Apple improving the performance of their flagships while Samsung going backwards. The S23 Ultra did a way better job at these tests than the S24 Ultra.

You seem to not understand that the Samsung was gaming with the highest display and that's 2k, if they put it on par with the others(the Samsung FHD+ instead of the QHD) maybe it'd have been able to kill this competition!
You're really not understanding what a 2K resolution does for the processor. Games are not running at native resolution in any phone, not even on th 16 pro max. Resolutions should be similar on each phone with iOS taking a bit lead because of how most games are optimized for iOS so no, it was not 2K on S24 U.@@promiseololade5050

Anyways it's what i saw hope it will help
This entire test is so stupid and is only a measurement of thermal management differences between devices. Each device is running completely different work loads, and no performance metrics are tested at all. And this gives Pixel people some sort of cope that their Tensor cpu is really the best, when all that it actually shows is that Google has no thermal management at all and allows their phones to get ridiculously hot without throttling.
Anything is better than the 15 pro max tbh. It had poor battery life and thermals for me. I’m on a 16 pro now and even the smaller 16 pro is beating my 15 pro max in battery life even when it was new
What people fail to realise is that pixel users actually don't care about the latest games. Latest graphic settings. We enjoy the pixel for things like voice to text, reliability, accuracy, spam calls, call screening, etc. And the pixel does that better than any Android phone. It also boots up in record time from off it's fast. No bloatware. It's a fantastic smartphone with great smarts and smooth experience all around , and the assistant integration
he is weak like the hell. a downgradet exynos 2400. 2 cores removed and equiped with weaker GPU set the S24U to max battery saving = 70% CPU speed and power level to light mode what makes adittional -10% CPU performance and the snapdragon is still much faster then the tensor G4 on maximum. on all this settings the SD8 gen3 still is much faster then G4 and never get warm. tensor G4 ist simply a weak and slow trash hardware from cheap phones..... you can not slow down with all battery saving modes the S24 so much to reach the slownes of a tensor....
But the Tensor _is_ lacking compared to the other flagship chips. The reason why the Pixel is performing so well in these tests is because Google just lets their phones run hotter. You get more consistent high-end performance when you raise the throttling temperature threshold.
Just test on heavy games like genshin impact to see real performance. Both Samsung s24 ultra and iphone 15 pro max had overheating problems compared to iphone 16 pro max which has gaming phone thermal performance without any external cooling. Now cry about buying 1st gen tech
Thanks a lot for these "in depth" reviews 😅 Can you add the 9 pro "not the xl" into your comparisons, is the more compact size of the 9 pro affecting the thermal management of the phone compared to the 9 pro xl?
Apple and Google really stepped up their game in terms of thermal management. Samsung fell off this year and it's a shame because the S23 Ultra did fantastic last year. I guess the vapor cooling is just for marketing.

My s24 ultra I thought was going to be great with the enhanced vapor chamber. That thing ran hot just using UA-cam most of the time. It started out at 9 hours of screen on time for the first week, then started tanking to like 4 or 5 and stayed warm constantly. I’m kinda glad I have the 16 pro now.

