DxO Mark have this morning released a major update to their DxOMark Mobile test suite for evaluating smartphone camera image quality. This new version allows DxOMark tests to cover many of the new features and technologies found in current and upcoming generations of smartphone. DxOMark’s new Mobile protocol addresses these new smartphone photo capabilities by providing:
- An all-new Zoom sub-score based on extensive testing at multiple focal lengths.
- An all-new Bokeh sub-score using a scene carefully designed to allow comparisons.
- Low-light testing down to 1 Lux.
- Motion added to the test suite for more accurate evaluation of camera performance in real-world situations.
- Expanded lab and outdoor test scenes.
With the new iPhone(s) being announced later on today, this is an interesting space to watch and learn just how good it/they stack/s up to the competition, stay tuned.
