  1. this is actually the best review i have ever seen. I like how it focused on things that are important and didnt waste 20 minutes of my time showing me what it looks like when you open the box and what the back of the phone looks like even though it will be in the case

    Nice review,

    One feature I miss from the Google Pixel (I converted to iPhone during the dreaded Pixel 6 hardware failures) is the ‘auto hold’, where it can detect when a human comes on the line and you can pick up again.

    1. Wow, awesome one. I have always wondered why that never made it to iOS. Presumably a patent.

    I’ve been using the iPhone for years, but I’m seriously tempted to switch to the Pixel 7 Pro after reading this comparison. That ‘Astrophotography mode’ sounds incredible, and I’m loving the idea of Google’s AI-powered photography enhancements. Does anyone have any personal experience with the new Pixels? Would be great to hear about their real-world performance.

  4. For Airdrop and The copy-paste between Mac OS and iOS, try out Kdeconnect. For me it does both beautifully, and as a bonus you can also copy across Speech-to-text from Gboard entry on Android which makes my drafting workflow easier.

    1. Oh thanks! Over the years I’ve tried a few things and had run out of steam. I will check it out.

  5. Thanks for this article. It highlights all of the tradeoffs that I’m considering (I also have an IPhone 13 Pro currently, and am a past Pixel aficionado, and am considering switching back since the P9s look so good).

    The sticky points for me are 1) I might miss Face Unlock (I tried a used P7 and the fingerprint unlock was TERRIBLE in comparison to Face Unlock) 2) I bought a M1 MacBook (the integration is convenient between iOS and macOS), I have officially drank the Apple Laptop Kool-Aid 3) I have AirPods now 4) my family (and most everyone else I know) uses iPhones/Messages-I’ll be a green bubble, but that actually entices me, since I want to break the hold that Messages has on US society and am trying to get WhatsApp to take hold in my circles.

    1. Similar to me. Change is good! But the continuity features keep me stuck on iPhones for now.

      Funny how Messages (which still says “iMessage in the chat window) has such a grip in the US. In Europe and Australia (and presumably elsewhere) it’s a non-issue.
