Google Pixel 3 vs Apple iPhone XS By PhoneArena

Here, we are again people iPhone vs. Android. It may not be the oldest tech rivalry, but it's certainly one of the most fierce, but with competition comes great innovation and with innovation comes amazing products. Products like the iPhone, 10s and pixel three, both of these handsets, are packed to the brim, with intelligent software and incredible hardware, with very nice cameras to match. Just looking at the two makes us want to hit them together, like action figures like kids again so who wins the fight this year. Of course, we'll start with design looks, aren't everything, but they're, certainly important for smartphones of this level.

Both of these are simple. Glass meets metal devices. The pixel three feels good in hand with its matte and gloss finish back and aluminum sides. The face has been bezels on the sides, but it pronounced forehead and chin on top and bottom. Overall, it's a simple, balanced and light device which feels premium.

The iPhone 10s, though, is a seriously premium feeling device. It has a heft and weight to it that immediately lets you know, you're holding a device made from the highest end materials in the industry. The pixel three feels as though it's a step below the iPhone 10s as high-end look and feel. In this respect, the tennis seems to earn its premium price tag based on, looks and feel alone, while the pixel three being a slightly less expensive device, feels like it should cost less than two 10s stylistically. Another divergence comes from the screens, while both endeavor to achieve the edge to edge design.

The two flagships go about it in different ways. The 10 s has a slim, uniform bezel, going around three-quarters of the screen, except, of course, at the top, where the notch sits. We've talked about the notch at length as many have, but it ultimately becomes a very inconsequential part of your screen experience not to mention that it eliminates the need for a big chin or forehead on the device, the pixel 3 ops to forego the notch and instead keeps larger bezels at the top and bottom. Then, at the sides it's not a bad look per se and with the new, rounded corners at the screen. It's certainly more modern than the pixel 2, but looking at this face doesn't exactly scream cutting edge technically we're looking at two vibrant, highly detailed OLED displays with great color accuracy, while the 10s offers automatic hue changes via the true tone.

Setting the pixel 3 has a manual 3-step scale for dialing. Up contrast, the iPhones environment sensing tones are nice, as is the much higher max brightness at 664 nits versus the pixels 459, making the iPhones significantly more versatile, even though these screens are the same with the iPhones look significantly wider and overall bigger than the pixel three is, despite it only being a third of an inch bigger when measured diagonally. All of this together gives the 10s the edge in the display Department when it comes to comparing the best that Android has to offer with the best iOS iterations it's hard to imagine pitting the iPhone against anything other than a pixel device. Not only is this one of the cleanest and lightest Android incarnations, but this year Google pulled out some innovative new tricks for its flagship smartphone. Arguably the coolest new feature is called screening.

A Google Assistant different call screening surface, which adds an eponymous third button to to deny and accept options. Essentially this feature screens the call for you and allows you to either pick up the call or mark it as spam, based on the colors live transcribed responses. Speech, recognition can get a little wonky, sometimes, but otherwise the execution of this useful tool is pretty good and the iPhone 10s currently has no such similar features. The pixel 3 will also soon half-duplex another assistant driven feature which enables the Google Assistant to call restaurants, make reservations for you and once confirmed, notify you and add them to your calendar, pretty high-level stuff again. Apple has no such analogous feature, which speaks largely a series inferiority to the Google Assistant.

The topic we won't dive into too deeply. As it's a pretty simple situation, the Google Assistant is just better in every way. While we're on the topic, though, the wireless charging pixel stand, adds another dimension to the pixel 3 by turning it into a smart screen. Another feature Burch the iPhone currently has no answer, though. Siri can control smart devices via traditional commands.

The tennis does have its software related advantages, though, first and foremost, the level of support for iOS is unparalleled for the iPhone 10s, while Google guarantees, Android version updates for at least three years on the pixel 3 iOS 12. The latest version of Apple's mobile OS is officially compatible with iPhones going back five generations. Six, if you count the iPhone SE, this length of product support time is unrivaled in the industry, and it's a huge value proposition when purchasing an iPhone 10 s it simply as future-proof as a smartphone can get right now then, there's app an accessory support. Both third-party and first there's been a long-standing disparity between iOS and Android devices. When it comes to device ecosystems with the iPhone always holding the advantage, and while the disparity is lessened, a difference is still clear.

