While iOS feels buttery smooth already, Android at up to 120 frames per second is heaven. Apple didn't go for a high refresh rate for the iPhone 12 series, so you're stuck at 60Hz. The iPhone 12 packs a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display with a slightly sharper 2532x1170 resolution. You can also lock the S21's refresh rate at 60Hz if you want to save on battery life. First up, Samsung's 6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED display, with its FHD resolution of 2400x1080, sports an adaptive refresh rate that can range from 48Hz all the way up to 120Hz for ultra smooth scrolling and gameplay (where supported). It's getting into the finer details where we see some differences. From the casual observer's perspective, the displays on either phone are pretty close to equal. Both are OLED screens with punchy colors and deep blacks, and they have great brightness ranges. You will not be disappointed with the displays on either the Galaxy S21 or the iPhone 12.

The S21 keeps the hole punch cutout for the front camera in the display, which is easily ignored once you start using the phone.
Samsung's biggest change with the Galaxy S21 design is the Contour Cut camera housing, which aesthetically integrates its trio of cameras into the chassis of the phone. Some of my colleagues prefer the iPhone's flat edges I don't, but this comes down to personal preference. This won't be to everyone's liking, and we are torn internally on whether we like it or not. Similarly, the iPhone 12 looks a lot like its predecessors, except that Apple decide to forgo the rounded edges and use sharp corners instead. The Galaxy S21's design is an iteration on the one we saw with the Galaxy S20, just with some refinements. The differences are almost imperceptible in real world use. The iPhone 12, meanwhile is 5.78 x 2.81 x 0.29 inches and 5.78 ounces. The former measures 5.97 x 2.8 x 0.31 inches with a weight of 5.96 ounces.
Looking at strict measurements, the Galaxy S21 and iPhone 12 are very similar in size and weight.
