Pixel 4 versus Samsung Galaxy Z Flip camera comparison: missing the mark

The new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is currently the best foldable-display smartphone on the market, featuring similar camera tech to last year’s Galaxy S10 lineup. On paper, the Galaxy Z Flip should take decent pictures, but to see if it’s any good in the real world, we decided to match it up against the Google Pixel 4.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Review: a great phone few should buy

For its two main cameras, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip sports two 12MP sensors, paired with f/1.8, 27mm (standard) and f/2.2, 12mm (ultrawide) lenses. Up front, Samsung has given the phone a 10MP front-facing camera with an f/2.4, 26mm lens. All three of the cameras can capture 4K video at 60 fps. On the Pixel 4, the main camera also features a 12MP sensor with an f/1.7, 27mm lens and a 16MP sensor paired with an f/2.4, 50mm (telephoto) lens. The selfie camera up front features a 8 MP, f/2.0, 22mm setup. On the video side, the Pixel 4 is at a big disadvantage since its rear cameras can only record 4K video at 30fps while the front-facing camera is limited to 1080p at 30 fps.
