If you want to upgrade your phone with the best one in the market, here’s a guide to help you make the Decision. 

Should you go for the tried-and-tested iPhone, or are you ready to try Pixel? Here is a detailed comparison of prices, camera capabilities, and other specs.

Battery Capacity: Pixel 8 Pro Takes the Lead:

Pixel 8 Pro has a battery capacity of 4,950mAh, whereas the iPhone’s capacity is 3,274mAh, making the former a better choice.

With a display of 6.7 inches, the Pixel 8 Pro is larger than the iPhone 15 Pro’s display of 6.1 inches. The Pixel 8 Pro has more nits — 2,400 — which will make the display brighter than the newly launched iPhone 15 Pro.

Processing Power: iPhone 15’s A17 Pro vs. Pixel 8 Pro’s Tensor 3:

Speaking of processors, the iPhone 15 is said to be faster with its A17 Pro chip. Pixel 8 Pro, on the other hand, runs on the Tensor 3, which is certainly among the best in the market.

Storage Options: Competitive Offerings from Both:

In terms of storage, both phones are highly competitive. Pixel 8 Pro is available in three variants – 128GB, 256 GB, and 512 GB — perfect for your apps, photos, and videos. On the other hand, the iPhone Pro offers storage options at 128GB, 256 GB, 512 GB, and also 1 TB.

Camera Capabilities: Pixel 8 Pro Takes the Lead:

Google’s latest offering features a triple rear camera setup with a 50-megapixel primary camera. The iPhone 15 Pro has a 48MP main camera. 

Technically, Pixel 8 Pro has a better camera with upgrades like a 48MP ultrawide and 48MP telephoto camera.

Pricing: Pixel 8 Pro Comes as a More Affordable Option:

To get your hands on an iPhone 15 Pro, you must shell out Dh4,299 for a 128GB version in the UAE. On the other hand, Google’s newly launched Pixel 8 Pro is priced at Dh3,200.

True enough, both phones are packed with impeccable features. It would be easy for those just entering the high-end smartphone segment to go with the Pixel 8. 

It does give tough competition to the much-hyped iPhone 15 — but whether it can convert loyal Apple users, who have relied on their trusty iPhones for years, remains to be seen.
