Here we show you the camera showdown between the iQOO 11 and the OnePlus 11, let’s see, which one makes the user snap-happy.
Just a month into 2023 and we already have two flagship phones in India powered by Qualcomm’s top-notch Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. iQOO was the first to launch its premium smartphone, the iQOO 11, with this processor, and now the OnePlus 11 is also here. Both companies claim that their phones offer the best camera experience, but which one will make the user snap-happy? Well, find out the answer in this comparison, where we put the cameras of both phones against each other and test them in every possible scenario.
I’ll begin this comparison with a daytime landscape photo, with HDR set to auto. You can see that there is a significant difference between the two images. The photo captured by iQOO 11 has a cool tone and is a bit saturated. In contrast, the colours on the OnePlus 11 image are subtle, but the colour tone here also doesn’t appear to be true to the original. Unlike the iQOO 11, the OnePlus 11 captures a warmer tone in the photos, as seen in prior OnePlus devices.
One thing I’d like to point out is that, while the iQOO 11 captures cool tones with saturated colours, the grass in the iQOO’s shot has different shades that we generally see with our naked eyes, but on OnePlus 11’s photo it seems exactly the same from one corner to the other. Hence, the iQOO 11 can be declared the winner for this round as it doesn’t alter the colours of any object.
Winner: iQOO 11
Following the standard shot, I captured the same scenario in ultra-wide angle mode as well. The OnePlus 11 and the iQOO 11 both have the same colour balance as seen in the previous daylight shot. The OnePlus 11 captures warm-toned photos, whilst the iQOO 11 captures cooler-toned pictures. In addition, the grass in these snaps appears to be the same as we saw in the daylight landscape shots.
Here I’d like to point out is that the OnePlus 11 has a 48MP ultra-wide angle sensor while the iQOO 11 has an 8MP sensor, but after zooming the photos to full crop I didn’t notice much of a difference in the detailing, although I could observe some high light clipping in iQOO’s images, the 8MP camera sensor looks almost as sharp as the OnePlus 11’s 48MP camera, I was quite disappointed by OnePlus. Since, the iQOO captured colours that were similar to the natural scenario, I would once again consider it the winner.
Winner: iQOO 11
Although the sensors are different, both phones include a lens which is capable of taking photos at 2x optical zoom. The iQOO 11 sports a 13MP telephoto lens, while the OnePlus 11 has a 32MP camera. In the shots above, you can clearly notice the difference in colour balance in both. The iQOO 11 captured an image with a better colour tone this time, while the photo captured from OnePlus 11 looked the same. You’ll also observe that the stones on top of the fountain in the OnePlus 11 snap look yellow in colour.
