You only posted 1 video, I ignored nothing that was relevant.

He most definitely does use raw photos to bring up darks and lower highlights. Maybe I’m thinking of another photographer, but the iPhone still won either way. iPhone X doesn’t have smartHDR or the new ISP or the 8-Core neural engine Can’t really tell what you are trying to say here. Yes the, smartHDR on the iPhone is made possible my taking many photos in rapid succession at different exposure levels and combining them into 1, well exposed image. Shooting in RAW and trying to manipulate the image to expose it properly results in a loss of detail. You can’t enhance data the sensor never got, something the new iPhones don’t have to deal with. As for bringing the photos to a PC.....I don’t understand what you’re trying to say there. Are you implying that if you threw a RAW photo into Lightroom and tried to expose it properly, unless you had a $2,000 camera you’d be wrong because of what I said above^ And like I said, unless you spend money on the big guns, iPhone XR is going to capture more detail, but admittedly probably less accurate color, than a DSLR taking a single RAW photo.

Of course not. But when you have to start bringing out cameras like that, just to be smug that it’s better than a camera like this ....then yeah, I think the Camera team in the giant space donut are pretty happy with what they made.

He did that....in the video If you've got to compare a $2,000 Camera to a $750 phone then I think Apple has accomplished their goal for the XR and Xs.

You could watch the video I linked? And see the evidence for yourself?

Ok, so you knew that, in your view, smartphone cameras are irrelevant to you.....just gonna leave that there.

Yes, yes it is. That is why it performs so well in testing for a smartphone camera designed for point and shoot captures.

Which is infinitely less portable, convenient, lacks endurance in terms of battery life, and probably requires you to edit the photo after (assuming you're shooting in RAW like you should be if you're going to tout DSLRs), and also has inferior video and audio recording capabilities* iPhone XR can record video with dynamic HDR in 4K which takes the same smartHDR technology on iPhone XR/s (Max) to video So actually iPhone XR would probably capture a better photos and videos in low light conditions than you're DSLR, even when shooting RAW, thanks to how much on board processing can be done with the A12 Bionic.

The simple fact that these acts are so common does not change just because you don't understand why people do them. Being able to do stuff like that well is important to a lot of people.

All that test did was show that Media platforms compress the hell out of everything to the point where what would otherwise be a potato photo is actually competitive with flagships.

I believe Australia said math doesnt matter, only Australia matters. Or something alone those lines. The EU and the common wealth, cities upon the hill for rights and protections

Drivers are not the problem with that card, the problem is that card is just trash and gaming in macOS relies on OpenGL or Metal. In the case of fortnite, OpenGL. If you are trying to game you have to install Windows through Bootcamp and play that way if you want the full performance of any GPU in a Mac.
