I bullshit you not. I have the Pixel 9 pro xl. I'm coming from a 15 pro Max. I must say they got me leaving apple. This set up is buttery smooth. This phone feels just as fast as The S24 and 15 pro Max. The features are sick. I'm impressed. It took me a minute to adjust from apple. However, Im sold. The camera is Top notch and AI is on point. If you love I phone you will put it down for this. This phone is very capable.
Google was really targeting iPhone users with the Pixel 9. It feels like an iPhone when using it, but taken to the next level. Super smooth, very fast, and a simple yet refined software experience. That’s what a lot of people are looking for in a device
I use a Samsung phone, a Pixel phone, and an Apple phone. My main phone is the Samsung because it does everything well. Plus, there is just something special about One UI that lets me multitask in a way I haven’t been able to with the Pixel or Apple. The Pixel sometimes takes better photos than the Samsung, and the Apple has good videos, but my overall favorite phone is the Samsung. I am planning to only use two phones for now, and that will be the Samsung and the Apple.

Great video.. sidenote your music audio during transitions were super loud for some reason compared to your voice... found myself lowering my volume each time a transition came
Yeah , I was just about to mention that too , but otherwise a good video mate . This is a bit of a common thing on tube videos where background music is loud or overwhelming. In all honesty background music could be one third volume just enough to fill in silence and that would be fine .

@@CallMeKJOS yes it is slower, but not nearly the discrepancy you show. You should have side loaded geekbench 5 on Samsung as well to make a fair comparison. Pixel 6 is closer to 4500+ in geekbench, btw.

I had the s3, s5, and s7. before switching to the Pixel 2xl, 4xl, 7Pxl, and now the 9Pxl. Idk. Samsung has come a long way since back then, but Google experience is seamless, rewarding, and cutting edge on Pixels, especially when you invite all the other Google home devices into the the mix. Samsung has it's whole eco system too, but there's nothing enticing me to go back to Galaxy phones. All said, both companies are putting out amazing tech, and competition is great for consumers.
Love the s-pen and that's one reason why I use samsung and no other brand. It's not a gimmick even if you don't use it. It's a feature that not everyone uses, just like you don't use every bit of settings in the phone; does that make it a gimmick, he'll No!
Display would have been a tie if s24 ultra didnt come with Gorilla Armor, the extra scratch resistance and anti reflective coating is a greater deal on its own
@uMADden true not just qhd but qhd+ but u wouldn't notice it much unless u pixel peep and i mostly have it on fhd+ and it had it by default too as qhd+ takes alot of battery but if u look at it that wah then unlike samsung's 3120x1440 Sony gives 1644 x 3840 but ppl still call it's display not optimal as indeed its high resolution but pur eyes cant notice beyond 1080p that much unless u compare 2k display with 8k display then we can notice
Coating on the S24 wears off prematurely. Have had my ultra for 10 months and Samsung has agreed to replace my screen. Make sure you get the extra warranty. Have also had issues with thermal throttling in bright light. Was in Greece and could barely see my screen. For the first time in a long time, I am not upgrading to the s25 until I am comfortable the screen issues have been fixed.
@@stephenrye6474 yup! i can testify this, regarding the screen coating. ive had my S24U for 6months exact now. ive had a screen protector on the entire time. it was peeling the other day so i took it off, decided to try to use the phone without one for once. the literal next day, i tried cleaning the screen with my cloth as normal, and a bunch of weird smudges started to appear. had to ask on reddit to find out it was the coating wearing/coming off. according to some users, taking a screen protector can also take off the coating, as well as using alcohol to clean the screen. at the same time, some users report theirs coming off without having any protectors on and/or cleaning the screen. i have a family member whos had their S24U since march, and their's is coming off too and they never put on a protector on their phone. so the major selling point for this phone is actually a temporary feature.
Just my opinion but it is less of a gimmick than all this AI stuff on the Pixel 9s. The spen is usefull for some very often for others just from time to time. But this AI stuff.....you try it once, think it is ok and then never use it agaim because the features are EXTREMELY niche and not reliable enough.
I'm fortunate to not be a busy person. Once upon a time I was caregiver for my husband's sister and for him. They both had several health issues, which meant several doctor appointments. And, during covid, the cell phone had to be topped off before I went anywhere because, in the city I live in, we had to park, call the desk to check in, wait for someone to come out to the car to ask the usual list of questions, zap our foreheads for our temperatures, then abandon us until the desk called us to say, "come on in". I also found it easier and faster to keep track of appointments in the calendar app, and keep the necessary information required for both my sister-in-law and husband in a notes app. So, faster charge times would have been a plus back in 2020, but I managed by plugging in every evening so as not to worry about running out of juice. Now they are both gone so I no longer have to worry about keeping my phone charged to the max daily. In fact, my S22 Ultra usually has to get plugged in every three days or so now! I am (obviously) starting to look at the newer phones, and the Pixel has piqued my interest for a while. But, I'm afraid I will miss the stylus that I am used to having going back to my Note 9, so this new search is taking me more time then I anticipated.
It would be more helpful to tell us more specific details on how long the battery can go on a charge. For example the battery percentage left after X amount of hours.
They would never because the reason google uses the g4 isn’t for speed. They specially design the tensor chips for pixel phones to make ai integration the tightest and fastest of any smartphones (you can see that with the on device ai which processes far faster than any other device). A major selling point of the pixel is these ai features and removing them takes away from a major distinguishing factor for the phone.
@@hyperone1356 gonne be sad for Google when they finally realize that people don't buy phones just for gimmicks which are not relevant in everyday life.
