The best screens of 2025, category by category

In 2025The technological competition was superficial: it was no longer just about the speed of the chips, but about the fidelity of each individual pixel in everyday use. Laboratories and reference media compiled a “Screen Tournament” They examined cell phones, watches, tablets and televisions until there were two finalists per category. Here are the winners of each category and the technical reasons that they carry.

The selection criteria include: glow extreme, the loyalty chromatic, the fluent in motion and Efficiency Energy. These products, leaders in every field, mark the north of the industry: Some opt for brighter panels, others go for deeper blacks, and some add user-friendly reading modes. All in all, visual excellence is possible without concessions High-end prices.

The ring leaves behind high-voltage duels and the finalists are determined after tests in a screen tournament. When it comes to mobile phones, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is compared with the iPhone 17 Pro Max. On the wrist, the Huawei Watch GT 6 Pro competes with the Amazfit T-Rex 3 Pro. In the living room, Samsung Neo QLED QN70F challenges the TCL C6K QD-MiniLED, both 55 inches, for the throne. When it comes to tablets, the iPad Air with M3 chip is opposite the Galaxy Tab S10.

These crosses are the result of extensive testing and Rankings of specialized websites such as DisplayMate, AnTuTu, DXOMARK and RTINGS, which measured maximum brightness, color fidelity, fluidity in fast scenes, power efficiency and system polish. These results ranked the final table and determined the elite screens for 2025, where every tenth of quality counted.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and iPhone 17 Pro Max are two mobile behemoths: emerging icons, ubiquitous on every ranking and every scale. Equally loved and discussed, with adoring fans and vocal critics, their leaps in AI and hardware don’t follow trends: they dictate them, and every release forces the industry to do so imitate, accelerate and redefine What is a global luxury flagship?

The iPhone 17 Pro Max had a slight edge in performance and AI: the A19 Pro chip provided stable performance without heat loss, and the Neural Engine powered Apple Intelligence with summaries, editing, and local searches. Benchmarks from Nanoreview and Appleismo were just above that for CPU, GPU, thermal efficiency and long-term consistency, with single-digit differences.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra responded with a limited lead in cameras and construction. The 200-megapixel main sensor, 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor and 5x periscope offered more creative scope than the competing 4x/8x telephoto, especially in mixed light. The titanium casing provides extra strength, with anti-reflective Gorilla Armor 2 on the front, Victus 2 on the back and IP68 rated for durability.

With almost the same score: Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra turned the balance in his favor for its more flexible look and harder materials, albeit with a minimal edge. Reviews from TechRadar, Wired and Xataka highlighted better true zoom, sharper macro and a less reflective panel, in addition to drops tolerated by Armor 2. The iPhone 17 Pro Max shined in terms of AI and everyday fluidity, but had to give up in terms of recording and durability.

Huawei Watch GT 6 Pro and Amazfit T-Rex 3 Pro shine at the top of the wearables: with up to 20 days of autonomy Real, intense OLED screens, full-fledged sensors and armored cases left heavyweights like Garmin or Apple Watch behind. And it does it in style, thanks to the wide compatibility that lets it shine with Android and iPhone alike, without any bindings or limited functions.

The Huawei case (46mm) combines aerospace-grade titanium and sapphire crystal, a combination that resists drops and scratches. With mood detection, health analysis and continuous cardiovascular monitoring. The Health app remains a reference: it collects data precisely and displays it in clear, detailed and visually very attractive panels. Autonomy: 21 days.

The Amazfit T-Rex 3 Pro replicated the rugged formula with a Grade 5 titanium case, sapphire crystal, and military-grade certification—a trio that makes it nearly indestructible. The 48mm AMOLED display reaches up to 3,000 nits for viewing in full sun. The battery performs up to 25 days and features a flashlight with high performance and economy modes designed for night training and demanding trekking trips.

The closure was tight: Amazfit T-Rex 3 Pro Connectivity was imposed hardly wider. It combined Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, set routes with multi-band GPS and six constellations and provided 32 GB internally for traveling without a cell phone. Reviews from TechRadar and TrailRunningReview highlighted this independence and additional autonomy compared to the Huawei Watch GT 6 Pro, albeit with a more voluminous design.

Samsung Neo QLED and TCL Quantum Mini LED occupied the Olympus of home entertainment. Its high refresh rates, sophisticated streaming platforms, bottleneck-free connectivity and immersive sound made the living room a premier space for gaming and cinema, ready for the next decade. They don’t just compete on brilliance: each innovation sets the visual and aural course that the rest imitates.

In the fight for the 55 inches, Samsung Neo QLED QN70F uses mini-LED with quantum dots for even contrast and high brightness without washing out the colors. Its AI processor refines details in old signals. TCL C6K QD-MiniLED proposes a similar recipe at 144 Hz for sports and games, with strong light peaks. In the shade, Samsung reduces halos better and keeps the scene cleaner even at night.

On the furniture, the QN70F looks thinner and more sober, with a metal frame and a screen that is less reflective; The SolarCell control charges with light and avoids batteries. The C6K is a little thicker, but comes with Google TV, ONKYO sound and a comfortable classic controller. Both add Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. In Argentina, Samsung costs more and TCL offers a more accessible high-end channel.

The winner is Samsung Neo QLED because provides the most consistent image: Brightness works both during the day and in dark rooms, anti-glare helps on windows, AI scaling cleans up HD sources, and mini-LED control prevents spots around subtitles. The TCL C6K compensates with 144 Hz and a better price, although the uniformity decreases in black scenes. Samsung wins the contract by a narrow margin.

iPad Air (11″) and Galaxy Tab S10 (10.9″) consolidated as the Executive tablets Top of the line: raw power – Snapdragon 8 and M3 – for intensive multitasking, AI that speeds up transcription and search, sharp and fast screens, long-lasting batteries with fast charging and Wi-Fi, and accessories that make it one an ultra-thin notebook. The message is clear: Complete office on one page.

The iPad Air with M3 chip uses Liquid Retina IPS: precise colors, good HDR and enough brightness for reading and drawing, but moderate contrast in dark scenes. The Galaxy Tab S10 relies on Dynamic AMOLED 2X with deep blacks and 120 Hz, which make videos and games smoother. Potentially, the M3 has the edge when it comes to creative tasks; The Tab S10 features Galaxy AI and excellent tactile response.

In the hand, the iPad Air is lighter and thinner, with an aluminum body. The keyboard and Apple Pencil are sold separately. The Galaxy Tab S10 is also metallic and includes the S Pen and, in several packages, a keyboard. With USB-C and Wi-Fi they are neck and neck, although Samsung adds microSD and DeX mode. In Argentina there is the iPad Air M3 (128 GB). 1.2 million and Tab S10, with S Pen is less than a million.

The winner depends on the usage, but e.g Power and important apps The iPad Air with M3 chip prevails: it supports video editing, illustration and multitasking with ease, iPadOS offers a creative catalog that is second to none. The Galaxy Tab S10 reacts with AMOLED 2X, 120 Hz, S Pen included, microSD and a better price-accessory ratio. When it comes to creative profiles, Apple is a few pixels ahead.
