Both phones were attached to the passenger side window using suction mounts, and the iPhone’s was even a little more wobbly than the one used for the Zenfone 10.įor the test, I put the car’s suspension into its firmest setting and drove along one of the U.K.’s many bumpy back roads, so it would really test them out.

The Apple iPhone 14 Pro doesn’t specifically mention any stabilization systems for its camera outside of OIS and EIS, so it could be at a disadvantage in an in-car test. Battling the iPhone 14 Pro Andy Boxall/Digital Trends They all represent formidable opponents of the Zenfone. The iPhone’s OIS is excellent, and Samsung has its own Super Steady mode to combat excessive movement when shooting video. How has the second generation changed the Zenfone’s camera? I compared it to the GoPro Hero 11 Black, but I also recorded video using it alongside the Apple iPhone 14 Pro and the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra - two of the best camera phones you can buy. The Zenfone 10’s camera has an updated gimbal system compared to the Zenfone 9, which while decent, wasn’t all that much more capable than a good OIS system. For the most part, I use it to shoot in-car videos. I’d previously only used a GoPro Hero5 Session when it was new, and the experience is so much better now. I’m no GoPro expert, but since purchasing the Hero 11 Black, I’ve enjoyed experimenting with it and have been impressed with how the app has improved too. Testing the Zenfone 10 against other cameras Andy Boxall/Digital Trends When you use the camera, an icon appears in the viewfinder showing you how the gimbal is reacting to movement and if you exceed its ability. There are several long exposure features, such as Light and Star Trails, which also benefit from the gimbal. In the app, you can choose between the Adaptive stabilization to shoot at up to 8K resolution, or HyperSteady mode which maxes out at Full HD. Finally, Asus says its fast autofocus, along with various algorithms related to the EIS, also helps with keeping video steady. It’s joined by Adaptive EIS, or electronic image stabilization, which monitors movement and dynamically adjusts the field of view when it notices too much wobble, meaning it will zoom in and out to crop the image to maintain steadiness.
