Speaker 1: The Samsung Galaxy S 23 Extremely has arrived. However how does it differ from final yr’s S 22 Extremely? And should you’re considering of creating the change from Android to Apple or vice versa, I am positive you are questioning how does it evaluate to a different high of the road cellphone, the iPhone 14 Professional Max? Let’s examine how these telephones stack up and do not forget that these are solely the on paper specs, so remember to subscribe to CNET to see our full evaluation of this cellphone as soon as we have now it in hand. Now that the S 23 ultras out, we are able to look forward to finding the S 22 Extremely [00:00:30] for much less, however each the S 22 and S 23 Extremely technically begin at $1,200 whereas the iPhone 14 Professional Max begins at $1,100.
Speaker 1: The S 23 Extremely has the most recent Snap Dragon eight Gen two processor, and the S 22 Extremely has the Snapdragon eight Gen one processor or EXOS 2200 chip, relying on the place you reside. The iPhone 14 Professional Max, alternatively, options apple’s newest A [00:01:00] 16 bionic chip. The S 22 and S 23 Extremely have completely different RAM and storage choices primarily based on the place you reside and what chip you’ve got. For the S 22 Extremely, the storage choices begin out at 128 gigabytes with eight gigabytes of ram. After that, you may get 256 and 512 gigabytes, in addition to one terabyte of inner storage, all of which have 12 gigabytes of ram. For the S 23 Extremely, the storage choices begin out at 256 gigabytes with eight gigabytes of ram. After that, you may get 512 gigabytes [00:01:30] or one terabyte of storage, each of which have 12 gigabytes of ram.
Speaker 1: So Samsung is doubling the quantity of storage on the bottom S 23 Extremely mannequin with out elevating the worth. That is fairly candy. And whereas the S 23 Extremely has nixed the 128 storage possibility, the most recent iPhone has not. The 14 Professional Max is available in 100 twenty eight, 200 fifty six, and 512 gigabyte, in addition to one terabyte storage choices. Now I believe that any cellphone that prices a thousand {dollars} or extra in 2023 ought to begin at 256 gigabytes [00:02:00] of storage. So I actually do not feel like that 128 gigabyte possibility is critical from Apple. It is also value noting that whereas the beginning worth of the 14 Professional Max is 100 {dollars} lower than that of the S 22 and S 23 Extremely, A 14 Professional Max with 256 gigabytes of storage is $1,200, which is similar worth as an S 23 Extremely with 256 gigabytes of storage. In order that worth distinction disappears when you get into the equal storage choices for the 14 Professional Max and S 23 Extremely. [00:02:30] And sadly neither the S 22 or S 23 Extremely nor the 14 Professional Max have expandable storage.
Speaker 1: The S 22 and S 23 Extremely each have that signature built-in spen, which differentiates them from earlier fashions and makes them really feel nearer to a word sequence cellphone. The 14 Professional Max, alternatively, does not have a stylist. Whereas Apple sells first and second gen Apple pencils, neither of them work with an iPhone, which I believe is a missed alternative or higher but, how cool [00:03:00] would an iPhone particular Apple Pencil mini be a woman can dream? The S 22 and S 23 Extremely have a 6.8 inch dynamic ammo LED show, and each telephones have a thirty eighty eight by 1440 pixel decision at 500 PPI and 120 hertz refresh price that adjusts primarily based on the way you’re utilizing your cellphone. So if what you are doing does not require a variety of display motion, like say studying the information, this refresh price will likely be low. But when what you are doing takes up a variety of motion like enjoying a online game, the refresh price will go up. The [00:03:30] iPhone 14 Professional Max has a barely smaller 6.7 inch ole show with a 27 96 by 1290 pixel decision at 4 60 ppi. And it additionally has a refresh price of as much as 120 hertz. The S 22 S 23 Extremely have an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor below the display to unlock the cellphone. The 14 Professional Max unlocks with face Id
Speaker 1: Ask for the way these telephones will really feel. The S 22 S 23 Extremely are each 8.9 [00:04:00] millimeters thick, whereas the 14 Professional Max is 7.85 millimeters thick. So a bit of bit slimmer. The S 22 ULTRA is 8.04 ounces whereas the S 23 Extremely is 8.25 ounces. And the 14 Professional Max is 8.47 ounces. All of those telephones are rated IP 68, in order that they’re waterproof.
Speaker 1: There are a couple of variations between the S 22 and S 23 Extremely cameras, however they’re largely the identical. Each telephones have that signature. For digicam system, [00:04:30] there’s a 12 megapixel extremely vast digicam with an F 2.2 lens, a ten megapixel telephoto digicam with an F 4.9 lens and one other 10 megapixel telephoto digicam with an F 2.4 lens with one telephoto digicam providing thrice optical zoom and the opposite providing 10 instances optical zoom. However with regards to that fourth digicam, the S 22 Extremely has 108 megapixel sensor with an F 1.8 vast angle lens. Whereas the S 23 Extremely has a 200 megapixel sensor with an F 1.7 [00:05:00] aperture vast angle lens, so the S 23 Extremely vast angle lens has extra megapixels than that of the S 22 Extremely. Each telephones even have a Area Zoom characteristic with as much as 100 instances digital Zoom functionality.
Speaker 1: Ask on your selfies. The S 22 Extremely has a 40 megapixel entrance digicam with an F 2.2 lens. Whereas the S 23 Extremely has a 12 megapixel entrance digicam with an F 2.2 lens, so the brand new selfie digicam has much less megapixels. But it surely’s necessary to notice that not all megapixels are equal and extra does not essentially [00:05:30] imply higher. So all we all know is the decision for now.

There is a 48 megapixel essential digicam with an F1 0.78 lens, a 12 megapixel extremely vast digicam with an F 2.2 lens, and a 12 megapixel thrice telephoto digicam with an F 2.8 lens. There’s additionally a 12 megapixel entrance digicam with an F1 0.9 lens. I do know among the [00:06:00] megapixels are increased on the S 22 and S 23 Extremely versus the 14 Professional Max, however do not forget that like I stated, extra megapixels does not essentially equate to higher picture high quality.
Speaker 1: Now, with regards to video, the S 22 Extremely helps eight Ok video at 24 frames per second. Whereas the S 23 Extremely helps eight Ok recording at 30 frames per second, each telephones additionally assist 4K 60 recording on the back and front cameras.