Its crazy i use a pixel 6 from an s21 and honestly its amazing and fast. I got my friends with iphones thinking of switching and you come and tell me pixel 9 is fast 😢 they really have no limit to where they are going
I stopped trying to keep up with the latest and greatest. I was just wasting money buying each year.. i now have a oneplus 12 pro and galaxy a35. I think I'll be satisfied with what I have for the next couple of years
I like the fact that you are practical in your reviews and get real about features. While some things sound great, in reality, it really can be gimmicky and that is what people need to know. I was on the fence about the Pixel 9 Pro XL vs S24 Ultra. I'm still not 100% sure but you've definitely pushed me more into Samsung's camp. Nice video. Subscribed.
It would be good to remember that the S24 Ultra comes with 256G in UFS 4.0 and not 128G in UFS 3.1, But above all, the S24 Ultra has a processor that is 2 years ahead of the Tensor G4 and currently does not cost $1300, but $1000-$1100. These Pixel 9 Pro / 9 Pro XL are not bad smartphones, but they are actually way too expensive for what they are, they are are not even on par or compete with the iPhones 14 Pro / 14 Pro Max and S23 Ultra, so S24 Ultra / iPhone 15 Pro Max 🤷🏽♂️, they can try to compete with the S23 Plus / iPhone 14 Pro standard, and even then, the only thing they do better than the S23 Plus / iPhone 14 Pro is zoom, and above all, Gemini (Google Ai) is not even exclusive to the Pixel, so 🤷🏽♂️
Honestly, after living with a P7a for a year, having a phone without Google search permanently on the home screen is worth the upgrade and transition between brands.
I have both the P9P XL and the S24 Ultra. I have to say i was always a vanilla Android fan, but One UI current version is really cool and makes me want to go back to the S24 Ultra tike and again. And the S24 Ultra screen is like crack, can not get enough of it. And I actually like the Samsung themes, so easy to just pay $2 and change everything for a day or two ...
Unfortunately it seems maybe* you are sponsored by Samsung or something. Looking at your benchmarks you are using Geekbench 5.5.1 on the Pixel vs 6.3.0 on Samsung S24 U. Actual scores from Pixel on version 6.3.0 are 1894 Single and 4512 Multi. Still behind Snapdragon but not that exaggerated. I think most of people want fair and honest reviews. So your tittle of Brutally honest is not that honest at all. Thank you but can't follow.
I use temperature sensor alot...Ex. I was traveling around country and i was looking for lake and rivers to swim in. I was able to see what the temp of the water was before i jumped in. When you are in Montana this is important especially if you dont live in the area.
Samsung S24 Ultra all day. With the Pixel getting more expensive and getting in the iPhone and Samsung flagship price point, it makes it lose the value proposition it enjoyed. Especially when you consider hardware and processor in Samsung demolishes the Pixel.
I just can't deal with Samsung's software and prefer pure android. I tried Samsung, but having multiple contact apps, etc, just weighs down the premium hardware
Does Samsung bug you to open stuff using their app? Like their internet app instead of chrome, or their photo or messages app instead of Google photos? I haven't used a Samsung since the galaxy S8.... I currently own a pixel 7 pro, Im waiting for the pixel 10, in the meantime I'm considering a Samsung pre owned phone when my data plan expires in a few months.
@@Gspec5you are not forced to use any of Samsungs Apps (besides for example Good Lock or Samsung gear but this is understandable). You can just deactivate or delete Samsungs apps and you are good👍
@@Gspec5 Samsung's camera default to their own app for editing and viewing, so it's cumbersome and not as good. For instance their app doesn't have the same photo search capabilities. You'll have two contacts apps, and the only difference is colour, so you may accidentally add people to Samsung's. You'll have two app stores. Plus the software just isn't as good. I loved the quality of the hardware and have had their phones twice now. S22 ultra and an older note. I now have a pixel 8, and getting a pixel 9 pro fold.
@@jordanjackson8873 google and Samsung both have contact apps. If you're a long time google user, it sucks to be intercepted by Samsung in certain situations without the ability to uninstall. Why would you want to have contacts dispersed across two platforms? I've had multiple Samsung and Google phones and design apps. Perhaps you misunderstood
The problem is that this pixel is not better than the samsung in all the ways, so it s not worth it, since the new samsung is released in a few months and until then, the s24 ultra, with 256gb, is 100€ cheaper
This is an excellent opinion / review of these two phones, thank you for taking the time to create this comparison! Curious.. what do you use for a daily driver?
Hmmm. I was really optimistic about the video quality. I was hoping this is the year the pixel would do the same, if not better than the iPhone in video shooting quality. It seems for a creator who uses his phone to create social media video content on the go, the iPhone is still the way to go. But I have used android for the most part of my life. I love the pixels so much even tho I have never owned one. Off I have all the money to spend, I would get a pixel 9 pro as my main device, and an iPhone for social media and video production. Thanks for this review KJ
@@CallMeKJOSThe transition between lenses is way too dramatic, they need to find a way to fix that, although if video boost is applied it becomes way smoother tho, but they should make it on device
I recently bought the 24 ultra. I didnt even know pixel 9 is about to eb released. I would have bought a pixel if it had free 1 year youtube premium and offered 60-90 watt fast charging. As it stands, the inferior chipset and ufs 3.1 for pixels are turnoffs.
@anuragprasad8924 with my usage, i charge once aday. I have about 20 percent left on 4G all day, dual sim, and about 2 hours of video calls. Maybe 2-3 hours of watching videos or movies.
