Which is a more accurate representation of yourself? Mirror or Camera?

Whenever I look into a mirror I like what I see very much, but when ever I take a picture of myself using my IPhone 6 camera it comes out looking weird and stuff. Is it just the camera or is that how I actually look?

They both work except that each one shows a you from a different perspective

If you are taking a selfie with the camera held too close to your face (ie at arm's length), then the wide angle lens will cause facial distortion - wide forehead, big nose, bulging eyes and a fatter face.

To take a decent self portrait, you need to be several feet away from the camera, so use the self timer or get someone else to take it.

Camera lenses (especially those in smartfones) distort perspective and give a false image.
The mirror is better.
BTW congratulations of being the one millionth person to ask this question ;-)

Nearly all cameras create optical distortion and the relatively unsophisticated phone cameras are some of the worst, particularly when shooting up close. So, to answer your question, the mirror is more accurate, although the image is reversed.

The other problem with cameras is that they only capture how you look at a moment that is only a fraction of second long, which is not how you look most of the time. When you look in a mirror, you seeing a composite of yourself, not one fraction of a second when you might not be your natural self.

Gawd help us…

This is what has to be the one thousandth time this inane question has been asked here.

… Sigh…

Camera

Stop using a camera then and submit a mirror for your yearbook, CV's, driver's license and passport.
