*CORRECTION, FOR PHOTOS AND VIDEOS APPLE ON THE LEFT SAMSUNG ON THE RIGHT, the first video sample is Apple, second video sample is Samsung, I regret this oversight! iPhone 13 Pro Max vs Galaxy S21 Ultra - Which to choose? In this video we analyze and breakdown the 2 beasts and figure out which is the better overall device! Share your pick down below and enjoy the content :)
Of course the iPhone. Because:- --- The camera of S21 Ultra is too heavy for its own processor that the phone heats up too quick and forcefully closes the camera app and won't let you use it until it cools down. (report from Samsung Members app itself). --- The camera is usable up to its potential only in the main camera app. Any 3rd party app simply gives bad picture and video quality. Meaning the software isn't well optimized. So even 108 MP or 8K is useless for any other app. --- There are glitches in androids more than iphones in the UI. --- Displays of Samsung flagships are great. But they simply die or become defective at some point, right after the warranty expires or after an update. (yellow/green tint, black screen of death, pink lines, flickering). (Everyday people are complaining about it in the Samsung Members app.) --- For the battery. Better efficiency here goes for the iPhone. Its able to provide greater battery backup with smaller batteries. --- Androids heat up so quickly, the Ultra is going even beyond '55 degree Celsius' in load tests. So overall, the iPhone is able to hold up well. Its a great result for their right decision of focusing more on the processor and software that it now delivers excellent performance with best efficiency. Androids should have done that too, but they didn't and directly went for higher numbers to keep up, which wasn't a great success in reality.
@@Test-pq1mm never had problems with my Samsungs screens dieing or becoming defective. You should see my iPad screen though, the colors are completely messed up to a point were its useless
“Better” is so subjective. Both phones are FANTASTIC choices. I have the 13 Pro, and I love it, but I really like the S21 Ultra, as well. I have used Android and iOS over the years, and they are both excellent and refined. At this point, with where we are regarding tech, we’re really splitting hairs. You can’t go wrong with either. I prefer Apple and their ecosystem because it works best for me, but again, it all comes down to preference and what you’re looking for in your devices. Just enjoy them and appreciate how amazing they are.
This all comes down to the fact that google needs to stop out sourcing android to garbage companies like samsung android is best at its purest which comes on the pixel. This coming from someone who works around all these devices every day of my life
@@typhoon_8086 Those are two of the reasons why I prefer iOS. Apple’s device support is just miles ahead of even the best Android phones. I don’t really think that’s debatable.
Phones have somewhat plateaued, even with faster chips, the performance difference isn't that much. For instance, I watched a speed test with the iphone 13 pro vs the X. The X was hanging right there with the 13 pro. The difference was not that much. I also saw one with S10 vs S21 and it was just as close. Phones have gotten fast enough for the last few years.
@@noventay4The Chinese phones also use Qualcomm and Mediatek just like Samsung. Those companies SOC still trail behind Apple's. I do hope to see more Mediatek devices here in the US outside of tablets. Also, Oneplus was not banned in the US. You can still buy anyone Oneplus from retail stores like Best Buy. The other Chinese phones you have to buy them online.
S21 Ultra is more comfortable to hold with one hand, that's pretty much all I can gather from holding them both. Nothing more is worth mentioning for me.
Not true at all, that is if you have a case Idk which kind of zombies actually don’t use cases on their phones these days🤦♂️ I’d argue the flat sides make the iPhone easier to hold and I get more grip because of the extra surface area on the phone, and buttons are easy to feel as well because they aren’t flush with the body if the phone like on the Samsung
I looked at both today. Both incredible, impossible to pick a better one. The build on the 13 Promax is a thing of beauty, the Samsung has the most incredible vivid colors and screen imaginable. What a decision. I'm Goin nuts

@@jonesjack4023 Both Apple and Samsung offer excellent quality, performance and reliability in their smartphones. However, Samsung offers more for less. With trade in promotions, Samsung beats Apple on price. Samsung also offers much more versatility and customization options.
Standby time on iPhone is deceptive - it shows 100% after 4 hours of standby, but when it reaches 90% it starts to fall drastically and matches the S21 Ultra battery percentage. So Apple is doing some deceptive software tweak when it’s at 100% battery.
