If camera quality is a priority and you're open to investing more, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra may be the better choice with its higher megapixel count and superior zoom capabilities, including a 10x optical zoom. For those who prefer a more user-friendly interface and ecosystem integration, the iPhone 13 Pro Max with iOS might appeal to you, but its camera, while excellent, is not as high-spec as Samsung's on paper. With battery life, the Samsung has the larger capacity, which could translate to longer usage between charges. The iPhone, however, is often less expensive, so if budget is a key concern, it offers a balance between performance and cost. Screen size is comparable, with Samsung's being slightly larger, but both have high-quality OLED displays for crisp images. The iPhone uses the proprietary Lightning connector, whereas the Samsung features the more universal USB-C. Give Feedback
