CLEAR Winner: iPhone 16 vs Google Pixel 9!

[@Jxdro]

Only reason they have it at 60hz is cause if they put it to 120hz the pros would never sell 💀💀💀💀💯💯

[@Pinkyc0rn332]

Well not really the pro models already have more features besides pro motion. Plus it isn’t a massive deal and many others including myself, don’t notice the difference in IOS. I only felt the difference when I was with my galaxy S21 because android feels more clunky than IOS and the 60hz is more noticeable. I personally wont get any pro model cause the colors are so boring 🥱

[@Jxdro]

@@Pinkyc0rn332 you did nothing but spit, to me personally though, the 120hz really makes a difference an extra camera isn’t what people really care about when looking at the Pros let alone chip it’s rocking or whatever so it’s really the deal breaker cause there’s literally 0 difference otherwise that isn’t a gimmick

[@Pinkyc0rn332]

@@Jxdro Go ask a regular person on the street why they chose the pro model over the standard iPhone. The answer will usually be “cause it’s the best iPhone.” Hearing a random stranger say “because of the 120hz refresh rate” is uncommon. Most people don’t even know what 60hz or 120hz means. If you buy the pro phones because of the 120hz, that’s amazing and I hope you Enjoy the phone. As much as I would love 120hz, I prefer to have a cute pink phone that I can wear a clear case and admire its beauty than having a boring colored phone.

Not giving to user an AI with 16 iPhone - lie on a commercial, not planing to give AI at all to all users with iPhone 15 and below - total bullshit. This year I have update my 13 PM to iPhone 16 PM, but I’m pretty sure that the next my phone will be the Pixel 11 Pro or Samsung S26 Ultra or whatever it will be named by that time)

[@deliberatelyaverage]

I literally am thinking the exact same thing. I got my iPhone 12 PM upgraded to an iPhone 16 PM specifically for the Ai and it doesn’t have it until later in the month. I have refused to switch simply because I figured apple was gonna rebound at some point, but they haven’t. I’m definitely gonna switch.

[@a-terrible-fate532]

agreed, the camera system is great on iPhone, and is the best on social media for those who care about it. But other than that, there are not interesting features and no ai features to speak of, I read the title of an article that said it would possibly take 2 or more years for apples vision of ai in their phones to be completed or something like that, that's embarrassing considering the google and android phones have had ai for years now ffs. I personally refuse to be locked into the walled garden. Im thinking of going pixel again for the voice typing since I love that feature. And the pixel photography is generally unbeaten in the android world. Samsungs cameras are to saturated for me and the shutter speed is to slow for my taste. Other than that Samsung is great and I don't mind one UI, just dump the bloatware and double apps nonsense. I choose the google play store over the Samsung store everytime.

[@Unpopedpopcorn]

I’m have had my 13 mini for 3 years, I’ll still keep it for another few years. For me personally I don’t think the ai features are that’s important, or game changer, the iPhone 12-13 are just as fast as the 16 maybe few seconds slower but still comparable, and have good enough cameras, there is no point of upgrading

[@AkhilSrirama]

Long time apple user 10+ years. Switched to Pixel 9 Pro and gotta say everything about it is nice. Apple has imessage and thats it. Everything else I like my pixel more now.

[@tonton9598]

I really wanted an iphone this year but I own a pixel 9 right now simply because of the refresh rate difference, and I am not willing to spend money for a pro / pro max.

Because until the Pixel 8, only the iPhones used Face ID Authentication for Banking and Payment Apps. Now Google does it too.

i agree but googles software consistency falls short compared to apple. the most basic tasks with pixels, even with the 9 series is that when its good, it runs good, but as soon as you try to do anything complex it starts to stutter and can fail.

They're not all that functionally different you could get like a picto7 Pro for 350 bucks or a pixel 8 for 300 bucks. Pixel 6 Pro over $175. These days it's actually a good thing to have a second phone anyway and iPhone has added support for RCS. But I do understand if you have an Apple TV and an iPad and Mac...

