OnePlus 11 vs Pixel 7 Pro: Tough call, but there's a CLEAR winner! 

Buy the Pixel 7 Pro: howl.me/cjpH3W3dpjs Buy the OnePlus 11: amzn.to/46qisIE

I'd take 80W wired over 5-15W wireless 100/100 times.

What US reviewers don't understand while talking about the wireless charging not being there on the OP 11 is that the US isn't even a primary market to OnePlus or Oppo. Their major userbase is in India, China & South-east Asia....and based on feedback received from those users, warp charging is more a priority than slow wireless charging...I think this a good move from OnePlus to save on cost and give the end user a more affordable smartphone

People who think wireless charging is really important have nothing else to do on life beside sit on same couch

This time OnePlus did their thing with the 11, kinda reminds me of the 7 pro.. Battery life is GREAT, beautiful screen, super fast charging, I could care less about wireless charging if I'm able to charge to 100% in less than 30 mins...

Please stop with this mistake! The Pixel 7 pro can only charge up to 23w! Not 30w. The charger (that you don't get in the box) is 30w

Clear win for Oneplus 11 for me. The generational gap in performance and fast charging is enough. And the selfie camera at the left side. That's the place the selfie camera should be. I don't care about wireless charging which is barely used in our country. 80w charger is included and it's also cheaper.

Short summary: OnePlus 11 wins in every category... but he is a pixel fanboy so he is spinning everything so the pixel is the "winner". This is the prime example why people tend to not believe most of the "reviews" from phones on youtube. GG

Funny how nearly every reviewer makes such a big stink about the lack of wireless charging on the OnePlus 11. When Apple took years to finally add wireless charging to their products, they would always say it was just gimmicky and slow. Hmmmm

When you can charge your phone from 0-100 in less than 30mins you don't really need wireless charging

WIRELESS CHARGING IS WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY WHEN U HAVE SUCH A POWERFUL CHARGER

For office work, wireless charging is ok, but for running ones... fast charging is perfect and makes sense in this today world.

Great comparo. Thanks for pointing out the middling radio performance with the Exynos modem. This is the sole reason I haven't gone pixel. I wish more reviewers would point out this core functionality that's impacted by modem choice.

A pixel 7 pro user here. I have never found a phone with as many bugs as this pixel! I wonder why nobody talks about it.

6:11 I'm a bit confused as to how the Pixel's telephoto camera gets an "easy win" here? The OnePlus looks brighter and a lot sharper and clearer in that clock photo..

So close ... But I would call the versatile OP11 a clear winner here given the price and overall performance!

Love your work Alex but the title says there is a clear winner and then you state a narrow win for Pixel? I was waiting for one of them to get hammered. 😆

Why did pixel win? after seeing this video I realized one plus won in many areas so I wonder how pixel won. It's strange 🤔

I still don't understand how slow wireless charging is such a big or wanted feature... You still need a cable, a plug and a device to put your phone on... When with wired you can get 80 watts plus with one less item. Makes no sense. Plus the charger is IN THE BOX for less money.

I own a Oneplus 9 for 2 years now, and honestly I've never used or missed wireless charging. So for me is not such a huge deal.

xda dev shouldn't be worried too much about software lol. CLEAR winner is OP11 with the stability of cell service, battery life and efficiency alone. Both phones are BL unlockable and software dumps available so development isn't an issue. IMO, I have always seen Oneplus phones get great Custom rom and software bug support. Google's Processor is just garbage because of Samsung making the SOC

I donno why these reviewers make a big deal about wireless charging. If you can get a full day of charge in 15 mins then why would you even need wireless charging?

OnePlus will be updated until 2027, pixel only 2025. Not only this, OnePlus is prepared for a better longetivity in terms of performance

my last one plus has lasted me almost 6 years ive gone with one plus again cause even though the one plus 6t still feels fast the battery feels like its dying faster and their is performance issues when launching some demanding apps, one plus 11 pretty much topples all the stats and is future proof

In India the base one plus 11 is cheaper than the regular pixel 7 , at that price it's a wash if you are ok with the software on the one plus .

I am still on the OnePlus 6 since May 2018. But my phone is beginning to show its age!

Thank you for a great side-by-side evaluation. One feature you did not mention, which is of paramount importance to veterans of OnePlus is the slider, which instantly puts the phone into do not disturb mode. For hardcore users, this slider is essential.

I can't understand how Pixel narrowly loses in most of the categories but is an overall winner at the end.

