iPhone 12 Pro Max vs S21 Ultra 5G – Which Should You Choose?

Hi everyone Aaron now for Zollotech and this isthe iphone 12 pro max and the samsung s21 ultra 5g and i wanted to help you decide which would bebest for you and so the first thing is the price they do vary a little in expenditure the iphone 12 pro max comes in at 1099 and goes up to 1 399 the s21 ultra comes in at 1199 and goes up to 1 379 so there’s a little bit of certain differences at the low-grade culminate and a very closer comparison at the top endboth of them have three storage options of 128 256 or 512 gigabytes neither of them have expandablestorage this year so you have the same for both now as far as the colouring availability well theiphone has four shades you have silver gold graphite and this pacific off-color which looksreally nice and then likewise with the s21 ultra you have a few different other coloring options aswell so you have phantom black which i have here as well as phantom silver and then three specialorder copies phantom titanium apparition navy and figment dark-brown so you’ve got all of those optionsfor the different telephones now when it comes to the overall improve of the phones they’re bothslightly different the iphone 12 pro max is stainless steel around the outside edge so youhave a band around the whole outside of the phone that’s stainless steel unusually shiny and then youhave glass front and back this is ceramic shield from corning it should be four times less likelyto shatter in the event that you droop the phone it also seems to hold up fairly well to scratchesso far on the s21 ultra it’s created a little bit differently you have aluminum around theoutside edge with glass breast and back but this time we have gorilla glass victus now whether ornot they’re the same thing or very similar is hard to say but corning seem to have been make both of them butit is aluminum instead of stainless steel around the outside edge and even though it’s aluminumit’s actually a little bit heavier so the iphone 12 pro max comes in at 8.03 ounces or 228 gramswhere the s21 ultra is 229 grams or 8.07 ounces for the millimeter wave explanation so they bothhave 5g with millimeter movement for example now as far as the spectacles well there’s abig difference here so if we snap them over we’ll unlock both and they both have slightlydifferent unlocking programmes you have face id with the iphone 12 pro max which is nice and fast youjust pick it up you too have a face recognition option that’s least secure on the s21 ultra but youhave the under the display fingerprint sensor so put your thumb down it’s very fast it succeeds reallywell and if you’re wearing a mask it’s much more convenient than putting in a passcode for exampleso it’s nice and fast this year much better than previous years even better than the indicate 20 ultrain my experience still further now the displays like i said is different on the 12 pro max youhave a 6.7 inch presentation it’s a super retina xdr 2778 by 1 284 pixels with a density of 458 pixelsper inch it patronage hdr true flavor has a regular brightness of 800 nits and goes up to 1200 nits ofbrightness with hdr with the s21 ultra you’ve got a 6.8 inch display 1440 by 3200 with 515 pixelsper inch so it’s a little bit more pixel dense but it is slightly larger as well you too have ahigher peak brightness of 1500 nits and it has a 120 hertz spectacle that they are able vary all the waydown to 10 hertz based on what you’re doing so that it can help save battery but it’s supersmooth due to that flaunt i’ll talk a little more about that a little bit later and then italso supports an s pen if you want to use a pen so for example if you have this accessory withthe client and you get an s confined or you have an old-time galaxy document you can just take the pencil and thenyou can use it to scroll through do whatever you’d like it does not have a slot in the phonefor it you would need that external speciman you don’t get the breath gestures that you do with theprevious different versions of the samsung tone for example now both of them have loudspeakers at the top and thebottom but they’re a little bit different so on the priorities in the s21 ultra it’s the small slit thatyou envision right at the top of the spectacle there’s this ever so slight aperture at the top where thespeaker is and that also helps with stereo hubbubs when you’re supporting the phone this method you havespeakers on the bottom and the top you too have the same with the iphone so you have the speakerat the top and the bottom and then of course your microphones and everything else you have usbcversus lightning as well so you have those options and as far as the voice they’re both prettygood let’s go into youtube so you can listen to one of my previous videos to see what it soundslike now both of these exhibitions can display hdr so if we go into the settings on the iphone you’llsee we’ve got the option for 4k this is not an