Micromax is an Indian smartphone manufacturer that aims to find a place in the competitive smartphone niche.
The company has been following in the footsteps of the Korean giant, Samsung, in terms of smartphone manufacturing. The release of Micromax Canvas Knight A350 handset brings the company into the high-end smartphone segment, but available at a reasonable price. The handset features great design and aesthetics.
In comparison today, the Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8 handset is a unique handset. It comprises of a medium range spec sheet, but the appearance of the handset makes the buyer assume it to be a beast of a smartphone. The massive 5.8-inch display is the stand out feature of the handset, but comes with a lower resolution. In addition, the smartphones hardware does not appear impressive as well.
Today, let us stack up the two handsets against each other to determine the one with better camera features.
Camera
Micromax Canvas Knight A350
The 16MP camera from OmniVision, accompanied with M8 lens from Largan, enables the user to capture impressive photographs, both indoors and outdoors. The camera offers quick focus speed with good quality photos, especially under indoor lighting. The handset offers the user additional features such as 3D Panorama, Remove Object and GIF animation, which work pretty well.
In terms of shooting modes, the handset offers the user Smile Shot, HDR and Auto Scene detection. However, the voice detection equipped in the A350 camera may not work well all the time. In addition, the burst mode can be adjusted to 40 or 99 shots. However, the interface appears polished with all camera settings being user friendly and responsive.
The A350’s camera handles the dynamic range superbly, captures decent details and comes with HDR mode. The camera provides detailed indoor shots with less noise.
The user facing 8MP camera produces decent pictures and is good for selfies and video calls, limited to 720p only.
Samsung Galaxy Mega 5.8
In comparison, the Mega 5.8 offers the user with a decent 8MP snapper with LED flash and autofocus features. The camera comes equipped with simple and clean UI, making it user friendly and rich in features. The built-in shooting modes and filters, inclusive of Panorama, Burst Shot and Beauty Face are great. However, the camera lacks night mode and HDR, which is a disappointment.
Photos taken in daytime, with Mega 5.8 camera, offer detailed and sharp results. Colors are not over saturated but pleasant, with overall above average performance. Videos can be captured at 1080p, which are detailed and run smoothly at 30 fps. In comparison, indoor photos offer less detail and more noise.
