Apple unveiled its iPhone 14 lineup at its September event, where it's the biggest, best-equipped, and most expensive model iPhone 14 For Max. If we look for its biggest competitor among classic smartphones, it is certainly her Galaxy S22 Ultra. How do these flagship phones stack up against each other?
Display
Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max has a 6,7" LTPO Super Retina XDR OLED display that has a screen-to-body ratio of 88,3%. Its resolution is 1290 x 2796 pixels and the density is therefore 460 ppi. The adaptive refresh rate ranges from 1 to 120 Hz. It reaches up to 2 nits of brightness, is capable of HDR000, and the company describes its glass technology as Ceramic Shield. The Pro versions finally learned Always On as well.
Samsung Galaxy The S22 Ultra has a 6,8" Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a 90,2% screen-to-body ratio. The resolution is 1440 x 3088 pixels and the pixel density is equal to 500 ppi. The brightness reaches 1 nits, the adaptive refresh rate starts at 750 Hz and goes up to 1 Hz, HDR120+ is also included. The glass is Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+ and Always On is a matter of course.
Performance and memory
Apple equipped only the iPhone 14 Pro with the new A16 Bionic chip, which is manufactured using 4nm technology. It is a 6-core CPU and 5-core GPU. Galaxy The S22 Ultra is distributed in Europe with Samsung's Exynos 2200, which is also made with 4nm technology, but is 8-core. Variants with 8 or 12 GB of RAM are available, new iPhone will offer 6GB of memory in any variant of the selected memory. Both have 128, 256, 512 GB or 1 TB.

Battery and price
The iPhone's battery is still unknown, but it can be assumed that it will be the same as the one in the previous generation, which had a capacity of 4 mAh. But there is fast charging (352% in 50 minutes), USB Power Delivery 30, MagSafe wireless charging 2.0W and Qi magnetic wireless charging 15W. Galaxy The S22 Ultra has a 5mAh battery with 000W fast charging, 45W Qi wireless charging and 15W reverse wireless charging. USB Power Delivery is in version 4,5.
The resistance of both is according to IP68. iPhone but it can handle 30 minutes at a depth of 6 meters, whereas Galaxy for the same time only in a meter and a half. At least it is worth mentioning the weight, which is 240 gau for the iPhone Galaxy 228 gram. iPhone it is lower, narrower and thinner. The new iPhones do have a satellite SOS function, but we won't be using it here anyway. It has a redesigned cutout, but Galaxy it only has a punch and adds an S Pen. So although the devices are in direct competition, they are very different.

Error in the article: adaptive frequency u iphone 14 for max is 1Hz – 120Hz
S22U is top for me, mainly because of Spen. Who prefers iOS, so he has nothing to think about. The S22U is more of a competition for mobiles with an OS Android and not for iPhones. Who wants Spen, this one iPhone is no competition, or The S22U has no competition in this regard.
I agree! I have s22 ultra and za iPhone I wouldn't change. I slowly use Spen every day and I can't imagine not having it.
Iphone Do not take 13 or 14 or 12. Steve would have to slap them at Apple if he was still alive. No photo innovation, no zoom, almost no free download system. I have an S22 Ultra and honestly, even if someone gave me a new one Iphone and 10, I would have to reject it, because in my life I can't even do 10% of what I did with the 22 Ultra. Iphone I buy people and I see it on new women too, because there is an apple drawn on it. But they don't understand at all that I'm buying a brick with a picture of an apple on it, and that's the end of it.
…. I would say the world iOS you don't know at all and that's why you write the usual untrue clichés 🙂
There are errors in the Display section of the article. It says that iphone 13! for max and another bug is that the refresh rate on 14 pro is 1-120Hz not 10-120Hz
Fixed thanks
If a person wants spen, then he is clear. The only drawback can be exynoss compared to snapdragon. Also, if you don't want such a big phone, you can go for a smaller version, no problem with the iPhone, but Samsung loses the advantage because of the foam
Exynos is currently at least as good as snapdragon, only in the last generation it heats up less 😉
I have a way IPhone 13 so S21 and I can confirm the words above, those who want something more from their phone choose S21 or S22 (active widgets with emails, calendar widget, text reflow (Opera browser on androidu umi, umi dark mode (converts all web pages to Dark mode, addblock integrated), endurance, but for an ordinary undemanding user IOs is a good choice, not for me