Im a pixel and a samsung fan, the xl is a really good phone but the 24 ultra is a great phone. It just does more and dthingsst things better in my opinion. what im really curious about is.if the pixel fold 2 can dethrone the fold 6 as foldable king. That is going to be much closer i think, wish my pixel fold 2 would hurry up and get here so i can see for myself lol (had the fold 6 since launch). Really great video, fair and very concise and your production is very clean!
I didnt like the large rounded edges at first, noticed the phone doesnt stab you when bending over anymore 😅👍 Only issue is U.I. related. Because of the rounded edge it cuts off corner buttons on some apps like Snapchat
As the owner of a clothing brand, I find the S Pen on my S23 Ultra to be an invaluable tool for quick and efficient design work. It is a great asset for designers who need to work quickly and efficiently.
Given that I feel the Pixel 9 pro is an overpriced upper midrange phone. I think a better comparison would be against the S24+. Until the Pixel line gets a comparable soc to the Flagships of Apple or Samsung it will remain an AI vector. Even the cameras on the competition have caught up significantly to the Pixel line. Tensor is the fatal Achilles heel of the Pixel line.
I have a few questions. Please help me find answers. 1. Does Pixel outputs images in 50 MP or 12 MP? Pixel 8 images were Pixel binned 12 MP images. Even though sensor is 50 MP. I have found the images losing clarity on Zooming compared to my iPhone. 2. Can the telephoto be used to take portraits? iPhones have this option to take beautiful portraits using 5x/3x lens, which no one talks about 3. Do they support HEIF/HEIC format? It is sad the none of the previous Pixels supported HEIF, which is half the file size of a regular JPG file... I am currently using iPhone 15 and is planning to make a switch to the P9Pro
1. Yes, but only the Pro models in pro camera mode. 2. No, only with the main camera. For me, the tele camera with natural bokeh is good enough. There is an option to enable a similar effect in Google Photos after you took the picture. 3. Pretty sure not.
Nice Video, Got a link or where to find the background you use on your Pixel? Currently an iOS user but use to use Nexus/Pixels up until the iPhone X. Hoping this is enough to bring me back. Cant stand using the Samsungs for photo’s of my children or pets, just a blurry mess
How do you crossplatform pictures and videos with your Mac and Samsung/Pixel? Im considering the S24U myself, but it's hard to get out of the tall walled garden of Apple!
I think most of what you get from apples ecosystem is easy file transfer and seamless connections between several devices. If you're looking to switch, start with using alternative software that achieve the same benefits as apple Even if they're a bit less convenient. Then slowly make the switch from one device to the next over the years.
I dont like the fact that you can't unlock the pixel with fingerprint when idle without waking it up, then battery king is actually honor magic 6 pro for Androids beating the ip15pro max also. I see the portrait is still awful on pixel and Google need to start investing on improving their camera hardware, it's showing its age with over processed photos sometimes or hard situations. Compared to like xiaomi 14 ultra or vivo x100 pro. Video boost also is not going to typical for everyone cause it requires internet, large storage and patience😂. Well overall it's a decent phone that still needs to improve. For i have to say its overpriced especially with 128gb starting storage size. Also the zoom transition between lenses is terrible compared to the iPhone. I don't know when they would fix that together with social media camera integration
@@CallMeKJOS That's another battery killer, I can unlock my phone from idle on my xiaomi 11 ultra without touching the power button or AOD. Does it allow to set a double tap to wake?
I’m an iPhone 15 Pro user and I agree with you. The S-Pen I really believe is what predominantly separates this phone from the Google phone. I believe it says a lot about the demographics between the users of both phones. Pixels users may be more AI/ social media driven, whereas S24 Ultra users are more multitasking/ power users.
Heres are my findings so far...upgrading from a s22 ultra. I tested the s24 ultra and the pixel 9 xl in store hefore choosing the google pixel. I was a little disappointed that the layout on the s24 looked the exact same as my s22 literally everything. The only thing that was diffeeent was the screen resolution. I use the file management system and video more than i do pictures and the samsung hands down is a file management beast.no slow downs no messing about. Usb amd large videos are recognized quickly. Also the built in video player is better than the google photos player. When it comes to the pixel there it feels a little slow when scanning thru files. As far as video i prefer the pixels smoothness. Ive put thw samsung thru its paces and have experienced slow down after shooting for a bit and this translates to the image quality when zooming in and out run and gun style. The phone gets hot and starts to lag, there has also been instances where the camera took a while to open on my s22 after some heavy use and yhen force closed, so i was a bit leary and didnt want to experience this again. The form factor of the pixel 9 XL is better and feels just tight after adding a case and the camera bump helps u with handling the phone with dexterity. For me the pixel heats up fairly quickly but didnt lag so thats a plus. Another reason why i opted for the pixel was that the s22 ultra started having chronic antenna issues which samsung knew about anlfter some nonsense update, and then kept sending updates trying to fix it which it never did.
People have all the time in the world to wait for video boost😅 people just take videos and then forget about them! And if you want to look at the video before the video boost is done, you get the preview so I really don't think that this is a problem
You mentioned changing the USB cable for fast charging but that is redundant. You need to be using a fast charging power brick. 45W min otherwise your results are not accurate. A good overall review and comparison though.
I have a. Iphone a s24 ultra and the 6 fold. Was thinking bout getting the pixel 9 xl but I think u just sold me on not sending the fold back n getting the pixel. I like the pixels design but like u said the s24 is a beast
at minute 7:30 you discussed the charging speed. Your results differ significantly from other tech reviewers, who mentioned getting similar to the Google claimed speed. GSM Arena review got a result of 67% charge in 30 minutes. I am wondering what type of charger you used. Is it a PPS charger? PPS 45W would be necessary to get the claimed speeds by Google, and your results do not seem to be accurate. Edit: also, at 10:15 the Gemini icon is blue, not red, which indicates that Gemini Advanced is not being used. I wonder if this is why the response was wildly inaccurate, since Advanced is a far superior model? Do you have Gemini Advanced enabled?
