There are 6 key reasons you should buy Google's new Pixel 4 over the Samsung Galaxy S10
The Pixel 4 isn't as pretty, but its flat screen is more functional than the Galaxy S10's curved screen edges, which make the screen feel narrower than it really is.
The Pixel 4 is less frustrating to unlock because Google's radar-based facial recognition is faster and more accurate than Samsung's ultra-sonic in-display fingerprint sensor.
The Pixel 4 gets Android updates the moment Google rolls them out, while Samsung Galaxy owners are usually left behind for months.
The Pixel 4's camera takes better photos than the Galaxy S10's, which can look overly processed at times.
You can get an idea of Samsung's and Google's overall approach towards smartphone cameras and how their photos look in this comparison between the Google Pixel 3 and the Galaxy S10.
The Galaxy S10 is already a little old: It was released eight months ago, and a new Galaxy "S" phone from Samsung is expected in February, just four months from now.
The Pixel 4's 90Hz screen makes the phone feel faster than the Galaxy S10's 60Hz screen.
So the PIxel 4 trumps the Galaxy S10 in a few ways, but there is a flipside.
There are a few downsides to the Pixel 4 that could make the Galaxy S10 a better choice:
- The Pixel 4's battery life isn't great.
- The Galaxy S10 comes with a 25W charger that charges the S10 significantly faster than the 18W charger included with the Pixel 4.
- The Galaxy S10's camera might not be as good, but it's still fine, and it offers an ultra-wide camera lens. The missing ultra-wide camera on the Pixel 4 has been a disappointment.
- The Pixel 4 might be cheaper, but it doesn't offer the best value for its price tag.
