MODERATORS
If the Pixel 11 uses Samsung panels and the Galaxy S26 uses the same panels, what is the differentiator? Google software? Samsung OneUI? At that point you are paying for the software experience on identical hardware. Either the panel advantage was marketing or Google is overpaying for components Samsung builds at scale.
Do you think the panel is the only part of a phone that differentiates it from others?
