If u are going to buy it, do it fast because there are a lot of offers, 512gb version is it at the same price of 256gb, u can receive Galaxy Buds 3 free
If u can be a little patient I suggest waiting for the S26 we may be seeing a finally a battery charging and capacity bump. And the one ui 8 also support new shader type that'll help improve animation and fluidity. At least based on leaks. Seams android 16 way too close.
i've been saying that and i own the 16 pro max. Apple is holding on the 120hz i think they really are giving us 80hz when we scroll to save battery life and if they are that is messed up.
This is what i was talking about when people complained about the 12gb ram comparing it to the one plus, it's all about optimization, look how the Samsung is blazing fast! One plus wouldn't dare compete against the iPhone like this. That subway surfers loading was literally blink of an eye.😅
12 gb ram is still embrassing. I run virtual machines and samsung dex on my phone, and I can tell you, running desktop Firefox you do run out of ram quickly.
Its polarizing to see side by side how scrolling is handled between the two OS's. I use a Galaxy most often but have an iPhone as well. When i have to shift between the two, iOS's forced slow scrolling is shocking after fast scrolling on basically any Android platofrm.
@@zerotofifty depends what you call an "issue". I traded my S24 for a 14 Pro Max (second-hand) and the scrolling in iOS is so smooth that it's actually slow :D the S24 gave you a lightning speed, you flick your finger upwards or downwards and you can go like several weeks ago (for example scrolling through you call list), it's like a rocket. The iPhone just scrolls beautifully and slowly and lets you "enjoy" the view :D

OnePlus 13 and iPhone 16 Pro Max entered the chat, your height the phone be literally one or two seconds quicker at opening apps? You have issues if that’s all you care about.
Do smart phones still sell well? My last two phones were a OnePlus 6 and tab iPhone 6+, currently on the Pixel 7. Seriously I get 5-6 years out of a phone and I tend to only upgrade when they're more problematic not to, like support and battery life.
Honestly, I knew this would happen and yes, this is coming from an iPhone guy. My iPhone 16 Pro Max is fluid in fast but it seems like from the iPhone 14 Pro Max on up Apple lost it shine in the last two years has definitely shown. Meanwhile, in that time, Samsung has done a better job of optimizing its phones while giving a better software experience and software support system. From what I seen the snapdragon eight elite was already a beast by itself, but if I’m not mistaken, I think Samsung even better optimized it for their phone plus put a better vapor chamber than most of the other phones that have that chip in it. The only thing I’ve yet to seen is a video rendering Speedtest, but even if iPhone manages to take that Samsung still one and all the important things for day-to-day use speed wise. If I had to pinpoint where I saw it, I’ll turn around for Samsung It was typically or generally around the S23 ultra. I don’t think I’ll switch because I’m so tired into the Apple ecosystem and maybe that was one of the smartest things Apple ever did but no denying that Samsung made a beast phone. They no longer has to look in the shadow of Apple or hasn’t in the last couple years.
@ lol I thought about it. The problem is I just have so much invested in that. However I thought about getting that phone as a second line. Still undecided, but I know this day has been a long time coming.
In the App test, they also turn on faster, quicker animations, and also move along the software quicker, on top of that a better heat dissipation, more ram, and better multi-core and GPU benchmarks, it's in the Lead as of now!
I cannot wait to upgrade from my 14 pro max to the s25 ultra. So sick of how slow the iPhone animations are. Iphones feel so incredibly slow, not because of the hardware, but because the software is more worried about “looking cool” than being fast and snappy. I want a fast phone that I am not waiting on half the time.

I had the 14 pro max and upgraded to the base s24. Ugh i regret it so much. I have to charge my phone twice at work which is 10 hr shift. I have many nitpicks with the phone. My aod randomly just turns off in my settings. Idk lots of weird issues..
It’s 2025 and we’re still doing “App Race” style speed tests? Considering that both iOS & Android optimize RAM usage based on your specific usage habits and keep commonly used Apps running it makes no sense to just randomly launch 10+ Apps in a row as some kind of test. In the real world people randomly jump from App to App, often based on external influences (notifications for message or emails, for example).