@@DJ-ru4im that's weird. Ive done this test like 5-6 times and gave up. Definitely did not have 67% in 30 mins. I also watched MKBHD and he said his charged only up to 37/38Watts instead of 45W. I used a 66W charger.
@@CallMeKJOS MKBHD is correct that 37W is the max charging speed for the XL, as claimed by Google. Google does not claim 45W charging, but rather sells a 45W PPS charger that covers the max of 37W. If it is charging at 37W, then it should charge from 0 to 70 in about 30 minutes. It doesn't matter if you use a 75W or 100W charger, the output will come down to the level accepted by the phone, and PPS is the technology that makes the phone charge more rapidly and efficiently. -The PCMag Pixel 9 Pro XL Review found that the phone charged from 0 to 100 in 1 hour and 25 mins. -The GSM Arena review found that the phone charged from 0 to 100 in 1 hour and 18 mins. These two results are comparable to each other, so if your phone is taking an hour/hour and a half to get to 70% I think that is a charger issue, and not a phone issue. I would suggest finding a PPS charger that is compatible to see if that resolves the issue. Either way, I will be receiving my Pixel Pro XL tomorrow, so I will be able to test it soon!
@@CallMeKJOS Also, one other thing I am thinking of. Are you using a power adapter that has more than one port? If so, the different ports usually have different max outputs, with one having a much higher output than the others. Further, if you connect more than one device at the same time in the different ports, then total output (66W in your case) would be divided, for example 33W/33W with two devices connected.
GREAT review!! My personal pixel journey... I got the 4a back when it came out, and I loved it! Stellar little budget camera. I finally upgraded to the 8 pro when THAT came out, and I was EXTREMELY disappointed. NOT worth the price imo. So many broken/failed promises as well. Google really needs to innovate their camera more... Oh well, at least I (hopefully) have 6 more years of updates 😂
I am upgrading from my beloved Note 10+. I love this phone so much it has gotten damaged over the years. It's going to be hard to let it retire. I was offered an amazing deal on the pixel 9 pro xl from Verizon. I couldn't turn it down since i was in the market for an upgrade. I wanted the s24 ultra. There are no good deals and they are so expensive. Even refurbished one. So I have to go back to not having a sPen 😢. Thats my biggest hesitation. I have watched many reviews on these phones. I really liked yours. I personly played with the phones at the store compared them side by side. I like the feel of the round corners better. I loved the pixel cameras. It's not over processes and amazing quality. I buy smart phones for the camreas. I think the Pixel has the better camrea set up. I will miss the Spen. I will not miss all the stupid samsung apps. I look foward to pure Android. I also heard the Pixels plays nice with Apple. Samsung and Apple do not play nice together.
I'm waiting for the 10 or 11 XL PIXEL as well and opting for the Samsung s24 plus+ as of now! Sadly I'm leaving Motorola Edge Plus+ it's a great mid-range phone but it's lack of updates's and now buggy issues after 2 years is irritating AF! I would definitely consider a Motorola phone as a backup phone for sure as I absolutely love the shake and rattle flashlight and camera feature that they have patented on their devices... If Motorola made just 3 or 4 phone's ranging from low, mid, high, and hi-end flagship specs I would be stoked but they opt for selling numerous different crappy budget phone's with not enough updates! Motorola makes their money making CB radio's and ham radio's that's their primary money maker and selling phones is just a side hustle for them! I really wish they made superior phone's because they could some mega beast droid's if they wanted too!!!!
why do people change phones yearly or every 2 years? your pixel 8 pro has 6 more (7 total) years of software updates and security patches ahead of it Lol
As far as fast charging goes did you use the official google 40w charging brick, to fast charge the device? Because that matters what kind of results your going to get as advertised All the fast charging devices that I've had from the OnePlus 9 pro to the pixel 7 pro. How fast it charged depending on the type of cables I used and the correct charging brick
Yeah, I spoke to someone in the comments and they let me know. I have an M3 Pro MacBook and used it's charging brick to charge the Pixel. After research, I only found out it emits 14Ws so I ordered the new one from Google. I'll test and update you guys
I had the s24 ultra but now have the 9 pro xl. The pixel is next level smooth. Don't worry about what people say. The screen isn't all that on the Samsung and it isn't all that when it comes to real world useage
Thanks for being honest. Nobody has that spare time to waste on 3 to 7 hours just for a 10-minute video boost. Come on, it ain't worth the for those people who are here in the United States.

Have also had issues with thermal throttling in bright light. Was in Greece and could barely see my screen. For the first time in a long time, I am not upgrading to the s25 until I am comfortable the screen issues have been fixed.
@@stephenrye6474 yup! i can testify this, regarding the screen coating. ive had my S24U for 6months exact now. ive had a screen protector on the entire time. it was peeling the other day so i took it off, decided to try to use the phone without one for once. the literal next day, i tried cleaning the screen with my cloth as normal, and a bunch of weird smudges started to appear. had to ask on reddit to find out it was the coating wearing/coming off. according to some users, taking a screen protector can also take off the coating, as well as using alcohol to clean the screen. at the same time, some users report theirs coming off without having any protectors on and/or cleaning the screen. i have a family member whos had their S24U since march, and their's is coming off too and they never put on a protector on their phone. so the major selling point for this phone is actually a temporary feature.
