Here’s a look at how the camera on the Samsung Galaxy S6 performs against the iPhone 6. The iPhone 6 features an 8MP camera with 1.5-micron pixels and f2.2 aperture. The Samsung Galaxy S6 has a 16 megapixel sensor with an f1.9 aperture.
Both CNET and The Verge had the opportunity to test out the devices.
To find out, we put the S6 head to head with the iPhone 6 Plus to see how it fared in a variety of situations. As it turns out, the S6 can hang: it’s very close to the iPhone in terms of image quality and detail. The S6 shots are a little warmer, but not offensively so, and the two phones handle low-light a bit differently.

The Galaxy S6 and the iPhone 6 were pretty neck-and-neck. Personally, I’d give the Galaxy S6 the slight edge, since I’m partial to its saturated tones that come off bright without looking too unrealistic (a characteristic that plagued Galaxy cameras before).
