Samsung has introduced the next generation of its flagship smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. The device is positioned as an evolution of its predecessor, bringing a series of refinements rather than a complete redesign. While the hardware updates remain relatively limited, Samsung highlights improvements in software processing and image optimization. At DXOMARK, the smartphone […]

Image stabilization is key to capturing sharp photos and smooth videos, especially in low light or handheld conditions. Modern devices rely on several stabilization technologies: Each system has its strengths and limitations, and its performance can vary greatly depending on the situation. While the CIPA DC-X011 standard defines how photo stabilization should be evaluated for […]

Accurately evaluating image stabilization requires reproducing how people truly use and therefore shake their devices. At DXOMARK, this process begins with capturing real-world user motions using a professional-grade orientation sensor that fuses data from the gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetometer. Using internal processing, these signals provide a stable, accurate, and continuous estimation of the device’s angular […]

Measuring how well a camera system compensates for hand shake is more complex than it looks. The Camera & Imaging Products Association (CIPA) in Japan has proposed and developed a standard to ensure objective and repeatable testing, the CIPA DC-X011. The primary purpose of the CIPA DC-X011 specification is to define measurement methods for evaluating image stabilization performance […]
