When Apple announced the iPhone 16 Pro Max, we all figured everyone in tech was going to be head down on this 2024 release. But the hype has already turned to a 2025 player: Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Ultra. Apple is updating its flagship device with its usual refinements, but most people who follow the tech industry seem excited for what will likely be Samsung’s next ultra-premium model, a move that signals some major changes to the long-running Apple vs. Samsung rivalry.
Although some people may consider the writer an “Apple fanboy” or a “Samsung hater,” the writer insists that his position is based solely on facts. Of course, they see the importance of Apple’s iPhone 16 Pro Max, but the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra will be more revolutionary. This is not a question of preference but rather the excitement people have in an engineering wonder that is Samsung.
A primary point of comparison is the bezel design. Though the difference from the Galaxy S24 Plus does not look significant, Apple markets the iPhone 16 Pro Max as one with the thinnest bezels ever. Contrast that with the Galaxy S25 Ultra, which wishes bezels a nemesis in and of their own right—to 1.15mm thick would allegedly be cool—taking Apple by some comfortable margin.

In design, it is expected that the Galaxy S25 Ultra will be lighter, thinner, and narrower than its predecessor, with an estimated 219 grams including the stylus, which would be compared to the iPhone 16 Pro Max’s 227 grams. To an extent, you could argue that the weight of the S25 Ultra plus Samsung’s focus on sharper, boxier looks is a version of the device for people who like rounded corners.
Another contentious factor that is in constant debate pertaining to AI. Apple evolved its own AI system called Apple Intelligence, which was quite disappointing as it was launched much later than expected and was unable to perform as expected. However, Samsung’s Galaxy AI seems to be in better progress, which makes it as a point of a focus on the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
The iPhone 16 Pro Max has more enhancements, yet the wait for the Galaxy S25 Ultra is getting intense. Samsung’s upcoming release focuses on design innovations, lighter weight, and application of a more advanced AI platform, making it possible for the gadget to light the stage in 2025.
