A few things I miss dearly:

  1. Keyboard
  2. Voice typing (accuracy, punctuation, grammar etc.)
  3. Phone functionality (Call screening, Hold for me)
  4. Notifications
  5. Astrophotography (Pixel specific)
  6. Search. No suggestions and auto-fill when searching. Great for searching within the phone but always a multi-step process to search the web unless I launch Safari and search there.
  7. Universal back gesture
  8. Lastly and in general, I found Pixel phones are "smarter" than iPhones with built-in AI and ML sprinkled through out the phone.

You didn't ask, but the things I love about iPhone:

  1. Widgets - better looking

  2. FaceID

  3. Visual transitions and animations

  4. Battery on standby

I'll also add to the "love on iOS" list:
- Seemingly signs me into apps (with Chrome passwords) far, far more often/reliably than on my Pixel

I use a 3rd party password manager. I wouldn’t rely on either Google or Apple’s built in. Also makes it easy to switch ecosystems

Luckily ecosystem issues are less of a consideration now, with Apple thankfully supporting passwords from Chrome.
