Putting Samsung’s “fake” moon photos to the test.
After a Redditor discovered that Samsung’s 100x “space zoom” feature may rely heavily on AI to spit out super crisp photos of the moon, YouTuber Marques Brownlee recreated the experiment with a Galaxy S23 Ultra.
His findings? Quite a bit less dramatic than what we saw on Reddit. The resulting moon photo seems equally as blurry as the original — save for some added brightness and sharpness — and doesn’t appear to add any details that weren’t there before.
