This video makes you realise how good the Pixel 7a is !

I don’t think people are giving Google enough credit for how much they’ve improved video recording on android. That was my biggest take away; aside from the comparison being closer than people probably thought it would be. iPhone still has the edge in this case of course (at double the price it should be expected).

❤ Thank you so much to make these side by side comparison video, it really helps.

I have a Pixel 6a. When I went on a holiday last month, I mainly used the main camera, even for vlogs. Seeing the improvement of the selfie video on the 7a, I now want to get one.

I much prefer Pixel photos. But iPhone videos are just so good. 2x Zoom isn't that great on the Pixel 7a especially when directly compared next to the iPhone 14 Pro.

While the majority of the videos out there on the 7a review brought me a feeling of regret regarding my purchase, even though I loved that phone a lot, this one video really gave me back that good feeling I had earlier when I bought this device. Thanks a lot!

The Pixel 7a takes great pictures. No need to spend $1,000 when the 7a photos looks just as good

The Apple seems to push for much more aggressive contrast, sharpening and colour saturation, which is what most of the people want. For photographers, the Pixel images will seem more life like, in other words accurate. That being said, both phones do a good job and the IQ settings can be adjusted to your likings on both devices.

And what surprising is that pixel tooks same or sometimes better photos..Where price is less than half😮

It's truly impressive what Google managed to pull off on the pixel 7a mainly by software tweaks. Daytime selfie video seemed to be more stable and less "stuttery" on the pixel, in general the iPhone is better in the video department, moreso at night. But the pixel is very close, especially considering it's half the price! And then in the picture department... Actually it looks like like many of the pictures came out better on the pixel (excluding the telephoto of course, digital zoom rarely will beat optical zoom). I'm not an iPhone /Apple Fan, but not a Google fanboy either I have to say, sometimes I thought about buying an iPhone just for the video quality. I did often buy expensive phones , but I'm not willing anymore to pay more than 800 euros for a phone in general. And I got to say, for the 500 euros the pixel 7a is actually crazy good and I'm now even more convinced that I'll buy this, instead of a Samsung s23 ultra, a honor magic 5 pro, or a Xiaomi 13 pro. The only phone that seems like a great deal in every way is the one plus 11, so I'm still a little bit in doubt, hesitating between those two.

Wow for the difference in the price google has really stepped up !!!

If I prefer iOS but like natural looking photo, should I get iPhone 14 Yellow because I loge yellow color or Sony Xperia 1 V or wait for iPhone 15?

The only thing I aware of is the tint. Pixel tend to go for a magenta & Iphone on to yellow. For details I think it's neck to neck.

Excellent comparison ❤

They both took good photos and videos 👍 personally id be pleased if i had either device. My only personal niggle with pixels ( ftom personal experience) is they sometimes overdo the DR/HDR a tad or overexpose in medium lighting conditions. Google needs to tone down HDR a wee bit !

lol the Pixel 7a doesn't just take good photos "for a $500 phone", it takes good photos, period, at any price point. It honestly took better photos than the 14 PRO in a majority of the comparisons in this video. Apple's dynamic range is still wonky. The 7a almost always had a better balanced exposure in almost every shot. One thing I noticed was that the iphone way overprocessed the brick road in the cityscape shots like at 10:12. I think the 14 pro got crushed by the 7a in this comparison for photos. I also don't think that the 7a is all that far behind in the video department either.

I'm a #teampixel, but from this comparison video I think the iPhone is generally better in most scenarios. However, for half of the price (of the iPhone) the Pixel is absolutely the best in value.

How about Pixel 7 selfies and 4K/30 low night video 8:35 performance, if comparing with iphone 14 pro? Pixel 7 web retail price is only $65 more than Pixel 7a in my country.

The Pixel looks great especially for the price but what's happening with the blacks/shadows in its photos? Those areas look like a blocky mess, is this what the photos actually look like or is KZfaq doing something wierd to it? It is mostly in the indoors and night window shots but also the wall to the left of the Ghostbusters building during the day. I have also seen similar blockiness on Pixel 7 Pro photos in other videos.

but only I see a mess of lens flare in night photos?yet I tried 3 of P7pro..all with the same problem🤔

Biggest difference seems to be in colour science and facial AI. Google has more neutral colours where the iPhone slightly oversaturates it. Low light iphone seems better. White balance seems that iphone is more reliable . That was the photography part. Video is a bit chicken and egg to me. I feel that the iPhone has better stabilization when walking. That stood out (back camera)

Really awesome comparison ❤ 7a beat apple in photos ,,, and in vdo it's upto neck to neck .. Pls make a vdo 7a and 6a ..., Which is worth to buying...

For a regular consumer as myself the pixel 7A would do me just fine. 😎

Pixel is much better with daylight pics and tends to value green blue and cold colors as opposite iPhone better with low light video and with warm red orange yellow colors. That said here in Italy Pixel 7a costs 2,5 times less and is a big value for money.

I honestly think pixel has caught up to the iphone in terms of video quality. It's a matter of time when pixel masters computational video graphics as well 🔥. For the price the quality is ridiculous

Google used to be the computational photo champ. I realize the price difference but this just isn’t the case anymore. Google has improved so much on their video though, it seems usable now.

