100% of the balanced scoring weight is supported by shared sources. 12 shared fields.
These are relative specification scores, not lab ratings. Price, weight, refresh rate, storage, and wireless charging count. Camera resolution, chipset names, and battery capacity don’t establish quality, speed, or endurance.
How the score is calculated
- Reference price (USD): 30% weight · iPhone 17 Pro has the favorable value
- Weight: 20% weight · Samsung Galaxy S26+ has the favorable value
- Maximum refresh rate: 20% weight · Equal
- Storage in compared configuration: 20% weight · Equal
- Wireless charging: 10% weight · Equal
Each numeric factor awards a proportional share to each phone; lower price and weight are preferred. Missing factors are excluded, and remaining weights are normalized. Scores require 70% weighted coverage and eight shared fields. Display size and operating system are personal choices. Reference prices may be launch MSRP; check current offers before buying.
Side-by-side specifications
