IPhone 5 vs Nexus 5S test their video camera

The Apple iPhone 5S is often compared to Nexus 5 of Google, which is normal, as they were released almost simultaneously and especially because there is a big competition between Apple (iOS) and Google ( Android). If the technical characteristics of these two smartphones should not be a secret, you're probably wondering which one offers the best digital camera? A video featuring face to face these two terminals will definitely help you to have an answer to this question.

Hardware

To put you in context, it should be remembered that the Nexus 5 has a sensor type BIS 8 MP with a OIS optical image stabilizer that can shoot in Full HD and supported by an LED flash, and another sensor 1.3 MP located at the front which is also capable of shooting 080p 1.

For its part, the iPhone 5S offers large pixels digital camera 8 MP which offers automatic image stabilization and a larger light sensor. The main camera is capable of shooting Full HD, and is supported by a dual LED flash which is configurable. In front stands a 1.2 MP camera with a larger sensor also light, which is capable of shooting 720p HD.

Face to face

For starters, the tester is considered the front camera both terminals apparently generally offer similar performance when taking a video, although the Nexus 5 has a slight advantage. In fact, the videos seem to be self-portrait taken overexposed, even if we are aware that there was only one test performed in a well lit environment.

On the main camera (the one on the back of 2 SIM), we will simply say that there is no real winner. The iPhone 5S offers a manual focus while recording a video, while the Nexus 5 lacks this feature. For cons, the Nexus 5 is greater than the iPhone 5S on the sound while recording a video.

However, the iPhone beats the Nexus 5S 5 when it comes to image quality, especially if you disable the HDR function on the mobile phone from LG and Google. By cons, once the HDR enabled, the Nexus 5 offers a better contrast. Finally, the iPhone 5S offers better picture quality when it comes to take a picture with the flash.

Conclusion

Anyway, this is a quick test which is based on the differences immediately obvious. But we will offer soon a further test, because we have the Nexus 5 in our office, you just put one hand on a new iPhone 5S ...
