Pros and Cons

realme GT7

Strengths

Realme understands how to keep cost under control to create a Flagship killer and this phone is their latest Masterpiece
The gt7 pro screen uses Samsung's latest equal square olad plus panel, which is usually used in foldable phones, thanks to the poess technology which means that the polarizer has been removed, the brightness has been increased dramatically and the power consumption has been reduced as well
High performance has always been the main setting point of the GT series this year's Snapdragon 8 Elite is particularly powerful so the gt7 pro has dipped into the water both the benchmark scores and a game experience are much better than the previous gen
The 6,500 mAh battery puts all phones so far behind the longer it use the bigger the gap between it and other phones will be, 120W wi charging will get it to full battery in about half an hour
Photography is definitely not something the gt7 pro excels at as I said its telephoto camera compared to the GT5 pro has also been downgraded but the new sensor is not really weak

Weaknesses

The telephoto camera is downgraded to IMX a882 and Ultra wide camera is budget phone level, which makes it not as good as other flexure phones
While it's charging disappeared and USB is still 2.0, these are the things that make it not not as good as other flexure phones on the bright side it has upgraded all the major features
The viewing angle has gotten worse but I think it's acceptable as it doesn't really affect the experience that much
Unfortunately our monitoring program went wrong there was no way to accurately measure its gaming power consumption, so estimating it based on percentage of battery the gt7 pro also takes the lead
Photography is not something the gt7 pro excels at, and the noise control on the telephoto camera is something terrible

Samsung Galaxy S25+

Strengths

The Snapdragon 8 Elite has shown off its muscles when it comes to multi-core score as well as the graphical performance.
Great investment due to long software support up to six-seven years.
Strong RAM management with 12 gigs of RAM, able to handle heavy tasks and apps.
Quick browsing experience with websites like phonearena.com and S mobile.com loading quickly.
Smooth scrolling and refreshing on various apps and websites, including Reddit, YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram.
Good image capturing capabilities with High megapixel camera.
Longevity in terms of hardware and software performance.
Great competition to Apple's iPhone 16 Pro Max

Weaknesses

Not perfect RAM management, with occasional app refreshes on the iPhone.
The s25 Ultra did not show significant improvement in video rendering speed compared to previous generations.
Occasional app refreshes and UI changes on the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
Limited Adobe Rush application performance compared to the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
RAM management struggles with multiple apps open, occasionally requiring app refreshes.
Less RAM than Apple's iPhone 16 Pro Max (8 gigs vs. 12).
The s25 Ultra did not perform significantly better in terms of multitasking and app handling compared to the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
Occasional UI changes on the iPhone 16 Pro Max, disrupting smooth performance.
