Xperia XA1 takes much better photographs and videos than Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not recommended for low light captures, and they both have the same 1920x1080 (Full HD) video definition and the same video frame rate, the Xperia XA1 also counts with a much more mega-pixels back-facing camera and a bigger back-facing camera sensor taking better quality videos and photographs.
