11 Pro Max have higher scores, indicating that there is still room for improvement in Google’s camera technology.
The Pixel 4 scored particularly well in the areas of exposure and contrast, color accuracy, and autofocus. The device’s ability to capture vibrant and true-to-life colors was highlighted as a strong point. Additionally, the autofocus system was praised for its speed and accuracy, making it easier to capture sharp images quickly.
However, the Pixel 4 did not perform as well in the areas of texture and noise. While the camera is capable of capturing detailed images, there is a noticeable amount of noise in low-light conditions. This is an area where competitors like the iPhone 11 Pro Max have an edge, thanks to their more advanced noise reduction algorithms.
