Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “iPhone X vs Pixel 2, three months later”.
Okay, It’s been six months since Apple first announced the iPhone 10. And around five months since Google first announced the Pixel two and the Pixel two XL.. These are both great phones, which is what you might expect because they’re both flag ship phones., But after actually using them. After a while, it’s clear to me at least which one of these is the better phone.. You mean the one that doesn’t cost a thousand dollars and is still a fantastic phone., Uh no.. Oh, I missed this.. Now the iPhone 10 was a pretty radical redesign for Apple.. It’S the first iPhone without a home button.. It has an OLED display. It’S size is somewhere in between a regular sized iPhone and a plus iPhone., And you can unlock it with your face.. Okay, the smaller Pixel two doesn’t look all that different from the first Pixel., But the Pixel two XL looks different.. It has a nearly all screen front: design. Both have OLED displays and keep in mind. This is only Google’s 2nd generation of Pixel phones. And already they are up there competing with the top smartphone makers., Okay. Well, the iPhone 10 is fast. Like ridiculously fast..
It’S processor is faster than processors in a lot of laptops. In the time that I’ve been using it, I’ve been kind of blown away by it.. Well, the Pixel two is no slouch either., It’s running on a Snapdragon 835 processor, which is powering all of the top Android phones right now.. It might not be a bionic processor, but it’s still pretty fast..
One of the biggest changes with the iPhone 10, though, is that Apple has also redesigned the way you interact with the phone.. So the way you switch between apps or swipe to see notifications. Now that I’ve used this for a while. I really like it..
Okay I’ll admit it took me way longer to get used to these interactions than I thought it would., And I wouldn’t be surprised if other people got the new phone and hated it.. But now, when I pick up other phones, I just think the iPhone 10’s UI is probably the way to do it.. The Pixel two has some UI changes: too., Although that’s because of Android and not specific, to Pixels.
Like the search bar is now at the bottom of the home screen. And the display is always on which seems like a small thing. But after a few months, you kind of find that you can’t live without it..
One of the things that really annoys me about that phone is that if you just want to see the time you have to pick the phone up., No, I don’t.. Okay, what time is it (, gentle music, ), (, sigh )? Now, if you’ve been seriously considering these phones for the past few months, then you’ve probably read all of the camera comparisons.. In fact, the Verge did one that you should go check out., But, to sum it up, both of these phones have excellent cameras. On the Pixel two XL. A lot of the camera.
Improvements are happening on the software side., So, for example, this now shoots in portrait mode with a nice soft background which the iPhone has done for a while., But this one doesn’t have two cameras. Yeah, but the iPhone 10 not only has portrait mode. It also has studio lighting now., Like this. (, light music ) That looks awful.. Well, it’s pretty great when it works..
Okay, also. We think that the Pixel two XL shoots a little bit better in low light., Just saying. Yeah, but not that much better.. Also, the iPhone 10 and the iPhone eight both support wireless charging, which your phone doesn’t.
Yeah, but you can charge the Pixel two and the Pixel two XL with USBC, which is how I charge my MacBook, which means I’m just carrying around fewer cables.. Okay. Well, your phone doesn’t have a headphone jack., Neither does yours., I’m just pointing out that you’re finally catching up with the times.. Your point makes zero sense.
Another thing: you’re only going to get with the iPhone is Siri.. Now I know you may be thinking, “ Siri is useless.”, But the more I’ve used it, the better. It has gotten. You’re kidding right No..
Okay, let’s do a test., I’m gon na squeeze the phone. Who is the star of the movie ,’The Post’ [, Google Assistant Voice, ] Meryl Streep Tom Hanks and 13 others.? Okay, no problem., Hey Siri, Who is the star of the movie ,’The Post’ [ Siri ]? I found nine movies for you to chose from. Post Grad.
