It's easy to flip through the two 'zoom' levels by tapping the '1x' icon that can be found on the screen. One of the big new features can be found in portrait mode - once you take a portrait shot, you can go to the phone gallery, tap edit and adjust the background blur with the slider. Specs-wise, there is very little difference between the iPhone XS and iPhone X – the f-stops are the same, the optical zoom (2x) and digital zooms (10x) are the same, as is the dual optical image stabilisation. The (literally) biggest change is to the sensor size.
IPHONE XS BATTLEFIELD V IMAGES SOFTWARE
Going from 1.22µm to 1.4µm is significant and having this backed by the A12 Bionic chip means the software has gone through a number of improvements. The depth of the pixels has also been improved, meaning you’ve got theoretically faster autofocus, although we didn’t notice much of an improvement there in our tests. Given HDR is the big buzzword of the moment (and for good reason), it’s great to see Apple enhance this feature with the iPhone XS. Where we saw Auto HDR on the iPhone X, Smart HDR sees Apple make use of its lack of shutter lag and use a ‘four-frame buffer’ when you take images of a moving image. In our test, in day-to-day conditions, the shots taken were decent. Images we superbly detailed and oozing the colour and sharpness we have all come to expect when you add HDR into the mix. Compared to the iPhone X, images have a touch more color and saturation, and it resembles a good hybrid of the Pixel 2 XL and the Samsung Galaxy Note 9.īecause of the XS' processing power, we noticed enhancements in darker areas and the phone balanced highlights, lowlights and detail well.ĭepth Control is an interesting one for Apple.

(opens in new tab) iPhone XS camera verdict In the keynote, it claimed that the adjustment of depth of field (from f/1.4 to f/1.6) was something that hasn’t been possible in photography of any type of camera.īut it’s a feature we have seen on the Samsung Galaxy S9 and companies such as Lytro have made it a big feature in the past – albeit in slightly different guises (Apple's USP, it claims, is the ability to change the aperture) and perhaps not offering as much manual control that's on display here. In our early tests, there isn't a huge amount of difference in camera quality on the iPhone X and the iPhone XS. But the changes made really do enhance the quality of the images you are taking. The big point here, though, is that the iPhone X is no longer available from Apple so if you have yet to jump to an X-branded iPhone then you will find a lot to love here.
