What CompareTab says about Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra vs Apple iPhone 16 Plus

Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra has clear advantages in memory, battery capacity and display refresh rate over iPhone 16 Plus, with 12 GB of RAM versus 8 GB, 256 GB of storage versus 128 GB, a 5000 mAh battery versus 4674 mAh, and a 120 Hz display instead of 60 Hz. It also adds a higher-resolution rear camera (108 MP versus 48 MP), a higher-resolution front camera (40 MP versus 12 MP), and 45W charging. The main trade-off is the Galaxy S22 Ultra’s extra RAM, storage, faster charging, battery capacity, and smoother display versus the iPhone 16 Plus’s lower price, higher quoted peak brightness, and lighter, thinner build.