Bought the Pixel 7 when it first came out, sold it again, to heavy / big just bought the Samsung S23, WOW what a phone, light, fast and super camera, I have fiound my "forever" phone

I couldn't care less about wireless charging! I switch my phone off overnight, but it auto ons when my alarm goes off. I plug it in whilst I do my teeth and get sorted, washed & dressed etc, and when done ready to go downstairs for breakfast, it's at 75-85% full from a start of 10ish%. If I need it full, by the time I've made my toast it's finished. What would I pick? I haven't decided yet! Decision points are on OS updates. If Google matched OnePlus and Samsung with 4 years OS & 5 security updates, it would be the Pixel! My current phone is 5years old this June, it's creaking and does unexpected so I know it's time to change. Do I wait for the Oppo Find X6? I'm not sure I can last that long!

Let's admit it. I own a pixel 7 pro, and I definitely prefer my old Xiaomi Mi11 to it. If you can handle the software, which is still quite good, the Oneplus is better, especially if there are custom ROMs for it

I bought the Pixel 7 Pro (12GB/128GB) and waiting on my OnePlus 11 (16gb/256gb) to arrive... The reason I ordered the OP11 is due to it fully supports Dual-SIM along with setting a custom ringtone for each SIM in OxygenOS. Sure it doesn't have Wireless Charging but that's no big deal for me, went back to carrying a OnePlus 7T waiting for the OP11. If you rely heavily on Dual-SIM Support - the OP11 wins hands-down.

Upgraded my iPhone x and Samsung m32 to OnePlus 11 8gb and the difference is remarkable. I got pixel 6 also, but OnePlus 11 has killed the competition this time. The speed is superb and camera is too good. But what I liked most is 100W charging, 20 mins full charge 😄 neither Samsung, Google and Apple is offering that.

2.31 Says there is no difference in performance in day to day use. Meanwhille one plus 11 loaded instagram twice as fast XD

How would you compare these two phones to the S23plus or the S23ultra? How would you compare these to the Oneplus 10ro?

I just got my Oneplus 11 and love it.

I had the pixel 7 pro for a week or two and sent it back the phones performance generally was meh compared to an older s21 .

In the comparison, he definitely said pixel is the winner personally to him: Cameras are more consistent, software is more fluid and responsive and most of all, certified tried-and-true software updates. You indians need to stop overreacting just because your favorite phone loses in his preferred areas. You like it, just do it, buy it and no one said anything.

Lol, my 3.5 years old OP 7 pro (which is still used to play 2 - 3 hours of games, 6-10 hours of screen on time on daily basic) still delivering great performance handling some heavy games with ease. If you are concerning about longevity, even though 7 pro stopped getting updates and lost his flagship crown to the younger generations, its performance is still above the today's mid-range phones. But how's pixel 5 doing right now...?

Do people really take 4K selfie video? I mean if they just upload to everyday socials like Instagram, Facebook or TikTok, they limit the videos to 1080p

The pixel 7 pro is slow AF at charging my ultra 22 is way faster and the OnePlus 10t charges in 17 minutes

Using OnePlus 11 for a while now the only drawback is a bit weak image processing

After being 1 of the few schmucks that bought a pixel 6 pro, I WILL NEVER OWN another pixel phone EVER AGAIN. My last favorite phone? Considering since I had it I also owned a s22 ultra (which I thought was the worst phone ever until I picked up a pixel 6 pro) I miss my OnePlus 6t. That phone was a savage.

Pixel wins in every category of photos and videos, the colours are real and have more details in low light to. OnePlus is charging faster, has more powerful and more eficient procesor. Well, you chose what you need for you.

Who gets the better cellular reception? I currentku have a pixel 7 pro and the fact that I have to set it to LTE to get half decent service is irritating

To add to this review you also get free pro wireless ear buds worth £179 for the oneplus 11

Nice video but, a little off base when it comes to the charging. First off, wireless charging is something that OnePlus only offers in their pro variance. They have never offered it in their base unit or later in the year in their tea variant. However, this year OnePlus is not manufacturing a pro variant. Instead, they have elected to get back to their roots by manufacturing flagship killers rather than a pro flagship. That is why they have dumped so much technology into the 11 and included a quad HD display. To that end, this video is a lot like trying to compare an Apple to an orange. Specifically, the OnePlus 11 is a flagship killer and the Google pixel 7 Pro is a flagship. As far as I'm concerned, wireless charging is nothing more than a gimmick. Why would I care about having wireless charging when I can have 80 watt fast charging? By definition, a flagship killer pairs away gimmicky features such as wireless charging in favor of processing speed, advanced memory and incredible charging technology. Combine that with amazing build quality and offer it at a lower price than the competition and you have a true flagship killer. Obviously, this kind of a device is mostly geared towards the superuser.

It's pathetic connecting my Pixel 7 Pro to charge from almost dying and then it says 1HR + to finish charging. Especially coming from a One Plus device.

