The Samsung Galaxy Note9 takes much clearer photos and videos than Apple iPhone 6, because it has a bigger back-facing camera sensor providing a higher image quality, a much higher 3840x2160 (4K) video resolution, a back camera with a way better 12 megapixels resolution and a much bigger diafragm aperture to capture better photos and video in poorly lited environments.
