Samsung will likely unveil its next-gen flagship smartphone lineup early next year. Although the company has not shared any details about the Galaxy S23 series so far, leaks about the new devices have already started cropping up. In the last few weeks, we’ve learned that the Galaxy S23 series could feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon SoCs in more regions. In addition, we’ve seen certification listings for the base model revealing that it would still offer 25W wired fast charging support. Yesterday, we got our first look at the Galaxy S23 Plus, courtesy of OnLeaks. Now, the leaker has shared early renders of the vanilla model.
Leaked renders of the base model in the Galaxy S23 lineup reveal that it would look pretty much the same as the Galaxy S23 Plus, featuring an updated camera module design that resembles last year’s Galaxy S22 Ultra, a flat display with a centered hole punch cutout, and rounded edges.
And now comes your very first and very early look at the vanilla #Samsung#GalaxyS23! (360° video + crispy sharp 5K renders + dimensions) #FutureSquad
The renders also reveal that the volume rocker and power button on the Galaxy S23 will reside on the right edge, while the USB Type-C port, speaker grille, and SIM tray will be on the bottom.
Furthermore, OnLeaks claims that the Galaxy S23 will measure roughly 146.3 x 70.8 x 7.6mm, making it slightly taller and wider than its predecessor. However, it won’t have a larger display. OnLeaks claims that the Galaxy S23 will sport a 6.1-inch panel like its predecessor. The display will likely offer 120Hz refresh rate support, but we don’t have any confirmation regarding that at the moment.
Sadly, the leak reveals no details about the Galaxy S23’s hardware. However, we believe it will pack Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip. We’ll make sure to let you know as soon as we have access to more hardware details.
What do you think of the Galaxy S23’s updated design? Do you like the new camera module? Let us know in the comments section below.
Although there are many new features in iPadOS 16, Stage Manager is perhaps the most important and interesting, as it brings a new multitasking system, allowing for a more productive and layered experience. The feature is quite powerful and will even include external display support, as long as the iPad is equipped with an Apple M1 chip. Now, with the latest iPadOS 16 developer beta, Stage Manager is being expanded to work with other iPad models like the older 11-inch iPad Pro and also the 12.9-inch iPad Pro as long as it’s a third-generation or newer.
While this is exciting news, there is one caveat, which is older iPad Pro models will not offer support for Stage Manager on an external display. Furthermore, Apple states that for those with third and fourth-generation iPad Pros, the feature will work in a reduced capacity, only allowing support for up to four apps on a single screen instead of the eight apps that can be run on M1 iPad models. As to why this feature is now rolling out when initially it was said it couldn’t deliver the right experience to older iPads, Apple had this to say:
“Delivering this multi-display support is only possible with the full power of M1-based iPads. Customers with iPad Pro 3rd and 4th generation have expressed strong interest in being able to experience Stage Manager on their iPads. In response, our teams have worked hard to find a way to deliver a single-screen version for these systems, with support for up to four live apps on the iPad screen at once.”
Back in June during WWDC22, Apple announced iPadOS 16, alongside iOS 16 and macOS Ventura. iPadOS 16 was originally slated to be released alongside iOS 16 but was later delayed. The Cupertino giant stated that the reason for the delay was that it was an “especially big year for iPadOS” and that it had the ability to deliver the software “on its own schedule.” While it didn’t come out and say it, early reports indicated that the delay was caused in part due to its complex Stage Manager feature. Although external display support on M1 iPads for Stage Manager had been present since the first developer beta, Apple has removed the feature in the latest beta update. It plans to restore it with a software update sometime later this year. The public release of iPadOS 16 is scheduled to arrive sometime in October.

Logitech is expanding on its popular Designed for Mac portfolio. Coming to the family are two mice and two keyboards. The mice include the Logitech MX Master 3S for Mac and the Logitech Vertical Ergonomic Mouse for Mac. The two new keyboards are the MX Mechanical Mini for Mac and a new Logitech K380 Multi-Device Bluetooth keyboard in Blueberry color.
All the products are now on sale and put the needs of Mac users first. Logitech says it’s aiming for seamless integration with Macs, as well as performance and comfort with these products.
