The Galaxy Note9 features just a bit better camera than iPhone SE (2022), and although they both have the same 60 frames per second video frame rates, a 12 mega-pixels back camera and the same video resolution, the Galaxy Note9 also has a bigger diafragm aperture to capture better low-light images and videos.