@SouthCentral_Kid I have mobile data on all the time and run a lot of TH-cam videos (don't necessarily watch the videos, but the screen is on and something or another is playing) and I get approx 6 hours screen on time ... if I use WiFi instead, I get at least another couple hours more.
I have got both and they are both great phones, for me the iPhone has a slight edge in day to day use, realistically no one will be disappointed with either of these phones
@@tushinaagrawal7437 If anything photos taken on either device look better on the Samsung, possibly due to the higher screen resolution. I haven't found any one camera to be better than the other for my particular usage pattern
All I know is that I've always loved watching your videos the very first time I laid my eyes on them. It was 3 yrs ago when I was looking for a review on the S9 plus. That's when I realized that you're my favorite tech reviewer from then till now. Hats off! Anyway, when it comes to this comparison between these two spectacular phones I prefer the S21 ultra, I love everything about this device. But I do love the 13 pro max as well. Actually, it's quite hard to choose considering that both devices are impressive and beautiful.. 💯❤😍
I’m rocking the 12 Pro Max currently. Came from the Note 10+. Reasons I have an iPhone are I’m an iOS developer, my main work machine is a MacBook, I love the iPad and Apple Watch, and I think iOS apps are more polished and provide a better experience. One thing I miss about Android are the customization options. All together I’m happy on iOS at the moment. Not a fan of Android 12s new UX and since I do have other devices I’ve invested in, I don’t want my phone to force me to not use them (mainly in multitasking which Android does better on phones).
It's actually quite well known that iPhone overstates the battery percentage early on. Which is why it stays at 100 % for a ridiculous amount of time. But overall battery performance is still better on iPhone
@@goochipoochie maybe because the new iPhone just came out . Wait until the samsung s22 and we'll see the difference between s21 ultra and the iPhone 12 pro
I have only bad memories of Samsung, because of Exynos, maybe with Snapdragon it is different, but they always start to work horribly after a year or less. I still have 3 years old XS Max and works perfectly fluid.
About a month ago i bought the S21 Ultra (Exynos version) and i'm loving just everything about it ! 🥰 I'm not an Apple user, but the iphone 13 pro max seems like an awesome phone too..😊
If you're looking for a new device now also consider a Z Fold 3. It feels a bit strange at first but once you get used to it you'll never want to come back 😉
Lol same. I met with the guy yesterday in McDonalds and bought it. My ip12PM is lying next to it. I love both these phones and I don't know which one to keep
I am in doubt atm. I have always been a android user, but something is peeling me to get the iPhone 13 pro max. Why have you moved? And what do you make think Samsung is better? Thank you :)
I went from the 12 pro max to s21 ultra. I've always been so back and forth between iPhone and Samsung. I love how with samsung it's easy to customize and change ur ring tones text ones and the camera. But I love iPhone ios Imessage and battery and apple watch. I just wish they had more customization they make it complicated in my preference. Right now I'm debating keeping s21 ultra or get 13 pro max?
Then you have another great option... Xiaomi mi 11 ultra or 12 in very soon, King battery, and great camera too, and have Android too, Android isnt only Samsung, (i have s21 ultra) that why i love Android, you can choice which its Best for you in any smarthphone, i already had LG, Huawei, xiaomi and now samsung(first Time)
I'm never really a fan of comparing Android and iOS devices because they have such different UIs and UXs. I've been using iOS for over a decade and switched to Android once, and decided that Android wasn't for me, and went back to using iOS again
I'm hanging on to my 512g Note 10+ I did get my Wife the 256g 13 Pro, so she could put that iPhone 8+ away!! She's getting 10hrs 54min on screen time! I thought my Note 10+ was a beast with all Day Use.. Even at over 2yrs old, I'm still getting a day easily & never had a single issue with my Note 10+.. I'm waiting on the S22 Ultra or if rumors are true? The iPhone 14 Pro Max!!
Nickerson, I would say 13 pro max, but part of me misses s21 ultra , tbh iphones are quite boring u know 😴, but I love great videos and Apple does it the best so u know
I couldn’t decide between the two but coming from iOS ecosystem, and did not wanted to be on Android platform with unnecessary apps and options I went with 13 Pro Max.
