    Bought it. Love it! Came from the iPhone and yeah they are great minus the walled garden they have. In my case and preference between the two, LOVE the pixel! Feels more friendly and I think looks nicer. Everything I miss from the apple ecosystem, Google's one is just as nice and very similar so it's perfect for me. Plus Google being available on every device was a HUGE plus for my work life

    tensor has serious performance problems just like exynos chips, on paper the gpu in tg3 is much more powerful than the gpu found in the sd865 which could run gengin impact fairly good.
    Along with the cpu being miles ahead.
    So theres clearly something else going on here apart from the notion tensor chips are not made for gaming.

For my liking I prefer the photos coming out of the Pixel’s camera. Also, the system is so clean, I love that I have more options to customise my device. To be honest Android became so good especially on the Pixel devices that I am confidently using my Pixel without feeling like I am missing out on something comparing to my iPhone which I still have and I use both devices. The Pixel is just a really nice phone to use in overall. :)

      @@JoeltheG same reasons as @mariopapai2903 stated but I was also getting bored of the iPhone experience. There were features that I wanted to use like split screen and a "clear all" tab to close out all open apps at once instead of swiping up for 10 plus apps every time. There are other features that I have come to appreciate like, changing my keyboard, changing how notifications operate, the flexibility to tweak what I don't like, ect. I have everything apple (MacBook, iPad, watch, air pods) but after seeing the pixel 8 and how refined it is, I wanted to check it out. I also was not impressed with the iPhone 15s considering after comparing my iPhone 13 to the 15, I really didn't see a benefit in upgrading(also the 60hz screen on the 15s and slow USB-c charging didn't help considering they're like 800 bucks). Apple is a good brand, but I feel like they're settling, where as Pixel is making moves to improve.
      Over all, I've been very happy with my experience that the pixel has to offer and I personally think that it a good deal with what it offers.

    I have used Pixel 3a, 6a and iPhone 13 Pro. So here's my feedback for someone who is confused between Pixels and iPhones.
    Pixel 3a was a gold rated phone except for the Performance. After moving to 6a i found the phone to be considerably fast, but not as much as any of the iPhones. However this was my first impression. After using it for a few weeks, i noticed more issues. 6a gets warmer(not hot) every time i use it, video cannot be recorded for more than 5 mins at 30 degree celsius weather. On summer days, after clicking some photos itself phone starts to show over heated warning. Portrait mode is not as good as how it was in my 3a. Edge detection fails most time and its not as good as iPhone now. Again, it doesnt blur the image properly, sometimes half of my image is blurred not the subject itself. Astro mode in Camera never turns on. Shutter speed is quite fast that image quality is compromised compared to my 3a. Overall i would say, 3a had a far better camera than 6a. Apart from this, Then finger print doesn't work most of the time on Pixel 6a. In display finger print on the Pixel 8 is also not ultrasonic and hence not as fast as flagships. Overall i would say, quality of Pixels has degraded much after switching to Tensor. I wouldn't recommend it any more.
    Now coming to iPhone, when compared to Pixel, you get better video quality, a good camera system overall, better micro phone and speakers, better UI/UX, better ecosystem, Offline AI and Albums,Face ID that works in night too, better resale value. Overall iPhone is a better value for money compared to Pixel 8 i can say. You may still go for Pixel if you are getting it at a much cheaper Price compared to iPhone 15.
