Nice, looks like they where able to pack a ton of stuff on that board. You guys should definitely invest in a macro lens though.

While I hadn't intended on doing video, I was planning on doing a full tear-down with pictures this weekend (I have a 4-day weekend). I haven't watched the video posted here (no youtube at work), but from the sounds of it... High quality pictures would be appreciated.

A lot of the time it was too close to focus, a macro lens would correct that.
My teardown is done, no video, but pictures.

Hey is the atrix's camera better than the iphone 4's?
I've read many reviews, and it looks like the atrix 4g's camera is just average.
This is kind of depressing , considering I wanted a phone with a nice camera.
I would ssay the camera is alright, but I saw some comparison pictures today that showed they weren't as good as the iPhone 4's pics.
Of course things like for and saturation can be fixed with a little light edititjng, but who wants to do that right?

Definitely a purple bluish tint. Although that does suck, I will have my Captivate as a backup.

In my experience with the HTC EVO, the auto white-balance in Android, in a word, blows. However, selecting the white-balance for the situation at hand works great.
Comparing the Atrix 4g camera to the iphone 4 camera? To a phone that took how many years to even get a decent camera? And sadly, with as many co-workers of mine who have the iphone 4, I can tell you that it's camera ain't that great. The iphone 4 finally got a 5mp camera. Wow, so impressive... Score one for apple! Why don't we wait and judge the camera quality in real life.

Please lay off the myth that more MP=more quality. The quality of a camera is related to the quality and the size of the lens. I couldn't care less if a phone's camera is 3MP as long as it has a good lens. The iphone4's camera has pretty big lens that's the reason the pictures are very nice for a phone.
Sadly the atrix has a crappy camera, but i am hopeful the purple tint can be fixed in a update.

wow you really are a hater arent you? the iphone 4 camera is actually real good for a camera phone. it's quick to start and takes some pretty good pictures. and ya the atrix 4g is not even out yet; but motorola has been in the camera phone market for years; so they've had even more time than apple to develop a good camera phone. i know your an apple hater; but learn to give credit where it's due; the iphone has many negatives; the camera is not one of them.
I'm just hoping the camera is better than the one I had on my aria.
Cant' remember the last time i thought "you know, that is so awesome i'll take a picture, let me grab my cell phone". None of them take amazing pictures, and if it's worth taking a picture of, i'll grab my real camera.
Cell phone can have the best lens physically possible for that size, and it's still defeated by the dust that collects over it.

your right; no camera phone will take a pic even close to my DSLR; but to be honest with you, the iphone4 takes pics that are good enough if they're just for my computer. the DSLR is bulky and isnt always there when you need it; your phone is usually always with you; so it's nice to have a phone that takes somewhat decent pictures. i remember when i first got my e71 and was so disappointed in the camera; hope the atrix is not the same. but it sure looked similar during engadgets review
Yes it's nice to have for little things, and i use it for that, i'm just saying i've never looked at a cell phone and thought "yes, this will replace my camera"
I'll reserve judgement for when i get mine. Engadget has been proving their incompetence more and more lately, so i put little to no faith in their ability to create fair or accurate tests.
I love having a camera in my pocket at all times but every phone I've ever had has taken disappointing pictures. My touch pro 2 takes alright/almost acceptable shots outside during the day but in low light its not even worth trying. I am looking forward to the led flash on the atrix but I'm sure it will be a while before a phone replaces stand alone cameras for even point and shoot average Joes.
I took this picture a few minutes ago. Let me know what you guys think.
http://plixi.com/p/78972232
And yes, it was with the Atrix.
Eh, for what I use my camera for (pictures at bars, on the beach, videos of people doing stupid ****), I don't need a 12 mp megashooter that can capture the individual pores on your nose. I'm just happy to finally have a flash on my phone.

My question is this; why is everybody going gaga over the camera in over the camera in the iphone when it took four generations for apple to finally install a halfway decent camera? In reality people should have been booing apple for the 3 phones with lousy cameras.

Those really are very good for a phone.
But, just too many other things I want my phone to do. And I think I am really tied into Android. I am really liking this cloud/mostly open source thing. So going Nokia/Microsoft would be going backwards for me, a former Windows Mobile 5 user. Would that camera and lens combo be great on my EVO 3D? Sure it would but a couple things, I suspect, would have to go.
The 3VO takes just good enough impromptu snapshots for me. If I want keepers, my Nikon D2X and 17-55 mm lens fits that bill.

