Since the arrival of both the Google Pixel 6 and Apple iPhone 13, there have been controversies on which phone to pick, and which is the best choice. The face-off between the two flagship devices has always remained a strong one. The iPhone 13 continues to set the standard for smartphones, with a powerful processor, noteworthy camera improvements and a bigger battery that addresses one of the iPhone 12’s few flaws.
The Pixel 6, on the other hand, looks quite different from any Google phone that has come before it, but it still offers the outstanding photo experience and even much more than you would have ever expected. So which phone stands out better? Here are 10 reasons why the Google Pixel 6 may just be the better pick between the two icons.
Screen
The Google Pixel 6 has more screen space, compared to that of the iPhone 13. It measures at 6.4 inches, while the iPhone 13 measures at 6.1 inches. Although the iPhone still has sharper resolution, the Google Pixel 6 beats it when it comes to refresh rate. The Pixel 6 offers a 90Hz refresh rate.
While that is not as fast as other flagship phones, including the Pixel 6 Pro and its 120Hz adaptive refresh rate, it certainly tops the iPhone 13, which remains stuck at 60Hz. Apple only added adaptive refresh rates to the iPhone 13 Pro models, which means that the Pixel 6 offers a more immersive experience with smoother scrolling.
Brightness
Apart from its refresh rate, the Google Pixel 6 also holds another advantage over the iPhone 13, which is that it is a little bit brighter. The iPhone 13 is measured at 795 nits of brightness with a light meter, which comes up just a bit fairly compared to the Pixel 6’s 843 nit rating.
Performance
Google made a great achievement by dropping Qualcomm’s Snapdragon system-on-chip in favor of its own Tensor chip for the Pixel 6. Google wanted a greater emphasis on machine learning for the silicon powering its phone, which is why the Tensor chip has its own Tensor Processing Unit that handles a lot of the tasks that might normally go through the CPU. As a result, there’s a lot of on-board smarts with the Pixel 6, compared to the iPhone 13.
Special Features
The Google Pixel 6 introduces two complementary features called Wait Times and Direct My Call, both of which combine to alleviate the stress of calling toll-free numbers, providing indications of how long you will likely have to wait to speak to an actual human being and also telling you which numbers to press to get to the right person or department.
Its camera features are also worth highlighting again. There is the Magic Eraser tool that lets you erase unwanted objects in shots, while the Long Exposure shots enable you to create moving photos, among other new additions.
As for the iPhone 13, it does not deliver much in terms of special features. There is MagSafe compatibility, allowing you to use a variety of magnetic accessories (e.g. chargers, as pictured above). You’ll also get Face ID as usual, as well as Memoji and Animoji, which let you add playful AR avatars to your messages and chats. Apart from these, that is about it for the special features of the iPhone 13.

Design
If you are looking for an overall sleek and unique design, then the Google Pixel 6 is the one for you. The Google Pixel 6 has a horizontal camera bar that spans the length of the phone, which one could deem unique, for the fact that the design was unexpected. Compared to the iPhone 13, the Google Pixel 6 has a way more creative outlook in terms of design.

Unique Colours
When it comes to colours, the Google Pixel 6 seems to drive it home with its new range of unique colourways, which are far more appealing than that of the iPhone 13.
Android
For this feature, the choice is up to you. Some smartphone enthusiasts generally prefer iOS products compared to Android, while for some, it is the other way around. If you are the type that would rather go for an Android system, then Google Pixel 6 is definitely the right choice. It is not just an Android device, but it runs on the latest Android system.

Battery
As for battery capacity, the Google Pixel 6 may just be the right way to go. It has a larger battery capacity, and this is good news for those who need longer-lasting battery life.
Cameras
Sometimes, it is hard to tell which camera quality is better between the two, as they both look pretty much the same. The Google Pixel 6 also promises you great camera quality, which means you are barely missing out on anything if you get the Google Pixel 6 instead.
Overall, the Pixel 6 is the best Android phone for the money and perhaps the best flagship phone in terms of sheer value. Additionally, the Google Pixel 6 seems to have transcended the train of Pixel series, having been designed in a particularly unique way. Whichever phone you pick, this list will still serve as a guide on how much value Pixel 6 has succeeded in holding.
