TG AI phone face to face
This article is part of the face of our AI phone. If you are interested in our other comparisons, see the link below.
One of the most impressive AI features on the phone is the ability to produce images. Although there are legitimate arguments about AI and art, the fact cannot be avoided that phones can create some beautiful impressive designs.
With this, the quality of the AI features such as the image generation can vary largely among the quality and ability tools. Keeping this in mind, we are checking some of the best phones here in the Tom Guide that offers the best experience in every AI feature.
In keeping with this, I grabbed my iPhone 15 Pro Max, with the Samsung Galaxy S25 and Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, to see if the best image generation offers. So let’s see what these phones are able to make, and who deserves the crown of the winner.

Rules
The focus of this comparison is focused on the ancestral AI image tool of each phone, which means I will use Apple’s image playground, Samsung’s drawing assist and Google Pixel Studio.
In addition, when I am using the last generation of the iPhone, there is no difference in the images compared to the iPhone 16 Pro Max or any Apple Intelligence compared to the iPhone.
In some scenarios, devices will not be able to produce some images, possibly due to some basic principles on the appropriate indicator. In such cases, a phone call will be ineligible for this period.
Hint: A skeleton in the suit

First indicator, I wanted to see how the devices can make several layers as well as handle bones, which can be complicated. However, the Pixel Studio refused to produce the image. So the first round has come down for only two rival iPhones and the galaxy.
The iPhone image is the most complex background, but the original skeleton lacks a lot of details. At a glance, you can see that the Rebakage falls into the coat for some reason, while the skull teeth are messed up. Meanwhile, the drawing assisted version has more detail, which has a significant layer and a very realistic look skull.
Winner: Galaxy S. 25
Cympt: The strange goblin hidden in a forest

My next syllable, I wanted to see how the phones handled to create a detailed picture, hiding the elements inside, instead of putting the phones in front and center.
It seemed that the iPhone had the most problems in this concept. Although Goblin is definitely monster, it is neither strange nor very well hidden. Meanwhile, the image of Google Pixel was certainly strange, and it managed to add more than one goblin, but once again, it seems that it struggles with the hidden side.
Drawing Assist’s attempt shows a strange -looking tree and manages to hide the goblin in its roots. I really like the use of shading all over the whole image, which is an area that improves Samsung.
Conquest: Galaxy S. 25
Prampot: Child on a ship

With this indicator, I wanted to see if the AI could put the characters in a major element, in this case, a ship.
The Galaxy phone chose animals on the ship instead of children. It is stylish and offers some good shading, but not for which I said. Apple’s image playground worked, but to get the desired result, after I tried several different inputs, including a person’s different AI-influential image. This is definitely the most detailed role in any of the three -born images, but the background is over -confused and does not really sell the idea of the ship.
The Pixel phone presented the closest to what I asked, and managed to make a picture with many small details. For example, it seems that he has shown children like all siblings, while something has also developed something that resembles Pixer poster.
Winner: Google Pixel 9 Pro XL
Cympt: T -Rex on a boat

This is easily my favorite gesture, as it allows the phone to display its explanatory qualifications to how far they can fit the big dinosaurs into the boat. Google Pixel, which uses a very lifetime T -rax, but lacks dynamic movement, and dinosaurs only appear in the icon instead of a part of it.
Meanwhile, the iPhone went for a more cartoon design, which had some good -looking water around the boat. But unfortunately, it also shows some general generation mistakes that we often see in AI art. The dinosaur (which is at least visible to the T-RX) has ended with four disadvantages and two tails.
Finally, we have a Samsung Galaxy, which has also gone for a more realistic path. However, the big difference is that it managed to make T -Rex as part of the picture, rather than imposing it from above. Even if the arms go down and look a bit strange.
Winner: Galaxy S. 25
Prampot: The old man looks sad while his wife is laughing

Final icon, I wanted to see how the phone dealt with photographs with two charters with different emotions in the display. This was the first time that Samsung would not play the ball, the Galaxy S25 failed to produce anything.
Apple’s iPhone is currently limited to being able to produce only one person in an image, but it managed to make the old man a proper grief. However, the character’s hands are completely off, with the strange length of the fingers and arm.
Meanwhile, the pixel was able to create a picture with a wonderful blurry to help focus and focus. However, for some reason, he showed a pair of metal roots in the old man’s forehead.
Winner: Google Pixel 9 Pro XL
Word
For most parts, I would say that none of the phones offers a foolproof image breed, at least not yet. However, as we have come to expect Apple Intelligence, the image playground is certainly the weakest at this location. However, when the iOS 26 launches, we should see the improvement here, as well as the only phone that created a picture for five types.
Google’s Pixel Studio offers some good, but it struggles with more complex subjects. However, the recent increase in the ability to create a lifetime helps to remain separate from others.
Therefore, I have to classify Samsung’s drawing Assist as a winner. Although some of its created images are different in quality, it was still the most permanent.
However, the art is completely sapphire, so I want to know about your idea: which of your favorite, or do you think AI should be completely offended?