You used a 45 watt charger for the charging test, right?
How is the spen a gimmick?? If you don't use it, thats fine. But its very useful to those who use it
Just my opinion but it is less of a gimmick than all this AI stuff on the Pixel 9s. The spen is usefull for some very often for others just from time to time.
But this AI stuff.....you try it once, think it is ok and then never use it agaim because the features are EXTREMELY niche and not reliable enough.
@@hannesh.3024exactly. I've used the S pen to remotely take pictures, and I've used it for online signatures.
I'm fortunate to not be a busy person. Once upon a time I was caregiver for my husband's sister and for him. They both had several health issues, which meant several doctor appointments. And, during covid, the cell phone had to be topped off before I went anywhere because, in the city I live in, we had to park, call the desk to check in, wait for someone to come out to the car to ask the usual list of questions, zap our foreheads for our temperatures, then abandon us until the desk called us to say, "come on in". I also found it easier and faster to keep track of appointments in the calendar app, and keep the necessary information required for both my sister-in-law and husband in a notes app. So, faster charge times would have been a plus back in 2020, but I managed by plugging in every evening so as not to worry about running out of juice. Now they are both gone so I no longer have to worry about keeping my phone charged to the max daily. In fact, my S22 Ultra usually has to get plugged in every three days or so now! I am (obviously) starting to look at the newer phones, and the Pixel has piqued my interest for a while. But, I'm afraid I will miss the stylus that I am used to having going back to my Note 9, so this new search is taking me more time then I anticipated.
It would be more helpful to tell us more specific details on how long the battery can go on a charge. For example the battery percentage left after X amount of hours.
gratz didn't expect such a good production from a "small" channel , good work really
Thank you!
Man if Google could just swallow their pride and drop Tensor for snapdragon. Hopefully with the 10! Awesome video brother!
Nope, they are using tsmc for the G5
They would never because the reason google uses the g4 isn’t for speed. They specially design the tensor chips for pixel phones to make ai integration the tightest and fastest of any smartphones (you can see that with the on device ai which processes far faster than any other device). A major selling point of the pixel is these ai features and removing them takes away from a major distinguishing factor for the phone.

No way. Stick with your own and keep building. Why quit on Tensor so fast smh

Thanks my bro.
Its crazy i use a pixel 6 from an s21 and honestly its amazing and fast. I got my friends with iphones thinking of switching and you come and tell me pixel 9 is fast 😢 they really have no limit to where they are going
I stopped trying to keep up with the latest and greatest. I was just wasting money buying each year.. i now have a oneplus 12 pro and galaxy a35. I think I'll be satisfied with what I have for the next couple of years
I like the fact that you are practical in your reviews and get real about features. While some things sound great, in reality, it really can be gimmicky and that is what people need to know.
I was on the fence about the Pixel 9 Pro XL vs S24 Ultra. I'm still not 100% sure but you've definitely pushed me more into Samsung's camp.
Nice video. Subscribed.
S24 ultra you can get it for similar price or cheaper, easy to find deals for it.
Agreed and Pixel 9 Pro XL is charging 1099 for 128GB like come on
It would be good to remember that the S24 Ultra comes with 256G in UFS 4.0 and not 128G in UFS 3.1, But above all, the S24 Ultra has a processor that is 2 years ahead of the Tensor G4 and currently does not cost $1300, but $1000-$1100.
These Pixel 9 Pro / 9 Pro XL are not bad smartphones, but they are actually way too expensive for what they are, they are are not even on par or compete with the iPhones 14 Pro / 14 Pro Max and S23 Ultra, so S24 Ultra / iPhone 15 Pro Max 🤷🏽♂️, they can try to compete with the S23 Plus / iPhone 14 Pro standard, and even then, the only thing they do better than the S23 Plus / iPhone 14 Pro is zoom, and above all, Gemini (Google Ai) is not even exclusive to the Pixel, so 🤷🏽♂️
Honestly, after living with a P7a for a year, having a phone without Google search permanently on the home screen is worth the upgrade and transition between brands.
I just got the 9 Pro XL today, and so far I'm absolutely loving it!!!!
I have both the P9P XL and the S24 Ultra. I have to say i was always a vanilla Android fan, but One UI current version is really cool and makes me want to go back to the S24 Ultra tike and again. And the S24 Ultra screen is like crack, can not get enough of it. And I actually like the Samsung themes, so easy to just pay $2 and change everything for a day or two ...
Beautiful studio, well made video. Keep it up, bro 💪🏾
In Europe u do not get all AI on pixel but on s24u you get it all
Very true. Many Pixel buyers outside the USA are not even aware of this.
Nice review, your videos are clean 👍
Unfortunately it seems maybe* you are sponsored by Samsung or something. Looking at your benchmarks you are using Geekbench 5.5.1 on the Pixel vs 6.3.0 on Samsung S24 U. Actual scores from Pixel on version 6.3.0 are 1894 Single and 4512 Multi. Still behind Snapdragon but not that exaggerated. I think most of people want fair and honest reviews. So your tittle of Brutally honest is not that honest at all. Thank you but can't follow.
Thank you for the excellent discussion of the photo features! You've helped me a lot!
Glad it helped you out bro!

Excellent video, great points !
The Samsung display looks obviously better in this video.
Samsung S24 Ultra all day. With the Pixel getting more expensive and getting in the iPhone and Samsung flagship price point, it makes it lose the value proposition it enjoyed. Especially when you consider hardware and processor in Samsung demolishes the Pixel.
