Last time, we took a "simple" photo comparison of Xiaomi 11 Ultra to One Plus 9 Pro, vivo X60 Pro+and Xiaomi 10 Ultra. At the request of the reader, after updating MIUI 12.0.10 (this OTA has nothing to do with the camera), replace Huawei Mate 40 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max for photo comparison.
This photo review has increased the proportion and number of daytime proofs and backlit scenes. A large number of proofs (see the progress bar, which is really high) are piled up, so that everyone can form a general impression. There are always scenes that meet your needs.
In the article "Special Mode Photography PK: Mate 40 Pro vs. Xiaomi 11 Ultra, One Plus 9 Pro, iPhone", we compared and analyzed the differences between several mobile phones in 3.3x hybrid zoom, manual and automatic super night scenes. If you are interested, you can check the previous push. This article is mainly for the main camera, ultra wide angle and 5x zoom.
However, the firmware of Xiaomi 11 Ultra is not stable. To make a final conclusion, we have to wait until the OTA firmware of Xiaomi 11 Ultra is released in April (unfortunately, the mobile phone has not been fully used for more than half a month).
The order of camera specifications is Xiaomi 11 Ultra>Mate 40 Pro>One Plus 9 Pro>iPhone 12 Pro Max. Although Apple finally upgraded the 1.4 μ m family heirloom camera (1/2.55 '') to 1.7 μ m (but still less than 1/1.7 ''), the specifications of the main and secondary cameras in its flagship are still very backward (high EQ: the hardware is tight, but the algorithm is good).
The strongest ultra wide angle sensor is the 1/1.56 inch IMX766 of Yijia/OPPO, while the 1/1.54 inch 3:2 sensor of Huawei ultra wide angle has a smaller area of about 1.33% due to different proportions.
The ultra long focal length is more powerful than Xiaomi 11 Ultra. The 5 times focal length plus the 2 times digital cutting of IMX586 can completely cover the 5 to 10 times focal length. One plus 9 Pro has 3.3 times the focus, because there are only 8 million pixels, and the specification is "five to five" compared with 2.5 times the telephoto of the iPhone 12 Pro Max.

Comparison of super wide angle daytime scenes
The ultra wide angle of Mate 40 Pro is 3:2, and the proportion is slim, which aggravates the problem of insufficient field of vision of its 18mm "telephoto ultra wide angle".

Huawei has a small and wide perspective, so there is no edge degradation problem. When free surfaces are added, the edges are also very calm. The edge control of the iPhone is OK, but Xiaomi 11 Ultra, the largest ultra wide angle at present, will have obvious distortion and edge degradation.

summary
5x telephoto: Xiaomi 11 Ultra (the absolute discrimination of 5x zoom is not as good as that of Mate 40 Pro, but the tolerance is slightly stronger. The high pixel mode that triggers IMX586 at 5x is its home court)>Mate 40 Pro>iPhone 12 Pro Max>One Plus 9 Pro (at first glance, the multiple of 3.3x is high, but 8MP pixels are not enough)
Ultra wide angle: One plus 9 Pro>Xiaomi 11 Ultra>iPhone 12 Pro Max. The Mate 40 Pro "telephoto ultra wide-angle" is too special, so it will not be arranged. Those who pursue the power of discrimination feel that it is the strongest in the earth (use the field of vision for details, 18mm, and the power of discrimination rolls over all mobile phones, including Mate 40 Pro+). However, those who pursue a super wide angle field of vision feel that it is not worthy of being called "super wide angle" (the main camera defaults to 0.8 times, the super wide angle is 0.7 times, and the field of vision is smaller if it is still 3:2 pictures)
Main camera:
Mate 40 Pro， Both the two sub cameras need a long background synthesis time, and the photography experience is average. It has the strongest highlight suppression today, and the effect is very close to that seen by the naked eye. At first glance, the contrast and discrimination are high, but in fact, the application force is light, and there are "AI details". The actual details are slightly weaker than Xiaomi 11 Ultra GN2. The automatic mode of extremely low light scenes is also very strong (the discrimination is better than your 8-second long exposure night scene mode, and the noise changes the discrimination), which is very balanced overall.
Xiaomi 11 Ultra, The main picture of GN2 is natural, rich in details and extremely tolerant. HDR is active. Although the highlight suppression is not as good as Huawei, it has made significant progress. The night view mode in extremely low light is far stronger than the automatic mode. It can play happily with Huawei. The waiting time is short and the experience is good. However, there are still many imperfections in the algorithm, and OTA is urgently needed:
White balance is unstable;
The 3.3x zoom has not been mixed yet. In exif information, the focal length is only 1.6 times (black question mark on the spot), and the whole process depends on subjective cutting;
Ultra wide angle is still in "UI night view mode", and the effect is no different from the automatic mode;
The ultra wide angle focusing is not stable, and the IMX586 has not been able to leave the ultra wide angle of the iPhone;
The night owl algorithm is very strong, but the automatic night scene calls another algorithm, and even cannot win the iPhone
One plus 9 Pro Although it is a blues Hasu, the white balance is more red and green. The main photography is very sharp, with strong sense of monosodium glutamate and oil painting. Noise reduction is not very hard, and there are many details left, but the noise is unrestrained. When taking photos, it is equivalent to 1/1.43 inch CMOS. The engineer really tried his best to have such brightness and detail in extremely weak light.
iPhone 12 Pro Max， Except that the white balance and metering of complex light scenes will deviate, and the highlight suppression is weak, most scenes are faithful reductionists and perform well. The upper limit of 1.7 μ m is not high, but the lower limit is high. In addition, the multi frame synthesis algorithm is really good for such weak UWA and telephoto.
This story tells us that it is really "the manufacturers who are tough enough in hardware will have enough power to optimize the algorithm".