I used to own a Pixel, was a decent phone. In fact my first four smart phones were android devices.

I don't care about either companies "AI" features at this point, plus Google's data harvesting is vastly more invasive.

[@DanielOrtegoUSA]

As someone who’s been using Apple products since 1983, I can honestly say Apple’s glory days are behind them. They’re no longer the kings of innovation and technology. I’ve been thinking about switching to Pixel for the last six or seven years, but the whole ecosystem has kept me locked in. Maybe when the Pixel 10 XL drops, I’ll finally make the move. 🤞

[@Komachian]

The real question is, would you have a phone with a higher refresh rate screen but weaker processor, or rather have a phone with a lower refresh rate but stronger processor? (Processor is especially important for people who want to hold on to their device for a long time) Then there are the Fingerprint vs FaceID and the Android vs iOS arguments. The general consumer won’t feel any difference with the cameras anyway. That AI would take a long time to release in most iPhones is definitely a bummer though.

[@sakhilenkosi5743]

You convincing us or yourself. Bro 60hz in 2024 whether you’re tech savvy or not it feels slow, all that power in the iPhone doesn’t mean much in day to day use doing normal things, however you will appreciate the high refresh rate everytime.

I also wish they increase the storage for the base model since they've had a price increase two years in a row. I don't think the prices are outrageous or anything but it was cool when they were hyper competitive at $600 and 900 respectively. Then the next year it was $7l799/999with a $60 upsell to double your storage so effectively a $60 price increase for 256. But this year at least in my country the US, 256 GB versions are up now $140 from last year so $1,200 instead of 1160 and 900 instead of 860. But honestly doesn't seem to have hurt sales. I'm sure a lot of people are not actually paying full price but getting subsidized through a carrier

[@michael_c2]

​@@hypno0784I can't speak from experience because I have not used the telephoto on the s24 but megapixels are not necessarily indicative of quality. Sensor size is a much more important variable usually depending on use case. I mean there's benefits to having more megapixels but there's also downsides because the pixels are smaller. Don't get me wrong it's entirely possible that your critique of the camera is justified I can't say... But it's probably not because of the megapixel count so much as it being a middling sensor that they have an upgraded in a few years. Some companies are now trying to hype up really high megapixel counts on pretty middling or even smaller sensors. Like the zombie 10 Note Pro or the Moto edge Plus 2020. Those had 108 megapixel cameras and really weren't any good or at least we're average at best.

I have had the Pixel 9 for 6 months now. I moved up from Pixel 8, and had other versions of the Pixel.

The ergonomics are a distinct improvement from the quality of the phone, how it feels in the hand, and the operation of the various uses. Gemini and AI are unimpressive to me, in particular with photos. I hate hate fake photos. Stepping up to the Pixel 9 is without a doubt a must move from any other Pixel.

@@L-jv4ig I think that iOS is better than Androd for regular user. Is simpler and user have less to click to achieve the goal. I have ip14 and S24. And I didn't see 60Hz as problem until I read about it on the internet.

How many foreign languages do you speak? Just watch the video, get the info you need and that s all

[@HeavyFoot88]

For sound quality on video recording which you prefer because I've always go to see concert then record or even record my own band on the go😊

[@heheheheheheee]

They are also similar because Samsung made AMOLED panels for both.

[@MPAROR]

What about the microphone (Audio on video)? Iphone does well in loud environments such as Concerts. How about the pixel?

[@mmsg96]

I think this is the first phone that can retain its resell value like iPhones. This phone is awesome, benchmarks don't do it justice. To be frank, they shouldn't matter for 95% of people. I only wish developers focused on android on pixels as well for in app camera/video performance

[@vasoman_megh]

Your colour selection very good ❤ brother

[@flexor212000]

The benefit of 60hz is battery life. That's why it's off by default for the Pixel...

