When it comes to design and styling, the Galaxy and iPhone each have a distinct look. The Galaxy S24 Ultra design is characterized by a bigger footprint, the phone is wider, weighs a bit more, plus it has these signature sharp corners. The iPhone 15 Pro Max, on the other hand, has a more traditional look with rounded corners. The iPhone also weighs less thanks to that new titanium body. In terms of design and appearance, both the Galaxy and iPhone exhibit unique characteristics. The Galaxy S24 Ultra stands out with its larger size, wider dimensions, slightly heavier weight, and distinctive sharp corners. Conversely, the iPhone 15 Pro Max embraces a more conventional aesthetic with its rounded corners. Additionally, the iPhone is lighter due to its newly-introduced titanium body.
When it comes to buttons, the power and volume keys are all on the right side on the Galaxy, while on the iPhone the power button is on the right while the volume keys are on the left which makes it a bit easier to press these together to take a screenshot, for example.
The iPhone also has one extra button: the new Action button! We love the idea, it’s a programmable button which you can set to what you want, but we don’t love the placing as it is in the far top left corner and a bit out of reach.
