EDITORIAL: In what is now Google tradition, new Pixel is a small improvment over the previous model: new processor, improved WiFi and faster (15W->25W) wireless charging is all that is really different this time.

PROs
flagship built, 30hr endurance from a 4900mAh old-tech lithium battery with 80min slow 30W (25W wireless) charging, very bright ~2100nits 420ppi 120Hz OLED screen with HDR10+, IP68 protection, good imaging from a 48MP 25mm OIS main + 10.8MP 112mm OIS tele + 13MP ultrawide (all 3 PDAF) setup, excellent 10.5MP 21mm PDAF selfie, decent video recording safe for ultrawide at night, 7 years of OS updates promise with AI and other features loaded Android version, basic desktop replacement functionality, fast USB-C 3.2 port
CONs

EDITORIAL: Featuring Xiaomi's own processor, the 15S Pro marks a beginning of a new era. Unlike Huawei's Kirin chips, the new XRing 01 is a proper 3nm top-of-the-line processor that should compete head on with SD 8 Elite and Mediatec's top Dimensity 9400. Xiaomi wants to impress: all-day battery, excellent screen, powerful cameras, even the Display Port is there.

PROs
expect fast performance with UFS 4.1 memory, >30hr endurance from a 6100mAh Si battery with sub-60min 90W (50W wireless) charging, >1300 >520ppi LTPO AMOLED with Dolby Vision screen, IP68 protection, reliable 50MP 23mm main + 50MP 120mm periscope telephoto (both OIS PDAF)+ 50MP 14mm AF ultrawide setup, average 32MP 22mm (non AF) selfie, okay video recording, 4 years of OS updates and fast USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port with DisplayPort and OTG
CONs
no AF on selfie, no expandable memory or desktop replacement functionality
