Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Takedown: 5 Key Features Missing from the Competition

Honor Launches Scathing Attack on Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra
Comparative advertising – the ultimate thriller! And China’s Honor, it seems, is more than happy to jump into the ring and take aim at Samsung. After apologizing to Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 owners for their "let down" with a "chunky" folding phone, Honor is now highlighting what it claims are five key features missing from Samsung’s latest offering, the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
So, What are These Supposedly Superior Features?
- Magic Portal for Seamless App Access: enables quick access to over 150+ third-party apps with a simple circle gesture, streamlining tasks across various categories.
- AI Super Zoom for Richer Details: using cloud AI, Honor’s AI Super Zoom delivers superior image quality for long-distance shots beyond 30x, capturing far clearer and more detailed photos compared to Samsung’s Space Zoom.
- Stunning Portraits and Fast Capture: featuring the industry’s first on-device portrait large model, the Magic 7 Pro delivers striking portrait details with AI Enhanced Portrait and Harcourt Portrait. Its HD Super Burst and AI Motion Sensing further solidify Honor’s leadership in fast capture technology.
- Unmatched Durability and Charging: the Magic 7 Pro boasts IP68 and IP69 water and dust resistance, 100W wired SuperCharge, and 80W wireless SuperCharge. It also features the industry’s first dual 3D biometric security system with 3D Ultrasonic Fingerprint Unlocking and 3D To Face Locking.
Needless to say, Honor’s confidence is palatable. Have they got this right? Time will tell when we put these features to the test in a full review process.