[@ssxforever9835]

Yes but im surely glad im able to turn it on. The Reason why the normal Iphones are stuck to 60 Hz tho is probably Battery life.

[@justturbo8573]

The pixel can dile there refresh rate to I think 1 heart so there battery is still better optimised then apple when it comes to that

[@melonspg3d]

@@justturbo8573apple literally does that exact same thing though?

[@Z1bi]

Its not off by default, in fact pixels screen has ltpo technology which is even more efficient than regular 60hz

[@akshay5569]

Nop, I have an LTPO display in my phone and yet I forse 120hz on all apps , phone is meant to be enjoyed .

[@reitinworldwide]

Can you turn the camera button on the iPhone16 off? Its annoying

[@techyrock]

Finally someone pointing out the obvious about 60Hz panel, its just unacceptable at this price point

[@jevonsims900]

@1:58 there's no good reason for 60Hz? Well, by default Pixel 9 is at 60Hz so even Google felt saving battery was important. Speaking of money grabs there's no reason for Google to follow Apple other than greed.

[@SurendraKDharmadhikari]

yes i agree that even google kept the display to 60hz by default, but the screen has the option for 120hz for those who wish to enjoy that fast display. A point worth considering!

[@tonoftroubles]

choosing between options and making do with what you have are two completely different things man

[@TauCu]

Keyword: default. You can set your refresh rate to a lower value on any device worth it's salt. Apple skimped on the hardware here to make a buck by exploiting people who wouldn't notice until they bought it, blindly trusting the brand.

[@jordakiass]

If i wanna use or not, Google gives me the option to choose between 60 and 120 hz. My Asus Zenfone 9, has three options , 60, 90 and 120 hz and is 2 years old.😊

[@_sharanshetty_]

What a video!!! After Marquess maybe you are the one I would watch, just for the sake of watching the video and not for the value in the content - because your videos look so good!!!

[@Anhedonis]

If it was only about the phone, then I would replace my iPhone Mini with a Moto Razr. But people and tech reviewers seem to forget that it’s less about the phone and more about what you do with it. Pixel has Google Fi, better integration with GoogleVoice and google maps, and Gemini. But if you already have an iPad and Air Pods and Air tags, and a Mac, there’s not much point in getting anything but an iPhone. But if none of that matters to you, judged only by the merits of a singular device/phone, then Razr or OnePlus would be better.

[@zilvermann]

Problem with Pixel is video. If you take video on pixel it looks awesome but once you share in social medias or forward it via Whatsapp. Quality drops significantly, its not enjoyable to watch it. Quality is like 80% lower.

[@zilvermann]

Also if you zoom in out on pixel, it lags

[@valacauz]

Android 16 will fix this. The Android 16 Developer Preview 2 that have just launched have direct APIs , and apps can now take full advantage of cameras.

[@TheSultanV]

Pixel has been killing it lately. I'm still rocking my pixel 7 ❤

[@vincent24711]

The comparison specs are confusing since you are holding the iPhone on your right while facing the camera and its specs are on your left. Maybe put it the same way you are having which phone are you holding. Overall this is an informative comparison.

[@Pam-zr7kt]

You forgot to mention the performance gains on iPhone. Big difference maker when comparing optimisation and multitasking or let’s say gaming.

[@valacauz]

multitasking in iphone is a joke compared to pixels. night and day difference. only gaming will be better, but let's remember the ton of systems that can be emulated in android and gaming on android will always be a better choice. and now with winlator, let's just say that can't even compare.

[@yosnah867]

the iphone 16 can actually record in prores in the blackmagic camera app from what i can remember. although it can't record in apple log though

[@hrpatil1147]

Google should go for the Snapdragon Processor that Tensor chip is such a bad reason for the poor sale of pixel devices lately due to the tensor chip. Oh boy if it has Gen 3 or Snap 8 Elite Processor. It'll be a cherry on the cake!