Guys do not listen to this video at all. It’s been proven false many times I will explain below. Asphalt 9 caters to the specific hardware that it’s being used on. The pixel has been shown to have the weakest gaming performance compared to these other phones by a HUGE MARGIN. HUGE… The way this was tested was incorrect. He also goes on to say that it was running in a higher resolution on the pixel. This is just incorrect. When selecting the highest graphics settings on the pixel, it will automatically be lower than what it is on the other phones, despite them all running in the “max” setting. Visual fidelity, you are seeing on the pixel is lower than on the other phones. It also uses a variable resolution compared to the static resolution on the other phones. Please don’t make up, lies and try to push them off as videos unless you know what you’re talking about.
Great video, I have been waiting for this . Most manufacturers when released new phone, the update on the old phone makes it worst to make new one better. I have this problem with my note 20 ultra after s24 ultra released with the option to slow video down which note 20 ultra has the option in video editing to slow of speed video. But I realized the option is no longer there . That's scam , and just saw big performance drop on 15 pro max now which to me should be treated as scam.
The pausing probably has something to do with the new game mode. It focuses the resources of the phone on the actual game at the expense of the background apps. The new iOS 18 was mainly developed for the iPhone 16 series which would explain the poorer performance on the A17 Pro. That's very typical when you make a firmware for a specific hardware. The iOS 18 is still very new and such bugs are normal. They should be addressed in the next versions so I suggest you redo the test after 1 or 2 updates
I got a 15 pro this year and i updated it to ios 18 yesterday but i'm not noticing any performance issues but i want to know if this is the case with a heavy workload will it be fixed by 18.1 or 18.2 to get the same performance as ios 17
SOC getting powerful each year this results in accumulation of more heat that throttle CPU performance for almost half. After all this year big companies just keep adding bigger and bigger vapor chamber, i think they need to adapt redmagic idea to include "fan" + vapor chamber to prolong the activation of throttling CPU performance or at least maintain the temperature
That's very much a bad idea. The Redmagic is a gaming phone. It comes with a whole bunch of engineering compromises in order to feature a fan among a whole plethora of gaming functions both physical and software.
Its kinda weird to see how the s23u did this test pretty well more than a year ago but the s24u having issues. In my experience the s24u was all around better an way cooler so this is pretty suprising to me
Hussein, you need to bring S23 Ultra back in this mix if you still have iPhone 15 pro max in there. I mean, S23 Ultra was the undisputed king of your workload test last year so lets see how these new chips fare against the Undisputed King.
Okay but this is impressive that the 16 pro max is performing this well on ios18 which has a lot of bugs to fix and apps not being fully being optimized for it yet.
Now Samsung kids are crying after the s24 ultra failed every single point 😂thats called optimization in Apple even 13 pro max doesn’t crash that much badly😂 cry kids S 24 ultra is only king in comments in performance it is just trash and in camera it comes in worlds top27 position globally after tests its just famous for fake digital AI created moon pics😂
not really when the S24 runs with ~2 times of the performance of the pixel 9.... the test is preaty pointless tensor G4 ist a downgradet exynos 2400 with 2 removed cores and reduced clock speed. set the samsung to 70% of its performance = battery saving mode and its the same result. thats the performnce what tensor G4 is running. tensor G4 is like a snapdran 8 gen 3 in battery saving mode and its permanent for the tensor G4.... to call weak mid class hardware in any way good is confusing. take a intel celeron 2000 MHz on the other side a pentium 4000 MHZ to set a pentium 4000 MHZ to 2000 MHZ is not any sort of challange and you get near same result . to sell a celeron 2000 MHZ for the price of a pentium 400 MHZ ist the real crazy think on pixel hardware.... set your S24U to power saving CPU -40% and your S24U have still much more computing power and that is the full power setting of the pixel.....a shame in any way this hardware. snapdragon 8 gen 3 on the power saving mode set 70% CPU + power profile light use= geekbench single core 1800 multi core 5800 tensor G4 on max settings: single core 1900 multi core 4700
@ThomasNowicki-m5s I understand what you're saying, but what's the point of having a faster chip if you don't have a good cooling system or better heat control management? Samsung has to do better because even though the Pixel Pro has a slower chip, it could overheat if Google hadn't optimized the phone well.
That is a nice test to check the performance overall, but who runs their phones like this, literally nobody, so as we use single at a time, no phone will lag, so buy your favourite phone, and enjoy.
Hey, I really would love to see you do S22 Ultra (Optional) vs S23 Ultra vs S24 Ultra vs S25 Ultra (If you can wait). Would love to see S23 Ultra dominate and go up against the monstrous S25 to see if the thermals are better or worse
Can u plz do this test with an s24 ultra, one normal and one with game optimization service, game booster etc disabled? Game optimization service used to be a major performance culprit
Is it possible to do the pixel test on on the lower resolution, not full. I'm curious as to how the pixel would perform. I feel like the lower resolution is more in line with the iPhone than the higher resolution same with the Samsung
Can you please answer this question for me? Ok, iOS 18 doesn’t seem to be running that well on the iPhone currently, but how is it possible that the Google Pixel 9 Pro performs so much better than the S24 Ultra, even though the Google Tensor G4 has only half the benchmark score of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra?
The premise of the test is flawed since the iPhones are outputting more information in the screen share, whereas the Pixel and s24 are outputting lower fps, higher fps=more power usage, which hurts the iPhone elsewhere even though in a testing situation, it should not. Maybe limiting the fps of the stream or the game might provide a more objective result.
Additionally, the iPhones are also prioritizing lower temperatures, reducing sustained performance and helping it stay cool and use half as much battery.
They different Operating Systems so, I don’t have control over everything and I mentioned how each one performed in each aspects to show the priorities and trade offs then u judge if u don’t agree with my judgement