Genuine question: what the hell do you use split screen on a 6” phone for? I can’t think of a real use case where I would need two apps at the same time…
It's so useful i use this feature on my Android all the time. Using UA-cam and browser together for studies or social media apps for entertainment..it has so many possibilities and it's addictive
On My A55 , I use split screen alot when I'm watching UA-cam Podcasts or interview but then I gotta respond to my Babe , Then Split screen helps😅😂, and when I'm On Twitter and wanna listen to UA-cam Music or Want to hear an audio without watching . Simple bro
Simple Calculator and what you need calculated Staying on twitter or any other app when replying to a text on whatsapp General comparisons between content from different apps is made easier Switching to split screen can be made easier with one handed mode on Goodlock
@aliahsan5573 I agree. Once you are used to it you get to appreciate the feature. Quick trick if you're not aware try enabling a shortcut using Goodlock one handed mode. Works like a charm
Exactly, so many uses. A calculator and a source of numbers... When I'm away from home, I've even used split screen for class work... Teams and notes app with S-pen
Please Nick,could you answer my curiosity about the 24 s pen functionality on the s25 ultra.It is possible to use the s24 ultra's s pen on the s25 ultra?
It’s a nice comparison and see Samsung catching up iPhone in the area of smooth animation and performance but at the end it simply a matter of preference👌🏾. Personally i love iPhone’s user experience.
You should start making it a boot up and Home Screen test. Whichever switches on first is one thing but I wanna know which one can switch on and load the home screen first
as i always say when it comes to flagship speed tests, the results dont matter anymore. Like at the end of the day, no one cares if their device opens an app 0.1 seconds faster than the other phone. All that people care about is a reliable device capable of doing any task they need and that would last for as long as possible
Buying anything above 1000 dollars must be the fastest and top notch no one cares about daily tasks because its a FLAGSHIP it must overtake everything in front of it
People cared when iphones were faster, now fanboys are crying they don't care because their beloved iphones are now slow..😂 now iphones are slower and with less features
Very nice video, Nick. I enjoyed it as always. I know you put in tons of work making these videos for us, and I appreciate that. But as you have even said, Nick, Samsung is obviously faster, whereas Apple, in my opinion, is slower but more polished.
I was always waiting for this i always wanted Samsung to win after all this years seeing apple win and now Samsung just crushing finally android winning 🥳
iPhone being faster than a Samsung "Samsung is still better" Samsung (finally) being faster than iPhones, "See? Look how FAST it is, best phone ever!" Fanboys confuse me.
Past several years samsung has opened up all these apps way quicker than iphone, even in app options samsung always opens them quicker. Easy to see in all his past videos as well. Same was the case with s24 and s23 series and so on. GGs to apple
That Gemini closing animation is fluctuating and always their, I think they should make the animation to be stable even while doing multitasking by adding AI over cpu to stabilize the performance for better stability ❤
You're the first one that I know slowing down the animation, on all my Androids I set them to 0.5x but on the S25U that's coming I'll keep them original they're so smooooth
Whoever said “Samsung is faster” in this thread is 10x more clueless than any Apple Fan Boy…the word you’re looking for is Qualcomm since Samsung isn’t capable of creating its own chips even though it has it’s own factories. It also has an OS and AI that are largely thanks to Google so not much left for Samsung to do, just the wrapping paper. 😂 Apple on the otherhand designs and develops phones from the ground up to optimize the user experience…including chipset, OS and the AI.
Can you do some extreme raw performance test on both devices like video rendering or gaming test using emulator or windows emulator for pc like games and all that...!!!
I ended up paying $429, including taxes, for the S25 Ultra, the Buds 3 Pro, and the Kindsuit case after trading in my S24 Ultra. Last year, I spent more-$546-for just the Buds 2 Pro and the S24 Ultra after trading in my S23 Ultra. So, this year's deals are worthwhile if you have a good trade-in. After the trade-in, the OnePlus 13 would have cost me over $600, including taxes. Since I'm invested in the Samsung ecosystem, trading in for the S25 Ultra was my best choice. Some users may complain about the minor improvements, but they are more significant than they appear. The S25 Ultra features a Grade 5 titanium frame, an improved anti-glare and stronger screen, a better system-on-chip (SoC), enhanced ultra-wide angle capabilities, an upgraded neural processing unit (NPU), and better image signal processing (ISP). Additionally, it offers better-flickering control for those with eye strain, a larger vapor chamber that improves thermal management, and noticeable battery life enhancements. While it may not feel like a generational leap, paying $429 for these improvements is worth it.
I ordered the s25 can't wait for it ! it's gonna take a few weeks it will be shipped on February 4th and then god's know how many days for it to arrive to me in Kuwait xD
1:25 Most Android users I see tap to unlock this way and then draw the notification panel to read what's up there. It's like you always gotta make a decision and also, the lock screen configurations become useless this way because you're barely ever looking at it. Meanwhile, since the default behaviour of iOS is to leave you at the lock screen, you always already have a glimpse of the notifications and only leave it when you have seen whatever you need to and can continue opening the apps. It might seem "annoying" but it's actually a wise choice.
