The Pixel 5 comes with 8GB of RAM, while the 4 XL packs 6GB, so you should see pretty much the same levels of performance in all but the most demanding of apps. This means the 4 XL can handle apps and multitasking better than its newer sibling. That said, the 4 XL uses the powerful 855 chip, while the Pixel 5 settles for the slightly less capable 765. Performance, battery life, and charging Julian Chokkattu/Digital Trendsīoth the Pixel 5 and the 4 XL come with Qualcomm Snapdragon processors. This makes things pretty equal between the two phones, and with the Pixel 5 looking better - while the 4 XL has the better screen - we’re calling this round a tie. Both phones do support a 90Hz refresh rate, so even though the 4 XL is noticeably better, you won’t be disappointed by the Pixel 5.īoth smartphones come with the same IP68 rating, which should mean they can cope with submersion in 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes (as well as exposure to dust). This is still good, but with the Pixel 4 XL also having an AMOLED (rather than OLED) display, the overall impression is that last year’s phone gives you more to look at. By contrast, the Pixel 5’s 6-inch screen packs 2340 x 1080 pixels, meaning it offers a less attention-grabbing 432 ppi. At 6.3 inches and 3040 × 1440 pixels, it provides a satisfying 537 pixels per inch (ppi). On the other hand, there’s no doubt that the Pixel 4 XL has the more impressively vivid screen. It’s also 32 grams lighter and is about 16cm shorter and 5cm less wide, making it more comfortable to hold for extended periods of time. The Pixel 5 gets rid of that eyesore, replacing it with a pretty edge-to-edge display that looks very smart, even if it isn’t quite as eye-catching as other 2020 flagships. The 4 XL may have been big and bright, but it was let down by a very large forehead bezel.

There’s no denying it: The Pixel 5 is a better-looking smartphone than the Pixel 4 XL.
