Pixel 6 Pro vs. Galaxy S21: 20x Zoom
For people who want an even longer zoom, the Pixel 6 Pro is able to combine its 4x optical zoom with Google’s Super Res Zoom processing to provide a hybrid zoom of up to 20x. However, there’s a limit to how far you can magnify an image (even with fancy computational photography algorithms), and when compared to the Galaxy S21 Ultra, which features a 10x optical plus digital zoom, you can see that in terms of pure reach, the S21 Ultra still offers the longest and highest quality zoom you can get on pretty much any phone today. It’s close, but this time Samsung takes the win.
