      @Weez.x.Zo.313 As a Pixel user since the P2 XL, I am not in disagreement. But being a former Samsung Galaxy phone owner, I don't care much for One UI. Imo, pick your poison. Trade one disadvantage for another. But obviously this is based on user preference. 🤷‍♀

      I think that the UI and the user experiance is so good on the Pixel, its my favourite on all of the devices, having had the Pixel 9 Pro XL, but I do think the performance is lacking a little compared to the other flagships, hopefully they can d somehting with the 11

    • @LiveYourTruth119
      @LiveYourTruth119 Month ago +2

      I compared the sound to my iPhone 15 Pro Max and I like the 15 Pro Max speakers way more; the sound comes from centre whereas Samsung you can easily hear that they are bottom firing.
      Also, the camera On the iPhone 15 Pro, Max has better colour accuracy out of the box whereas Samsung you have to professionally tune with Settings just to get the colour accuracy proper and realistic.
      Doesn’t feel like a true upgrade so I’m going to return it because I don’t want to have to sacrifice things just to gain some other things.

  • @carloscarias2472
    @carloscarias2472 Month ago +8

    I went from Apple to Samsung years ago! But I decided to try out the pixel 10 pro XL because I felt that Samsung didn't really bring anything new, and if anything took features away. I think if you like android the pixel is the way to go.

    • @ancientslav4863
      @ancientslav4863 13 days ago +3

      One buys a pixel for the software, not the hardware. And unless one plays heavy games, there's no point being impressed by paper specs. Pixel SW, camera are what's this about. The speakers are also as good as the others, maybe less loud. Quality build is second to none either.

    Honestly, the software and user experience on Pixel more than make up for the performance you get on other phones. I don't see why you'd need that extra performance unless you were a gamer, as it handles everything pretty smoothly.

    • @ancientslav4863
      @ancientslav4863 13 days ago

    • @darth_Zoltan
      @darth_Zoltan 13 days ago +3

      Yes, 95% of users only text, doom scroll and RUclips, maybe play a mobile game occasionally and take pictures. All these people getting caught up with what's under the hood, like they are constantly running their phones at maximum, playing ps5 games, and editing 4k videos with Adobe on a smartphone are delusional. The pixel wins because it's real world use is excellent and its software/camera are great. Not to mention they are giving them away for under $700 constantly.

    • @CrypticDaemon
