Google Pixel 9 Pro XL vs. Samsung Galaxy S24 : Design
Clearly there’s a distinct design language that each phone goes after. While they both feature flat-edged screens and IP68 ratings for water resistance, those are the only similarities they share in terms of design.
I think the Pixel 9 Pro XL has the more charming loos to draw in more people. This is due to how the corners of the phone are rounded off, the flat edges all around the phone, and the new horizontal camera cutout on the back. And it also helps that the Pixel 9 Pro XL is lighter and as big as the Galaxy S24 Ultra — so it’s slightly better to hold and use comfortably.
Samsung technically uses a more durable titanium frame on the Galaxy S24 Ultra, which makes it better equipped for absorbing impacts. But beyond that, it’s almost a utilitarian design that doesn’t win points in the style department, especially with the arrangement of its quadruple cameras on the back of the phone.
