The Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S captures much better videos and photos than Moto G Power, because although it has a smaller camera aperture, and they both have the same video frame rates and the same 3840x2160 (4K) video definition, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S also counts with a lot bigger sensor providing a much better image quality and a much better 48 MP resolution camera in the back.