Just bought IDTR wallpaper app. Not because i even want a new wallpaper, but just to support this legend for his brilliant tech content. Well done and keep up the great in depth content. 👏 👏
Plus I actually ending up changing my wallpaper now and love it too. The customisation in the app is actually really good. 👌 Just wish Google gave a way to adjust the contrast of the built in at a glance widget on the Pixel launcher OS.
Hope you also include the S23 Ultra on tests next time, since it's gaining popularity bc of the price drop and is still pretty relevant
Next time it will probably be the s224 ultra dropping prices and gaining popularity
The performance test I've been looking forward to the most.
I know these heavy-duty performance tests don't reflect actual use case scenarios, but I think it's fun to see which phones can handle the toughest challenges.
This isn't a performance test. Absolutely no performance was measured in this test, the only thing measured was temperature. Its a thermal throttling test.
@@muyosogo watch Dame Tech IPhone 16 Pro Max vs s24 ultra performance test and go cry bout it
@@muyososorry if I’m toxic people just need to realise how much better the 16 Pro actually is to the Samsung, it’s not even close when it comes to gaming performance
@@M4-Mie Id hope that a 1 year newer phone is better. The next Samsung gonna easily match and exceed the 16 pro for gaming when it launches.
Just imagine how well next pixel will be with fully in house custom chip. Can't wait..
Again, the screen remained brighter on the Pixel, so battery should not be considered. The temperature on the Pixel is higher because ITS STILL DOING ALL THE TASKS, so of course it will get hotter and use more battery! You're not acknowledging that. I also dont appreciate giving the iPhone 16 a pass for both youtube video pauses. You would have held it against any other phone. Be fair.

I love your tests because it debunk the myth that benchmarks are the most important metrics for SoC power.
I know it's not the strongest performer on paper, but my experience with the pixel 9 pro XL has been the best experience I've ever had with a smartphone. And I swap a lot 😅
This test is pointless. Mobile gaming is the same on all. I have iphone and samsung fold 6 the iphone is a little better but overtime they feel the same speed is the same and i get better games on my samsung. So overall android is better. Iphone can hold its own still. Pixel and samsung are overall way better
I remember when S23 Ultra passed this test easily. My S24 Ultra is warm to the touch all the time thats why i installed Galaxy Guardians to tweak temperature treshold to prevent brightness from dimming even thou its hot
I think this proves something, which is that any Android system that modifies the stock Android system will fail to make the phone give strong performance.

Apple improving the performance of their flagships while Samsung going backwards. The S23 Ultra did a way better job at these tests than the S24 Ultra.
I made the right choice by buying the 16 Pro Max instead of the S24 Ultra this year. And I'm very content with keeping the S23 Ultra as my current android flagship.
You seem to not understand that the Samsung was gaming with the highest display and that's 2k, if they put it on par with the others(the Samsung FHD+ instead of the QHD) maybe it'd have been able to kill this competition!
You're really not understanding what a 2K resolution does for the processor. Games are not running at native resolution in any phone, not even on th 16 pro max. Resolutions should be similar on each phone with iOS taking a bit lead because of how most games are optimized for iOS so no, it was not 2K on S24 U.@@promiseololade5050

I want to mention something I'm a pixel fan currently rocking a pixel Device but can't be baised right.. both the iphones were running high graphics compared to pixel and Samsung.. let me explain how resolution were similar 1080p but you'll notice shadow in iphones but not present in pixels and samsungs idk if it's something related to the API cuz iphone is using metal and in android it's openGL instead pf vulcan that gives better gaming performance and consistency... Anyways it's what i saw hope it will help
This entire test is so stupid and is only a measurement of thermal management differences between devices. Each device is running completely different work loads, and no performance metrics are tested at all. And this gives Pixel people some sort of cope that their Tensor cpu is really the best, when all that it actually shows is that Google has no thermal management at all and allows their phones to get ridiculously hot without throttling.
Very impressed with the 16PM and 9PXL. Seems like their thermals have been improved

What people fail to realise is that pixel users actually don't care about the latest games. Latest graphic settings. We enjoy the pixel for things like voice to text, reliability, accuracy, spam calls, call screening, etc. And the pixel does that better than any Android phone. It also boots up in record time from off it's fast. No bloatware. It's a fantastic smartphone with great smarts and smooth experience all around , and the assistant integration

set the S24U to max battery saving = 70% CPU speed and power level to light mode what makes adittional -10% CPU performance and the snapdragon is still much faster then the tensor G4 on maximum.

