An LTPO panel can drop to 1 Hz, so static content and the always-on display use less power; it rises to 120 Hz when scrolling.

Rear cameras50 MP wide (ƒ/1.68, 1/1.3-inch, Octa PD); 48 MP ultrawide (ƒ/1.7, 123°, macro focus); 48 MP 5x telephoto (ƒ/2.8, OIS); Pro Zoom up to 100x

Optical quality is given at 0.5x, 1x, 2x, 5x and 10x; Pro Zoom up to 100x is AI-assisted digital zoom.

Google
12 MP Main (ƒ/1.6, sensor-shift optical stabilisation, 100% Focus Pixels) and 12 MP Ultra Wide (ƒ/2.4, 120°); 2x optical zoom out, digital zoom up to 5x

There is no telephoto camera: 2x refers to switching from the main to the ultra wide camera. Sensor-shift stabilisation compensates for hand shake by moving the sensor rather than the lens. Night mode, Deep Fusion, Smart HDR 4 and Photographic Styles are available.

Apple
Video8K 24/30 fps (with Video Boost, processed in the cloud); 4K 24/30/60 fps; 10-bit HDR video

Video Boost uploads the clip to Google Photos and processes it on servers, so it needs a connection and some waiting time.

Google
4K Dolby Vision HDR up to 24/25/30/60 fps; Cinematic mode 1080p at 30 fps; 1080p slo-mo at 120/240 fps

Cinematic mode blurs the background and can shift focus between people automatically; on this model it is limited to 1080p at 30 fps. Recording formats are HEVC and H.264; 8 MP stills can be taken while recording 4K.

No adapter is in the box. Pixelsnap means built-in magnets align the phone with Qi2 chargers and accessories; the smaller Pro is limited to 15 W wireless.

Google
Up to 19 hours of video (15 hours streamed), up to 75 hours of audio; built-in lithium-ion battery; 15 W wireless charging with MagSafe, 7.5 W with Qi; about 50% in 30 minutes with a 20 W or higher adapter

The fast-charge figure comes from Apple’s testing with a 20 W USB-C adapter, sold separately. MagSafe aligns chargers and accessories with a magnet array on the back.

Connectivity5G Sub-6; Wi-Fi 7 (2x2 MIMO); Bluetooth 6; NFC; UWB; dual-band GNSS; Thread; USB-C 3.2

The UWB chip finds the direction and distance of compatible tags and devices more precisely; Thread is a low-power mesh network for smart-home devices.
