HTC One vs Nokia Lumia 920 - Ultrapixel Camera And PureView Camera, But Which One Better?

(GSM Insider) - HTC One vs Nokia Lumia 920 - Ultrapixel Camera And PureView Camera, But Which One Better?

In a recent post, GSM Insider compared the specs between the new HTC One against Nokia Lumia 920 and Nokia Lumia 820. In this post, it's about the comparison between the Ultrapixel Camera and the PureView Camera. 

When HTC launched the new HTC One, the main attention was focused on the Ultrapixel Camera. This Ultrapixel Camera is said to be a breakthrough for the smartphone and its time to say goodbye to megapixel.  On the other hand, Nokia brought the PureView Camera from the Nokia 808 PureView and used it in the Nokia Lumia 920. Nokia described the PureView Camera is the best in the industry. Since HTC and Nokia said that their own camera is the best, you might want to know the comparison between the Ultrapixel Camera and PureView Camera. The answers at below:



Image / photo captured by PureView Camera of Nokia Lumia 920



Image / photo captured by Ultrapixel Camera of new HTC One


Image / photo captured by PureView Camera of Nokia Lumia 920



Image / photo captured by Ultrapixel Camera of new HTC One


Image / photo captured by PureView Camera of Nokia Lumia 920



Image / photo captured by Ultrapixel Camera of new HTC One

To remind you that the HTC One that captured these images above did not install with any software since it is not the final version. Only the HTC Zoe was running while the images being captured. On the other hand, the Nokia Lumia 920 is the consumer product. The PureView Camera with default settings being used for capturing the images above. 

From the first set of images / photos, the one that captured by Nokia Lumia 920 is definitely looking sharper and brighter than the HTC One. The PureView Camera offers richer details about the image while Ultrapixel Camera not really impressive. 

From the second set of images / photos, the one that captured by Ultrapixel Camera of HTC One looks a bit darker while the one captured by PureView of Nokia Lumia 920 looks sharper and rich in colors. 

From the third set of images / photos, the answer is clear and the PureView Camera of Nokia Lumia 920 defeats the Ultrapixel Camera of HTC One. The image captured by the PureView Camera looks more golden in color while the Ultrapixel Camera's image looks grey-ish and darker. 

Although the images above clearly showed that PureView Camera works greatly under the low light conditions. But more photo samples are require to proof the PureView Camera is the clear cut winner over the Ultrapixel Camera.