Well, it is never going to. If you shoehorn a DX/FX size sensor into a phone, you still need the optics to capture that light. At which point you won't carry your phone around with you because the lens won't fit into your pocket.
BTW, if we were to compare the intent of the photos regardless of capture device, they would be subpar. That is, the photographer attempted to do serious macro and landscape work. If we were to judge the photos strictly on that, then they are subpar. But for a camera phone they are good. So what I am trying to say, professional photographs still need professional gear.
Those pics were very impressive. It would be nice if HTC put in camera's of this quality, but the pics the Evo 3d takes are good enough for me.

I said good, not professional. That Nokia camera seems to take the sort of shots I desire.
Anyway, I wouldn't say "never" -- who thought 5 years ago you'd have a phone with 3D capabilities?
Im pretty satisfied with the E3d camera, I give it a 7/10. Of course it could be better but it has exceeded my expectations and is a huge improvement over the E4g camera. Those Nokia pics are really good.
@dfin13 Five years ago I never thought I'd be streaming movies in 1080p on my phone. I think I was using a moto razr V3m, sidekick 3 and then a blackberry Pearl that year.
I've been getting photos pretty close to that good with the Evo 3D. Maybe not quite as shallow DOF but just as sharp. I'll try to post some another day. No time today.

Well I await the day they can change the physics of light and/or how we can capture it. I suspect I will be long gone.
As an aside, a gratuitous unnecessary shot at wedding photographers: If they can get that Nokia to sync to off camera flash, they then will be in heaven. Wedding photogs don't need detail, they apply 20 percent Gaussian blur to everything anyway. With a camera phone they can "connect" with their client even more.
Ducks head, as the lone wedding photog in the forum takes aim..
If I were to be in an exotic place, I'd certainly be using my dslr and not my phone.

Pretty sure you'll be long gone too, be careful what you wish for.
Nokia's phones are GREAT shooters. Probably the best when it comes to cameras on a cellphone.
HTC needs to step their game up. Half of it is software, and that sucks. I'm content with it, but a lot of things could be improved.
Get the app "Vignette" if you really want to take some great pictures.
How long will we have to wait until Engadget or GSM Arena release some real stuff about the device?
I'm guessing motorolla have not paid anyone to do reviews or given out review units, that's some shut advertising. I have been searching for reviews for awhile aswell. I want to see real world camera samples

You're being serious? Those pics looked really good to me. Excellent color and detail.
Pics look nice...especially the macro of that pink flower. At the images full size it looks crisp and detailed. I cant say the same for my Arc S which destroys detail beyond oblivion.
even review maker said "You can see a test of this below, along with test camera shots — I’d say they’re pretty washed out" and i can see the same... video is just lol
2 pics of flowers are really good, and i really hope he shaked his hand while shooting the rest of pics
The camera test would have been best done a nice sunny day. The weather in those photos looks overcast which is why it may look overblown and grey. If there's exposure adjustment then it doesn't matter. With my arc you have to adjust the exposure to Atleast -3 to stop the exposure blowing out.

The colors are washed out. And it seems that it increases ISO/noise in badly lit conditions (image of the coke bottle). I'm not that impressed.
You shouldn't expect too much from from any phone camera with less than ideal lighting. Need more reviews of the camera with different subjects and compare to the iPhone 4s and gs2.
would love 2 see an unboxing video too
Honestly, I have no idea why ppl pay so much attention to the camera. It is supposed to be just an emergency thing and not the main factor making a phone good or bad. Has everyone really stoppedmusing dedicated cameras and started using their phones as cameras for all occasions?

