Daylight

The Motorola Edge 50 Pro and the Realme GT 6T both produce comparable images in daylight, at least in terms of detailing. However, the Motorola smartphone tends to favour colder tones, while the GT 6T prefers warmer tones. This leads to more prominent shadows and vibrant colours on the Edge 50 Pro compared to its counterpart. Although the brighter results might make the Realme GT 6T images more appealing, the Motorola Edge 50 Pro provides better dynamic range.

Winner: Tie

Ultrawide

The wide-angle image captured by the Motorola Edge 50 Pro is visibly less grainy than the one taken by Realme GT 6T. The Edge 50 Pro’s wide-angle lens also handles shadows and contrast better than the Realme GT 6T’s. This could be attributed to the bigger 12MP ultrawide lens on the Motorola smartphone, which also provides a wider field of view (FoV) than the Realme GT 6T’s 8MP lens.

Winner: Motorola Edge 50 Pro

Portraits

The Motorola Edge 50 Pro wins this round hands-down, thanks to its superior facial detailing and edge detection. The Realme GT 6T isn’t as precise in separating the background from the foreground, often showing some warping around the edges of the subject. Additionally, the Realme GT 6T tends to smooth out facial details, resulting in a loss of clarity. When it comes to skin tones, neither smartphone performs perfectly, but due to the brighter results, one might prefer the Realme GT 6T’s portraits.

Winner: Motorola Edge 50 Pro

Selfie

While the Realme GT 6T’s 32MP selfie camera produces brighter results that might appear more appealing, the facial detailing is rather underwhelming. The Motorola Edge 50 Pro performs better in this regard with its 50MP selfie snapper, capturing images with intricate details and more accurate skin tones.

Winner: Motorola Edge 50 Pro

Lowlight

The brighter and warmer tones of the Realme GT 6T image might make it a preferable choice for many in low-light environments. Additionally, the colours, even though boosted, are more accurate on the Realme smartphone than its counterpart. However, if you are after dynamic range, then the Motorola Edge 50 Pro might be a better choice. The smartphone’s colder tones completely alter the complexion of the image, but the result is sharper than the Realme GT 6T.

Winner: Realme GT 6T

Night mode

Both smartphones could benefit from better detailing in night mode, but in terms of overall appeal, the Motorola Edge 50 Pro takes the lead. It captures more light, resulting in brighter and more visually appealing images. However, the Realme GT 6T delivers more accurate colours compared to the Motorola smartphone.

Winner: Motorola Edge 50 Pro

Verdict

This concludes our comparison of the Realme GT 6T and the Motorola Edge 50 Pro cameras. Both smartphones have their strengths and weaknesses, so your choice depends on your preferences. For brighter, more Instagram-ready images, the Realme GT 6T is the clear choice. However, if you prefer more dramatic images with greater dynamic range and vibrancy, the Motorola Edge 50 Pro is the better option. Additionally, the Motorola handset offers versatility with its 3x optical zoom telephoto camera and a 12MP ultrawide lens that also functions as a macro shooter.