I absolutely my s24 ultra and galaxy watch ultra but man this pixel 9 pro xl is tempting lol
I just can't deal with Samsung's software and prefer pure android. I tried Samsung, but having multiple contact apps, etc, just weighs down the premium hardware
Does Samsung bug you to open stuff using their app? Like their internet app instead of chrome, or their photo or messages app instead of Google photos? I haven't used a Samsung since the galaxy S8....
I currently own a pixel 7 pro, Im waiting for the pixel 10, in the meantime I'm considering a Samsung pre owned phone when my data plan expires in a few months.
@@Gspec5you are not forced to use any of Samsungs Apps (besides for example Good Lock or Samsung gear but this is understandable). You can just deactivate or delete Samsungs apps and you are good👍
@@Gspec5 Samsung's camera default to their own app for editing and viewing, so it's cumbersome and not as good. For instance their app doesn't have the same photo search capabilities. You'll have two contacts apps, and the only difference is colour, so you may accidentally add people to Samsung's. You'll have two app stores. Plus the software just isn't as good. I loved the quality of the hardware and have had their phones twice now. S22 ultra and an older note. I now have a pixel 8, and getting a pixel 9 pro fold.
There's is literally 1 contact app, so I know you haven't actually used the phone 😂😂
@@jordanjackson8873 google and Samsung both have contact apps. If you're a long time google user, it sucks to be intercepted by Samsung in certain situations without the ability to uninstall. Why would you want to have contacts dispersed across two platforms? I've had multiple Samsung and Google phones and design apps. Perhaps you misunderstood
I cannot justify paying over 1k for a phone with a TOC from 2020.
Sketch to image and Google AI editing are some of the most brilliant features of all time
7:15 did you use pixel's or anker's 45w charging block? I saw somewhere it needs that block to unlock those charging speeds
@@ijamorris yup. I used my MacBook pro charger. Didn't work so I've ordered the 45W charger from Google
@@CallMeKJOS oh ok. Hopefully that helps with the OEM.
The problem is that this pixel is not better than the samsung in all the ways, so it s not worth it, since the new samsung is released in a few months and until then, the s24 ultra, with 256gb, is 100€ cheaper
S24 Ultra is nearly 400euro cheaper in Ireland😮
What about the grainy display on s24 Ultra?
This is an excellent opinion / review of these two phones, thank you for taking the time to create this comparison! Curious.. what do you use for a daily driver?
Appreciate you, Joe. Currently using the Pixel 9 pro XL. Going to move to the Pixel 9 for testing with the other phones.
Hmmm.
I was really optimistic about the video quality. I was hoping this is the year the pixel would do the same, if not better than the iPhone in video shooting quality. It seems for a creator who uses his phone to create social media video content on the go, the iPhone is still the way to go.
But I have used android for the most part of my life. I love the pixels so much even tho I have never owned one. Off I have all the money to spend, I would get a pixel 9 pro as my main device, and an iPhone for social media and video production.
Thanks for this review KJ
I still think the video quality is good but the iPhone/Samsung are slightly better.
@@CallMeKJOSThe transition between lenses is way too dramatic, they need to find a way to fix that, although if video boost is applied it becomes way smoother tho, but they should make it on device
I recently bought the 24 ultra. I didnt even know pixel 9 is about to eb released. I would have bought a pixel if it had free 1 year youtube premium and offered 60-90 watt fast charging.
As it stands, the inferior chipset and ufs 3.1 for pixels are turnoffs.
How is the battery backup? And what is the screen on time in s24 ultra?
@anuragprasad8924 with my usage, i charge once aday. I have about 20 percent left on 4G all day, dual sim, and about 2 hours of video calls. Maybe 2-3 hours of watching videos or movies.
Im a pixel and a samsung fan, the xl is a really good phone but the 24 ultra is a great phone. It just does more and dthingsst things better in my opinion. what im really curious about is.if the pixel fold 2 can dethrone the fold 6 as foldable king. That is going to be much closer i think, wish my pixel fold 2 would hurry up and get here so i can see for myself lol (had the fold 6 since launch).
Really great video, fair and very concise and your production is very clean!
I see also you're interested in doing a AWS course. How have you found it and what tips would you give anyone also interested
ultra all day better build quality better processor better battery pixel is still years behind apple and Samsung
you deserve more subscribers for sure!
I appreciate that!
I didnt like the large rounded edges at first, noticed the phone doesnt stab you when bending over anymore 😅👍 Only issue is U.I. related. Because of the rounded edge it cuts off corner buttons on some apps like Snapchat
As the owner of a clothing brand, I find the S Pen on my S23 Ultra to be an invaluable tool for quick and efficient design work. It is a great asset for designers who need to work quickly and efficiently.
Samsung galaxy s24 ultra is still the better phone overall
Absolutely 💯
Not even by a mile
@ulucio86 it def is better the pixel cameras are great tho the s24 ultra is way more powerful snap dragon 8 Gen 3 blows the tensor g4 out the water
May be, but is too big and too much rectangular
just not for the price
Given that I feel the Pixel 9 pro is an overpriced upper midrange phone. I think a better comparison would be against the S24+. Until the Pixel line gets a comparable soc to the Flagships of Apple or Samsung it will remain an AI vector. Even the cameras on the competition have caught up significantly to the Pixel line. Tensor is the fatal Achilles heel of the Pixel line.
I have a few questions. Please help me find answers.
1. Does Pixel outputs images in 50 MP or 12 MP? Pixel 8 images were Pixel binned 12 MP images. Even though sensor is 50 MP. I have found the images losing clarity on Zooming compared to my iPhone.
