In recent days, several news and leaks about the iPhone 17 series smartphones have surfaced over the internet. It is being speculated that the new iPhone 17 Pro Max could be launched in the second half of 2025.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra comes to this battle with a powerful new 50MP ultrawide camera, up from 12MP on the Galaxy S24 Ultra. This same lens also promises four times as much detail when taking macro shots.

On paper, the Galaxy S25 Ultra has the iPhone 16 Pro Max's number. The Galaxy S25 Ultra has 200MP wide, 50MP ultrawide, and 50MP telephoto cameras. The iPhone 16 Pro Max only has 48MP wide, 48MP ultrawise, and 12MP telephoto cameras, respectively. The more megapixels often equates to more detailed and higher resolution photos.
