HTC Asks If You Can Tell Which Image Was Shot With a Smartphone

8/10 for me, not bad HTC, the HTC still has the typical camera phone issues, but a lot better than phones of the past.

Agreed - for the intended purpose, they do more than is really expected. No one, even HTC I am sure, expects hobbies or pro photographers to give up their cameras for one of these. But for a person like my wife.... this is more than good enough.

Just my ever so humble opinion.

5/10 and I don't even know which ones.

9/10 - be curious if the same person/photographer took both sets.

9/10 here. But at that size it was just a guess really...

7/10

Nice little phone

Got 4/10. I'm not embarassed, though. 7/10 second time I took it, got some different photos.

I think if you really want to see how good you are, take it ten times and see what your score is out of a 100.

6/10 heh

5/10, I could only tell on high iso high clipping shots...what am i missing as common tells. Low res isnt a fair arguement, its not exactly the pepsi challenge but still cool to test

Got 7 out of 7 and then quit. For me it was the dof that gave it away or blown highlights on a couple. For average snap shots, a camera phone does just fine. I was one of the big critics of phones with cameras... But now I am glad the two have merged. For snap shot type stuff most are more than capable of doing the job.

Scratches head. How do you know without completing it?

You dont!!

Had another go tonight 10/10. Does little to convince me that the HTC is the camera for me!

I actually had a bit of a problem telling them apart!

I had some trouble telling for the same reason others did (got 4/10 and 6/10). The truth is, if you took some of my best phone shots and compared them to my worst camera shots, you'd think the phone was the camera every time, but that doesn't mean a damned thing. I didn't buy my camera because every shot was going to be better, I bought it to do the things my phone can't (and there weren't many of those shots thrown in).

Bottom-line is that whoever was shooting with the DSLR (read: HTC Mktg. Dept.) did a bad enough job that they are indeed a bit difficult to pick out.

I got 4/10 first try, 10/10 on the 2nd try but some of them are guess work.
At that resolution, you'd be hard pressed to really tell them apart.
