Google’s Pixel 5 comes with a lot of features that the company has never used before. These features also include 5G connectivity, an ultra-wide camera, and a long-lasting battery. You can buy this phone for $649. The other phone launched with the Pixel 5 is the Pixel 4A 5G, which is available for $499.
While the Pixel 5 comes with some notable upgrades over its predecessor, the company anticipates lower sales due to the global pandemic this year. That is why Google plans to produce only 800,000 phones this year. This phone also faces tough competition with other flagship phones in the market, such as Apple’s iPhone 11. With the launch of the iPhone 12, Apple has reduced the price of the iPhone 11 to $599. This phone has a fast processor and an excellent camera pack. It doesn’t, however, offer 5G connectivity.
In this article, we are going to compare Google’s Pixel 5 and Apple’s iPhone 11 briefly.

With the color of a pebble, matte texture, aluminum and glass finish, and rounded corners, the Pixel 5 looks more minimalistic and earthy in terms of design. It may be in direct contrast with the iPhone 11, which comes with a glossy and popped-up-colored design.
On the back of the Pixel 5, there is a fingerprint scanner that helps you perform different operations, including unlocking the phone and making digital payments. The facial recognition camera on the front allows for user authorization.
Both phones come with a 6-inch screen, and both do not have any headphone jacks. Both handsets come with an IP68 rating, which means that both are equally water-resistant.
A notable advantage that the Pixel 5 has over the iPhone 11 is its OLED screen. The iPhone 11, on the other hand, has an LCD. On paper, the Pixel 5 may look superior in this regard, but both phones do extremely well. Placing both handsets side-by-side will help you notice the difference, nevertheless.

Both the Pixel 5 and iPhone 11 come with two rear cameras each. Both handsets offer optical image stabilization and improvements in low-light modes. The Pixel 5 has a standard camera and a wide-angle lens, while the iPhone 11 has a wide-angle lens and an ultra-wide camera. The ultra-wide option in the iPhone 11 offers a wider field of view compared to the Pixel 5.
Both phones can record 4K videos and 1080p videos at 240 fps. The front-facing cam of the iPhone 11 can also capture 4K video and slow-motion videos at 120fps. The front-facing camera on the Pixel 5 offers 1080p resolution. There is no option for slow-motion videos with this cam.
Performance comparison
Performance comparison
The Pixel 5 and 4A 5G offer 5G-compatibility. 5G promises many times faster speed compared to the 4G. The iPhone 11 doesn’t have 5G-compatibility, but the iPhone 12 comes with this feature.
Interestingly, Google has equipped its Pixel 5 with Snapdragon 765G chipset, making it a low-performing handset compared to the Pixel 4, which came with Snapdragon 855. But the fact of the matter is that there have been no performance issues with this phone.
The iPhone 11, on the other hand, has been a proven performance beast, thanks to its A13 Bionic chipset, which outperforms Snapdragon 855 in benchmark tests.
The Pixel 5 comes with a 4000mAh battery, which has the highest capacity among all Pixel phones to date. The iPhone 11 comes with a 3110mAh battery, which may look inferior to that of the Pixel 5, but given that Apple uses highly optimized hardware for its handsets, this phone should remain on for a considerable amount of time over a single charge.