The great thing about Apple products that I love is how easy it is to have all your devices connected if you have more than 1 Apple product, as someone who’s just starting to create videos and photography, having the whole M1 MacBook and M1 iPad ecosystem really helps speeds things up, along with the iPhone 13 pro, but I’m bias cause I’ve used Apple all my life 🤷🏽♂️
Wifi reception of the iPhone 13 is pretty poor. Also ringtone and earspeaker when calling isn't as loud as S21. I have both phones and can't really choose. I think Android is better for me but I like the smoothness and camera in low light of the iPhone.
The 12 pro max is a great phone but the s21 ultra makes me go back to android and I am so impressed and happy . The 13 pro max is excellent but I'm super happy with the s21 ultra and now more because you confirmed nick. 😉
Ive been a apple fan boy for years, & although this iPhone 13 pro max is a great phone, I’m just very bored with the features compared to the Samsung Galaxy. I’m keeping my eye on the S22… i just can’t get with their OS 😩
I'm an Android user and I like it. Here in Asian Samsung is more famous but in America Iphone wins. I chose I phone because I want to experience it or try it how it feels. But to be honest their both great though.
That's were people are wrong, the 13 pro max competitor is the s21 ultra and the s22 ultra is the iphone 14 competitor, y do people keep comparing two different phones of different years saying it's their competitor, that's silly and simply put android fans just can't take a beating every September from Apple correct me if I'm wrong
But s21 ultra and iphone 13 pro max has huge gap ..but 13 pro max vs s22 have less gap like 3 months so.. iphone launches their phone in the end of year ..this year there is no note 22 ultra cause of that also
I just have to mention you had beauty mode "ON" in the video on the S21 Ultra front facing camera and that is why pictures were not sharp. Otherwise great and objective video.
Hi, I am wondering how is the battery life of Iphone 13 pro compared to 11 pro max? Do the screen noticeably smaller? I am afraid that the max model is too big and heavier
Samsung is always all out ever since. They never holding back every year. They always change design every new phone. iPhone one do half steps every year…
I regards to refresh rate, I think the samsung takes the cake. In terms of smoothness especially since you can scroll faster on the S21 Ultra. Scrolling on the 13 Max is quite a bit slower making smoothness more noticeable on the S21 if you scroll a lot. Some animations do slightly hitch sometimes on S21 for sure. Ive noticed a bit more hitches in the beta.
At the end of the video, S21 Ultra lost 6% battery. I have the S21 Ultra and the battery has been disappointing. The phone is super fast and powerful though. I ordered the 13 pro max just because of the battery and will probably keep the S21 Ultra as my secondary phone. 🙂
Im 100% down with the iphone 13 pro max being the overall best and better phone but I give props to the s21 ultra for being an excellent competitive alternative🙃

I will choose k40pro because of 2-3x lower orice and it got highest end CPUs & gpu-s in cellphone world which made it one of fastest cellphones in market if not fastest
My wife got $1000 trade-in (iPhone 11 128 GB) amount towards her 13 Pro Max. I got $800 trade-in (iPhone Xr 128 GB) towards my 13 Pro. This was a AT&T Promo when we ordered on October 9, 2021. I think the max trade-in is down to $800 now.
@@fortunefolorunsho9734 My wife and I were on an old 30 GB shared plan (it was plenty because we have wifi literally everywhere). To get the deal, we switched to the Unlimited Elite plan for $75 per line ($65 per line after my wife's work discount).
Same here AT&T gave me $1,000 for my 11 pro max 256 gb traded in for 13 pro 256 gb, not bad and I wanted a smaller screen as the max feels too big at times, and I have large hands but the feel of the pro feels way better to me.
@@Red_Bearded_Dad nice. I'm about to trade in my samsung note 8 or s10 for the 13 pro and it sais $800 for each through at@t. But the shipping date is 1 month from now. I called atat and they said stock is very low. How are you liking the phone?
@@hazadoor I haven't gotten it yet. Stock is VERY low. We ordered on Oct 9 and 13 Pro is expected to ship between Oct 22 - 29. My wife's 13 Pro Max (Sierra Blue) won't ship until Nov 5 - 12! I have heard shipping times are getting longer. I cannot confirm that though.
