One of Samsung’s most powerful smartphones to date is the just-released Galaxy S23 Ultra from South Korea. The smartphone has Samsung’s Dynamic 2X AMOLED display, a brand-new camera sensor, and one of the most potent CPUs available today. The base model of the iPhone 14 Pro Max is available for Rs 2,39,900, but the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra starts at Rs 1,24,999. Here is a full comparison of the two high-end smartphones from Apple and Samsung.
The Display
The Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max and the Galaxy S23 Ultra are significantly unlike in terms of style and display. The iPhone 14 Pro Max sports a flat display and curves around the edges, in contrast to the Galaxy S23 Ultra’s curved display and boxy form.
The iPhone 14 Pro Max has a 6.7-inch XDR OLED screen, whereas the Galaxy S23 Ultra has a 6.8-inch AMOLED screen. The LTPO screens on the two phones can refresh at rates between 1Hz and 120Hz. When compared to the iPhone 14 Pro Max, the Galaxy S23 Ultra has a somewhat better pixel density. It also has a greater screen-to-body ratio and a smaller Infinity O notch than Apple’s Dynamic Island.
The iPhone 14 Pro Max has Ceramic Shield and is IP68 certified, which provides dust and water resistance, while the Galaxy S23 Ultra’s glass back panel and display are covered by Corning’s Gorilla Glass Victus 2. (up to 1.5 metres for 30 minutes on Galaxy S23 Ultra and up to 6 metres on iPhone 14 Pro Max). The Galaxy S23 Ultra also includes an integrated S-Pen.
Performance
The recently released Galaxy S23 Ultra includes 12GB of RAM and up to 1TB of UFS 4.0 internal storage. It is powered by a modified version of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 CPU. The iPhone 14 Pro Max, on the other hand, has an internal A16 Bionic processor and provides up to 1TB of NVMe storage.
According to the Geekbench 5 results, Apple’s most recent chipset triumphs when it comes to CPU performance by a comparable margin. When it comes to the GPU, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 performs better than the A16 Bionic in tests like AnTuTu.
Camera
The camera systems of the Galaxy S23 Ultra and iPhone 14 Pro Max both receive some significant upgrades. While the Galaxy S23 Ultra has Samsung’s 200MP ISOCELL HP2 sensor together with a 12MP ultra-wide camera and two 10MP telephoto lenses, enabling 3x and 10x optical zoom, the iPhone 14 Pro Max has a triple camera arrangement with a 48MP primary sensor, a 12MP telephoto lens, and a 12MP ultra-wide sensor.
Battery
Apple withheld the iPhone 14 Pro Max’s battery size, however, it most likely contains a 4,323mAh battery. The Galaxy S23 Ultra, on the other hand, has a 5,000mAh battery and enables 45W rapid charging. Both phones should last all day, but you should wait for our complete review to learn more about the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra’s actual battery life.