[@UninstallingWindows]

I think the only thing that iPhones are really good at is being future proof. By that, i mean iphones work many years, if not decades after being bought. Android phones tend to drastically slow down within a few years. All my android phones have stopped working after 5-6 years. Same goes for the phones of my friends. Not because they broke, but because the software could no longer be updated and webpages/apps will simply not run on outdated android versions. My iphone, which is 7+ years old now, still runs smooth as butter and has no problem rendering any pages at all. Even with almost full memory usage.

[@sohrabsinghsmagh]

Is pixel UI lighter than Samsung’s UI, and is the overall experience better than the Samsung Ultra? I’m thinking of buying it. Currently, I have an iPhone 14 Plus.

[@TitoBobbyPh]

If your video or any other movies/videos on the net and ganes run at 120fps then I would say 60hz is a sham but it seems it’s the otherway around but high refresh rates look good in ui and that’s it

[@vtxparadox]

Rocking my pixel 8 since last year. It's too good at AI and the camera is what I need

[@josesabat1710]

Two beautiful phones ❤

[@Bruce.Wanye.]

Love it or hate it the tensor chip is garbage. in future should google use TSMC chips they might do good

[@steve-ey4ol]

Yep iPhone 15 won’t get the updates so I’m switching really feel let down by Apple - who in there right mind would invest in a iPhone 16 only to find out next year that the phone will not support all update - Tim Cook is the new wizard of oz as he stands there and say this is the best iPhone EVER then goes behind the curtain and starts rubbing is hands and says suckers fill my pockets- well sorry not anymore.

[@shaiksk6212]

I can feel the pain, I was also felt the same with my iPhone 14 Pro max.

[@Manuel-rl6um]

Nothing new. They did the same when they release night photos with the iPhone 12, where the previous flagship didn’t get it. My Pixel 3a took much better photos than my friends’s 1 year old £1000+ iPhone.

[@ruyveng]

But... Pixels also don't receive new features when the next iteration comes.

[@steve-ey4ol]

@@ruyvengcan say the same with Apple as the 15 can’t get all the new features

[@ruyveng]

@@steve-ey4ol I know, I only wanted to say both companies reserve their newest "selling features" for newest models.

[@muzankibutsuji7603]

the tensor G3 has enough lag in normal tasks to the point that it actually feels somewhat slower than the iphone 16 or the s24(by a long shot) in normal use. like let's be honest here, charging 799 for a phone with similar performance to Samsung's a55 is a crime in itself edit: wrote itone instead of iPhone

[@vladko397]

Google pixel has no performance issues :)

[@aljosacebokli]

I dont understand, iphone has the same identical design for the 4th generation. It still has the giant blob in the centre top of the screen and apple has not made any effort to actually improve the design vs. google's improvement over the generations of pixel releases. The regular iphone doesn't even have material advantage as it's aluminium as opposed to titanium on the pros, which would at least offer some advantage. The camera setup on regular iphones this year is not even as original as it was before, it more resembles some of the midrange chinese phones on the market from honor with the two bulging eyes. Please explain your infatuation with 4th gen identical apple design?

[@RobertP-v1v]

I just switched to pixel from iPhone. I usually get the new iPhone every year. Not this time. To me Apple lost innovation. I do not regret switching.

[@venividivici1982]

Great video as always, but is Gemini not Genimi ☺️🤪

[@kensei_zar]

youve done this video so well, but.... in every single comparison the pixel is at the right and the iphone is at the left, but the scores are flipped, why?

[@piyushdhorey3295]

iPhone 16 Pro actually feels smooth rather than base 16, just because of thr higher refresh rate, for that only I would prefer it over any Android smartphone out there. Right now its Pixel 9 for me

[@rishisabharwal3625]

what about the performance part?

[@Pam-zr7kt]

I would happily compare with a 15pro on a good deal and win.