The bottom line is this: will have more compatible and seamlessly integrated accessories and apps for your iPhone 10s, and you will your pixel 3, both the pixel, 3 and iPhone 10s are fun phones to use, and this year both have introduced useful ways to not use their phones as well, with the release of screen time on the iPhone 10 s and digital well-being on the pixel 3 both have nearly the exact same functionalities to encourage limiting phone use and both are easily overridden by the user in terms of effortless and intuitive operation, though the 10s earned the edge over the pixel 3, which is easy as pie, or should we say easier than pie, gesture navigation. These gestures make navigating through your phone an exceedingly smooth, smart and effortless experience. Android, 9, PI's, gesture navigation. Essentially attempts to mimic this, but does so in a less fluid and intuitive way, requiring a series of movements and hold rather than the simple swipes of iOS. The iPhone 10s also has class-leading facial recognition.

Software with integration, so seamless and quick that it makes using any other form of authentication, seems slow and outdated. Io's is, as always, solid as a rock well-supported and a pleasure to use. Of course, at the end of the day, preference plays a large role in what's best for you, but from an objective standpoint. It's hard to say that at this point the pixel threes cool features outweigh the iPhone.10S is reliability, support and its own class-leading innovations. Looking at the silicone driving these two phones you'll come to realize another one of Apple's biggest advantages: in-house processor design, the a12, ionic and 4 gigabytes, ram found in the iPhone 10s again turns and class-leading performance in a variety of benchmarks and real-life usage.

Of course, doesn't disappoint. Google uses the popular snapdragon 845 with 4 gigabytes of RAM to power the pixel 3, but unfortunately this is far from the most impressive implementation of this SOC when looking at the benchmarks. Fortunately, day-to-day use on the pixel 3 is quite smooth, but it's clear that one processes get more intense, as in the case with gaming, for instance, the iPhone 10 has holds a clear power advantage over the pixel 3. The 10s also utilizes a dedicated neural processing chip 4 on device machine learning tasks like predicting your next actions and searching your photos for specific subjects. For instance, the pixel 3 has its fair share of on device machine learning tasks too, like now playing a song ID function that runs to the background without internet connection, speech transcription in the call screening feature and a few camera specific functions we'll get into later.

The pixel 3 doesn't have a dedicated processor for all machine learning tasks, though only for those related to the camera, the pixel visual core, perhaps a dedicated neural processing chip could help non camera related tasks like the sometimes spotty speech transcription and call screening. The pixel three comes in either 64 gigabyte or 128 gigabyte versions and doesn't offer expandable storage, while the iPhone 10s offers 64 256 and 512 gigabytes storage options, another value proposition, helping to justify its higher price and bolster its future-proof prowess, taking all into account. The 10s earned the advantage in this department offering exponentially higher storage capacities and displaying higher capabilities in almost every process and task. When it comes to the camera hardware, there's a lot of similarities between these two devices, as you can see from these key specs. The main difference, however, is the iPhones addition of a 12 megapixel telephoto camera for two times optical zoom and portrait functions touching on software quickly.

The pixel 3 has some key features that Google hopes can push it above and beyond. Tron competitors like the iPhone 10s. One of them is top shot, which captures multiple photos from before, during and after a single shutter click top shot, when enabled picks the best shot from the series for you and even allows you to select and save alternatives from what it captured. While this can be fun and useful, it didn't quite make or break the pixel 3 as a better picture taker when comparing against the iPhone 10s nitrite is another feature. The pixel 3 boasts, but unfortunately isn't yet available.

Though early reports of this feature have been quite impressive. This should improve extremely low light, photo capture, leveraging AI to fill in missing details and colors, we'll have to test it ourselves to properly see the capabilities when it does come out. Image capture on these two phones is strikingly similar, but with a couple of key differences in bright or dynamic, sceneries of both capture, exquisite detail and accurate colors, while displaying expert exposure low-light photos are where you'll see the more market differences between the two. But much of these differences come down to a matter of personal preference, but where their iPhone 10s illuminates some of the darkest shadows. The pixel 3 does leave these dark losing just a bit of the finer details.

