  1. I don’t understand why anyone would vote A for low light with flash. It’s definitely washed out and out of focus. B on the other hand has lots of details.


  2. What a joke photo comparison… Most people choose the fake high saturation colors of galaxy. of course, the more richer colours, the better on our eyes. so people will choose most likely what looks better even if iphone actually had truer colors. Lowlight photo on galaxy had soft haze-like glows while iphone had none. You can actually use post processing techniques by using photo editors to enhance contrast and brightness of photos. So iphone photos appear to have raw and real colors compare to galaxy.


    • You can always use the RAW output of S6 (.dng format) if you don’t want its “fake high saturation colors.”


    • “iPhone Fan Boy na walang Iphone Alert”


    • Tagalugin mo na lang, pare. Medyo masakit sa mata yun Grammar mo. You’re the joke.


    • hindi masamang magtagalog at magmumukha ka lang katawa-tawa kung ipipilit mo ang “kahusayan” mo sa pagsulat sa wikang ingles. punyeta!


    • I don’t need to be gramatically perfect to voice-out my opinion… people who think they’re smart because they look at grammar make them the bigger foundation and institution of idiocracy…


    • It is better to create something that others criticize than create nothing and criticize others…. Somebody said…


  3. Lmao look at all these immature android users. You don’t see a single iOS user on the comment bashing but 2-3 android users are. Show that the age group of android are between 5-10 years old insecure kids.


  4. If you can’t understand my english, may be your brain is the bigger joke… Haha – was expecting…


  5. This photo comparsion is as best as my grammar from my last post…. Haha..


  6. Another thing, why compare a 16 mp camera resolution versus a 12 mp camera?


    • Resolution doesn’t matter as photos appear clearer or dull base on the senaor, if you know what I mean, mr/ms genius?
