I had 15 Pro max last year, went back to pixel 8 pro, fell for hype of S24 Ultra this year, sent it back disappointed, bought the Pixel 9XL Pro XL. Awesome phone, best camera on the market, I wasn’t even tempted by the iPhone this year, and from the videos I’ve watched, I’m glad I wasn’t! Cheers from Devon. ❤
If the Pixel UI looked a bit more mature I would consider the Pixel. iPhone is just very reliable and consistent under any circumstances. I had the Pixel 7 Pro and it wasn’t great with lot of issues. Switched to Samsung which offers great performance and software. This year I switched to iPhone and although it’s a bit boring, the experience is very good and because I like to film a lot the iPhone is the better choice for me.
If you don't mind iOS, iPhone seems to be a great option between Pixel and Samsung, it has great power similar or more powerful than Samsung and also a great camera similar to the pixel, with much better video capabilities. Samsung lacking a great camera , and pixel lacking reliable power of either snapdragon or A18 pro chip.
What is wrong with all of y'all idiots calling these large phones compact?? These phones don't fit in people's pockets properly, so since when is that compact?
1mm of titanium 30$ worth over a aluminum chassis and ceramic shield is marketing name victus 2 is just as strong and hard The face recognition on pixel is safe enough to bank with without the massive pill hole in the screen The pixel can hit 3000 nits 1000 more than the iphone Yet reviewer tech spurt said iPhone 16 pro struggled with games missing frames and jittery
Yeah. small, that would be the iphone mini. Wait, that was pulled after the 13 series. Now the standard is the Max's, XL's and ultra's...6.7 - 6.9. hmmmm, maybe 6.1 - 6.3 is small???
The only reason why I'm happy that these iPhone 16 Pros were released, they helped stop Google's 🦬💩 that all youtubers (especially Westerners) had started repeating like a mantra "Power is useless, optimization is key", well, now it turns out that the iPhone 16 Pro are overpowered (at least 2 years ahead of the Pixel 9 Pro), super optimized, especially has an 🍏 at the back 😈, and this for the same price, or even less in certain markets and circumstances, this will clearly slow down Pixel 9s sales in the West, and elsewhere (especially in Asia), the Pixel 9s were never even an option to begin with 🤧 Frankly, this Apple-like 🍏 logic "offering very little hardware but selling very expensive under the guise of magical software optimization" should not prosper on Android 🤧 Ps: iPhone 16s Pro are clearly better smartphones and deals than Pixel 9s Pro, however, they are not the best on the market. 🚶🏽♂️ 🚶🏽♂️ 🚶🏽♂️
