Moving on to low light, we've prepped a comparison between the HTC One (M8) and Sony Xperia Z2 with and without their flashes enabled. The larger pixels of the HTC One (M8) camera should give it an edge in low-light conditions (though we are yet to see if they will be able to make up for the smaller sensor), but the low-res camera simply can't compete when the lighting conditions are good. Sony Xperia Z2 vs the HTC One (M8) in our photo quality comparison tool Here goes out photo quality comparison tool if you want to check out resolution, sharpness, noise and color performance under lab conditions.

As follows those are of the Sony Xperia Z2 in Superior Auto mode at 8 MP in 16:9, the 4 MP 16:9 HTC One (M8) ones and finally full resolution Sony Xperia Z2 20.7 MP Manual mode images. When we view the 20.7 MP vs the 4 MP samples, the difference in total resolved detail is even more dramatic, even if the Sony Xperia Z2 no longer leads in the per-pixel battle.Īs usual if you want to do some extensive pixel peeping yourselves we've secured the full resolution shots. As you can see the HTC One (M8) can barely match the Sony Xperia Z2 at per-pixel level - hardly ideal when you have 2 times fewer pixels as is the case when you use the Superior Auto mode on the Xperia Z2. The Sony cameraphone manages to pull out much more detail and everything looks crisper and sharper.Ĭolor balance is another area where the Xperia Z2 seems to have an advantage - while neither phone is spot on, we find its warmer colors better than the colder ones on the HTC One (M8).Īnd now the crops from the native resolutions. When shooting objects that are further away, such as landscape or cityscape, the HTC One (M8)'s lower resolution becomes a bigger liability as there are simply not enough pixels to describe the different objects. The processing isn't quite ideal on either contender - there are obvious traces of oversharpening on the (M8), while the Xperia Z2 suffers from overly aggressive noise reduction. The HTC One (M8) is a different story - it can't even come closer to the amount of detail its rival resolves. It even manages to show the wall texture. The Sony Xperia Z2 does a fine job of detailing the scene and doesn't struggle with small, low-contrast objects like the fence or the edges of the walls. You'd expect to see the best of both performers in good light where the sensor can gulp up as much detail as possible. We've also included a couple of crops showing the detail from both phones at their natural resolution - 4 MP vs 8 MP and 20.7 MP. Downsizing the Xperia Z2 samples would have been unfair as it would have resulted in loss of detail. We have a full set of full resolution images waiting as well and we've taken them on the HTC One (M8) at the maximum 4 MP resolution as well as 8 MP in Superior Auto and 20.7 MP in Manual mode from the Sony Xperia Z2.įirst we upsized the HTC One (M8) 4 MP samples to 8 MP and 20.7 MP as that would allow us to compare the resolved detail to those of the Xperia Z2. Since we're dealing with two very different sensors here we're going to show you a few 100% crops and compare them.
