Samsung’s new Galaxy Z Foldables will be on pre-order for another week, so let’s see Apple and Google’s offerings-the iPhone 16 and Pixel 9 are currently cutting some solid prices in both series.
Launching with large guns, Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max and Google Pixel 9 Pro XL have 6.9 “and 6.8” display, respectively, 120 Hz LTPO panels. Both have qualified cameras, though apparently on the iPhone has a upper hand with a 48MP 113 mm parasope against 12 MP 120 mm on the iPhone. See our iPhone 16 Pro Max vs Pixel 9 Pro XL Article for camera samples and a detailed comparison between both flagships.

Apple iPhone 16 Pro and Google Pixel 9 Pro have 6.3 “display, but the iPhone is 3 mm smaller and 0.5 mm tight. Both weigh 199 g 199 g. Besides, the two have cameras like their older siblings. Unfortunately, Amazon is still shorter on Pixel 9 Pro units.
Google’s Apple iPhone 16 Plus is not a direct competition – it is primarily an iPhone 16 with a 6.7 “display and a large 4,674mAh battery.
Therefore, we move towards 6.1 “Apple iPhone 16 and 6.3” Google Pixel 9. Pixel has a better battery life in the large main camera sensor (50MP 1/1.31 “vs. 48MP 1/1.56”) and high resolution ultra -wide (48MP vs. 12 MP) 13: 42H).
Finally, cheap models. Although in the case of Apple iPhone 16E, we will probably have to use air prices around “cheap”. It has the same camera on the back of the € 600+ phone, it has a small 48MP 1/2.55 “sensor. Google Pixel 9A is at least 13MP ultra wide to stand with at least 48MP 1/2.0” Main.
The iPhone also eats a wide mark in its 6.1 “display, while the cartoon hole on the 6.3” pixel display is less worried. Apple A18 Tancer is faster than G4, but Pixel has a better battery life (12: 42H vs. 11: 53h), though the main reason for this is due to the larger battery.
