Apple iPhone 11 Pro vs Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold
Our Verdict: The Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold has the better camera on paper, 48MP versus 12MP, and only the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is a 5G phone; the Apple iPhone 11 Pro maxes out at 4G. There's more battery in the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, 4650mAh to 3046mAh, though iOS and Android manage power differently, so more mAh doesn't always mean longer battery life, and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold has the bigger screen at 8" against 5.8", while the iPhone 11 Pro has the sharper one at 463 PPI. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold is the one to have if you want what it adds, but the iPhone 11 Pro is the smarter buy if you'd rather keep the money.
If you'd rather pay up front, the iPhone 11 Pro is the cheaper buy at £130 SIM-free.
