Revealed at the Galaxy Unpacked livestream on Wednesday, the S23 Ultra\u2019s big claim to fame is its powerful new camera system.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But is it better than the best-in-class <a href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/review\/google-pixel-7-pro-review\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>Google Pixel 7 Pro<\/u><\/a>? Let\u2019s look at the numbers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Samsung\u2019s major selling point this year is a brand new 200MP main sensor. Yes, two hundred megapixels. It\u2019s a very big, impressive-looking number, and it\u2019s joined by a 12MP ultrawide lens and a pair of 10MP zoom lenses. Samsung is promising that this new camera array can produce unparalleled zoomed-in photography, with its \u201cSpace Zoom\u201d feature enabling up to 100x zoom.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mx-auto mt-8 max-w-3xl\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-col space-y-4 md:flex-row md:space-y-0 md:space-x-4\">\n<div class=\"w-full md:w-1\/2\">\n                                        <img style=\"width:100%;\" class=\"w-full border border-gray-100\"src=\"\" alt=\"Pixel 7 Pro zoom test with no zoom\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"376\" height=\"499\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"mt-4 font-sans text-left subtitle-2\">\n                                            <span class=\"normal-case text-gray-1000\">This is the Pixel 7 Pro with no zoom.<\/span><br \/>\n                                                                <span class=\"text-gray-600 capitalize credit\">Credit: Alex Perry\/Mashable<\/span>\n                                    <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"w-full md:w-1\/2\">\n                                        <img class=\"w-full border border-gray-100\"src=\"\" alt=\"Pixel 7 Pro zoom test with full zoom\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"376\" height=\"499\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"mt-4 font-sans text-left subtitle-2\">\n                                            <span class=\"normal-case text-gray-1000\">And this is the Pixel 7 Pro with full zoom.<\/span><br \/>\n                                                                <span class=\"text-gray-600 capitalize credit\">Credit: Alex Perry\/Mashable<\/span>\n                                    <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>However, it\u2019s going to be hard to dethrone the Pixel 7 Pro. Its 50MP main sensor isn\u2019t as big as Samsung\u2019s, but it has a 48MP telephoto lens that can zoom up to 30x. Again, the numbers aren\u2019t as big, but the results speak for themselves. Pixel 7 Pro takes some of the most impressive zoom photographs on any smartphone, so Samsung has a lot to live up to there.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and both phones have 12MP ultrawide lenses, in case you were wondering.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mx-auto mt-8 w-full max-w-3xl font-sans text-lg leading-loose md:text-xl md:leading-7\">\n        <span class=\"font-bold text-primary-400\">SEE ALSO:<\/span><br \/>\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/review\/google-pixel-7-pro-review\" class=\"text-secondary-300\"><br \/>\n            Pixel 7 and 7 Pro review: Google weaves its camera magic again<br \/>\n            <svg class=\"inline-block ml-1 w-4 h-4 font-normal fill-current\"><use href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/images\/icons\/spritemap.svg#sprite-arrow-right-thin\"><\/use><\/svg><br \/>\n        <\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<p>People around the tech world will need to do a lot of photo testing to find out which phone camera is truly <em>better<\/em> in practice, not just on the spec sheet. Samsung and Google both employ a ton of software processing to make photos look better, and there isn\u2019t feature parity between the two. Google has the Magic Eraser tool and Samsung has 100x Space Zoom, for example.<\/p>\n<p>But, at the very least, Samsung can say it has the most megapixels. Maybe that will count for something.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who can zoom harder, Samsung or Google?
