The Full Story

LoveBar's deep-dive, written for humans 💕

When you are shopping for the biggest, baddest phone you can get, these two always end up in the final round. The Pixel 9 Pro XL and iPhone 16 Pro Max tie on cameras and displays, which makes the decision weirdly personal. It comes down to what bugs you more - running out of battery or running out of processing muscle. Google made a phone that lasts and costs less. Apple made one that handles anything you throw at it.