But the Tensor _is_ lacking compared to the other flagship chips. The reason why the Pixel is performing so well in these tests is because Google just lets their phones run hotter. You get more consistent high-end performance when you raise the throttling temperature threshold.
I love you thx for the tests ✌🏽

@@unknown2723 the S24 had the issue from launch, it’s hardware related. The 15 Pro max only started experiencing this after the last software update.
Thanks a lot for these "in depth" reviews 😅
Can you add the 9 pro "not the xl" into your comparisons, is the more compact size of the 9 pro affecting the thermal management of the phone compared to the 9 pro xl?
Apple and Google really stepped up their game in terms of thermal management. Samsung fell off this year and it's a shame because the S23 Ultra did fantastic last year. I guess the vapor cooling is just for marketing.
We want the same test but with the S23 ultra to see how its doing! As it completed this test smoothly back then.

A heavy load is multiple windows running in parallel, not wasteful games that are better on dedicated consoles. S24 Ultra is productivity/business phone with S-pen & non glare screen, not for games

I really appreciate your vid, as they are always so relevant to day to day use. Would be great to see a screen brightness test outdoors as I feel we get cheated with these phone because they dim so quickly!
Guys do not listen to this video at all. It’s been proven false many times I will explain below.
Asphalt 9 caters to the specific hardware that it’s being used on. The pixel has been shown to have the weakest gaming performance compared to these other phones by a HUGE MARGIN. HUGE… The way this was tested was incorrect. He also goes on to say that it was running in a higher resolution on the pixel. This is just incorrect.
When selecting the highest graphics settings on the pixel, it will automatically be lower than what it is on the other phones, despite them all running in the “max” setting. Visual fidelity, you are seeing on the pixel is lower than on the other phones. It also uses a variable resolution compared to the static resolution on the other phones.
Please don’t make up, lies and try to push them off as videos unless you know what you’re talking about.
Thanks for the video. Most people just see the numbers ,not the real life performance.
How do the pixel and iPhone draw? The iPhone had 2 yellows and 4 greens while the Pixel had 2 reds a yellow and only three greens
Great video, I have been waiting for this . Most manufacturers when released new phone, the update on the old phone makes it worst to make new one better. I have this problem with my note 20 ultra after s24 ultra released with the option to slow video down which note 20 ultra has the option in video editing to slow of speed video. But I realized the option is no longer there . That's scam , and just saw big performance drop on 15 pro max now which to me should be treated as scam.
The pausing probably has something to do with the new game mode. It focuses the resources of the phone on the actual game at the expense of the background apps. The new iOS 18 was mainly developed for the iPhone 16 series which would explain the poorer performance on the A17 Pro. That's very typical when you make a firmware for a specific hardware. The iOS 18 is still very new and such bugs are normal. They should be addressed in the next versions so I suggest you redo the test after 1 or 2 updates
Seems like we have an Apple employee in the comments section.
@@kennetha6594 seems like we have a samsung fanboy in the comments
I got a 15 pro this year and i updated it to ios 18 yesterday but i'm not noticing any performance issues but i want to know if this is the case with a heavy workload will it be fixed by 18.1 or 18.2 to get the same performance as ios 17
SOC getting powerful each year this results in accumulation of more heat that throttle CPU performance for almost half. After all this year big companies just keep adding bigger and bigger vapor chamber, i think they need to adapt redmagic idea to include "fan" + vapor chamber to prolong the activation of throttling CPU performance or at least maintain the temperature
That's very much a bad idea. The Redmagic is a gaming phone. It comes with a whole bunch of engineering compromises in order to feature a fan among a whole plethora of gaming functions both physical and software.
Thanks for the video my friend I am really enjoying my Pixel 9 Pro XL
Great video! Watching on my 15 Pro Max
Its kinda weird to see how the s23u did this test pretty well more than a year ago but the s24u having issues. In my experience the s24u was all around better an way cooler so this is pretty suprising to me
One suggestion. Please use same settings for all phones not the maximum like resolution
Hussein, you need to bring S23 Ultra back in this mix if you still have iPhone 15 pro max in there. I mean, S23 Ultra was the undisputed king of your workload test last year so lets see how these new chips fare against the Undisputed King.
Okay but this is impressive that the 16 pro max is performing this well on ios18 which has a lot of bugs to fix and apps not being fully being optimized for it yet.
Now Samsung kids are crying after the s24 ultra failed every single point 😂thats called optimization in Apple even 13 pro max doesn’t crash that much badly😂 cry kids S 24 ultra is only king in comments in performance it is just trash and in camera it comes in worlds top27 position globally after tests its just famous for fake digital AI created moon pics😂