When it comes to the iPhones it's all about infrastructure. If you have several iPhones and/or other Apple devices, there is no doubt about what you want. Purely subjectively, I like how Apple constantly makes, for example, an 8 Plus shine at its very best. It is almost 5 years old, but the operating system gives it new opportunities to shine all the time. If you talk about value for money over time, Apple is the way to go.
iphone has better speed, smoother display (due to optimization on ios) and better battery. All the Samsung can do better is zoom in on the camera... But it's your opinion, and both devices are great!
Samsung has improved so much on the smoothness, but i don't like how fast it scrolls. The scrolling on ios takes its time and that's probably why it feels and looks smoother imo..
I am an android user since always and few months ago I bought an iphone 11pro.... and I just hated the scrolling speed.... It was super slow.... and boring! Also Ios was too boring as compared to android... so i ended up selling it
@@RagnarZizou i think it's a perfect speed because if you want it faster all you do is quickly scroll with your finger and it goes really fast. As soon as you scroll twice quickly it picks up speed but if you do it slowly it's a normal speed scroll. i've had many android phones i was just done with them. but you can't go wrong with the choices we have now with android they've improved so much. but i ended up staying with my 12 pro max..

Have both 13 pro max (first iPhone) and note 20 ultra, but I’m always using the Samsung. It’s just more productive and more flexible compared enlarged mini with no pro’s to its size
I’m still using my 12pro, although, I have always used apple and android phones side by side and I kinda want to wait to see what other androids will come out. As of this point, you could say I’m looking to switch to android but I only want to switch to the best android.
I think iPhone is better because it has more resale value, and it will probably keep working for about 5 years, which Samsung doesn't do, but both are great, but I prefer the iPhone, Besides being better on Instagram and not taking quality from videos and photos, I also think it's prettier, 13 Pro MAX is better but I don't know much if 12 PRO MAX can be better, GalaxyS 21 Ultra Still being a great phone ❤️
Of course the 13PM is better than that overheating garbage called S21 Ultra. Better build quality, vastly superior SoC, better battery, better security/privacy, better OS optimization, longer software support and better resale value. Although I prefer Android over iOS in general. Either way I skipped Samsung this time and went with 13PM.
Why in all these comparisons there is nothing about the fact that Samsung has a decent display and when you touch the iPhone display you have the impression that it is thin plastic, the Samsung display you want to touch and the iPhone is not ..
I have both phones. I have the iPhone pro max 13 512g series blue on Verizon and I have the Samsung s21ultra black 512g on T-Mobile. By far Samsung is superior. You can charge other devices or pods with Samsung. You can use dex and wirelessly use a monitor or tv. There is so much more Samsung does. iPhone just can’t compete. I still enjoy my iPhone. But if you’re deciding between the two go with Samsung.
@@bot_bro3987 iphone 13 pro max user here. Though both phones have amazing battery lives yet because of apple’s optimisations, the 13 pro max has an overall better battery performance.
Just bought a silver 13 Pro Max and I have to say by far The last time I bought a phone out right was the 7+ and it was the gloss black edition the unicorn and this has got to be the best phone since then
The s21 ultra got my vote. But I'll wait til the s22 ultra, however, with the exception of the built in s pen /the 1TB option & new color choices I feel the s21 ultra might have better features..... NOT! 🤣

I love how with samsung it's easy to customize and change ur ring tones text ones and the camera. But I love iPhone ios Imessage and battery and apple watch. I just wish they had more customization they make it complicated in my preference. Right now I'm debating keeping s21 ultra or get 13 pro max?
Then you have another great option... Xiaomi mi 11 ultra or 12 in very soon, King battery, and great camera too, and have Android too, Android isnt only Samsung, (i have s21 ultra) that why i love Android, you can choice which its Best for you in any smarthphone, i already had LG, Huawei, xiaomi and now samsung(first Time)
At this point all I really look at is battery life. Performance wise, flagships are almost all the same.
Do you have any preference on operating system? Just curious🤷🏽♂️
@@robertbijma1463 IOS
Reason: Updates
Nobody mentioned Samsung Dex support. For me thats a key frature.
