iPhone 7 Plus or a Google Pixel / Pixel XL?

As always the dilemma between choosing between an android phone or an iPhone is ever present for many smartphone buyers. There is no denying that an ios system has its pros, but the choice among Android devices is much more varied too in contrast. With Google’s latest introduction of the Google Pixel and the Pixel XL, there are many buyers who are considering opting for one of them rather than the much higher priced iPhone 7 Plus. What are your views with regard to these smartphones? Which would you choose? I think the Pixel phones are too highly priced considering that they are trying to beat iPhone 7.

Well initially I automatically thought of course go with the iPhone 7. However, it doesn't have one of my favorite features anymore, the headphone jack, and I believe you're required to use wireless headphones via the bluetooth feature on the phone and I'm not too entirely sure if apple provides those or if you have to purchase from elsewhere.

The cost between the two smart phones, apple, and google seem to be quite competitive. I believe they both are selling for around $700. I think at one time both were $649 if I remember correctly. I may go with Apple phone over any other solely because I like how the UI is set up, and I'm more use to apple mobile products.

Yes the price is something like that, and I cannot understand how Google decided to set such a high price, considering that this is their main serious attempt in the smartphone market. I would have thought they would have gone a bit cheaper, so as to entice those potential buyers who are seeing the iPhone 7 as being too expensive. I have used both iPhone and Android and I think that I would stick with Android because iPhone, despite the high quality, is just too restricted in various areas in my opinion.

Well, are you talking about buying outright or getting it on contract? I haven't checked the prices of the Google Pixel / Pixel XL Vs iPhone 7 price but I did do some comparisons on them the other day and basically the take away is that if you're going to spend $600 on an Android then you might just be better off getting a Samsung Galaxy S7 or HTC 10 or even the OnePlus 3 for half the price. That said, there are some good contract deals around for the Pixel phone by Google. I was looking at the one on EE as my contract runs out soon (48 month Apple iPhone 6 contract) and I'm definitely not using another iPhone again. It's a good OS and secure and that and iPhone 7 is a good phone. But the Google Pixel phone has some better specs than it in some areas and you're much less restricted when using it (in terms of what you can actually do on the phone). Unlike Apple iOS who lock everything down and you have to do things their way or it's the high way! lol

But even the basic plan for the Google Pixel phone right now starts at £45 with u/l mins/texts but only 500mb data which is rubbish in today's world! Especially when watching and streaming 4K YouTube videos. Watch a few of them and half your data is gone already!

I'm definitely going to get an Android phone next. Just probably not the Google Pixel. Probably a Samsung Galaxy S7 or the HTC 10.

Still got a few months left yet so will see what's on offer nearer come that time. iPhone 7 Plus or a Google Pixel / Pixel XL?

I have checked out the One Plus 3 because a friend of mine recommended it in fact. It seems just great. In fact I am strongly considering trying it out. My friend has the One Plus 2 and he is very pleased with it. I checked it out and it had lots of things that I liked.

Like you I prefer Android to iphones. However definitely not Samsung considering my latest Samsung freaked out, and there have been all those reports about going on fire or exploding or whatever happened with them!

I personally would wait this one out. Google Pixel is brand new, I'm not going to jump buying one until I'll see some serious reviews from people that had it for more than 6 months.

So on that note, I definitely will not switch to iPhone anytime soon since I'm such a big Google fan, I will probably go for the second generation of Pixel, bet they'll fix a lot of current bugs and annoying features Pixel has at the moment (if it has any at all).

What I could find from most reviews till now is quite good actually, however I would not be willing to spend that high price for sure. I agree with you on that. Moreover, I hate to spend really high prices on smartphones. I also worry about damaging them because I am not that cautious. I have had several accidents with my previous phones, you know, bumping, and falling, and then I always regret having spent a lot of money on them! So it is better to go for something cheaper. I think the One Plus 3 is actually a great alternative.

Personally I'm not fan of Apple products, so definitely I would choose Google Pixel, even though they offer almost the same thing when it comes to features and price. Comparing Google Pixel with Iphone7 it's not that they've too much difference between them, but I would never use a phone without headphone jack as Iphone7 is, simply I don't understand what's the point to remove the headphone jack, if I would want to use bluetooth headphones I would do it with or without headphone jack. However, both Apple and Google are giant companies, so it will be interesting to see them competing...

I also prefer not sticking with Apple. The fact that you are bound to that OS and there are certain apps that you cannot use irritates me. I prefer the broader Android possibilities. It would be interesting indeed to see how Pixel will be doing in comparison. I think the Pixel XL should have been launched at a lower price.

it really depends on what you want to use it for. You must take note that a Google Pixel is quite a bit more expensive than most flagship phones. iPhone 7 Plus performs really well overall and would make a better phone if performance is what you're looking for. Google Pixel XL on the other hand, has an unrivaled camera by any phone and still offers the best camera quality in a smartphone until now.