Great video! I think you should test the OnePlus 12 as well. I am an S24 Ultra owner, and it is a shame that the Pixel 9 Pro XL is outperforming it.
not really when the S24 runs with ~2 times of the performance of the pixel 9....
the test is preaty pointless tensor G4 ist a downgradet exynos 2400 with 2 removed cores and reduced clock speed.
set the samsung to 70% of its performance = battery saving mode and its the same result.
thats the performnce what tensor G4 is running.
tensor G4 is like a snapdran 8 gen 3 in battery saving mode and its permanent for the tensor G4....
to call weak mid class hardware in any way good is confusing.
take a intel celeron 2000 MHz
on the other side a pentium 4000 MHZ
to set a pentium 4000 MHZ to 2000 MHZ is not any sort of challange and you get near same result .
to sell a celeron 2000 MHZ for the price of a pentium 400 MHZ ist the real crazy think on pixel hardware....
set your S24U to power saving CPU -40% and your S24U have still much more computing power and that is the full power setting of the pixel.....a shame in any way this hardware.
snapdragon 8 gen 3 on the power saving mode set 70% CPU + power profile light use=

@@ThomasNowicki-m5s Cope hard!!!!!
@ThomasNowicki-m5s I understand what you're saying, but what's the point of having a faster chip if you don't have a good cooling system or better heat control management? Samsung has to do better because even though the Pixel Pro has a slower chip, it could overheat if Google hadn't optimized the phone well.
Can't u see that ip 16 pro outperforming both LOL.
Sure, as expected, but watch for the next Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 or whatever it will be called.
Do the results change if we change the performance profile from light to standard on S24U ?
That is a nice test to check the performance overall, but who runs their phones like this, literally nobody, so as we use single at a time, no phone will lag, so buy your favourite phone, and enjoy.
Hope next year the Pixel10 series with the TSMC made Tensor5 would fight neck to neck with any flagship of that time.
Love your test the chips didn't mean anything to real use everyday.
The only video that satisfies my craving for tech news. Apple's so-called marketing failed just by a single video like this.
Hey, I really would love to see you do S22 Ultra (Optional) vs S23 Ultra vs S24 Ultra vs S25 Ultra (If you can wait). Would love to see S23 Ultra dominate and go up against the monstrous S25 to see if the thermals are better or worse

Is it possible to do the pixel test on on the lower resolution, not full. I'm curious as to how the pixel would perform. I feel like the lower resolution is more in line with the iPhone than the higher resolution same with the Samsung
I was not planning to change my S24U and keep it for years, but maybe I'll trade it in for the S25U.
Can you please answer this question for me? Ok, iOS 18 doesn’t seem to be running that well on the iPhone currently, but how is it possible that the Google Pixel 9 Pro performs so much better than the S24 Ultra, even though the Google Tensor G4 has only half the benchmark score of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra?
software optimization. better android (google owns android)
having owned both 15p max and s24u this year. i must say the s24u display dims very fast when i am outside playing pokemon go.

One ui 5.1 with samsung s23 ultra is super still 🔥 👌
I never see this one ui 5.1 performance on any device
Why not add a Pixel 8 Pro?
The premise of the test is flawed since the iPhones are outputting more information in the screen share, whereas the Pixel and s24 are outputting lower fps, higher fps=more power usage, which hurts the iPhone elsewhere even though in a testing situation, it should not. Maybe limiting the fps of the stream or the game might provide a more objective result.
Additionally, the iPhones are also prioritizing lower temperatures, reducing sustained performance and helping it stay cool and use half as much battery.
They different Operating Systems so, I don’t have control over everything and I mentioned how each one performed in each aspects to show the priorities and trade offs then u judge if u don’t agree with my judgement
So you’re telling us that S24 ultra failed. ?!? Can’t believe that, S24 it’s even better then Ihpone 16
not failed only a temp warning pops up.
the S24 have a low temp setting looks in teh video like ~45° the pixel is set to ~50°C.