New Logitech Designed for Mac mice
If you’re familiar with Logitech’s lineup, then these new mice should not be too surprising for you. Both of these mice are essentially specialized Mac versions of the previously available multiplatform MX Master 3S mouse, and the Lift Vertical Ergonomic mouse. There are not many visual differences over the multiplatform versions. Logitech told us that the firmware tweaks are what matter, as well as a few smaller tweaks with packaging.
Here are the differences between these new mice and the existing products. In the case of the MX Master 3S for Mac, Logitech is opting to include a USB-C to USB-C cable for charging. Both of these products also don’t come with USB receivers, as Logitech wants Mac users to enjoy a free port on their device, instead. If you buy a Logi Bolt receiver separately or use an existing one, you will be able to use it with your mouse if you please.
As a reminder, the Logitech MX Master 3s for Mac should bring several improvements for Mac users that were first seen on Logitech’s multiplatform mouse, the Master 3S. That includes double the DPI capability at 8,000, and a quieter click over the Master 3. Logitech says the mouse is 90% quiet than the regular Master 3. Other highlights include the ability to connect the mouse to three different Apple devices on macOS and iPadOS and switch between them with Easy-Switch. The mouse is rechargeable, too, and you’ll get 3 hours of use in 1 minute with quick charge.
With the Logitech Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse for Mac, you’re getting a much more comfy mouse for long-term use with a Mac product. It was developed in the company’s Ergo lab and lifts your hands to a 57-degree angle at a handshake position, relieving pressure on your wrists. This also helps keep your arm and upper body in a more natural position.
The Logitech MX Master 3S for Mac comes in at $100, and the Lift Vertical Ergonomic Mouse for Mac will cost $70. Both will be sold at Logitech.com and other retailers. You can also customize the MX Master 3S for Mac and the actions for the various buttons via the new Logi Options + app.
New Logitech Designed for Mac keyboards
Logitech’s new Designed for Mac keyboards also is quite similar to existing Logitech products. The most notable of the two is Logitech MX Mechanical Mini for Mac. This looks visually similar to the multiplatform MX Mechanical Mini, but the difference is that Logitech says it’s their first Mechanical keyboard optimized for Mac. You’ll notice that with the Mac layout for the keys at the lower left corner. The new Logitech K380 Multi-Device Bluetooth Keyboard for Mac, meanwhile, just has a new Blueberry color and keeps the classic scooped keys and ultra-quiet typing experience.
If you never used MX Mechanical Mini then on the Mac version you’ll notice the dedicated Mac layout with the CTRL, Option, and Command keys being where they would on a Mac keyboard. You’ll also get a low-profile setup that takes up less desk space. The keyboard comes in two color options, either Pale Gray or Space Gray, to match your Mac’s finish. There’s smart lighting on board so the backlights will turn on when needed, and adjust based on the brightness in the room around you. You’ll also be able to connect up to three different Mac or iPad devices and enjoy USB-C to USB-C charging. Note that, unlike the regular MX Mechanical Mini, there’s only one switch type on this Mac version. It is the brown, tactile quiet switches.
The Logitech MX Mechanical Mini for Mac costs $150. Logitech K380 Multi-Device Bluetooth Keyboard for Mac comes in at $40. You can assign tasks to certain keys on a per-app basis, and manage these keyboards with the new Logi Options + app.
All of these products are sustainable. There’s 54% recycled plastic in Lift for Mac, 47% for MX Mechanical Mini for Mac in Space Gray, 36% in MX Mechanical Mini for Mac in Pale gray, 27% for MX Master 3S for Mac in Space Gray, and 22% for MX Master 3S for Mac in Pale Gray. The aluminum in MX Mechanical Mini for Mac’s top case is also made with renewable energy rather than fossil fuels.

Apple’s iPhone 14 Pro Max and the Galaxy S22 Plus are different in many ways, but they share some similarities too. Both phones, for instance, have an OLED display with a bezel-less design and cutout towards the top. You also get a triple camera setup on both devices along with some other similarities including a similarly specced battery unit, almost the same physical dimensions, and more. As for which phone is better for you is entirely subjective and may come down to whether you prefer Android or iOS, but we’ll try to highlight some of the stark differences between the two in this Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max vs Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus comparison. Let’s dive in!
