In the latest revelation from leakster Ice Universe, the iPhone 16 Pro Max and Galaxy S25 Ultra may have more similarities than people expected.
The report says the two phones will be almost identical in size, from length, width, height, and even bezel size. The biggest difference between the Galaxy S25 Ultra and the iPhone 16 Pro Max is that it doesn't have Dynamic Island, giving the product a slight advantage in screen size.
Since we've heard a lot of rumors about the iPhone 16 Pro Max design and not much about the Galaxy S25 Ultra, this is actually an interesting piece of information. It gives us a little idea of what users can expect from Samsung's new flagship . Of course, neither phone is available for launch yet, so take this as a reference. Basically, if you're a Samsung fan and don't plan on buying Apple's upcoming iPhone 16 Pro Max, this is clearly a detail to pay more attention to.
An interesting detail regarding the iPhone 16 Pro Max is that it has very small screen bezels among all devices, while the Galaxy S25 Ultra's screen is said to be larger than the previous model, despite the overall size of the phone being smaller.
Ice Universe is one of the most accurate sources of information about upcoming devices, including Apple and Samsung, so sharing the similarities between the two phones is sure to turn some heads, especially if you think Samsung is copying the iPhone 16. However, the difference in the Dynamic Island layout compared to the Infinity-O style is noticeable.
Remember that the Galaxy S25 Ultra was released quite a while after the iPhone 16 Pro Max, so Samsung has plenty of room for tweaks. Also, both models have been in development for a while, so the similarities are simply a result of industry standards.
The latest leaks about the iPhone 16 Pro Max from leaker Ice Universe suggest that Apple may have reached the limits of smartphone screen bezel design. An image believed to be a screen protector for the iPhone 16 Pro Max has revealed an extremely thin bezel, just 1.15mm, surrounding the entire screen.

According to previous rumors, Apple asked OLED panel suppliers to reduce the size of the screen bezels on the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max, which led to some difficulties in the production process. However, it seems that these problems have been resolved and the launch of the iPhone 16 will not be delayed.
The narrowing of the screen bezels allows Apple to increase the screen size on the iPhone 16 Pro to 6.3 inches and the iPhone 16 Pro Max to 6.9 inches, while maintaining the overall size of the device. This is a significant improvement in design, bringing a better viewing experience to users.
