One area where

Apple can improve,

however, is startup time

from a full shutdown. The

Pixel 4 XL obliterated the

other phones, and the

iPhone consistently came

in last place, even if only

by a second or two:

Pixel 4 XL: 11 seconds

Galaxy S10+: 19

seconds

OnePlus 7T: 20 seconds

iPhone 11: 21 seconds

Granted, we rarely

restart our phones—and

the iPhone needs it even

less often than the

Android phones here—

but I’d still like to see

Apple get closer to the

Pixel with the iPhone 12.

The results here

underscore my

frustrations with the Pixel 4 XL: If Google can

optimize startup time, why can’t it do the same

with the rest of Android? The Galaxy S10+ and

OnePlus 7T basically run circles around the

Pixel 4, but neither can touch the iPhone’s

The iPhone 11 performs more than twice as many browser tasks as the
closest top-of-the-line Android phone.
