  1. I really lost it when I voted for shallower depth of field and finding out later it lost. It's so backwards but I guess that's how the average person views it.

  2. Aww shit , yeah! Just got the Note10+ 5G over the weekend! Super Happy with this phone! The camera notch doesn't even bother me like I thought it would! (Came from an S8+)

  3. The methodology has issues. It's not double blind, has a sample size of 1 photo per round, and is not randomized. It's a really great idea but you can't really draw too many conclusions from it

  4. I think you should alter the process from a k.o.-system to a league system so everyone competes against everyone twice, earns 3 points for a clear win, 1 for a draw if the result is within 45/55 and 0 points for a loss. so good phones don't end "out" immedately but on a lower rank in the league with still an option to win over all

  5. Samsung's camera has a variable aperture and it did that shot at f/2.4 I'm pretty sure which versus f/1.8 will have more in focus. You can force the f/1.5 shot with the natural bokeh but then you're not in auto mode.

  6. MKBHD you should do a blind test for the last 4.. And explain why did you pick each one. This would also educate us on identifying a good and great photo.
