iPhone 12 Pro Max Absolutely Destroyed By OnePlus 8T In MKBHD's Blind Camera Test

Karamchand Rameshwar - Dec 04, 2020

The iPhone 12 Pro Max with a starting price of Rs. 1,29,900 is absolutely destroyed by the OnePlus 8T with a starting price of Rs. 42,999.

Every year, the famous YouTuber Marques Brownlee (MKBHD) takes a blind camera test with two phones selected by his followers.

Mkbhd Camera Blind Test Iphone 12 Pro — MKBHD has just released his blind camera test 2020.

Earlier this month, MKBHD released his latest camera test on his YouTube channel, and what surprised everyone was that in the first round, the iPhone 12 Pro Max is beaten by the OnePlus 8T. The reason why it is a surprise is due to the price difference. The iPhone 12 Pro Max price in India starts at Rs. 1,29,900 while the OnePlus 8T price in India starts at Rs. 42,999. You can see that Apple's most premium iPhone is three times as expensive as the OnePlus' latest offering.

Saying this is a blind test because it has no scientific basis and purely based on people’s opinions on which pictures are the best without knowing the devices used for picturing them. Marques posted the pictures on his social media site several days ago so that followers could pick the photos they liked more.

Last year, the high-end iPhone 11 Pro was beaten by the OnePlus 7T Pro in the 1st round. But if you think the results this year will be a little different when the iPhone 12 Pro Max has a terrific camera cluster, then ... you are wrong.

The photos in the test were taken by 16 different devices, featuring Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, Huawei Mate 40 Pro, Pixel 5, iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone SE 2020, among others. Surprisingly, both iPhones were inferior to their rivals!

The first pair is the iPhone SE 2020 and Motorola Moto Edge+ and MKBHD’s followers chose the photos taken by the Edge+ to be better. Then, they picked the photos taken by the OnePlus 8T Pro over those of the iPhone 12 Pro. In the final round, the two best smartphones were surprisingly the ZenFone 7 Pro and the Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra, and the former got the win.

Mkbhd Camera Blind Test Winner — The ZenFone 7 Pro edges out the Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra by a small margin.

Marques explains that these pictures he compares are completely untouched or even pre-calibrated because the idea behind the test is to see which smartphone takes the best shot at fully automatic mode.
