Blind camera test
Galaxy shootout: Blind camera test
Blind test: the reveal
Time to tally the votes - you, our readers, have had 24 hours to pick their favorite Samsung Galaxy cameraphone based on scanty crops of daylight and low-light photos, plus one for video.
The results are roughly what we expected them, though the Galaxy S5 got more votes than we expected.
The slightly sharper photos of the Galaxy Note 4 won it the victory in broad daylight, while the wider aperture and more laid back processing allowed the Galaxy S6 to snag a victory in the dark. The Note 4 also came out on top for video, which we suspect has something to do with the color rendering and the extra sharpening. The Galaxy S6 still won out over its predecessor, the Galaxy S5.
