Prepare yourself for the ultimate smartphone battle! The key heavyweights in the game, Samsung and Apple, are all slated to release their latest flagship models over the next six months.
What’s more, guess what? We get a sneak glance thanks to UniverseIce, a well-known insider who revealed the designs of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra and the iPhone 15 Ultra (they may call it the iPhone 15 Pro Max, but who knows?).
Taking a closer look at the designs
UniverseIce’s leaked photos are like treasure maps, guiding us through the design options that Samsung and Apple are developing. Here’s the scoop: the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra departs from its predecessor’s design by opting for a flatter display.
The iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Ultra, on the other hand (pun intended), appear to be leaning into slightly curvier edges, lending a touch of charm to their aesthetics.
Beauty vs. practicality
It’s not as simple as switching from those fancy curved screens to flat ones. Curves may seem cool, but they may make a phone feel like a slippery eel to handle.
UniverseIce isn’t quite sold by Samsung’s decision to make a larger phone with flatter sides. It’s like going back in time to the days of older Samsung Galaxy Note devices.
Choosing sides is a personal preference
When it comes to appearance, “to each their own” is the rule. We all have different opinions about what makes a phone comfortable to hold and easy on the eyes.
Speaking of eyes, the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s move to a flatter screen may result in more visible boundaries. That may not work well with others who like a more seamless image.
Counting down to the main event
The wait starts now! The Samsung Galaxy S24 group is expected to arrive in January and February, while Apple’s new competitors are set to debut in the coming month.
So, no immediate comparisons between the Galaxy S24 Ultra and the iPhone 15 Ultra.
The final decision
In the world of cell phones, it’s like a never-ending tug of battle. Will people warm up to the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s flat sides, which are similar to older Galaxy Note models? Will Apple’s iPhone 15 Ultra with its curving goodness, on the other hand, win hearts?