2. Can the telephoto be used to take portraits? iPhones have this option to take beautiful portraits using 5x/3x lens, which no one talks about
3. Do they support HEIF/HEIC format? It is sad the none of the previous Pixels supported HEIF, which is half the file size of a regular JPG file...
I am currently using iPhone 15 and is planning to make a switch to the P9Pro
1. Yes, but only the Pro models in pro camera mode.
2. No, only with the main camera. For me, the tele camera with natural bokeh is good enough. There is an option to enable a similar effect in Google Photos after you took the picture.
3. Pretty sure not.
That thumbnail Jesus I didn't realize the camera on the pixel looked that big and chunky
Dex is the number reason i cant switch from Samsung. Wish others will offer something similar.
What watts was your charging block
Watching on my s24 ultra and yes i use the s pen everyday. Btw great review
Nice Video, Got a link or where to find the background you use on your Pixel? Currently an iOS user but use to use Nexus/Pixels up until the iPhone X. Hoping this is enough to bring me back. Cant stand using the Samsungs for photo’s of my children or pets, just a blurry mess
I got the wallpaper from an app called backdrops
Loved your work❤❤❤❤
Great review!
Great review.

@@shaunvill9330 🙏🏿🙏🏿
How do you crossplatform pictures and videos with your Mac and Samsung/Pixel? Im considering the S24U myself, but it's hard to get out of the tall walled garden of Apple!
I think most of what you get from apples ecosystem is easy file transfer and seamless connections between several devices.
If you're looking to switch, start with using alternative software that achieve the same benefits as apple Even if they're a bit less convenient.
Then slowly make the switch from one device to the next over the years.
Why fix it , if it’s not broken. Stick with Apple 🍎 its ecosystem is impeccable
Do you need Internet to generate the images?...
I dont like the fact that you can't unlock the pixel with fingerprint when idle without waking it up, then battery king is actually honor magic 6 pro for Androids beating the ip15pro max also.
I see the portrait is still awful on pixel and Google need to start investing on improving their camera hardware, it's showing its age with over processed photos sometimes or hard situations. Compared to like xiaomi 14 ultra or vivo x100 pro.
Video boost also is not going to typical for everyone cause it requires internet, large storage and patience😂. Well overall it's a decent phone that still needs to improve. For i have to say its overpriced especially with 128gb starting storage size.
Also the zoom transition between lenses is terrible compared to the iPhone. I don't know when they would fix that together with social media camera integration
Technically you can if you have AOD.
@@CallMeKJOS That's another battery killer, I can unlock my phone from idle on my xiaomi 11 ultra without touching the power button or AOD. Does it allow to set a double tap to wake?
Awesome Informative ❤️🔥✌🏻
I didn't count the time of charging. But it's a massive improvement over the 7 pro which I came from. 9 pro xl reaches 37W it's peak.
The S-Pen is not a gimmick on any level… It’s quite functional in many ways. Great video either way, new sub 👍🏾
I’m an iPhone 15 Pro user and I agree with you. The S-Pen I really believe is what predominantly separates this phone from the Google phone. I believe it says a lot about the demographics between the users of both phones. Pixels users may be more AI/ social media driven, whereas S24 Ultra users are more multitasking/ power users.
Heres are my findings so far...upgrading from a s22 ultra. I tested the s24 ultra and the pixel 9 xl in store hefore choosing the google pixel. I was a little disappointed that the layout on the s24 looked the exact same as my s22 literally everything. The only thing that was diffeeent was the screen resolution.
I use the file management system and video more than i do pictures and the samsung hands down is a file management beast.no slow downs no messing about. Usb amd large videos are recognized quickly. Also the built in video player is better than the google photos player. When it comes to the pixel there it feels a little slow when scanning thru files.
As far as video i prefer the pixels smoothness. Ive put thw samsung thru its paces and have experienced slow down after shooting for a bit and this translates to the image quality when zooming in and out run and gun style. The phone gets hot and starts to lag, there has also been instances where the camera took a while to open on my s22 after some heavy use and yhen force closed, so i was a bit leary and didnt want to experience this again.
The form factor of the pixel 9 XL is better and feels just tight after adding a case and the camera bump helps u with handling the phone with dexterity. For me the pixel heats up fairly quickly but didnt lag so thats a plus.
Another reason why i opted for the pixel was that the s22 ultra started having chronic antenna issues which samsung knew about anlfter some nonsense update, and then kept sending updates trying to fix it which it never did.
Coming from S22 Ultra and upgrading my phone I could not really get into One Ui.. It's not intuitive. Google layout just makes sense
People have all the time in the world to wait for video boost😅 people just take videos and then forget about them! And if you want to look at the video before the video boost is done, you get the preview so I really don't think that this is a problem
I don't think so especially when you want to post online.
@@CallMeKJOS True
Don't forget to go to display settings on your pixel and change from high resolution to full resolution.
You will sacrifice battery life so best to only set when watching steaming
You mentioned changing the USB cable for fast charging but that is redundant. You need to be using a fast charging power brick. 45W min otherwise your results are not accurate. A good overall review and comparison though.
Which one u think is better ?
I have a. Iphone a s24 ultra and the 6 fold. Was thinking bout getting the pixel 9 xl but I think u just sold me on not sending the fold back n getting the pixel. I like the pixels design but like u said the s24 is a beast
Geekbench 5 vs geekbench 6 is a little disengeuous because they score differently.
at minute 7:30 you discussed the charging speed. Your results differ significantly from other tech reviewers, who mentioned getting similar to the Google claimed speed. GSM Arena review got a result of 67% charge in 30 minutes. I am wondering what type of charger you used. Is it a PPS charger? PPS 45W would be necessary to get the claimed speeds by Google, and your results do not seem to be accurate.
