DXOMARK unveiled the photographic evaluation results for the iPhone 15 Pro

On this day, October 10th, DXOMARK unveiled the photographic evaluation results for the iPhone 15 Pro. Achieving an aggregate score of 154 points, it ties with the iPhone 15 Pro Max, jointly securing the second position on the overall leaderboard.

Based on the assessment, the iPhone 15 Pro’s photographic experience boasts the following merits:

– The screen’s HDR display is impeccable, rendering images with vivid luminosity and contrast upon review.
– Night-time captures exhibit precise exposure.
– It adeptly replicates ambient hues and human skin tones, producing an aesthetically pleasing and natural color palette.
– Under ample illumination, the captured images reveal a wealth of detail.
– The autofocus operates with swiftness and impressive accuracy.
– Its video stabilization capabilities are formidable, enhancing usability substantially.

However, the iPhone 15 Pro’s photographic prowess isn’t without its flaws:

– In low-light conditions, images exhibit discernible noise.
– The dynamic range of the photographs is marginally constrained.
– Issues of lens flare and ghosting persist.
– Telephoto quality is mediocre, with a noticeable lack of intricate details.

Concluding, DXOMARK highlighted:

Given that both the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max employ identical image sensors and chips, the quality of their photographs and videos is nearly indistinguishable.

Yet, a notable distinction arises in their telephoto lens configurations. While the iPhone 15 Pro Max features a 5x periscopic telephoto lens, the iPhone 15 Pro is equipped with a conventional 3x telephoto lens. This divergence manifests conspicuously in distant shots; the Pro excels in mid-range scenarios, while the Pro Max’s prowess shines in more distant captures.

In summation, the iPhone 15 Pro’s telephoto score slightly lags behind that of the iPhone 15 Pro Max. However, given the lesser weightage of the telephoto segment in our evaluation paradigm, this minor discrepancy doesn’t impact the overall scores, resulting in a tie between the two models.