*I like the design of the 21 Ultra.*
This comparison is absolutely insane, can't wait to see the comparison of Pixel 6 pro and 13 pro max
13 slaps
I'm never really a fan of comparing Android and iOS devices because they have such different UIs and UXs. I've been using iOS for over a decade and switched to Android once, and decided that Android wasn't for me, and went back to using iOS again
I'm hanging on to my 512g Note 10+
I did get my Wife the 256g 13 Pro, so she could put that iPhone 8+ away!!
She's getting 10hrs 54min on screen time! I thought my Note 10+ was a beast with all Day Use.. Even at over 2yrs old, I'm still getting a day easily & never had a single issue with my Note 10+.. I'm waiting on the S22 Ultra or if rumors are true? The iPhone 14 Pro Max!!
Which phone has more pre installed apps? I hate when companies put apps on the phones your never going to use or need
Nickerson, I would say 13 pro max, but part of me misses s21 ultra , tbh iphones are quite boring u know 😴, but I love great videos and Apple does it the best so u know
Currently using s21+ I'm selling it just pre-ordered the pixel 6 I miss that pure android experience
how does the s21+ feel for ya
@@WataDraggon it's okay not to much in to Samsung phones anymore
Iphone 13 pro max is incredable
Pretty good phone, up there with the S21 Ultra
I personally prefer iPhones but both are great. Great video also 😎
I couldn’t decide between the two but coming from iOS ecosystem, and did not wanted to be on Android platform with unnecessary apps and options I went with 13 Pro Max.
Same, but i i coming from Andoid, i like Iphone's design, but im not sure the ios is for me 😅
The great thing about Apple products that I love is how easy it is to have all your devices connected if you have more than 1 Apple product, as someone who’s just starting to create videos and photography, having the whole M1 MacBook and M1 iPad ecosystem really helps speeds things up, along with the iPhone 13 pro, but I’m bias cause I’ve used Apple all my life 🤷🏽♂️
Samsung has a wider ecosystem compared to apple.
Which of these will be better after 3 years of use
19:30 why you didn't turn on the Dolby Atmos?
Dolby Atmos was on just not in my quick panel
Great video nick!!! I enjoyed watching this!!
I have Samsung phones for like 10 years now.. Always Samsung..
S21 Ultra, for sure, even if it's older😄😉👌
Wifi reception of the iPhone 13 is pretty poor. Also ringtone and earspeaker when calling isn't as loud as S21. I have both phones and can't really choose. I think Android is better for me but I like the smoothness and camera in low light of the iPhone.
I have no issues getting wifi service on my 13pro over 80 yards from my house. It reaches out further then my s20u
just wait like 5 months for the new samsung s series if your rlly want this one
The 12 pro max is a great phone but the s21 ultra makes me go back to android and I am so impressed and happy . The 13 pro max is excellent but I'm super happy with the s21 ultra and now more because you confirmed nick. 😉
Apple won in the categories that actually matter but Samsung won in the little stuff🤷♂️
@@Unknownuserhtps That's because S21 Ultra is 9 months old
Ive been a apple fan boy for years, & although this iPhone 13 pro max is a great phone, I’m just very bored with the features compared to the Samsung Galaxy. I’m keeping my eye on the S22… i just can’t get with their OS 😩
got the s215g version myself
I'm an Android user and I like it. Here in Asian Samsung is more famous but in America Iphone wins. I chose I phone because I want to experience it or try it how it feels. But to be honest their both great though.
watching my future phones fighting🔥😂
That's were people are wrong, the 13 pro max competitor is the s21 ultra and the s22 ultra is the iphone 14 competitor, y do people keep comparing two different phones of different years saying it's their competitor, that's silly and simply put android fans just can't take a beating every September from Apple correct me if I'm wrong
That’s seems correct to me!!!!
But s21 ultra and iphone 13 pro max has huge gap ..but 13 pro max vs s22 have less gap like 3 months so.. iphone launches their phone in the end of year ..this year there is no note 22 ultra cause of that also
@@kimsanyt iphone 13 and s22 are almost 6 months apart
I just have to mention you had beauty mode "ON" in the video on the S21 Ultra front facing camera and that is why pictures were not sharp. Otherwise great and objective video.