Have to disagree here. It seems most people seem to prefer oversaturated colors. Those pics have excellent looking color balance AND saturation from what I saw.
Here are my thoughts on the galaxy S4 camera:
Pros
1. 13 megapixel camera
2. Front and Back camera at same time
3. Some great new shooting modes like sound and shot, animated photo, etc..
4. Gallery has air-view
5. Gallery is easy to use and share photos
Cons
1. No paper artist
2. No filters from S3 (fall colors, solarize, etc)
3. Gallery does not have awesome scrolling view features from Note 2 and spiral view. EDIT: this feature is there.
4. Drama shot never works like Samsung advertises it to.
5. No Macro shot from S3 for close up shots.
Please add both pros and cons that you are finding when using the S4 camera and gallery.
Also, what features would you like to have seen added into the S4 camera and gallery

I'm getting a *lot* of blurry shots. Is there some way to turn on stabilization or something? Most of my shots come out blurry unless I hold the camera *very* still. Seems like it should do a better job of this sort of thing.
For reference, I was a technical photographer -- I aided photographers in taking better shots by using their hardware in a better way. I know a good amount about photography, but I never really cared much for smartphone photography. One thing I'll say is that I've used many smartphones before to take pictures and none really came out as naturally shaky/blurry as these. Coming from an iPhone 5 I could hold both up and take the same picture and the iPhone 5 is clear and the one from the GS4 is blurry.

I really like the camera. The shots are crips and clear when you have ample lighting. One gripe with this camera is the settings don't stick. I have set anti shake and auto night detection and they turn themselves off. I even had the camera change itself back to 9mp from 13mp. The gallery I just discovered that if you have pictures saved to the SD card and attempt to create some organization by moving them into albums the pictures get moved off of the SD card and back onto the phone internal storage. This creates a folder called "pictures" with all the albums inside as individual folders titled whatever you called the albums. You can't move this "picture" folder back to the SD card as it seems to be locked.
I'm at the beach today missing the beaches/snow filter from the S3.... another feature missing from the S4 camera

Open your gallery, select albums (top left) and it's an option there.
Another con:
Timer is disabled on most shooting modes. Sometimes I feel creative and want to dry the drama shot, and doing it by yourself is impossible. Having 10 seconds to stage the shot would be awesome.

lots of settings to work through on this camera. i don't think there can be many scenarios that the s4 camera cannot adjust for. was never much into changing the settings since a camera on a phone never had high expectation from me, but i might actually take more time to dig into and learn the options on the s4.
Has anyone figured out how to take legit drama shots?

The last good concert camera I had was the Motorola Atrix, which clearly recorded sound even at death metal shows.
Let's see how the mic on the Nexus 6p holds up to loud concert music. The low light capabilities. should also help get some good footage.

Ive got a concert coming up on the 5th so two nights. It is my first concert with the 6P and ill be bringing along my Lumia 1020 as I always do so ill be interested in comparing the two.
This is one thing i always research now when buying a phone. my current htc m8 do an excellent job in loud concerts. my old lg g2 was totally crap, that was when i started searching about good mics on phones.

If you are using your Nexus 6p as a concert camera, please share your footage.
The last good concert camera I had was the Motorola Atrix, which clearly recorded sound even at death metal shows.
Let's see how the mic on the Nexus 6p holds up to loud concert music. The low light capabilities. should also help get some good footage.

The Atrix had the best microphones. I recorded a video playing music very loud in my car and it was so clear, viewers thought I was playing it over the video and YouTube flagged the song.
This is a video I shot on my Atrix at Paganfest 2012 in Dallas.
No other phone I have had has come close to being able to record this good. Everyone elses recordings from that show sounded terrible.

Im curious about video performance. Most concerts have led backlights and my previous phones can no make out the pictures on the led board it just shows blured out lights but no details in the pictures.

I can not. since it was crappy I just deleted them on my xperia z2. But ppl in front of me had iphones and it looks pretty clear.

Same....recorded my son in his guitar concert with my G2 and it all sounded like distorted crap (it didnt help the song was LOUD to begin with, but I was hoping it would handle better than it did)
Will try the N6P next time Im at some form of concert.

Not bad at all! No distortion. Looks promising. Thanks for sharing

I took these the night I got the phone. Didn't change a setting on the camera app. Also note that some of the shots are crap, this is no way indicative of the camera as I was drinking pretty heavily that night. Anyhow, some of them are pretty nice given the crazy lighting.

I have honestly yet to see a camera phone even come close to producing noise free pictures in a concert setting, this is up there in terms of quality.

And I have no intention of blowing these up to poster size and printing them off.
Some shots from last night's black metal warfare in New Orleans. Watain and Mayhem.
