The Apple iPhone 15 Pro offers a consistently higher quality camera with better photo and video capabilities, along with a more compact design and higher screen quality, but it comes at a premium price. Meanwhile, the Samsung Galaxy S22+ is priced more accessibly with a slightly larger screen and longer battery life, yet it compromises slightly on camera quality. If the camera and screen quality are your top priorities and you're willing to invest more, go for the iPhone 15 Pro. However, if you prefer a larger screen, longer battery life, and wish to save money, the Samsung Galaxy S22+ might suit you better. Give Feedback

Tom's Guide

Mark Spoonauer | September 2023
"The iPhone 15 Pro is the one to get if you want a powerful flagship you can easily use it with one hand. Not only is the titanium design stronger and lighter, Apple made the design smaller with slimmer bezels. You also get very strong cameras with night mode and portrait improvements, blazing performance from the A17 Pro chip and a smart Action button."

Android Police

Daniel Bader | March 2022
"It has an incredible display, best-in-class performance, and some awesome value adds, like an improved main camera sensor over last year and some of the best haptics you can find in the Android ecosystem. This is one of the best Android phones you can buy and will only get better over its four years of promised platform updates."
