If you're looking for a more budget-friendly option, the Apple iPhone 11 offers a good value with a respectable camera and decent battery life. However, if you prioritize having a higher quality camera for both still photos and videos, and appreciate a larger, more vibrant screen with better resolution, then the Google Pixel 7 Pro is an excellent choice, but it comes at a higher cost. Additionally, the Pixel 7 Pro has a longer battery life and offers features like a high refresh rate screen and 5G connectivity. Keep in mind the iPhone 11 uses iOS while the Pixel 7 Pro runs on Android, which may influence your decision based on your preferred ecosystem. Give Feedback

Tom's Guide
Mark Spoonauer | September 2021
"The iPhone 11 delivers superb cameras, fast performance and excellent battery life, making it the iPhone to buy for many people. The cameras are very good, thanks to an ultra-wide lens and a Night mode for better low-light performance. This device also has IP68-rated water resistance, which means that it can withstand 2 meters of water for 30 minutes, and is one of the best waterproof phones out there."

"The Pixel 7 Pro is good! The software is clean and quickly updated. The camera takes great pictures. The performance is a buttery smooth 120 fps. Those are all the reasons to buy it over anything else, especially its Android competition, where it sweeps every one of those categories."

About Apple
The tech giant called Apple is synonymous with the most popular smartphone in the world: the iPhone. Known for their build quality and aesthetics, as well as for their excellent integration between hardware and software, iPhones have defined the smartphone industry ever since their conception and they continue to do so by setting new industry standards. Apple's own operating system, called iOS, is known for its simplicity and ease of use, and the company tends to complement it well by creating devices with some of the most powerful processing hardware available in the mobile world. The iPhone is also known for its robust ecosystem of accessories, as it facilitates a very seamless experience when interacting with other Apple products, more so than most of its competitors.
About Google
Google can be considered a relatively new player in the smartphone industry, joining as late as 2016 with their phone, the Google Pixel. Since then, the Pixel lineup has undergone many changes, but it has always been characterized by a focus on photography and clean software, by providing a pure Android experience. By virtue of Google being the creator of the Android operating system, Pixels are known for receiving timely software updates and for being supported with updates for a long time. Additionally, over the past few generations of devices, Google started designing their own processors. This allowed for the implementation of unique software features that are not present in any other phone, such as automatic call screening and unique voice transcribing capabilities.