Both iPhone 14 Pro Max and Galaxy S22 Plus look a lot like their predecessors. You’d be hard-pressed to tell the difference between the new phones and their predecessors from the outside if it wasn’t for the new colors. The iPhone 14 Pro Max has a bit more individuality due to Apple’s new Dynamic Island, so we’d say it’s a bit more recognizable when the display is turned on. You’re not getting anything new in particular in terms of the design, so keep that in mind.
Both phones have glossy mid-frames and matte glass back panels that look equally elegant. We think the iPhone 14 Pro Max’s back design looks busier due to the massive camera island that’s been growing in size with each iteration of the phone. Samsung’s ‘Contour-Cut’ design that blends the camera island into the housing on the Galaxy S22 Plus looks a lot cleaner in comparison. The design, however, is entirely subjective, so we’ll leave it up to you to decide which one you like better.
As for the build quality, we’d say both the iPhone 14 Pro and the Galaxy S22 Plus are equally durable. The Galaxy S22 Plus comes with Gorilla Glass Victus Plus for both front as well as the back, whereas Apple is using Ceramic Shield glass on the front and a dual-ion glass for the back. Both phones also carry an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, so no differences there either. You may not need any additional protection for your phones, but we always recommend picking up good cases and screen protectors for your devices.
The iPhone 14 Pro Max and the Galaxy S22 Plus both have almost the same physical dimensions too. As you can see in the specs sheet, the iPhone 14 Pro Max is both taller and wider by a couple of millimeters, which we don’t think translates to a lot of difference in the real world. The Galaxy S22 Plus, however, is significantly lighter weighing in at 196 grams. Even with one of the best cases out there, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus will likely weigh less than an iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Moving over to the front, both phones in this comparison feature a bezel-less display with a cutout for the sensors on the top. This particular cutout is more noticeable on the iPhone 14 Pro Max than it is on the Galaxy S22 Plus due to Apple’s Face ID tech. But instead of hiding the cutout or the area surrounding it with a notch or wallpapers, Apple decided to build an entire UI around it and called it the Dynamic Island. Some people think it creates more problems than it solves, while others think it’s a fun and clever user interface that’s here to stay.
Looking past the cutout conundrum, you get two excellent-looking displays with crisp visuals and high refresh-rate support. The iPhone 14 Pro Max sports a 6.7-inch Super Retina XDR display with 2796 x 1290 pixel resolution while the Galaxy S22 Plus features a 6.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X with 1080 x 2340 pixel resolution. Both displays support a 120Hz refresh rate but the iPhone 14 Pro Max has higher peak brightness outdoors. Thanks to Apple’s new Display engine, the iPhone 14 Pro Max’s display peaks at 2,000 nits brightness outdoors. The Galaxy S22 Plus isn’t too far behind coming in at 1,750 nits.
Internal hardware
Apple’s iPhones have historically been more powerful than Android flagships, and that trend continues with the new iPhone 14 Pro too. The new iPhone 14 Pro Max features Apple’s new blazing fast A16 Bionic chip which is supposedly using two Everest (performance) cores and four Sawtooth (efficiency) cores in a Hexa-core setup. The Galaxy S22 Plus, on the other hand, is offered in both Snapdragon and Exynos flavors across the globe. Depending on where you buy the Galaxy S22 Plus, you’ll get it with either Samsung’s in-house Exynos 2200 or Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC.
We tested both Exynos and Snapdragon-powered Galaxy S22 Ultra and found the latter to be more powerful in almost every single scenario. We expect the same results to reflect in the case of the Galaxy S22 Plus too. That being said, the A16 Bionic is the most powerful chip in this comparison, and it’s not even close. In fact, the A16 Bionic is more powerful than the new Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 too. Here’s a quick look at the Geekbench 5 results to show you the difference between the single-core and the multi-core performance of the A16 Bionic versus the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 running inside a Galaxy Z Fold 4:
Apple A16 Bionic’s GeekBench score vs the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1’s score.
You may not notice a huge difference in performance when it comes to day-to-day usage, but the more powerful A16 Bionic certainly helps the iPhone 14 Pro Max do better in intensive tasks. The new iPhones only come with 6GB of RAM across the board compared to 8GB of memory inside the Galaxy S22 Plus, but we all can agree that iOS is significantly better at memory management. The base variants of both phones come with 128GB of storage but the Galaxy S22 Plus tops out at 256GB while the iPhone 14 Pro Max can be purchased with up to 1TB.
