And though it&#039;s pricey at $720-to-$800 (prices vary by carrier), \u00a3739 and AU$1,199, the S9 sits at the top of its class.  <\/p>\n<p>                                                                  Now Playing:                         Watch this:                                          The Galaxy S9 put up a good fight in our drop test                 <\/p>\n<p>                                              3:44                  <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/google\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Google<\/a>&#039;s marquee phone is also a champ in itself. The Pixel 2 has a best-in-show camera and a lower price tag that starts at $649, \u00a3629 and AU$1,079. It has such a wide appeal that we think even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/why-to-buy-a-pixel-2-instead-of-an-iphone-x\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">die-hard Apple iPhone users should give the Pixel 2 a shot<\/a>. (Now we know the rumored <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/google-pixel-3-xl-rumor-roundup-specs-release-date\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Pixel 3<\/a> is expected to come in October, but if you need a phone now, both are available now.)<\/p>\n<p>So which one should you buy? That would depend on what you want from a phone and how much you&#039;re willing to spend to get it. We&#039;ve stacked these two powerhouses against each other to see which one has the best design, camera, software features and performance. <\/p>\n<h3> \tDesign: Galaxy S9 flaunts a luxurious look <\/h3>\n<p>I was never a huge fan of the Pixel 2&#039;s design. Though I love its pocketable 5-inch size (there seriously needs to be a resurgence of smaller, high-powered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/topics\/phones\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">phones<\/a>), its attractive pale blue variant and its sturdiness, the Pixel 2 doesn&#039;t look sleek.  <\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnet2.cbsistatic.com\/img\/noppP202i_F6ztt0sN-GdJLqjwM=\/570x0\/2018\/06\/22\/3a48e955-4e70-4f26-8cfb-5bd71cd1ab66\/samsung-galaxy-s9-gold-3423.jpg\" alt=\"samsung-galaxy-s9-gold-3423\"\/><figcaption>\n<p>The Galaxy S9 also comes in new colors like purple and gold.<\/p>\n<p>                                                     James Martin\/CNET                                                 <\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Its thick bezels and the matte finish on the (aluminum) back feel dated and cheap, especially in contrast to the Galaxy S9&#039;s edge-to-edge curved screen and glossy (albeit fingerprint-collecting) glass casing. The Pixel 2 also doesn&#039;t have a headphone jack, whereas the Galaxy S9 does, which is a deal-breaker for many. That means you&#039;ll need to connect either a Bluetooth headphone or carry around a dongle to listen to your music and calls.  <\/p>\n<p>On top of that, the Galaxy S9&#039;s bigger screen is sharper, with more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/products\/google-pixel\/review\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">pixels<\/a> per inch, and it&#039;s slightly more water resistant. It can be dunked for 30 minutes in 1.5 meters of water compared to the Pixel 2&#039;s one meter limitation (that&#039;s about 3.3 feet). Though, I wouldn&#039;t bother with that distinction too much \u2014 I&#039;m just glad both phones are waterproof and you can just scoop them up quickly the moment they accidentally fall into the water. Of course, all these design goodies come at a higher cost, which puts a bigger dent in your wallet. <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>Winner<\/strong>: The Galaxy S9 is more expensive, and the way it attracts fingerprints and smudges is annoying. But I still prefer its sleeker design over the Pixel 2. \t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Camera: Pixel 2 packs a powerhouse camera<br \/><\/h3>\n<p>If you really want to know which of the two has a better camera, read our super in-depth camera comparison here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/galaxy-s9-vs-pixel-2-best-camera-comparison\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Galaxy S9 vs. Pixel 2: Which camera is best?<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>But here&#039;s the TL;DR: The Galaxy S9 has a fantastic camera, and excels at taking noise-free photos (like when you&#039;re capturing the sky or a low-light night shot) and pictures at medium low-light. <\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnet2.cbsistatic.com\/img\/ezFnZdtLKiS18ka4rEt-6MZQVeg=\/170x96\/2018\/05\/21\/92ffac24-4ce9-48e2-8f1e-112d205cef1e\/s9vspixel2.