Agreed. But I much prefer the hardware of the garden walled company. It’s a shame.

Apple hardware is great, but if you want a superior camera you'll need to use a Google Pixel ;) No one can match Google's computational photography. Pixel hardware is great too, though battery life honestly sucks. I am not your average user though. Maybe regular people have better battery life.
I have both and really want to use my pixel as my main phone…. But i just got the Apple Watch ultra and i don’t want to stop using it. 😂
I will respectfully disagree. Perhaps because I’m Canadian and I could easily get a Huawei p30 pro phone. the Huawei was the best damn camera I’ve ever had on a phone. But sold and went for IPhone 12 Pro Max and the camera is so disappointing compared.
Agreed.
Pixel battery life seems much better when you load an alternate OS like Graphene, in my opinion.
Graphene uses a lot less power than the Google OS because it isn’t doing much “background work” like tracking and locating.
This.
You all recommend this graphene thing on pixel? I, super unfamiliar but need a new phone soon. I wfh so honestly would be down to try something totally new ie pixel.
GrapheneOS is what we call a custom ROM. It allows you to de-Google your phone. It's custom firmware for your phone. You need to unlock the bootloader and flash the new firmware. It's not hard to do on a Pixel, especially now a days. It's all point and click. Super easy.
Pixel is the best phone to use with graphene. Mine is a Pixel 4 (not the phone I’m currently using)
I ran GrapheneOS before. It's nice. I used to run custom ROMs for the better part of a decade. I just don't have time for that any longer.