As for the batteries, the iPhone 14 Pro Max is said to pack a 4,323mAh unit which goes against the 4,500mAh unit inside the Galaxy S22 Plus. You’re likely to get more screen time between charges out of the iPhone 14 Pro Max due to the software optimization. It also depends on your day-to-day usage, so it’s not easy to predict which one’s going to last longer. But what we do know is that the Galaxy S22 Plus will charge faster as it supports up to 45W fast wired charging as opposed to 25W charging on the iPhone 14 Pro Max. Both phones also support wireless charging but you’ll have to bring your own charger, wired or wireless.
Cameras
Both the iPhone 14 Pro Max and the Galaxy S22 Plus, as we mentioned earlier, sport a triple camera setup at the back. In the case of the Galaxy S22 Plus, we’re looking at a 50MP f/1.8 main shooter with OIS, a 12MP f/2.2 ultra-wide camera with a 120-degree field-of-view, and a 10MP f/2.2 telephoto lens that offers 3x lossless zoom. Apple’s iPhone 14 Pro Max comes with what Apple calls a “Pro camera system” which includes a 48MP sensor with an ƒ/1.78 aperture, a 12MP f/2.2 ultra-wide, and a 12MP ƒ/1.78 telephoto shooter with 3x optical zoom. And just like the iPhone 13 Pro Max, the new iPhone 14 Pro models also feature a LiDAR depth sensor for portraits.
Selfies are handled by a 10MP shooter on the Galaxy S22 Plus whereas the iPhone 14 Pro Max captures selfies with a new 12MP TrueDepth selfie camera. We weren’t able to capture the same set of shots using both phones for this particular comparison, but we’re attaching individual samples taken from both devices below. Alternatively, you can also head over to our reviews of these phones — both linked earlier in this post — to find more samples along with other details.

Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus camera samples
Apple seems to have done a pretty good job overall with its cameras but it shines more on the video front. In addition to improving the Cinematic mode, Apple has also introduced the new Action Mode to help you capture the footage of a moving subject with better stabilization. You can see this new mode in action below:
Software
The iPhone 14 Pro Max ships with iOS 16 out of the box whereas the Galaxy S22 Plus comes with One UI 4.1 on top of Android 12. You’re bound to lean towards one or the other depending on the phone you’re coming from, and neither of these phones will likely convince you to switch. You may find Apple’s new Dynamic Island on the iPhone 14 Pro Max interesting, but we don’t think it’s enough to jump ships.
As for the software support, the Galaxy S22 Plus is promised four years of OS updates and five years of security updates. We don’t have an official confirmation on how long Apple plans to support the iPhone 14 Pro Max, but the iPhones have historically been great with updates so we’re counting on at least five years of software updates.
Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max vs Galaxy S22 Plus: Which phone should you buy?
The iPhone 14 Pro Max and Galaxy S22 Plus are both excellent phones that bring fantastic hardware along with a lot of great features to the table. So the purchase decision comes down to a few key factors including pricing. The Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus starts at $1,000 whereas the iPhone 14 Pro Max starts at $1,100 in the US. If you’re leaning toward a particular operating system then the choice is quite obvious here and we think you should pick the one you like.
But if you’re platform-agnostic and don’t mind spending an additional $100, then consider buying the iPhone 14 Pro Max. We think it handily beats the Galaxy S22 Plus with its raw performance and in the camera department. The Galaxy S22 Plus has a bigger battery with support for faster charging but the rest of the specs and features are closely matched by the iPhone, including the display and software support. Not to mention, the iPhone 14 Pro Max also works well with other Apple devices like a Mac or an iPad to provide a more cohesive experience, something which the Galaxy S22 can’t do yet.
That’s not to say the Galaxy S22 Plus is a bad phone. It’s easily one of the best Android phones out there right now that offers a lot of value for the money. It also routinely sees deals and discounts, making it a better choice for those with a tight budget. The iPhones don’t see a lot of discounts, but you can always check out our best iPhone 14 deals to see if you can snag a good carrier deal or some free accessories.