Hi, I am wondering how is the battery life of Iphone 13 pro compared to 11 pro max? Do the screen noticeably smaller? I am afraid that the max model is too big and heavier
Samsung is always all out ever since. They never holding back every year. They always change design every new phone. iPhone one do half steps every year…
Samsung also have a pretty strong Eco system
I regards to refresh rate, I think the samsung takes the cake. In terms of smoothness especially since you can scroll faster on the S21 Ultra. Scrolling on the 13 Max is quite a bit slower making smoothness more noticeable on the S21 if you scroll a lot. Some animations do slightly hitch sometimes on S21 for sure. Ive noticed a bit more hitches in the beta.
At the end of the video, S21 Ultra lost 6% battery.
I have the S21 Ultra and the battery has been disappointing. The phone is super fast and powerful though.
I ordered the 13 pro max just because of the battery and will probably keep the S21 Ultra as my secondary phone. 🙂
@Daniel hahah dude i sold my s21 ultra and bought iPhone 13 pro max,I'm getting all day battery super happy with iPhone
Im 100% down with the iphone 13 pro max being the overall best and better phone but I give props to the s21 ultra for being an excellent competitive alternative🙃
bang for the buck on the android
I fully agree iPhone 13 is the best.
Not necessarily, it depends on who you’re asking
I'm 100% down with the Samsung s21 ultra being the overall best and better phone but I give props to the iPhone 13 pro max for being an excellent competitive alternative 🙂
I will choose k40pro because of 2-3x lower orice and it got highest end CPUs & gpu-s in cellphone world which made it one of fastest cellphones in market if not fastest
iPhone is just better, I don’t have any reason, it just is.
What Do I Dream To Buy
But
I Can Buy only Budget Phones
Still Dreaming
I love the wallpaper of the galaxy S21 ultra 5G
Finally, someone who nailed the price. Everyone else has been saying the Samsung is more expensive and I'm like "wheeere? "
i think apple is way to refined for android . and for that i came back to them. the 13 pro max is a beast
Is the iPhone wallpaper stock ? Or where can I download ,thanks...
S21ultra for me 🔥👌🔥👌🔥👌
My wife got $1000 trade-in (iPhone 11 128 GB) amount towards her 13 Pro Max. I got $800 trade-in (iPhone Xr 128 GB) towards my 13 Pro. This was a AT&T Promo when we ordered on October 9, 2021. I think the max trade-in is down to $800 now.
How much do you pay for data at at&t?
@@fortunefolorunsho9734 My wife and I were on an old 30 GB shared plan (it was plenty because we have wifi literally everywhere). To get the deal, we switched to the Unlimited Elite plan for $75 per line ($65 per line after my wife's work discount).
Same here AT&T gave me $1,000 for my 11 pro max 256 gb traded in for 13 pro 256 gb, not bad and I wanted a smaller screen as the max feels too big at times, and I have large hands but the feel of the pro feels way better to me.
@@Red_Bearded_Dad nice. I'm about to trade in my samsung note 8 or s10 for the 13 pro and it sais $800 for each through at@t. But the shipping date is 1 month from now. I called atat and they said stock is very low. How are you liking the phone?
@@hazadoor I haven't gotten it yet. Stock is VERY low. We ordered on Oct 9 and 13 Pro is expected to ship between Oct 22 - 29. My wife's 13 Pro Max (Sierra Blue) won't ship until Nov 5 - 12! I have heard shipping times are getting longer. I cannot confirm that though.
When it comes to the iPhones it's all about infrastructure. If you have several iPhones and/or other Apple devices, there is no doubt about what you want. Purely subjectively, I like how Apple constantly makes, for example, an 8 Plus shine at its very best. It is almost 5 years old, but the operating system gives it new opportunities to shine all the time. If you talk about value for money over time, Apple is the way to go.
I agree brother
S21 ultra is better considering the price
S21 ultra hands down is a beast!!! No contest! 🎉 🎈 🎊
iphone has better speed, smoother display (due to optimization on ios) and better battery. All the Samsung can do better is zoom in on the camera... But it's your opinion, and both devices are great!
