    Design

    The design of the Google Pixel 7 is definitely more interesting than the design of the OnePlus 11. This phone is very original with its horizontal camera module and suggestive color options. Further, it is one of the most compact flagships. It is built with premium materials, including glass for the back (protected by Gorilla Glass Victus, just like the front glass) and aluminum for the frame. It is even waterproof thanks to the IP68 certification confirming that it is waterproof and dustproof as well. The OnePlus 11 has an original design too, but it is bigger and chunkier. Further, it has a glass back, but its build quality is inferior, and it does not offer protection against water and dust.

    Display

    The best display belongs to the OnePlus 11, there is no doubt about it. First of all, it is a lot wider than the Google Pixel 7, with a diagonal of 6.7 inches. Further, it has better specifications. It is an AMOLED display showing images with a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels, a 120 Hz refresh rate (adaptive refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz thanks to the LTPO technology), Dolby Vision support, HDR10+ certification, and an in-display fingerprint scanner. With the Google Pixel 7, you can get an AMOLED display with a diagonal of 6.3 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels, a 90 Hz refresh rate, and HDR10+ certification, as well as an in-display fingerprint reader. Both phones feature stereo speakers for an improved audio experience, but they have no audio jack.

    Specs & Software

    The most impressive hardware setup belongs to the OnePlus 11. It is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 mobile platform, currently the best chipset by Qualcomm. It is a processor built with a 4 nm production process and sporting an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex X3 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.2 GHz, two Cortex A715 CPUs, two Cortex A710 CPUs, three Cortex A510 CPUs, and an Adreno 740 GPU. It is paired with up to 16 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of UFS 4.0 native storage. The Google Pixel 7 is fueled by the Google Tensor G2 chipset: an SoC built with a 5 nm production process and sporting an octa-core architecture composed of two Cortex X1 CPUs running at 2.85 GHz, two Cortex A78 CPUs, four Cortex A55 CPUs, and a Mali G710 MP7 GPU. Alongside the Tensor G2, there are 8 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage.

    Camera

    If you are looking for the best rear cameras, then you should opt for the OnePlus 11. On the rear side, it sports a Hasselblad triple camera setup including a 50 MP main camera with OIS (the Sony IMX890 sensor), a 32 MP telephoto shooter with 2x optical zoom for portrait, and a 48 MP ultrawide lens. The Google Pixel 7 lacks optical zoom and it only offers a 50 MP main camera with OIS and a 12 MP ultrawide shooter, but it has a better front camera with a 10.8 MP resolution and 4K video recording at 60 fps.

    Battery

    The OnePlus 11 lasts longer on a single charge thanks to its bigger 5000 mAh, and it charges quicker thanks to 100W fast charging.

    Price

    The Google Pixel 7 costs $499 or €599 globally, while the global price of the OnePlus 11 is still unknown (but it will cost more). In China, it starts from $799. Which one would you pick?
