Verizon Cameraphone Comparison Q2 2009

Test 1: Pictures taken outside during broad daylight

Out of all the tests we did, this is the most important, considering that a majority of people use their cameras for taking pictures outside during the day.  Therefore, these images tell a lot about the overall performance of each camerphone.


In our daytime test, the enV Touch comes in at 1st place.  Images have the best color saturation and are “true to life”, as well as having excellent fine detail and being properly exposed.  The Omnia comes in 2nd place, since details and colors are also quite good, but images can be a bit over-exposed (too bright) depending on where the sun is located.  The Exilim gets 3rd place, as images look generally better than the enV3, but there is some distortion (blurriness) around the edges.  This is in every picture we took, but some are more noticeable than others.  The enV3 is a at 4th place, due to images looking a bit warm (red hue) and a few being slightly out-of-focus (since it lacks autofocus).
