![]() It's going to be pretty hard to determine which one is better in standard daily usage. It's measurably faster in single and multi-core workloads.Īt the end of the day, though, the two devices are good enough to run smoothly pretty much everything you find on their respective app stores. However, pure CPU-bound tests show the Bionic A16's superiority, despite its hexa-core configuration. The new Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 shows superior GPU performance and also takes the lead in combined scenarios like AnTuTu 9. A custom Apple GPU with 5 cores is used for graphics rendering. The A16 Bionic chipset has a more conventional 2+4 CPU configuration that consists of 2x3.46 GHz Everest + 4x2.02 GHz Sawtooth cores. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 has an unusual 1+2+2+3 CPU configuration (1x3.36 GHz Cortex-X3 & 2x2.8 GHz Cortex-A715 & 2x2.8 GHz Cortex-A710 & 3x2.0 GHz Cortex-A510) with an Adreno 740 GPU taking care of the GPU-intensive tasks. The Galaxy S23 Ultra has the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 tailored for Galaxy smartphones, while the 14 Pro Max uses Apple's custom A16 Bionic chip. The two smartphones run on entirely different chipsets, even if they are both built using a similarly power-efficient 4nm manufacturing node. ![]() The iPhone 14 Pro Max, on the other hand, provides a bit extra bass but muffles the vocals and makes everything sound deeper. Vocals are clearer and tracks sound a tad flatter, catering to people who are more critical of sound setups. Still, we find the Galaxy S23 Ultra a bit better-sounding. You will hardly find any significant difference as the two handsets offer a great listening experience - and honestly, these are among the best speakers you can get on a phone. Speaker testīoth devices sport a pair of stereo loudspeakers each, and they are pretty close when it comes to overall quality and loudness. The 30-minute charge test puts them a bit closer together, with the S23 Ultra getting 68% of the juice back while the Pro Max restored only 48% of its charge back. The Galaxy S23 Ultra comes out on top with a big lead over its rival, reaching a full charge in just under an hour, while the 14 Pro Max tops off its cell in a little less than two hours. The Galaxy S23 Ultra can go up to 45W on Power Delivery if you pair it with the appropriate charger, while the 14 Pro Max caps at 27W (unofficial number), but your mileage will vary based on the charger you use. To be frank, neither of the two phones is particularly fast when it comes to charging, especially when you consider the vast majority of Android phones that came out in the last two years or so. Still, it's a step behind the 14 Pro Max when it comes to video playback and browsing runtimes. That's mostly due to the bigger 5,000 mAh cell. Apple achieves this through numerous hardware and software optimizations, squeezing impressive screen-on runtimes out of the rather small 4,323 mAh battery.Īlternatively, the Galaxy S23 Ultra posts a slightly better overall score due to its longer standby and phone call runtimes. Battery lifeĮven though the iPhone 14 Pro Max has a considerably smaller battery pack, the phone demonstrates exceptional endurance. What's important is that in both cases, you get a sufficiently bright display providing an excellent outdoor viewing experience. Also, these numbers don't mean the iPhone will be some 40% brighter that's not how nits work. Yes, the iPhone may look a bit better under direct sunlight as it can go up to 1,760 nits, but the S23 Ultra's 1,274 nits are quite respectable too. The vast majority of users will get a similar visual experience on either phone. It also tops the S23 Ultra's HDR video standard with Dolby Vision, whereas the Galaxy "settles" for HDR10+.Ĭolor accuracy of both screens is superb as long as you choose the right color mode. ![]() The Pro Max boasts considerably higher brightness in both modes - manual and auto. When it comes to the display hardware, Samsung's phone offers higher resolution, a larger diagonal and is curved to the sides, allowing for a more comfortable grip and gesture execution. ![]()
