Table of contents:
Are you a regular at selfies and want to look good both day and night? It is true that in daylight hours it is very easy to take a good self-portrait, especially if you have a mobile that has a proper front camera. The problem comes with the dark. At that moment taking a photo of ourselves can be an odyssey. If you are thinking of buying a new terminal, you may be interested in purchasing one with a front flash. Or with a high resolution and aperture so your night selfies have greater definition and low noise. Pay close attention because we recommend the best mobiles to take selfies at night.
Moto G5 Plus
If you are looking for a phone that takes good selfies at night, the Moto G5 Plus is a good option. The resolution of the front camera is 5 megapixels, but it has a wide-angle lens and f / 2.2 aperture. Although it does not have an LED flash, it is possible to take advantage of the illumination of the screen to capture images in moments when there is not enough light. This model also boasts a main camera. It has a 12-megapixel camera with f / 1.7 aperture, dual-phase focus, and 4K 30 fps video recording. Among other features we find a 5.2 AMOLED screen with Full HD resolution, Snapdragon 625 processor, 3 GB of RAM or a 3,000 mAh battery. This phone is governed by Android 7.
Samsung Galaxy S8
Samsung has significantly improved the front camera of its flagship this year. The Samsung Galaxy S8 arrives with an 8 megapixel secondary sensor instead of 5, which also has an f / 1.7 aperture, LED flash and automatic HDR. It is clear that these months have been very important in the rise of front cameras, and the Galaxy S8 could not ignore this trend. For now we have not carried out tests with this mobile, but we hope soon to have the opportunity and check more closely how this sensor behaves.
The Samsung Galaxy S8 also has a 5.8-inch Super AMOLED screen with resolution (1,440 x 2,960). Its processor is an Exynos 8895 (eight cores 4 at 2.3 GHz and 4 at 1.7 GHz), accompanied by 4 GB of RAM. The main camera has a resolution of 12 megapixels and an aperture f / 1.7 and LED flash. Among some of its outstanding functions we can mention a fingerprint reader, iris scanner, facial recognition (Bixby) or water resistance (IP68). The battery of the Galaxy S8 has a capacity of 3,000 mAh with fast charging system and wireless charging.
Huawei Y6 2017
Last May, Huawei announced the Huawei Y6 2017, a terminal with which it is possible to take good selfies at night or also during the day. This model includes a 5 megapixel sensor with an 84º lens. What does this mean? Basically we can achieve a higher quality when it comes to taking self-portraits. When the light falls there won't be too many problems, the Y6 2017 is ready to take night selfies thanks to its additional flash. Taking into account that it is an entry-level mobile, this feature is usually somewhat unusual.
For the rest, if we turn it around, the Huawei Y6 2017 has a 13-megapixel main camera with dual-tone flash. This sensor is also capable of recording video with FullHD resolution and at 30 frames per second. The mobile has a 5-inch screen with 1,280 x 720 pixel resolution (294 dpi) or a 1.4 GHz MediaTek MT6737T processor accompanied by 2 GB of RAM.
Sony Xperia XZ Premium
The Sony Xperia XZ Premium is another of the devices that will not let your selfies at night look bad. It has a 13 megapixel sensor with a size of 1 / 3.06 inches each. Its lens is wide-angle 22 millimeters and has an aperture of f / 2.0. This will help to make selfies sharper and more defined, both for when we are alone or in a group. On the back we can find a 19 megapixel sensor with 5-axis stabilizer, predictive capture, super slow motion function and the ability to record in 4k.
The screen of this mobile is 4.5, with 4K resolution of 3840í — 2160 pixels, which is not bad to see us while we capture the selfie. It also includes a 2.5 GHz octa-core processor with 1.9 GB RAM and a 3,230 mAh battery with fast charging.
Samsung Galaxy A5 2017
And we cannot talk about the mobiles with the best possibilities of taking selfies at night without mentioning the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017. This model has a secondary sensor with a 16 megapixel resolution with f / 1.9 aperture. During the tests we carried out, the quality of the selfies (day and night) left us with a good taste in our mouths. And, although it is true that we miss the LED flash, we have the possibility of using the brightness of the screen itself as a makeshift flash. As is normal in these cases, we also have a beauty mode and a large number of filters to improve the result of our selfies.
The Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 does not disappoint in the rest of the features either. Its main camera is also 16 megapixels ( in this case with LED Flash). It also has a 5.2-inch Full HD screen and a 1.9 GHz octa-core processor with 3 GB of RAM. It also includes a fingerprint reader, USB Type-C port and 3,000 mAh battery with fast charging system.
At the design level, it follows the line of other smartphones from the company, with metal on the sides and glass on both the back and the front. No need to worry because it is completely waterproof. We can even take selfies underwater.