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>                                                                  Now Playing:                         Watch this:                                          Galaxy S9 vs. Pixel 2 camera showdown                 <\/p>\n<p>                                              4:33                  <\/p>\n<p>However, the Pixel 2&#039;s camera is superior. It&#039;s HDR+ enhanced feature allows you to just click the shutter and effortlessly take a great shot. Photos taken in portrait mode (on both the rear and front-facing cameras) are smoother and look better, and it does a better job understanding that your hair shouldn&#039;t be blurred into the background, for example. Lastly, we think its video-stabilization capabilities are the best on any phone available.<\/p>\n<p>(Seriously though, it&#039;s best you read our thorough <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/galaxy-s9-vs-pixel-2-best-camera-comparison\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Galaxy S9 vs. Pixel 2 shoot-out<\/a> for all the photos and info.) <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>Winner<\/strong>: The Pixel 2&#039;s camera is exceptional. \t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Software features: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tags\/google-assistant\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Google Assistant<\/a> vs. Samsung Bixby<br \/><\/h3>\n<p>Both phones run <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/products\/android-oreo\/preview\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Android Oreo<\/a>, though when it comes to updates, the Pixel 2 has an advantage. As a Google phone, it&#039;ll receive prompt updates from the company as soon as they are available for rollout (meaning it&#039;ll be one of the first phones to get the final version of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/how-to\/reasons-why-youll-want-android-p\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Android P<\/a>). The Galaxy S9&#039;s OS updates typically come a few months later.  <\/p>\n<p>The Pixel 2 and the Galaxy S9 also have their own unique digital voice assistants: Google Assistant and Bixby Voice, respectively. However, the Galaxy S9 also has Assistant, too.  <\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnet4.cbsistatic.com\/img\/2seTGS_FnmxipeWYiRYFHobpgTs=\/170x96\/2017\/07\/25\/d746f751-f978-46ad-ba76-e8a69dadbfdf\/voiceassistants2.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>                                                                  Now Playing:                         Watch this:                                          Siri vs. Google Assistant vs. Bixby                 <\/p>\n<p>                                              4:46                  <\/p>\n<p>Both assistants can do the basics just fine (setting reminders and alarms, checking the weather, etc.), but Bixby can handle complex multi-step commands like posting your latest photo on Instagram with a dictated caption. Assistant, on the other hand, taps into Google&#039;s vast search database and can look up queries through continued conversation. It&#039;s also superfast when looking up answers, whereas Bixby takes a beat or two longer.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/galaxy-s9-pixel-2-comparison-better-phone\/\" alt=\"bixby-screens-0823-004\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnet1.cbsistatic.com\/img\/-JFGM-6GgM359YL6lJuEy7qz9cw=\/570x0\/2017\/06\/22\/5cf3fac0-d5c1-4b2c-96eb-bbb3b0540d7b\/bixby-screens-0810-002.jpg\" alt=\"bixby-screens-0823-004\"\/><figcaption>\n<p>Asking Bixby for the weather.<\/p>\n<p>                                                     Josh Miller\/CNET                                                 <\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>With Google Lens and Bixby Vision built-in respectively, both phones can also look up visual items like identify landmarks or scan barcodes. For a deeper look at these assistants, check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/siri-vs-google-assistant-vs-bixby\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Siri vs. Google Assistant vs. Bixby comparison<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Personally, I prefer using Assistant because of its speed. I also like the Pixel 2&#039;s simpler UI. Because it&#039;s so streamlined, the learning curve is lower, and more user-friendly. I&#039;m also not a fan of the Galaxy S9&#039;s dedicated Bixby button that sits on the left edge of the phone. It can&#039;t be reprogrammed to do anything else, and you end up hitting it all the time.  <\/p>\n<p>However, with the Galaxy S9, you don&#039;t have to choose between assistants because you have both. The phone also has iris scanning for extra user privacy.  <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>Winner<\/strong>: Toss up \u2014 I much prefer the Pixel 2&#039;s simple and refined user experience, but when it comes to &quot;doing&quot; more, the Galaxy S9 definitely has more options. \t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3> \tPerformance and battery: Galaxy S9 reigns over all<\/h3>\n<p>Equipped with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/tags\/qualcomm\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Qualcomm<\/a>&#039;s latest Snapdragon 845 chipset, the Galaxy S9 is smooth and  lightning quick. As our benchmark results show, it comfortably beat the Pixel 2 \u2014 which has a Snapdragon 835 processor \u2014 on our benchmark tests. <\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that just because the Pixel 2 has last year&#039;s processor, it doesn&#039;t mean it&#039;s not zippy itself. When it comes to day-to-day usage like firing up the camera, quitting apps and scrolling through web pages, I didn&#039;t discern any difference in speed between the two, and the Pixel 2 is as responsive today as it was on day 1. <\/p>\n<figure>\n<h2>Geekbench v.4.0 single-core<\/h2><figcaption>\n<h3>Note:<\/h3>\n<p>                     Longer bars indicate better performance                  <\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure>\n<h2>Geekbench v.4.0 multi-core<\/h2><figcaption>\n<h3>Note:<\/h3>\n<p>                     Longer bars indicate better performance                  <\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure>\n<h2>3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited<\/h2><figcaption>\n<h3>Note:<\/h3>\n<p>                     Longer bars indicate better performance                  <\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Galaxy S9&#039;s battery (3,000mAh) is only a little bigger than the Pixel 2 (2,700mAh), yet its battery life is impressive. In our battery lab tests for continuous video playback on Airplane mode, the Galaxy S9 ran a lengthy 15 hours and 30 minutes. The Pixel 2 lasted 13 hours and 28 minutes as well, but that was nowhere near the Galaxy S9.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the Galaxy S9 has wireless charging, similar to previous Galaxy phones, the 2017 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/products\/apple-iphone-x\/review\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">iPhones<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/reviews\/lg-g7-thinq\/review\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">LG G7 ThinQ<\/a> and others. With this feature, you can place the S9 on a charging pad, and it&#039;ll juice up without the need of a cable. While this isn&#039;t exactly a make-or-break feature for me, it&#039;s one more convenience that the S9 has that the Pixel 2 doesn&#039;t. <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>Winner<\/strong>: Though the Pixel 2 is still a reliable and fast phone, the Galaxy S9 is faster and has a longer-lasting battery to boot. \t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/galaxy-s9-pixel-2-comparison-better-phone\/\" alt=\"samsung-galaxy-s9-pixel-2-3337\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnet1.cbsistatic.com\/img\/MNOKR1lYEJMT3oXwRdYCVDdkqQ4=\/970x0\/2018\/06\/23\/ea8c2771-014a-438e-8dba-1e2c797b6678\/samsung-galaxy-s9-pixel-2-3337.jpg\" alt=\"samsung-galaxy-s9-pixel-2-3337\"\/><figcaption>\n<p>The Pixel 2 (top) and the Galaxy S9 (bottom).<\/p>\n<p>                                                     James Martin\/CNET                                                 <\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>And the winner is\u2026<br \/><\/h3>\n<p>Because I love the ease of which I can take a great photo with little effort, I personally lean toward the Pixel 2. I also its minimalistic interface, pocketable size and slightly lower price tag. <\/p>\n<p>But which is objectively the better phone? I have to say, it&#039;s the Galaxy S9. With its smooth looks, fast processor and long-lasting battery, it edged out the Pixel 2 in more categories. This all makes sense, since it&#039;s the newer and more expensive model. <\/p>\n<p>Whatever phone you choose, you&#039;ll surely be satisfied by both. However, it&#039;s important to note that these two aren&#039;t even your only options. If you want a bigger phone, there&#039;s the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/products\/samsung-galaxy-s9-plus\/review\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Galaxy S9 Plus<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/products\/google-pixel-2-xl\/review\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Pixel 2 XL<\/a> to consider. And  if you don&#039;t need a new phone immediately, the Pixel 3 is expected to launch in four months, while the next Samsung phone will be the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/galaxy-note-9-launch-date-price-specs-features-samsung-rumors\/\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Galaxy Note 9<\/a>, which is due for release around August.
