[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] VictorC:
Hi all, I'm posting this here as well. Hope it's ok ;)

So, I got a chance today - with the help of xda member [MENTION=1854969]MarsLights[/MENTION] - to compare my Samsung S7 Edge with Isocell sensor and his Samsung S7 Edge with Sony sensor. We did a short test, with auto and manual mode and I'll post details of each shot before each set. I also did a Juxtapose of the two images so you can have a feel of the whole picture the two sensors take -> So please see those Juxtapose comparisons by clicking the link and opening them in a new tab (XDA doesn't seem to allow me to embed them with their iframe)

Al shots were take with the phones on a tripod. First one in each set is woth the Isocell Sensor and the second one with the Sony sensor.

1. Auto, HDR auto (even with the HDR turned off it still got the same result so I won't bother posting that too)

Isocell - ISO 250, 1/10 sec,

Sony - ISO 250, 1/10 sec

NOTE - in the Isocell photo the withe balance tends to be more red-ish. Just look at the sky in the background.

2. Manual/Pro Mode - ISO set to 100, Exposure time to 1/6 and auto WB:

NOTE - Again, the Isocell photo is more warmer and darker than the Sony one.

3. Manual/Pro Mode - ISO set to 100, Exposure time to 1/6, WB set to 3700 K (because both sensor would return previous photos a little to red-ish/yellow-ish seeing as how the lights in the square are actually white led lights)

Comparison here: https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/juxt...html?uid=95109a14-e7c3-11e5-a524-0e7075bba956

NOTE - Although both are set to the same white balance (3700 K), there is a clear difference between the two.

4. Auto, HDR on auto

ISOCELL - ISO 1250, 1/10 sec

Sony - ISO 1600, 1/10 sec

Comparison here: https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/juxt...html?uid=454bca16-e7c4-11e5-a524-0e7075bba956

NOTE In this scene the phones captured more light that we could actually see with our own eyes. Again, the Isocell delivered a more warmer image, but it did actually get more crisp details if you zoom in on each photos.

5. Manual/Pro Mode - ISO set to 200, exposure to 1/4 sec

Comparison here: https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/juxt...html?uid=2a6cdc76-e7c4-11e5-a524-0e7075bba956

NOTE - In this setting the Isocell managed to gather more light than the SOny sensor.

6. Manual/Pro Mode - ISO set to 100, exposure to 1/2 sec

Comparison here: https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/juxt...html?uid=657688c6-e7c4-11e5-a524-0e7075bba956

NOTE Again, in this setting, the Isocell managed to pull in a bit more light.

My small conclusion is that both sensor deliver similar performance and the difference between the two are negligible. With that being said, I do think that the Isocell sensor needs more calibrating on the white balance front...

What do you think?

P.S. If it's ok with the Admins around here, I'll post this on the thread regarding the Isocell VS sony too. If not, please feel free to delete one of them.
