Apple iPhone 14 Plus vs Google Pixel 10 Pro XL
Our Verdict: The Google Pixel 10 Pro XL has a dramatically higher-resolution main camera, 50MP against the Apple iPhone 14 Plus's 12MP, plus a 42MP selfie camera against 12MP, and the Pixel 10 Pro XL packs the bigger battery, 5200mAh against 4325mAh, though iOS and Android manage power differently, so more mAh doesn't always mean longer battery life. The Pixel 10 Pro XL offers up to 1TB of storage versus 512GB on the iPhone 14 Plus 5G, and the Pixel 10 Pro XL has the sharper display at 482 PPI to 457. Get the Pixel 10 Pro XL if those extras are worth it to you; otherwise the iPhone 14 Plus 5G covers the basics for less.
Buying outright, the iPhone 14 Plus 5G starts at £240 SIM-free.