The pixel 3 also tends to punch up color slightly in darker dynamic scenes which can look cool but isn't necessarily the most accurate portrayal of these sceneries. An image quality we'd give the slight edge to the iPhone 10s, due to its ability to more evenly expose seniors of any lighting, ultimately making it a more versatile shooter, especially with the addition of a telephoto lens. Still, we wouldn't be upset having either of these phones for our main shooter they're. Both excellent speaking of the 10s is telephoto lens. The pixel three has a feature called super resume, which Google says uses the natural and steadiness of your hand to gather more data from the zoomed in scenes in order to capture a more detailed, less noisy shot in our samples.

We didn't find super resume to perform better than the iPhone two dedicated telephoto camera, though. What we suppose, having this feature is better than nothing selfies captured on both our end via been, their detail, capture and versatility, the pixel 3, with its 8 megapixel main camera, and the iPhone 10s boarding a 7 megapixel front fascia can both capture very good, regular photos and some pretty adept portrait shots to be a software utilization. The pixel 3, however, adds just a bit more versatility by adding a secondary wide-angle camera for bigger, wider selfies 4. This will give the selfie edge to the pixel 3 as they're, both on equal footing. Otherwise, video quality is an area in which we wish these two stellar cameras were closer, but the iPhone 10s easily blows away that pixel 3.

The first thing: you'll notice, when comparing videos is the extremely compressed sounding audio from the pixel 3. The iPhone 10s doesn't have anything too special in terms of hardware here, but the audio recorded certainly sounds exceedingly better than that. If the pixel next you'll notice a surprising amount of artifacts and noise from the pixel 3, when recording 4k video in darker dynamic scenes such as a busy street, despite its otherwise adept optical stabilization, the pixels image processing has some real troubles with such sceneries, while the iPhone 10 has portrays smooth pleasing imagery in its 4k video shot in any lighting, the pixel 3 for the most part, suits just fine in the daytime. Fortunately, but audio issues do persist. So it's a clear choice for us in the video Department, the iPhone 10s all day and night, both the 10s and pixel three offers stereo speaker setups, that get quite loud while one of the two speakers on the 10s is pointed downward, as opposed to the pixel threes, two front-facing speakers, it's hard to tell a difference and how loud or immersive these two phones both are neither phone offers a 3.5, millimeter headphone jack, but the pixel 3 does come with the USB c2 3.5 millimeter adapter and a set of USB-C Pixel Buds. While the 10s only offers a pair of lightning pods and nothing else, nixing the 3.5 millimeter adapter from the included accessories' apple, music, vs, google music, is relatively subjective, but there's no doubt that having iTunes to sync, your media is a huge advantage for the iPhone 10s. With that we'll be handing this round to the 10s for its superior media.

Support calls on both of these devices are a pleasure with loud, clear, earpieces and speakerphones. We found no advantages to calling on one of these devices over the other, but if you have the choice, call screening might be a good reason to put your semen to pixel three. You can use both of these phones relatively heavily throughout the day and not worry about having to juice up until you're ready for bed, both lasted about eight and a half hours in our custom drain test and both now support wireless charging where the pixel three easily pulls ahead, though, is in recharge times the 10s charges from zero to 100 and unsurprisingly long three hours. Well, the pixel three gets the job done in under two we'll confidently say that the pixel three holds the advantage here: making charging our phones much easier on the day to day the iPhone, 10s and Google picks with three are simply two of the best phones. The industry has to offer right now, both come with class-leading innovations that don't come off as niche or inconsequential, but rather serve to improve fundamental aspects of how you interact with your phone, whether that be how you snap pics, take phone calls, consume, media or otherwise.

Leverage your fancy hyper, capable pocket computer so either make your day more fun or easier. You surely can't go wrong with either of these two devices. For these reasons, but there's a few reasons you might choose the iPhone 10s over the pixel. Three first is the much flash here yet refined looks it simply doesn't get more premium than the look and feel of the iPhone 10 s. Next is the premium hardware, the 10 s blows away.

All comers in the benchmark arena and camera hardware proves itself again to be one of, if not the best. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, for some the iPhone 10 s gets you as close to, so you can get to a future-proof device with software updates, typically lasting up to five years and class-leading hardware inside and out it's clear which phone will age better. The pixel three has some promising cool features. Currently, an upcoming and the camera is also one of the best on the market. For now, though, these software innovations don't pack enough of a wallop to floor, the mighty iPhone 10 s and the full arsenal that it harbors I'm, Corey Ga skin with bone arena, thanks for watching sure to check out phone arena comm for in-depth review on these and many other devices.
