IN PICS | iPhone 15, Google Pixel 8, More Challengers To Samsung Galaxy S24

iPhone 15 (Price: Rs 72,900 onwards) — The Galaxy S24 contends with the iPhone 15, featuring a 48-megapixel main sensor, USB Type-C charging, a unique frosted back finish, excellent stereo speakers, and the reliable A16 Bionic chip, making it a comprehensive premium smartphone.

Google Pixel 8 (Price: Rs 75,999) — Despite having only two cameras on the back, the Pixel 8's smart features, impressive cameras, Tensor G3 chip, distinct design, compact size, and durable build with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus and IP68 rating make it a formidable competitor against the Galaxy S24, while its 6.2-inch full HD+ OLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate, though not as bright as the S24, is compensated by a larger 4,575mAh battery, wireless charging support, and a guarantee of seven years of Android updates.

iQoo 12 5G (Price: Rs 52,999 onwards) — The iQoo 12 5G, equipped with the powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon Gen 3, a high-resolution AMOLED display, impressive camera setup, 5000 mAh battery, and a 120W charger, poses a significant challenge to flagship phones like the Galaxy S24, particularly for budget-conscious consumers.

Vivo X100 (Price: Rs 69,999 onwards) — Despite lacking the Pro model's one-inch main sensor, the Vivo X100 5G boasts a powerful camera setup in collaboration with Zeiss, featuring a 50-megapixel main sensor with OIS, a 64-megapixel telephoto camera (3.2x optical zoom), and a 50-megapixel ultrawide camera, delivering high-quality photography alongside impressive display specs, powered by a flagship MediaTek Dimensity 9300 chip and a quick-charging 5000 mAh battery, all encased in a stylish design with an IP68 rating for durability, although the FunTouch OS on Android 14 may feel a bit crowded to some users.

Google Pixel 7 Pro (Price: Rs 63,999 onwards) — The Pixel 7 Pro, despite being previous-gen, competes well with the S24, featuring a 6.7-inch quad HD AMOLED display, a powerful Tensor G2 processor, a triple camera setup (50+48+12), 5x optical zoom, 30x digital zoom, a 5,000mAh battery with wireless charging, timely Android updates, and the distinctive Pixel design with a camera bar.
