Keeping up with the comparison trend because, after all, we all want the “best bang for the buck”, we cannot forget about another great flagship that was released this year, the Galaxy S23 ultra. When compared to the recently announced top-of-the-line Google Pixel 8 Pro, how does the South Korean giant do? Well, let’s find out right now!
Both panels are very good for everyday use and offer sharp images with great colors, but those looking for more real-state for their displays will be happier with the Samsung device, which also has a screen a tidbit sharper.
Powering the Pixel 8 Pro is Google’s Tensor G3 chipset, while the S23 Ultra brings the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Both chipsets can handle high-performance tasks with ease, delivering a nice experience when multitasking or gaming.
In terms of storage, both devices offer almost the exact same options, with the exception of the Pixel 8 Pro which has a cheaper 128GB variant for those that do not need extra internal space.
In terms of battery, essentially we have here two modules with 5,000 mAh so we should expect very similar battery life, of course, with the possibility of being extended using the system features dedicated to preserving the charge for longer periods of time.
Despite both devices being able to deliver good hardware when it comes to the camera, the Galaxy phone may be more interesting for those looking to capture pictures from far away, especially because of its 100X Space Zoom capabilities.
Selfie lovers should be well served with both of these front-facing cameras, but the software features should come into play when it comes to improving image quality or maybe disguising skin imperfections so, you should take into consideration what each platform offers in this respect. It’s nice to remember that Google is promoting its new flagship AI skills for improving image capture.
Talking about the ports, both have virtually the same ports, with the same cable (USB 2.0) included. If users want to take advantage of higher transfer speeds, they will need to purchase a USB 3 cable separately.
When it comes to pricing, the Pixel device is cheaper, but keep in mind that it has half the storage (128GB vs. 256GB) of the cheapest S23 Ultra. For 256GB on the Pixel, you’ll need to shell out $1059 (which is still cheaper than Samsung’s price). So, if extra space is not that important for you, the Google device may be more interesting.
Another preference that plays a big part here in this comparison is the software part. While both devices run Android, Samsung has its own interface while Google rocks the stock Android so, if you’re a fan of Samsung’s services and apps, the South Korean flagship may be your best bet.
