Galaxy S23 Ultra dominates in battery and camera performance, but front speaker design affects battery life.

PhoneBuff conducted a practical battery test between the Galaxy S23 Ultra and the iPhone 14 Pro Max, with the latter emerging as the winner due to its custom-designed hardware and software and limited multitasking. However, the Galaxy S23 Ultra lasted for 27 hours and 6 minutes on a single charge, offering more features and proper multitasking. The test highlights the importance of custom hardware and software for better results.
