DxOMark has released its test results for the iPhone 7's new camera giving it an impressive score of 86.

The iPhone 7 achieves an overall DxOMark Mobile Score of 86. That’s better than Apple’s previous best score of 84 for the iPhone 6s Plus and 82 for the iPhone 6s. Its improved Texture performance is likely related to the new lens design, while its lower noise score shows the effect of its faster lens and improved image processing chip (ISP). Artifacts are also greatly reduced, thanks no doubt to the upgraded ISP.

DxOMark says the iPhone 7 offers a visible improvement in image quality over the iPhone 6s Plus which scored 84. The iPhone 7 provides great exposures with wide dynamic range, accurate white balance and color rendering, as well as good detail preservation when shooting outdoors in bright conditions.

Weaknesses include the loss of very fine detail, some focusing irregularities in all lighting conditions, and visible luminance noise in low light. The video score for the iPhone 7 was slightly lower at 85 points.

I feel brave when using the iPhone 7, but how different does it look comparing picture aspect with these phones. BTW my 7 isn't bricked!

Its like comparing digital vs analog all over again.

The differences between any of them are statistically insignificant. One must choose a phone for other reasons besides the camera.

Also the edge, edge plus and note 5 all have the same camera so how can you say any are better (literally the note 5 and s6 have interchangeable camera units, they're the exact same)

RWR - September 28, 2016 at 5:11pm

Very incorrect. I owned the z force before, no way it even got over 80, that camera can't even beat the iPhone 6

Great! - September 28, 2016 at 4:21pm

At least it doesn't run Android, which is such a security risk.

It was expected. iPhone 7 wasn't really impressive.

gamerscul9870 - September 28, 2016 at 4:48pm

Or maybe because this doesn't mean it's a bad camera, just a bit below a few phones, not all, plus this phone was more impressive than you think. If there's anything that makes it fall a bit behind though, it's all because of how huge those lens are on some androids.

My 6S takes way better pictures