hdr video and on the s21 ultra curiously you haveup to 1440 p that’s just the options that show up youtube can change this as they as they choosebut we have same decides you’re not really going to notice certain differences there but you havea higher option on the iphone now let’s go ahead and take a listen to the speakers so i have themicrophone pointing this space we’ll listen to about 15 seconds of the audio on each this is a cameracomparison between all the iphones this year so those are the speakers now let’s talk aboutthe specs with the iphone 12 pro max you have apple’s a14 bionic which is just super fast it hassix gigabytes of ram which doesn’t sound like a lot but it seems to handle it without a problemif you’re going to music and multitasking going back and forth into say youtube for examplethings don’t seem to reload it acts just fine on the s21 ultra “youve had” the new snapdragon 888 processor together with 12 or 16 gigs of ram so yes you definitely have more ram with the phone but itdoesn’t seem to make much of a difference it just seems like android can benefit from it by keepingapps open depending on what you do so if you go into your app switcher now we’ll go to youtubetap on this not only do you get things like divide screen for example or keep open which will keepthe app open in the background and it will not close it automatically because you have that ramto do that so you have extra ram for that and because of that the s21 ultra is a productivitypowerhouse so you’ve got a lot of different options of course this is android related as wellbut if you want to go into youtube for example and then multitask with say another app and splitscreen you can do that you can’t do that on the iphone so now we have two different things here sowe have split screen two different options we can move it around and so you have that advantage overthe iphone and of course full customization with the s21 being that it’ s android so with the iphoneof course you can go into singular apps you can use picture-in-picture on some apps like appletv for example but not everything with the s21 ultra you definitely get more customizationbut that’s just the nature of android its own experience on both is very fast and fluid withthe expose being 120 hertz it emphatically makes a difference with smoothness overall there’s justan advantage with that it precisely is super smooth with the s21 ultra but with the iphone you’regoing to get incredible acceleration either way so it has amazing rush when it comes to opening appssomething like the camera for example you’re going to see is going to be basically the same on bothphones are so fast now that there’s not as large-hearted of a difference as there used to be and in generalyou can do about the same sort of thing and have same knowledge other than the smoothness ofthe display on the s21 ultra with that 120 hertz it obviously makes a difference it’s just supersmooth all the time not everyone will notice that but parties surely will so whether it be you’reopening an app like the camera or you’re opening an app that’s like a social media app such astelegram i have my telegram channel connected below you’ll have that option and it will guide super fasteither way it doesn’t really make a difference as far as race between the two with everyday tasksthe iphone has the neural engine the s21 has an ai engine sort of does the same thing apple’s aheadin the processor as far as the rush overall when you’re doing many things but the majorityof things you’re doing such as instagram or perhaps you’re just watching a youtube video willbe about the same now like i said both events should be pretty great but the cameras are alittle bit different this year with the iphone you have dolby vision hdr for video you have rawphotos as you can see in the upper right of the phone you too have 12 -bit photos on the s21 ultrabut 8k video with the s21 now whether or not the video is better per se is hard to say as we’llhave to compare that in just a moment but you do have that option so there’s so many differentthings between the phones as far as cameras and there’s very different specs for example theforward-facing camera on the iphone 12 pro max is 12 megapixels and has only one f 2.2 aperture butcan record 4k 60 dolby imagination hdr but with the s21 ultra we have a 40 megapixel forward facingcamera with an f 2.2 gap that can also do 4k so we have similar options in both on the backthough it’s very different on the iphone 12 pro max they’ve decided to go with a three lens setupso what we have is triple 12 megapixel cameras we have an ultra wide f 2.4 wide f 1.6 andtelephoto f 2.2 with a 2.5 x visual zoom or 5x punching into the sensor we also have lidar tohelp with things such as autofocus in darker situations and of course we’ve got a flash as wellon the s21 ultra “were having” more lenses in the iphone and a slightly different setup so wehave a 12 megapixel ultra wide f 2.2 108 megapixel wide f 1.8 a 10 megapixel telephotof 2.4 so it’s a 3x telephoto and then a periscope zoom telephoto which is also 10 megapixels f4. 