    I am 15 year iPhone user (I upgrade yearly) and this year switched to Pixel 9 pro xl. Not really happy about seeing apple have neen adding unnecessy software features/changes and hardware buttons, or annouce features too early to trying to catch up with competition(this reminds me of doing business with some Chinese companies)
    Now a few weeks on my Pixel though I do miss some of the iphone software featrues, e.g. how widgets can work on lockscreen and swipe right on home on the iphone., but, for the most part the Pixel really shines when it comes to useful tools when travelling and productivity (the AI stuff). Things like system-wdie live translate, live caption, google lens, that helps translation chats photos or camera view. Its sooo useful when travelling into another country.
    I also missed the iPhones video cam and portrait video too, but I am also enjoying the Pixel photos and front cam much more than the iPhones now.

      I had a Pixel 3a and 6a and now the iPhone 16, my first iPhone (although I used my wife’s iPhone and iPad).
      I’m loving my iPhone. iOS is a very gentle OS with sounds and vibrations. iOS improved in some aspects that were deal breaker for me, getting closer to Android experience, like moving icons wherever, change widget size without removing them, etc.
      But I think Pixel OS offers better UX. It is more effortless to use whereas iOS you have to be more intentional with gestures and other things. Like in Android you pull the notifications pulling down from whatever on the screen or the universal back gesture. Better notifications. Much better keyboard with numbers row, comma and dot in the same layout, and much better multilingual functionality (even bilingual keyboard on iOS 18.0.1 doesn’t get close to Pixel), better dictation, better assistant, better spam calls control, clipboard history and easier copy&paste functionality, etc.
      I also found iPhone and Apple Watch to have more bloatware than Pixel phones and watch. Pixel seems the pinnacle of simplicity and UX.
      There are things I love about iOS 18 and now offers more customisation that Android like the control panel and lock screen. Although i would like to get rid of the app library. I really like taking a screenshot, sharing it, tapping on Done and Delete, so I don’t accumulate screenshots.
      The worse part of iOS for me is how buggy the Messages app is and nobody mentions it:
      - screen goes off when recording a voice message and either the recording message is not there anymore or was paused when the screen went off
      - messages syncing issues
      - voice message stuck on 00:00 3/10 times i try to send an audio message from the sound wave icon on the right side of the text input (it always work from the + icon on the left)
      - and more
      What i love the most is the Apple Watch Series 10 and the rings. series 10 is very lightweight and thin, and rings are very motivational. And the alarm haptics slowly increasing is super cool. My Pixel Watch 2 alarm/bedtime syncing was very buggy (sometime the phone ring, sometimes the watch, sometime neither 😅 ).
      I really like both systems.

      Wrong. Anytime you’re gaming, editing, using the camera or video, that processing power is used. Hence why the iPhone can record silky smooth video in Dolby Vision and do ProRAW photos. Also, that raw power means the iPhone will actually hold up with 7 of updates. Don’t kid yourself. The Pixel will be lucky to hold up through 4 updates…

    It’s a tough choice because I want the best possible performance in both photos and videos on a smartphone. However, everywhere I turn, people keep telling me that the iPhone is the king of video, while the Pixel is the king of photography. It’s frustrating.
    Why isn’t there a device that excels at both, outperforming everyone else? It feels like each brand is perfecting only one area, leaving consumers like me having to compromise when what we really want is an all-in-one solution.

      Phone mediocre chip and absolutely inferior internal memory storage speeds can be felt in much more activities than some benchmarks or dumb gaming on a phone.
      Shutter lags when u try quick succession, video also suffers and have limitations connected to mediocre chip, import/ export or processing large 4k video files is 3x slower due horrible ufs 3.1 storage speeds… phone ia good, but turning blind eye while paying premium price wont make them wanting to improve.
      Its not about benchmarks phone behave like a mid ranger when processing video files , processing photos, importing exporting speeds and starting storage capacity while charging the same as apple and samsung.
      If you believe Apple and Samsung are trying their best to put powerful yet efficient chips in their products just to be able to get good scores in benchmarks or gaming i dont have anything more to say😂

I switched to 9 Pro XL directly after S24 Ultra and the only performance difference I see is in gaming, obviously, I cannot game on Ultra but rather Medium. Everything else, heavy every day usage, a lot of camera usage, AI editing, efficiency and fluency is literally the same. I would say Pixel is even more smooth in some situations.

    This is a personal preference situation, but I own both and in terms of raw value, the 16 Pro Max is the better device at the same price. Google should not be trying to compete directly with Apple at that price. Forgetting the intangibles, you can walk into an Apple store and get your phone repaired/replaced pretty much anywhere. Google support is a nightmare to deal with. Also in terms of raw hardware, you get more value out of the iPhone. You can hate on iOS and Apple all day, but you get much more of what you pay for with their devices than you do with Google.

    I go back and forth between Pixel and iPhone, although it's been Pixels for me for past few years since I'm on Google Fi. Having said that I'm hoping to go back to iPhone this time around. The main reasons are the cameras! Pixel improved the selfie camera, but iPhone now has the new photographic styles. I think this takes away the Pixel advantage when it comes to photos. iPhone is much better with video and the 5x camera, while better on Pixel, makes the iPhone Pro (regular) a better deal. I have the Pixel 8 Pro, so I'm good for now anyway, but I will switch to the iPhone Pro if/when I can.

However I think whats interesting is people dont realize how similar they really are. Apple is no longer the easier to use smoother phone, they are equal. Pixel is a much Smarter phone with a better modem. Apple has a better SOC with a stronger history, and a little more physical refinement.

    I'm an iPhone user and I'm really pised at Apple for Apple intelligence. I'm French and it will take almost 9 months before I have it in french. I had a perfect iPhone 13 pro max witch I switch for the iPhone 15 pro max just because of Apple intelligence capabilities, now I wish I didn't change my phone at all. I write a lot to clients in English and French and AI was a big concern for me. Apple lost my confidence. I feel like I was lied to.

    Been an apple guy since 5s. I have the 15 Pro Max and the Pixel 9 Pro XL. Google's Pure OS experience is unmatched. My 15 pro max is collecting dust right now. Pixel 9 Pro lineup is the phone to beat this year.

Google battery life is dire too. So right now apple wins better battery better and stronger screen and the best video recording

    In this video, the speaker is comparing Google's Pixel 9 Pro XL and Apple's iPhone 16 Pro Max. Both phones are the most expensive slab style phones offered by their respective companies. The Google Pixel 9 Pro XL starts at $1,099 for 128GB of storage and offers 7 years of updates, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max starts at $1,199 for 256GB of storage and is estimated to also offer 7 years of updates. In terms of design, both phones are quite similar, but the Pixel 9 Pro XL has a more modern camera housing design and a SIM card slot, which is not available on iPhones in the United States. The displays on both phones are also comparable, but the iPhone 16 Pro Max has slimmer bezels and an always-on display. The Pixel 9 Pro XL has a brighter display, with a peak brightness of 3,000 nits compared to the iPhone's 2,000 nits. In terms of camera quality, both phones take excellent photos, but the speaker prefers the Pixel's more realistic color processing. The iPhone 16 Pro Max still reigns supreme in video recording, with better stabilization and dynamic range. The speaker also found the battery life on both phones to be comparable, with both lasting a full day and getting between 7 and 8 hours of screen-on time. The software experience is a matter of personal preference, but the speaker found Android 14 to be more refined than iOS 18. Overall, the speaker believes that the Pixel 9 Pro XL is a better phone than the iPhone 16 Pro Max, offering a more modern design, comparable camera quality, and a more refined software experience.
