I’m looking to buy an iPhone 15 when it comes out. For those that also have a Pixel, what are some things that each phone does completely better than the other?

I was thinking of using the iPhone as a phone first, and having the Pixel as just a Personal Smart Device that I can use to do sideloading, emulation, file organizing, and other productivity and entertainment stuff, maybe even social media like having Mastadon and Lemmy there, maybe Signal too.

Whereas I’ll have the iPhone for calling, texting, streaming, CarPlay, News, and Apple Watch stuff.

What are some other things I can segment?

(There’s a lot of content and apps available on both, but I’m wanting to know if there’s anything that’s visibly or marginally better on either device that you’ve noticed)

    iPhone 14 Pro Max (work), Pixel 6 Pro (personal), literally zero reason to have both, my work phone is company owned, otherwise I’d never run both. The iPhone does nothing the Pixel doesnt, can’t be customized or actually tweaked in any way. People can argue the cameras, but the Pixel takes great pics too.

    Can’t see a rationale for using a totally locked down phone vs one that will literally do anything you want.