People think that just because Samsung has two biometrical security options makes it better than iPhone, but that's not the case. iPhone’s TouchID (older phones) and face id (newer phones) are wayyy more secure than Samsung’s
You can actually bypass the Lock Screen on the iPhone if you have the always on display enabled. Then you can just swipe up to unlock, rather than pressing the side button first
I regret being stuck on the Apple ecosystem for over 15 years. Someone please help me. I have an apple watch, 10 speakers around the home, imessage, airpods max, airpods pro, macbook pro m4, apple tv. Am I doomed and stuck forever?
It's actually the better optimization of apps and games for iPhones by the developers that makes it an overall more pleasant experience than an Android. Even Google's own apps work way better on iOS than android.
Tempted to look at S25 Ultra, my iPhone 15 Pro Max is a mess! Apple is more interested in developing emoji’s!!!!

It also has an OS and AI that are largely thanks to Google so not much left for Samsung to do, just the wrapping paper. 😂 Apple on the otherhand designs and develops phones from the ground up to optimize the user experience…including chipset, OS and the AI.
But the S25 Ultra destroyed the iPhone 16 Pro Max
But the iPhone 16 Pro Max destroyed the S24 Ultra
no one cares
Can you do some extreme raw performance test on both devices like video rendering or gaming test using emulator or windows emulator for pc like games and all that...!!!
Wow... The iPhone is being beaten by the competition.
Yes, Samsung has just taken the lead back again, we shall see how the iPhone 17 Pro Max later this year stacks up
I ended up paying $429, including taxes, for the S25 Ultra, the Buds 3 Pro, and the Kindsuit case after trading in my S24 Ultra. Last year, I spent more-$546-for just the Buds 2 Pro and the S24 Ultra after trading in my S23 Ultra. So, this year's deals are worthwhile if you have a good trade-in.
After the trade-in, the OnePlus 13 would have cost me over $600, including taxes. Since I'm invested in the Samsung ecosystem, trading in for the S25 Ultra was my best choice.
Some users may complain about the minor improvements, but they are more significant than they appear. The S25 Ultra features a Grade 5 titanium frame, an improved anti-glare and stronger screen, a better system-on-chip (SoC), enhanced ultra-wide angle capabilities, an upgraded neural processing unit (NPU), and better image signal processing (ISP). Additionally, it offers better-flickering control for those with eye strain, a larger vapor chamber that improves thermal management, and noticeable battery life enhancements.
While it may not feel like a generational leap, paying $429 for these improvements is worth it.
I ordered the s25 can't wait for it ! it's gonna take a few weeks it will be shipped on February 4th and then god's know how many days for it to arrive to me in Kuwait xD
1:25 Most Android users I see tap to unlock this way and then draw the notification panel to read what's up there. It's like you always gotta make a decision and also, the lock screen configurations become useless this way because you're barely ever looking at it.
Meanwhile, since the default behaviour of iOS is to leave you at the lock screen, you always already have a glimpse of the notifications and only leave it when you have seen whatever you need to and can continue opening the apps.
It might seem "annoying" but it's actually a wise choice.
People think that just because Samsung has two biometrical security options makes it better than iPhone, but that's not the case. iPhone’s TouchID (older phones) and face id (newer phones) are wayyy more secure than Samsung’s
Hello my bro, how much does it cost Samsung Galaxy S25 ultra name the real price🤔🤔 please say
Why Samsung never disappoint me in every comparison I've been seen for 3yrs now
You can actually bypass the Lock Screen on the iPhone if you have the always on display enabled. Then you can just swipe up to unlock, rather than pressing the side button first
Hey, your magic black ring on the left hand definitely accelerates speed of Samsung!😂
Finally it's here
Thank you for this amazing video
Galaxy s25 ultra is a beast
Samsung is better than iphone 😊❤
I regret being stuck on the Apple ecosystem for over 15 years. Someone please help me. I have an apple watch, 10 speakers around the home, imessage, airpods max, airpods pro, macbook pro m4, apple tv.
Am I doomed and stuck forever?
No, just buy other stuff too… I don’t get it
It would be cool if you do comparison for mid range devices too, like Poco X6 vs Like the galaxy a55 or sm
How things have changed
It's actually the better optimization of apps and games for iPhones by the developers that makes it an overall more pleasant experience than an Android.
Even Google's own apps work way better on iOS than android.
@@DocThinksyeah used to be the case a couple years back, not anymore I use both platforms
Not anymore
Which animation is better? I mean u feel smoother while using
If I had to guess I'd say the iPhone would be more consistently smooth across the UI. One UI 7 looks pretty polished though
OMG you've got a really nice voice❤❤