I have a Pixel 7 Pro and I have had 5 Oneplus phones for years. Not one of them got slowER after a year of use. The longevity of Oneplus phones is unmatched. They have ufs 4.0 storage, ddr5x, more ram, an X3 core, not x1 like the GTensor2... The Pixel is a smarter phone, not a faster phone, especially not in the long run. Oneplus software, even with this OPPO bullshit, is imo not likely enough to decompensate the faster hardware

My last OnePlus phone was the 8 pro, which was flaky at best with Verizon (often got no service and never got 5G). How is the OnePlus 11 with Verizon 5G ultra wideband?

I'd choose the OnePlus 11 over the Pixel 7.

I don't understand why anyone would give a s*it about wireless charging.

How can it it be a narrow win for the pixel if OP does almost everything better?

@7:01 What's up with the color on your sweater on the Pixel 7 Pro? The shot looks nice until you notice it and suddenly you are a walking JPEG...

OnePlus 11 is better. Pixel offers monthly security patch while OP does bimonthly and camera is better on pixel. Everything else is OnePlus hands down

Pixels historically has poor track record and its generations slower performance wise.

S23 - hold my beer (almost 8hrs of avg screen on time)

4 major updates ❤

The best use case for wireless charging is passively charging your phone throughout the day because it charges slow. Plus this kind of charging can wreck batteries over time. 80W-100W charging eliminates the need for that by charging up to 50% in 10 minutes, so it's a net win in my book.

TOTALLY agree about the OnePlus 11 brightness. it's frustrating. the screen defaults to too dark. Regardless, I love the 11. The battery and charging is amazing.

Wireless or not, you still need a cable don't you? Fast charging every day all week long

I had the pixel 7 pro. It has some really good features, but it's nowhere near a flagship imo. I left oneplus after the 9 pro let down and the 10 lost its slider.

OnePlus 11 has nothing to fear here. I would only choose the Pixel 7 if the camera was my top priority. Honestly, this whole "software experience" thing is corporate garbage, because it feeds into the idea that it's something important and that company A does a subjective thing objectively better than company B. I just don't agree with this idea. OnePlus 11 wins because of its superior performance and battery. It also comes at a cheaper price and has global availability by its side. I like how tech reviewers don't apply the global availability caveat when it comes to Western made phones.

The only areas the OnePlus 11 wins is Fast charging and processor other than that, in real world use the Pixel 7 pro wins

My OnePlus 7 pro with gcam was an epic device and still strong. I do like some of the exclusives the pixel has and there's no reason they don't allow one device assistant and speech recognition like they promised because it's not all down to npu chips because they were supposed to bring it to earlier pixels. Their bread and butter is search so thats a cheap dk move. OnePlus 11 with a good gcam is probably the easy winner plus pixel palm rejection is terrible.

Seriously, you're saying the lack of wireless charging is more important than fast charging. Good God you really need to check into the nearest asylum.

Wireless charging with 50watt is only available using oneplus wireless charges on 10pro and op 12(recently launched) other than that in normal other branded fast wireless charger oneplus 10 pro and oneplus 12 doesnot support 50 watt wireless charging it only goes upto 10watts which will take around 4hourd to charge the battery... Which is bonkers... Also with the great battery life of OP 12 and OP 12 its not required unlike others

Pixel just paid more for marketing campaign which we can clearly see above... cheaply made phone with average specs in almost every comparison on YT it must be coincidence :)

OnePlus literally charges in 20 to 25 minutes And brother is complaining how they didn't add a wireless charging option that takes almost 1.5 hours to charge What is happening to people

stop praising wireless charging (should be called induction charging. there’s still a cable, just not plugged to the phone). It’s a nighmare of shitty efficiency.

I'm loving the Pixel 7 Pro in every aspect but the battery drain in idle... Do you think the future updates will fix the issue? I strongly hope so

I bet the OnePlus camera housings don't start exploding like all the ones on the 7 and 7 pro

Small update for anyone who plans to get op11 atleast in india the green or pink lines are back

For me is the pixel. Because of software support.

This must be a joke. Wireless charging, abysmally SLOW wireless charging ar that, is NOTHING compared to Oneplus 100 watt charging! Get real. Not to mention, cheesy companies like google/ samsung/ apple don't even GIVE you a charger in the FIRST PLACE-- wireless or not! Oneplus GIVES YOU A 100 WATT CHARGER-- and you STILL complain. This is fishy as hell...

OnePlus 11 is way better than the Pixel 7 Pro. Tried the Pixel and it was awful so I returned it. Terrible battery life, subpar finger print reader (seriously only worked about half the time), and poor network connectivity were enough to tell me this would not be a phone I'd be happy with long term. Reviewers are overhyping that device (likely paid by Google to do so). I even like the photos better from what I can tell between the two.

wallpaper on 10:30 ? plz?

