New Samsung Ad Boasts Galaxy S5 'Snaps Photos With Twice the Resolution of the iPhone' [Video]

Posted April 25, 2014 at 5:11pm by iClarified
Samsung has posted a new ad boasting that the Galaxy S5 'snaps photos with twice the resolution of the iPhone'.

Set goals, capture photos, watch videos, and don't be afraid to make a splash. The innovative Galaxy S 5 makes everyday moments better.

A recent comparison of the iPhone 5s and Galaxy S5 camera by CNET found that the two devices were usually neck and neck in terms of photo quality. "At times we preferred the GS5's color contrast, while there were other photos when the iPhone 5S' even lighting and tone won us over."


Looking at the most popular cameras on Flickr, the iPhone accounted for the top five smartphone cameras. Check out the rankings here.

How much memory space does a photo take up on the S5? And how much onboard usable memory space is available to an S5 user? And since when does more megapixels mean better pictures? Samsung, you're sounding VERY desperate. Your fingerprint sensor not working too well in the real world? How about fixing that problem with software first?

S5: 16 MP, 5312 x 2988 pixels, 1/2.6'' sensor size, 1.12 µm pixel size. iphone5s: 8 MP, 3264 x 2448 pixels, 1/3'' sensor size, 1.5 µm pixel size. More pixels at the expense of the pixel size.

Worst camera... It stretches the faces and object that are at the edges of the camera frame. Pathetic.

Samsung would've seemed less pathetic if they just said "the camera is better than most others" rather than "twice as much as the iPhone" but instead it's just funny and sad at the same time, Samsung has nothing of their own to really offer customers

Me too. I'd rather swim in a pool of hot steamy diarrhea than own a Samsung phone.

In these times, more megapixels won't improve the camera in mobile phones. They need to focus on other things like better low light photos, motion and blur, purple light... The only purpose of adding more megapixels is to get customer ignorant in the photo subject.

Well said. The HTC One (M8) is the first phone to make that change. Decreasing the MP to increase sensor size. The low light is incredible. I think reducing the resolution al the way down to 4MP may have been a little to much though. To date. The iPhone still takes the best pics of any mainstream phone.

Now that's an elaborate strategy compared to any other mainstream company hating apple.
