Are you in the market for a new camera phone in 2022? If so, you may be wondering how the newly released Huawei Mate 50 Pro stacks up against the upcoming iPhone 14 Pro in terms of camera quality. Huawei and Leica have a history of creating some of the best camera phones, with the P20 Pro being a standout example. However, after the two companies parted ways, the Mate 50 Pro was one of the first high-profile devices to launch without Leica’s involvement in the camera. So, how does it compare to the iPhone 14 Pro?

Taking a Photo:

If you like the photos taken by recent iPhone models, you may also appreciate the camera on the Huawei Mate 50 Pro as both tend to produce natural colors and tones, rather than the oversaturation found in some rival devices. However, there are notable distinctions between the two, making it difficult to determine a clear winner in this aspect. While the two cameras may have similar tones, the Mate 50 Pro stands out with its technical prowess and DSLR-like tuning, allowing it to produce stunning photos with minimal effort required from the photographer beyond their creative vision.


 

Verdict

In conclusion, both the iPhone 14 Pro and Mate 50 Pro have impressive camera specs and software enhancements, making it hard to choose a clear winner. If you’re looking for a camera phone that produces natural tones and has technical prowess, the Mate 50 Pro may be the right choice for you. However, if you’re a fan of the recent iPhone models’ photos, the iPhone 14 Pro may also be a great option.
