There’s just one problem: theiPhone 16 Pro Maxcurrently sits at the top of our list.
So can Samsung take down the champ?
This same lens also promises four times as much detail when taking macro shots.
There’s a very capable 12MP camera up front.
So which camera phone reigns supreme?
Here’s the results.
Picking a winner in this round isn’t easy.
I really like the brighter exposure from the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
It wins on detail, but the overall image is a bit too dim.
The Galaxy S25 Ultra’s shot make a better impression overall.
My eyes are immediately drawn to the relief in the bricks and the dancing sunlight throughout the image.
The iPhone 16 Pro Max’s shot looks flatter.
Samsung also gives a bit more detail in the leaves in the plant on the left side.
The street, cars and streets signs all look brighter through the iPhone.
This is the image I’d be more likely to share.
Samsung’s phone does a better job of picking up the sunlight in the background.
I think the overall iPhone 16 Pro Max photo pops more because the building and blue sky are brighter.
Additionally, you’ll get up to a $300 Samsung credit with purchase.
