Reviewing Google's Pixel 10 Pro XL vs Samsung's Galaxy S25 Ultra, to see which has the best camera tech, gaming grunt, battery life and beyond. I've been testing the Pixel 10 Pro XL as my full-time phone for a week now so here's it compared with one of the biggest (and best?) Androids of 2025. Now, camera fans will likely be happy enough with either of these smartphones, which offer a selection of manual controls. The Pixel 10 Pro XL in particular is best for point and shoot situations however, producing natural shots. Even night photography and videography is possible (helped by the Video Boost feature). Gamers will want to grab the Samsung S25 Ultra instead. This is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite (For Galaxy), and offers impressive performance for Wuthering Waves etc. Meanwhile the Pixel 10 Pro XL sports Google's Tensor G5, which struggles with demanding titles. Only optimised games like PubG and Call of Duty are recommended, although Genshin Impact runs okay. Battery life is excellent on both the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and Google's Pixel 10 Pro XL. You've got all-day life no worries, although charging is less than fast. At least you have the latest Qi 2 charging support, unlike many other flagship phones. So which 2025 big-shot are you most tempted by? Let us know who won in the Pixel 10 Pro XL vs Samsung S25 Ultra battle below!
