Note that the author decides that Samsung's photos are "not fake", in the sense that they were not doctored after being taken with the phone. However, the article decisively proves that they're being heavily doctored in-camera.
Another test would be to shoot RAW + JPEG if the camera supports it. A true RAW image would reveal what the sensor is actually capturing.
> For example Apple can save ProRaw format which DOES include the postprocess magickery, but uncompressed and having more detail for post. BUT, it also provides apps with true RAW, which is true (or very close to true) raw.
Thank you for that detail. IMO, that makes "ProRAW" a really unfortunate naming decision on Apple's part. And I think you're saying that if you shoot in RAW with, say, Halide, the result will be an actual RAW (pre-demosaic) file in DNG format.