@@mranonymous9852 iPhone 13 pro max > galaxy s21
@@mranonymous9852 S21 ultra does a lot more than just zoom in on the camera…
If the 13 Pro delay gets longer, I might go with S21 Ultra, despite that we get the Exynos version over here.
Great comparison!
Delay?
@@theknifeconnection9571 Yes?
It's about a month or so here, that's just what apple is saying
@@theknifeconnection9571 stock is less everywhere so its taking time to deliver
@@noventay4 Vivo X70 Pro Plus would be great. Has great low light camera performance. Cameras and photos are my main reason.
Samsung has improved so much on the smoothness, but i don't like how fast it scrolls. The scrolling on ios takes its time and that's probably why it feels and looks smoother imo..
I am an android user since always and few months ago I bought an iphone 11pro.... and I just hated the scrolling speed.... It was super slow.... and boring!
Also Ios was too boring as compared to android... so i ended up selling it
@@RagnarZizou i think it's a perfect speed because if you want it faster all you do is quickly scroll with your finger and it goes really fast. As soon as you scroll twice quickly it picks up speed but if you do it slowly it's a normal speed scroll. i've had many android phones i was just done with them. but you can't go wrong with the choices we have now with android they've improved so much. but i ended up staying with my 12 pro max..
iOS is so much smoother than Android.

Bought both so I don’t need to choose
Have both 13 pro max (first iPhone) and note 20 ultra, but I’m always using the Samsung. It’s just more productive and more flexible compared enlarged mini with no pro’s to its size
There's plenty of pros to its size, just need to look past your bias :)
It just sounds like you don't have the iPhone 13
iPhone 13 Pro max all the way. No question without a doubt. Only android devices i care for are the Pixels, or One Plus device.
I’m still using my 12pro, although, I have always used apple and android phones side by side and I kinda want to wait to see what other androids will come out. As of this point, you could say I’m looking to switch to android but I only want to switch to the best android.
I think iPhone is better because it has more resale value, and it will probably keep working for about 5 years, which Samsung doesn't do, but both are great, but I prefer the iPhone, Besides being better on Instagram and not taking quality from videos and photos, I also think it's prettier, 13 Pro MAX is better but I don't know much if 12 PRO MAX can be better, GalaxyS 21 Ultra Still being a great phone ❤️
Keep going bro🔥🔥
Link for The iPhone Wallpaper ?
Of course the 13PM is better than that overheating garbage called S21 Ultra. Better build quality, vastly superior SoC, better battery, better security/privacy, better OS optimization, longer software support and better resale value. Although I prefer Android over iOS in general. Either way I skipped Samsung this time and went with 13PM.
Why in all these comparisons there is nothing about the fact that Samsung has a decent display and when you touch the iPhone display you have the impression that it is thin plastic, the Samsung display you want to touch and the iPhone is not ..
I have both phones. I have the iPhone pro max 13 512g series blue on Verizon and I have the Samsung s21ultra black 512g on T-Mobile. By far Samsung is superior. You can charge other devices or pods with Samsung. You can use dex and wirelessly use a monitor or tv. There is so much more Samsung does. iPhone just can’t compete. I still enjoy my iPhone. But if you’re deciding between the two go with Samsung.
Watching this on S21 ultra and i can guarantee you that s21 ultra is epic phone MashAllah ❤😍😍😍😍
Iphone has battery health issues🤮
@@bot_bro3987 iphone 13 pro max user here. Though both phones have amazing battery lives yet because of apple’s optimisations, the 13 pro max has an overall better battery performance.
I have both devices Nick and i love them both and in my opinion apple and Samsung are both fantastic companies
Great vid as always nick from the uk 🇬🇧 I choose the 13 pro max this time but that s21 ultra is stunning man .
Their lifespan is very different, the difference is twice as long
Samsung users:💪🏼
Iphone users:💪🏼
Just bought a silver 13 Pro Max and I have to say by far The last time I bought a phone out right was the 7+ and it was the gloss black edition the unicorn and this has got to be the best phone since then
The s21 ultra got my vote. But I'll wait til the s22 ultra, however, with the exception of the built in s pen /the 1TB option & new color choices I feel the s21 ultra might have better features..... NOT! 🤣
Would definitely pick apple since it has the 120hz too
