5-megapixel GSM Cameraphone Comparison Q4 2007

Test 1: Pictures, taken in the open, in broad daylight

In this test there is plenty of light, which is what a camera needs to produce high-quality images. All phones exposed the scene in similar way, which is pretty close to the Canon camera, but each has its own “temper”, with typical for it color representation and detail. The latter is still problem even for the best - although there is lots of light, still once the image is previewed in full size it is visible that the detail is blurred and noise is present. This is very important test, as the majority of images are taken in similar lightning conditions, during the day.




Here surprisingly for us, the Samsung G600 behaved as a phone from a higher class and in almost any situation was way better than the competition. Its images are sharper, with better detail and less noise. We think it is the clear winner in this test! It is not so about the next on the list: the N82, N95, K850 and G800 all have different performance, but as a whole there overall quality is very similar. In some scenes the one is better, in other the second, etc. What is clear is that the Viewty is on the bottom of the list, with less than ideal colors and detail.
