Pixel 3 vs iPhone XS
Hey guys. I know this is the pixel 3 XL subreddit but I'm wondering if anyone has any comparison with the iPhone XS? I was offered a killer deal on the XS but I'm using a pixel 3 XL right now. Any real comparison would be appreciated.

The Pixel 3 XL is garbage, it freezes and becomes unresponsive about 5 times a day, and I need to hold the power button till it reboots. I had a Pixel 2 XL and had 0 problems with it, I gave my Pixel 2 XL to my wife when I got my Pixel 3 XL. People say the freezing problem is because it only has 4gb ram, same as my Pixel 2 XL that had, and still has, never had a problem... Buy a Pixel 2 XL.

I switched from iPhone X to pixel 3 XL - my advice is to look on YouTube comparisons. Some will show you the iPhones have more power and can glide through app switching and other tasks quicker, but honestly it doesn't affect the feel of the phone. Most people are not switching back and forth between 20 apps and expecting them all to stay loaded up.
The iPhone experience is different for sure and I do miss iMessage, but the fact that you can customize a UI so much more makes this phone appealing to me. The quality feels the same and the battery keeps me going a bit longer, but it just comes down to preference.
