For similar prices, if camera quality is particularly important to you, the Google Pixel 7 has a slightly higher overall camera quality, but the OnePlus 11 offers a higher resolution selfie camera and an additional telephoto lens with more megapixels, which can be beneficial for zoomed-in shots. If screen size is a priority, the OnePlus 11 has a larger display, but the Google Pixel 7's smaller screen could make it more comfortable to hold. The OnePlus 11 also boasts a higher refresh rate, which might make animations and scrolling appear smoother. When it comes to battery life, the OnePlus outlasts the Pixel by a small margin, which could be noticeable if you're a heavy user. Both phones run on Android, offer 5G connectivity, and come without a headphone jack. Give Feedback

"I have no problem recommending the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro to those brave enough to look outside of the Apple / Samsung duopoly. They’re slightly better versions of the very good phones Google released last year. The Pixel 7 is a heck of a deal for someone who wants a flagship Android phone without paying flagship prices."

"The OnePlus 11 isn’t a perfect device, but it’s another big step in the right direction for the company. A great display, incredible performance, and some of the best battery life I've ever seen on a phone helps make this one of the best OnePlus devices in recent years."

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.
About OnePlus
OnePlus, established in 2013, is a smartphone brand that first became known for providing flagship-like devices, at a fraction of the cost compared to more expensive Android competitors. OnePlus focuses on creating smartphones with powerful hardware at reasonable prices. They also bring hardware features normally not seen in other Android phones sold in the US, such as their ultra-fast “Warp Charge” and the beloved “Alert Slider”.
