The YouTube channel PhoneBuff documented the results after previously conducting durability tests between the two flagship devices. The Galaxy S25 Ultra maintained a three-app advantage during the competition and completed video export tasks faster than its competitor. Software optimization appears to have given Samsung's device an edge, as the S25 Ultra finished the first lap in 2 minutes and 2 seconds, compared to the iPhone's 2 minutes and 16 seconds. Apple's device struggled with iOS 26, which analysts suggest requires significant refinement. The second lap times showed the Galaxy S25 Ultra completing the test in 49 seconds, while the iPhone 17 Pro Max finished in 47 seconds, but Samsung retained its overall lead. [/QUOTE]