Edit: also, at 10:15 the Gemini icon is blue, not red, which indicates that Gemini Advanced is not being used. I wonder if this is why the response was wildly inaccurate, since Advanced is a far superior model? Do you have Gemini Advanced enabled?
@@DJ-ru4im that's weird. Ive done this test like 5-6 times and gave up. Definitely did not have 67% in 30 mins. I also watched MKBHD and he said his charged only up to 37/38Watts instead of 45W. I used a 66W charger.
@@DJ-ru4im to your edit yes it was enabled but to your comment I'll give it another test to be sure.
@@CallMeKJOS MKBHD is correct that 37W is the max charging speed for the XL, as claimed by Google. Google does not claim 45W charging, but rather sells a 45W PPS charger that covers the max of 37W. If it is charging at 37W, then it should charge from 0 to 70 in about 30 minutes. It doesn't matter if you use a 75W or 100W charger, the output will come down to the level accepted by the phone, and PPS is the technology that makes the phone charge more rapidly and efficiently.
-The PCMag Pixel 9 Pro XL Review found that the phone charged from 0 to 100 in 1 hour and 25 mins.
-The GSM Arena review found that the phone charged from 0 to 100 in 1 hour and 18 mins.
These two results are comparable to each other, so if your phone is taking an hour/hour and a half to get to 70% I think that is a charger issue, and not a phone issue. I would suggest finding a PPS charger that is compatible to see if that resolves the issue. Either way, I will be receiving my Pixel Pro XL tomorrow, so I will be able to test it soon!
@@DJ-ru4im thanks for this bro. I'll check this and let you know.
@@CallMeKJOS Also, one other thing I am thinking of. Are you using a power adapter that has more than one port? If so, the different ports usually have different max outputs, with one having a much higher output than the others. Further, if you connect more than one device at the same time in the different ports, then total output (66W in your case) would be divided, for example 33W/33W with two devices connected.
GREAT review!! My personal pixel journey... I got the 4a back when it came out, and I loved it! Stellar little budget camera. I finally upgraded to the 8 pro when THAT came out, and I was EXTREMELY disappointed. NOT worth the price imo. So many broken/failed promises as well. Google really needs to innovate their camera more... Oh well, at least I (hopefully) have 6 more years of updates 😂
Thanks for watching bro. Gonna give the 9 Pro XL it's redemption?
The charging is not upto 45, it is in fact 37w Max
The screens are not equal the anti glare on the 24 Ultra puts it in a class of its own.
The S pen is awesome ! I got back into colouring because of it, nothing beats colouring when youre pissed off, puts the mind at ease lolll
I ended up returning my xl pro. I feel like its perfectly built but the processor is just not good enough
I am upgrading from my beloved Note 10+. I love this phone so much it has gotten damaged over the years. It's going to be hard to let it retire.
I was offered an amazing deal on the pixel 9 pro xl from Verizon. I couldn't turn it down since i was in the market for an upgrade.
I wanted the s24 ultra. There are no good deals and they are so expensive. Even refurbished one. So I have to go back to not having a sPen 😢. Thats my biggest hesitation.
I have watched many reviews on these phones. I really liked yours. I personly played with the phones at the store compared them side by side. I like the feel of the round corners better. I loved the pixel cameras. It's not over processes and amazing quality. I buy smart phones for the camreas. I think the Pixel has the better camrea set up. I will miss the Spen. I will not miss all the stupid samsung apps.
I look foward to pure Android. I also heard the Pixels plays nice with Apple. Samsung and Apple do not play nice together.
Should I upgrade from the pixel 8pro or wait till next year, I can get a 492£ discount if I swap my pixel 8pro
The 10 should be a much bigger upgrade over the phone you currently have. If I had a 8/8 Pro I'd wait till next year.
I'm waiting for the 10 or 11 XL PIXEL as well and opting for the Samsung s24 plus+ as of now! Sadly I'm leaving Motorola Edge Plus+ it's a great mid-range phone but it's lack of updates's and now buggy issues after 2 years is irritating AF! I would definitely consider a Motorola phone as a backup phone for sure as I absolutely love the shake and rattle flashlight and camera feature that they have patented on their devices... If Motorola made just 3 or 4 phone's ranging from low, mid, high, and hi-end flagship specs I would be stoked but they opt for selling numerous different crappy budget phone's with not enough updates! Motorola makes their money making CB radio's and ham radio's that's their primary money maker and selling phones is just a side hustle for them! I really wish they made superior phone's because they could some mega beast droid's if they wanted too!!!!
Wait
Do it, I just ordered my p9p xl

My Number one phone reviewer so far, nice looking studio anyways.. love from Nigeria 🇳🇬
Thank.you bro
As far as fast charging goes did you use the official google 40w charging brick, to fast charge the device? Because that matters what kind of results your going to get as advertised
All the fast charging devices that I've had from the OnePlus 9 pro to the pixel 7 pro. How fast it charged depending on the type of cables I used and the correct charging brick
Yeah, I spoke to someone in the comments and they let me know. I have an M3 Pro MacBook and used it's charging brick to charge the Pixel. After research, I only found out it emits 14Ws so I ordered the new one from Google. I'll test and update you guys
I had the s24 ultra but now have the 9 pro xl. The pixel is next level smooth. Don't worry about what people say. The screen isn't all that on the Samsung and it isn't all that when it comes to real world useage
Thanks for being honest. Nobody has that spare time to waste on 3 to 7 hours just for a 10-minute video boost.