9 too when you get very close to an object it can do macro as well now they’ve opted forlaser autofocus similar to lidar and then of course your flare as well now let’s go aheadand take a look at what the cameras can do in a comparing of both the photos andvideo so let’s take a look at that now so this is the forward-facing camera ofthe iphone 12 pro max and the s21 ultra and as “youre seeing” they gaze verydifferent we have different lenses on them and also the backgrounds gaze a littlebit different on the iphone they gaze a little bit more washed out at least in thescreens that i’m seeing compared to the s21 ultra also we have different microphonesso you can listen the s21 ultra now and now the iphone 12 pro max let me know whichone you think sounds best in the comments below now when it comes to the battery of both they’revery different but the battery life is more same than you would think so with the 12 promaxit has a 3 687 milliamp hour artillery that’s good for about 20 hours of video playback the s21ultra has a 5 000 milliamp hour battery and in evaluations that i’ve seen online the s21 ultra does getthe best battery life between these phones doing similar duties so for example if you were toput netflix on here or perhaps just watch a video streaming from the internet whether that befrom youtube or anywhere else you’ll probably get better battery life with the s21 ultrahowever both of them can get up to about 10 hours of screen on time depending on what you’redoing or 12 hours it actually depends on how you’re using it so if you have the brightness genuinely lowmaybe you’re indoors it’s night and you’re using instagram or you’re using twitter or just socialmedia and you’re not is everything intensive they’re going to last a very long time buteither way they have huge artilleries in both so if you’re going to pick one for the best batterywell technically the s21 has the best battery in the test i’ve seen but they’re so close thati really wouldn’t pick either or simply based on battery alone now both of them have fast chargingcapability and the iphone 12 pro max this year has the same 15 watt fast charging ability as thes2 1 ultra but you need apple’s mag safe adapter so you can really push this in and it will fastcharge up to 15 watts however “if youre using” a lightning connector you can charge it with a20 watt adapter up to about 50 percentage in 30 minutes now the s2121 ultra can also charge onany qi compatible charger but reinforcements 15 watt fast charging but also if you have the supported2 5 watt brick if you bought that dominance adapter you can charge the phone perfectly from zero to 100in about an hour according to samsung this seems to be true i’ve experimented it it’s very close tomaybe an hour hour and ten minutes from zero to 100 and you’re good to go so it commissions superfast compared to the iphone the iphone will take a little bit longer than that but either way theylast throughout the day without a number of problems now both do have same wi-fi specs as well 802.11 abgn and ac however the iphone has wi-fi 6 the s21 ultra has the new wi-fi 6e the s21 ultra alsohas bluetooth 5.2 where the iphone has bluetooth 5.0 so that may make a difference to some peopleit shouldn’t be too big of certain differences though and that delivers me to which one should you chooseif you have a lot of friends and family that use iphones well imessage may be the best thingfor you if you’re really into customization and you don’t have any apple products wellthe s21 ultra may be best for you because it renders a lot of customization and thingsthat the iphone doesn’t such as s pen subscribe or other things such as a different type of camerathere’s different advantages to each one if you’re heavily involved in the apple ecosystem suchas you have a mac or say an ipad imessage jobs delicately between the two conclude my and everything justintegrates really nicely extremely if you have an apple watch for example nonetheless if you require asamsung galaxy watch you could go that route and if you have windows you can integrate this nicelywith that so it actually comes down to which one “youre using” most battery life is very similar likei said and the overall knowledge is so good on both telephones you can’t go wrong with either oneit just comes down to personal liking as far as that runs but let me know which one you choseand why in the comments below maybe you decided to stick with an older phone and that worksbest for you let me know in the comments below if you’d like to get your hands on this wallpaperof course i’ll link it in the specific characteristics like i normally do and if you haven’t subscribedalready delight subscribe and if you enjoyed the video being given it a like as always thanks forwatching this is Aaron i’ll see you next time you