Close call to pick a winner there isn't it, both having pros and both having cons (ignoring the price of course).

Indeed, the Pixel 7a is not bad in photo-video, but for me, a smartphone is not just about that. I prefer to buy an S21 Plus/Ultra or even an iPhone 12 despite the fact that I am very far from being an Apple fan.

Iphone was better, but Pixel came surprisingly close. Some items the pixel had more realistic colors, while color on other subject matters got washed out. Iphone stayed the most consistent but I'm wondering if pixel would fit my needs at a better price. Still trying to see if you have videos that would give me a better idea of astrophotography and stage/auditorium recording. Also, video image quality is certainly important, but I'd also be interested in sound quality comparison of the same videos and devices.

First of all there isn’t a clear winner both are great, the 7a preserves a good deal better detail on most photos and clearly manages colors better. I’ve watched other videos with blind choice tests and in that case the 7 wins.

What make iphone cameras more attractive, its not because of the hardware, rather I think something got to do with the color contrast that turned out being more vibrant and slight higher contrast. It has slight 'depth' with color of the pictures taken. Whereas therest of the phones, including google / samsung, the color turned out to be flatter. This doesn't mean that pictures taken with iphones is closer to what we see in real life, rather, I believe it has done some 'elevation' in color so the picture looks nicer for the eye. Probably Apple did study what kind of color combination human eye like to see.....

Watching with my pixel

Pixel 7 Pixel 7A videos please. Thanks

The selfie videos from Pixel are actually just as good if not better, compared to the ones from iPhone. I'm watching this on my 65" 4K TV.

I think the only compelling reasons anymore for an iPhone is iMessage in the US, and if you love having an Apple Watch, that. I switched from iPhone 13 to Pixel 7 a few months ago after 14 years on iOS and it's really been a treat all around.

The iPhone really doesn't look twice as good! It just looks marginally better at best.

WTF? When it comes to photos neither is better than the other. They are just different, and very slightly. Which ultimately comes down to personal preference rather than any objective criteria.

Is pixels 4k video good or better or best?

pixel 6a has better video stablisation than 7a that it beats the iphone i dont know why they downgrade it in 7a or is it too early to be optimised on 7a

As an iPhone user I can say that the budget pixel is still the phone I use to see if my iPhone took a good shot If its close to the pixel, its good

Pixel 7a is the winner for night photography, image pixel count and price.

Now Google Pixel does well in both photography and video

Almost similar

7a😍

Same story as it was 7 years ago. Pixel wins for still photos, just notably superior HDR, while iPhone wins in video, notably superior details among others. Apple not going to compete with Google for still photography, neither will Google for video recording. These companies came to a understanding/settlement long ago, good business. Some fools think one or the other company is superior Lol.

why you look like robin william?

iPhone have better video stabilization,some pictures picks from iPhone looks more colorful

Definitely iPhone 14 pro is better but not that far.. For $500 phone that's pixel 7a was good!

Pixel definitely beats iphone with the main camera, ultrawide and daylight selfie. iphone wins with telephoto, night shots, video and night selfies

Pixel 7a 🥰🥰🥰🥰

IMO iphone 14 pro is better, but price-wise is this really that much better for these extra 500 bucks, i am not entirely sure.

Unless you are into photography Google Pixel 7a is enough.

Pixel 7a nailed it.

I don't think it's an even comparison. Should've done the pixel 7 pro instead. I love my 7 Pro!!

Pixel impressive, in some point iPhone better and in some pixel..but price wise pixel wins

Only pixel can beat it 🔥

7а. Эти отвратительные красные рожы на Айфон бееее. Трехкратный зум конечно лучше. Но это елинственное чем отстает 7а. Фото мне больше понравились на 7а. Сэлфи 7а. Видео на основную - трудно сказать. Где-то айфон больше дает деталей. Или он более удасно дает контраст, а кажется, что деталей больше. Наверное 14 в видео на основную лучше справился. Но это надо на пк пересмотреть

Lots of internet chatter about the Pixel 7a issues so I could not recommend that phone until these have been resolved. Since the Pixel started, it has always had a USP of photography, so no surprise that it comepetes well with the iPhone, and I suspect it would make the Fold 4 at $1800 look sub-par, so not really sure what we have learnt?

honestly, besides the 7a`s cam being sharper cause of the mps, i think that the 6a`s cam is actually better! as for this vid, to my shock the iphone was better in the photos eccept maybe in 2 or 3

Pixel for sure, selfies look terrible on iPhone

iphone 14 better almost in every way

7a has a great camera but 14 pro is superior

Vumbora

Easy win for the iPhone but I’m sure this channel’s audience will stay loyal and prefer the Pixel.

iPhone doesn't heats up like pixels. And those bezel are 💩, same for battery life, screen and just 128GB of "storage".

Even on Pixel 7a, that has considerably worse balance compared to Pixel 7 / 7 Pro, the result is pretty much clear - Pixel takes the crown when it comes to photography in pretty much every shot, iPhones 14 Pro certainly comes ahead when taking a video. + The usual suspect telephoto on iPhone is pretty much rubbish.
