A lot has happened this fall. Basically, every major player in the mobile phone market has introduced their flagship. It all started with Samsung, followed by Apple with the iPhone 8. A month later, Google came out with the new Pixel, and everything was rounded off again by Apple, which released the iPhone X the week before last. a hilarious video that you can watch below.

The authors' review is structured into several categories, such as design, hardware, camera, display, unique features (Face ID, Active Edge), etc. In addition, the authors compare how both phones perform in everyday use and how they hold up against reality weekday.

Google Pixel 2 (XL):

The price tag of both phones is similar, the iPhone X costs $999, the Pixel 2 XL costs $850 (however, it is not officially sold in the Czech Republic). The displays are also similar in size, although the overall size is significantly different, to the disadvantage of Google's flagship. In terms of performance, the iPhone X reigns supreme with its A11 Bionic processor. In the benchmarks, there is no one who can match its performance. However, in normal day-to-day use, both phones are powerful enough that you won't be able to tell the difference between them.

Both models have an OLED panel. The one in the Pixel is from LG, while Apple uses Samsung services. Right from its release, the new Pixel has been plagued with burn-in issues that have yet to appear on the iPhone. This is most likely due to the inferior manufacturing process that LG has compared to Samsung. Color rendering is also slightly better on the iPhone.

In the case of cameras, the fight is even. The iPhone X has a dual camera, while the Pixel 2 will offer only one lens in the main camera. However, the results of both are very similar and in both cases they are great photomobiles. The front camera is also similar for both models, although the Pixel 2 offers slightly better processing of portrait images.

Official iPhone X Gallery:

The iPhone X offers Face ID, while the Pixel 2 has a classic fingerprint reader. In this case, it will be a matter of personal preference, but Apple's new authorization system is praised basically everywhere. The Pixel 2 XL includes the Active Edge function, which recognizes a stronger press on the phone and executes a preset command (Google Assistant by default) based on this. As for the battery, the one in the Pixel 2 XL is larger, but the iPhone X has better endurance in practice. It also has compatibility with wireless charging, which is not possible with the Google flagship, due to the design. Both phones don't have a 3,5mm connector and it doesn't make much sense to evaluate the design, given its subjective perception. However, the iPhone X looks significantly more modern than the competitor from Google.
