OnePlus 11 vs Pixel 7 Pro: Tough call, but there's a CLEAR winner!

Right now there's not much separating Google's top-tier Pixel 7 Pro from the flagship killer that is the OnePlus 11. So let's see how they stack up against each other, and as always we'll see that there's a clear winner -- at least for me.

What US reviewers don't understand while talking about the wireless charging not being there on the OP 11 is that the US isn't even a primary market to OnePlus or Oppo. Their major userbase is in India, China & South-east Asia....and based on feedback received from those users, warp charging is more a priority than slow wireless charging...I think this a good move from OnePlus to save on cost and give the end user a more affordable smartphone

I'd take 80W wired over 5-15W wireless 100/100 times.

People who think wireless charging is really important have nothing else to do on life beside sit on same couch

This time OnePlus did their thing with the 11, kinda reminds me of the 7 pro.. Battery life is GREAT, beautiful screen, super fast charging, I could care less about wireless charging if I'm able to charge to 100% in less than 30 mins...

Clear win for Oneplus 11 for me. The generational gap in performance and fast charging is enough. And the selfie camera at the left side. That's the place the selfie camera should be. I don't care about wireless charging which is barely used in our country. 80w charger is included and it's also cheaper.

Please stop with this mistake!
The Pixel 7 pro can only charge up to 23w! Not 30w.
The charger (that you don't get in the box) is 30w

Short summary: OnePlus 11 wins in every category... but he is a pixel fanboy so he is spinning everything so the pixel is the "winner". This is the prime example why people tend to not believe most of the "reviews" from phones on youtube. GG

Funny how nearly every reviewer makes such a big stink about the lack of wireless charging on the OnePlus 11. When Apple took years to finally add wireless charging to their products, they would always say it was just gimmicky and slow. Hmmmm

[rohHitnaik]

When you can charge your phone from 0-100 in less than 30mins you don't really need wireless charging

WIRELESS CHARGING IS WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY WHEN U HAVE SUCH A POWERFUL CHARGER

[sharatmarar]

A pixel 7 pro user here. I have never found a phone with as many bugs as this pixel! I wonder why nobody talks about it.

[UdayGuleria]

For office work, wireless charging is ok, but for running ones... fast charging is perfect and makes sense in this today world.

6:11 I'm a bit confused as to how the Pixel's telephoto camera gets an "easy win" here?
The OnePlus looks brighter and a lot sharper and clearer in that clock photo..

[bbnsol]

Love your work Alex but the title says there is a clear winner and then you state a narrow win for Pixel? I was waiting for one of them to get hammered. 😆

[braxton]

Great comparo. Thanks for pointing out the middling radio performance with the Exynos modem. This is the sole reason I haven't gone pixel. I wish more reviewers would point out this core functionality that's impacted by modem choice.

[AgentGreyFox]

I still don't understand how slow wireless charging is such a big or wanted feature... You still need a cable, a plug and a device to put your phone on... When with wired you can get 80 watts plus with one less item. Makes no sense. Plus the charger is IN THE BOX for less money.

[sixtonvitzon]

Why did pixel win? after seeing this video I realized one plus won in many areas so I wonder how pixel won. It's strange 🤔

[nashrocks]

So close ... But I would call the versatile OP11 a clear winner here given the price and overall performance!

[JQ_Unity]

xda dev shouldn't be worried too much about software lol. CLEAR winner is OP11 with the stability of cell service, battery life and efficiency alone. Both phones are BL unlockable and software dumps available so development isn't an issue. IMO, I have always seen Oneplus phones get great Custom rom and software bug support. Google's Processor is just garbage because of Samsung making the SOC

[bsviky]

I donno why these reviewers make a big deal about wireless charging. If you can get a full day of charge in 15 mins then why would you even need wireless charging?
