    so, it's a slightly better battery performance against a slighlty more compact size, everything else is basically the same

    for me, the Pixel 8 is a no brainer for almost half the price

        Can't help but wonder if you have been prohibited from showing benchmark results by Google as part of getting a review unit. More transparency from you guys would be appreciated as to why there are no benchmark numbers.

          Pretty major that your Pixel 9 performed worse in benchmarks than the 8 you tested! That's something worth more information and discussion for your readers.

                Let's be real. The only thing apple does best is optimisation. Very soon, apple will be dethroned in terms of battery - more efficient Chipsets are on the way, and more battery technologies are to be released.
                Let's face it. Apple doesn't have the upper hand anymore.

                  Keep in mind that both the Samsung and Google chargers support not just PDO charging, but also the newer PPS standard. Without PPS, neither Samsung nor Google phones will charge at full speed. With Samsung in particular, you need to make sure the charger can output at least 4A (highest charging speed is around 11V/4A). Google isn't as bad: My Pixel 8 Pro prefers 10V/3A, so if your charger can only do 9V/3A, you don't lose out as much.

                    Eventhough im not an iPhone user and i don't like iOS UX and restrictions imposed by apple. But I think people should never compare android against iPhone based on specs. iOS is very resource efficient not a java bloat like android, android obviously needs more resources. so i think the statement iPhone 15 has a lower mAh battery is very much invalid here.
