What’s more is that I’m still thinking about one device and one device only, which no one will be able to get their hands on for at least another four months or so. Its name is likely to shock all those of you who have labeled me and so many other PhoneArena writers as “iSheep”, “iBoys”, Apple fanboys (kind of sexist, by the way), and Samsung haters merely for reporting facts or expressing our sincere opinions (as “flawed” as they may be).
Ew, brother, what’s that?
The iPhone 16 Pro Max bezel is much wider than I expected. Its bezel width is comparable to that of the Galaxy S24+. We were misled by the CAD drawings, which are different from the actual device. In other words, the 1.15mm bezel does not exist. pic.twitter.com/QONvCODcJh

The S25 Ultra looks like the best of both worlds.
Rounded corners? It’s probably a little early to call it, but in my book, it looks like Samsung will be able to strike a much better balance between sharpness and roundness with the S25 Ultra. I don’t know about everyone else, but I like my premium phones to look as boxy as possible without making my hand hurt with their piercing corners, and at least for the time being, it appears that the Galaxy S25 Ultra could pull that off pretty much without flaw.
One more thing
The problem is… that doesn’t seem to be the case. Not yet, at least. I know, I know, it’s not about who does what first, but it’s definitely disappointing (to me, at least) to see Apple arrive so late (and so unprepared) to the AI party with so very few original tools and capabilities.

Apple Intelligence is not ready for primetime yet, and make no mistake, the reason why the AI platform was detailed alongside the iPhone 16 series anyway is that without it, Apple’s newest handsets are as boring as a 2024 Katy Perry song.
