I'm happy to wait what Nothing will bring out to the table too with my aforementioned "requirements". The base Find X8 isn't available in my country. If the Pixel 9 had a permanent price drop then i may be tempted. What do you guys think?

Also, Oppo FInd X8, if it's available. The regular, smaller one. Seems pretty potetnt. Yes... if I think about it... Find X8 is a beast! Hard to find small-ish phones with good specs and software.

I just feel I want a bit more now-ish...a brighter, more sharper, better HDR screen, better audio prowess (one with Dolby Atmos or equivalent), 12GB RAM the very least.
The Pixel 9 has reverted back to it's original £799. I could wait for the Pixel 9a but this all depends on my need and if it's "better" than a Pixel 8.
Any other suggestions?

Now, rumors have it it might come with the old Exynos 5300 modem, but... that 5100 mAh battery could make up for it. Please disregard previous message - wait for 9a - see what it's all about. Might be a better deal @ £499. It's only a month away, if you think about it.

I have a Pixel 8 right now and have unused discount codes.
Do you guys think it's worth upgrading to a Pixel 9? (As it's currently discounted down to £649 excluding trade-in though having to pay for the "full" price is a bit heavy for me and the potential trade-in discount will be sent much later).

Could be running MediaTek G36, for all I care, if it has such smooth animations and software. Big fan of Google products: Gboard, Phone, Gmail, Clock, Calculator, Files and, the star of the show: Weather.

They may be running a different OS from each other, and that's up to you to choose which OS do you prefer. Unlike android, you are unable to install files such as APK on Iphones, but this shouldn't be much of a concern since most of the applications can be installed directly from the App Stores. Camera performance are top notch for both devices. Iphone screen may only be 60hz but you are not really going to notice any smoothness issue because the animations on IOS are pretty smooth. Battery on the Iphone 16, especially the 16 plus should last longer than the Pixel 9, due to IOS better optimizations, and lower screen refresh rate. Also, the haptic feedback on Iphones are next level, far better than on the Pixel 9. There should also be more accessories to choose from, such as casing, for the Iphone compared to the Pixel. Nonetheless, theres nothing wrong choose either of the smartphone. Both are great. You should check out the display units in person for both models and test them out.

It would be nice to see Google streamline their updates into a single location/action and allow granular/manual updates as an option if desired. Having to check for updates in 5 places is pretty annoying and the case on all Pixel models. In contrast, Apple has this part worked out more conveniently. The phone itself is quite nice and for the money pretty hard to beat for what it has to offer. Wasn't a fan of what they did with the Pixel 8, how they gave it the 50MP camera sensor and locked down the camera to 12PM photos. It's nice to see they've gone away from this nonsense on this model.

This phone or iPhone 16? For context, I'm not really that heavy and power hungry user. The most demanding game I'll probably play is pubg which should play great even on the pixel with high settings. I'm currently using the old redmi note 10 pro and I'm tired of this miui thing. I knew that both phone offer reliable camera and some might argue the pixel have better picture quality than the iPhone and vice versa. Again I'm not really that hungry power user that play wuthering wave for 10 hours straight at highest setting so performance isn't really a problem. I could buy the pro version of both phone but I like the colour of the base model from both company. It's also similarly price here in Malaysia. Please help me
