Should you upgrade from the Galaxy S21 Ultra to the iPhone 15 Pro Max? If you're willing to dip your toes in the iOS ecosystem and experience what we anticipate to be one of the top phones of 2023, then go for it.
In terms of colors, the iPhone 15 Pro Max is likely coming in the classic Space Gray, Silver, and Gold, as well as a new deep red color that could carry the snazzy Burgundy Red name. Very posh. In the meantime, the Galaxy S21 Ultra was available in Phantom Black and Phantom Silver, while Titanium, Navy, and Brown were exclusive to the Samsung.com store. We don't expect many changes for the iPhone 15 Pro Max's display; at least we haven't heard of any major ones.
The Galaxy S21 Ultra came with a relatively sluggish ultrasonic fingerprint scanner embedded right into the display, which is generally slower than similar sensors of the optical variety. The iPhone 15 Pro Max would have anything like that; Apple will once again rely on the tried-and-true Face ID system, built right into that Dynamic Island punch-hole. Apple's next big iPhone will be coming with the 3nm Apple A17 chipset.
Both were manufactured on a 5nm process and were generally great for everyday usage and intensive tasks, but at the time, we found them to be lacking when it comes to sustained performance due to thermal throttling. Synthetic benchmarks weren't kind to the Samsung flagship of 2021 either. We expect that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will receive software support until 2028 at least, with the possibility for further support down the line still possible. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S21 Ultra is already half-way through its support lifetime, as Samsung's new policy of four major Android software updates and five years of security updates kicked off with the Galaxy S21 series in particular. So, the phone will be supported until 2025/2026, respectively.
We don't expect any changes in the ultra-wide camera of the iPhone 15 Pro Max, and the FaceTime front-facing camera will likely remain same-ish. We expect that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will continue the long reign of iPhones as some of the best-sounding devices around. A recurring theme with some of the latest iPhone super-flagships has been the deep and rich sound, with a noticeable bass and punch in the high freqs, allowing for a very pleasant listening experience.
