Blind camera comparison: iPhone 14 Pro Max BEATS OnePlus 11, Galaxy S23 Ultra, and Pixel 7 Pro!
The OnePlus 11 arrived with a moderate bang, hoping to reinvigorate the OnePlus brand and repair its somewhat damaged public image, which suffered a bit in the past few years immediately after the merger with Chinese giant Oppo. Well, the OnePlus 11 definitely has the makings for a pretty appealing phone, with great hardware, capable Hasselblad camera, and finally, a very aggressive price tag that definitely puts it on the map
To recap, the OnePlus 11 camera has the following hardware going on for it:
- 50MP wide (main) camera, Sony IMX890 sensor, f/1.8 aperture
- 48MP ultra-wide camera, Sony IMX581 sensor, f/2.2
- 32MP 2X zoom camera, Sony IMX709 sensor, f/2.0 (up to 20X digital zoom)
- 16MP front camera, ISOCELL 3P9 (S5K3P9) sensor
But the question remains: is this enough to make it a fan favorite and actually tip the scales in its favor in direct comparison with the current crop of behemoths on the US cameraphone scene, the super-versatile Galaxy S23 Ultra, the superb iPhone 14 Pro Max, and finally, the Pixel 7 Pro that punches way above its weight?
