Whenever a brand new flagship phone hits the market there will always be someone who wants to see how well it survives impacts. That usually involves dropping it from a great height or using some fancy tool to see how the phone stands up to some torture. This time it’s the turn of the $1500 Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra.
Because we can’t do anything without comparing phones anymore, YouTuber PhoneBuff decided that the iPhone 11 Pro Max should go up against Samsung’s costly behemoth. So that’s what happened, with the two phones put through the wringer to see which came out on top.
You can watch the full video to see how things went down, and to ultimately decide for yourself which phone came out on top. PhoneBuff gave the win to the Galaxy S20 Ultra, but it was so close to call that we reckon most people will come out with a slightly different result the more they watch the video.
Realistically, it doesn’t really matter all that much. There’s plenty of debate about how realistic these tests are. Much the same as so-called “real world” speed tests, take this video with a pinch of salt.
It’s unlikely anyone’s buying decision will be swayed by what they see here.
