The speed of the Galaxy S23 Ultra and iPhone 14 Pro Max compared on video

Youtuber PhoneBuff has already conducted a traditional comparison of the speed of the current flagships from Apple and Samsung. He took the top versions: iPhone 14 Pro Max and Galaxy S23 Ultra. Inside - Apple A16 Bionic and custom Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Samsung, respectively.

The principle of this test is simple: popular applications are opened in turn on both smartphones, and with the help of a robotic arm, with a stylus they perform simple actions: upload a table or document, take a selfie or process a photo in Snapseed. After the first circle, all applications are reopened: here the speed is affected by how many applications the system can keep in memory.

According to the results of the first round, the iPhone for the first time in 4 years lost to the Galaxy in the tests of this blogger: 1:55.67 against 1:54.31. The difference is just over a second, but this is already a victory for Samsung. On the second lap, the iPhone rehabilitated with a time of 0:45.86 versus 0:47.46. In two tests, the Galaxy S23 showed a time of 2:41.78, and the iPhone 14 - 2:41.53. The difference is small enough to be attributed to an error, so it's a full draw here.

The conclusion is already traditional for such tests: the current flagships have become amazingly powerful and fast, and any of them is more than enough for everyday use and games. And iOS or Android is already a matter of user preference.
