iPhone SE 2, iPhone XR, and iPhone 11 in daylightlight show equally good quality photos and videos. But with good lighting, many smartphones take good pictures, the main indicator is shooting at night. Both the iPhone SE 2 and the iPhone XR do not have a night mode, which is why they lose the iPhone 11 in low light conditions. The flagship also demonstrated better selfies, front-facing video (4K) and improved slow-motion video.
Due to the 3rd generation Neural Engine (for whichmeets A13 Bionic) iPhone SE 2 for 40 thousand rubles demonstrates better than in XR, photo quality - comparable to iPhone 11 and even the pro version. True only in daylight.