One plus 11 vs Pixel 6 pro , my take is that its a no contest between the two flashships , i give the huge win to the One plus 11

I'm a Pixel guy. However I like one plus. Either choice has merit.

The pixel I had, I sent back for a refund due to one thing: I could not charge in my car, in airports, trains, from battery packs, or using other peoples chargers. Google don't even sell a charger on their homepage (In Denmark) for their own phone, and only one out of aprox. 20 chargers I have could charge the phone. The "Connected but not charging" message on the Pixel is a ..major malfunction !! On the other hand Oneplus.. (sic..) I have 8t and seriously it works, camera is terrible, but charging is fantastic !! but the super phones they made in ol' days like One plus 3 for where serious a bargain at that time. nowadays it is just a phone that charge really fast :) on the other hand, what is it worth you have the best camera phone on the market ( Pixel no doubt) if you have no power..??.. and cant charge it anywhere.. then it's a brick !

At that price point should have compared oneplus 11 with pixel 7 and not the pro version. Snapdragon gen 2 is faster than tensor 2 , also big battery and fast charging are plus points on one plus . better camera on pixel 7 pro version and not on pixel 7 .

Sure, I'd definitely rather take a more expensive phone with a subpar cpu, color shifting display, and a battery that takes 2 hours to charge. Get serious.

Stop lying about 30W charging...it clearly says 23W but actual speed could be slower literally in spreadsheets

Hardware: Oneplus Camera: Pixel because of 5x telephoto and better video quality on the front Battery life: Oneplus Charging: Oneplus (charger included in the box) Software Experience: is subjective but oneplus broke my OP9 screen so Pixel Price: Oneplus What to buy: its up to you

Only thing the Pixel has over the OP11 (arguably) is the camera

I have both. In fairness the OnePlus is just the better phone. It's faster, smoother than pixel. The screen is better, it's way more powerful. It's easily 95 percent as good in.the camera department. Forget wireless charging, the 100w charging is way better than anything wireless charging can bring. Yes pixel will get more software updates but OnePlus isn't bad.

This bias review is so Trash.... Oneplus is supirior in everyway... Winner pixel 😂😂😂 what a joke

I hate when tech privileged youtubers think removing wireless is the "worst decision" when it's honestly the single most useless feature and normally people couldn't care less about it unless they've spent a fortune on their phone and need a psychological justification in the form of looking at their device slowly tick charge the battery on a wireless pad.

Lol u can customize the screens so it doesn't always just have that search bar widget in the center just by adding other widgets, etc.

My husband and I both have Pixel 6 Pros. They are in their boxes, not being used at all. We got tired of the massive amount of glitches and software problems with almost every update so we bought two Motorola Edge Plus 2022's and have used them happily for almost a year. Our Pixels will probably go to the grandkids at Christmas and I will never buy a Google phone again, even though our Pixel 2's were fantastic. Wireless charging means nothing to me as it's too slow and has a tendency to heat up my phone. I'll be buying two OnePlus 11 phones soon. They look fantastic!

How hard it to plug in your phone....... wireless charging is alright but fast charging is awesome.

How is it a TOUGH call when there is a Clear winner??

Refresh rate..op CPU.....op Charging speed...op Included charger...op Battery life...op Gaming....op Quad hd display...op Camera ...G Ai...G Weight..op Promotional deals..op The OnePlus is really the best phone for the money and offers a clear advantage with the s8g2 and 80 watt super vooc charging. The cameras are not as good as the pixel but are still very damn good. It's the OnePlus all day for me. I cannot stand hour long charging at this point in life and cringe at the thought of paying top money for it. Screw Samsung Apple and Google and shame on them too for selling this prehistoric charging shit!!

My pixel 7 pro is laggy and freezes , and gets hot 🔥... And it's terrible battery life means I'm selling it .

oh my god no wireless charging. I would rather have my phone unusable for an hour longer for wireless charging

Honestly i dont mind the pixel being worse with stats. Its good and has all the cool features to make up for it

I'm convinced the only people that care about wireless charging are tech RU-vidrs. Have I used wireless charging? Sure. Do I care about it at all? Absolutely not. It's slow, it's inefficient, and uses far more electricity if you care about that kind of thing. Anyway it sucks. And I'm sending this from a pixel 7 pro with the absolute crap 23 watt charging 😢

I never Will go to wireless charging till it's worth you pay about 1.5x for about 50% of the speed and it's till a wire from the wall to the pad so I wouldn't say it stops the mess with wires but that's just me

Oxygen OS died at release of 12

Pixel is having quality issues ...volume buttons coming off(but its camera is good+sw support), unlocks with anyones fingerprint(but its camera is good+sw support),dust is getting in camera lens(but its camera is good +sw support),heating n battery backup less(but its camera is good +sw support)
