The Google Pixel has a score of 80.2, which is better than Alcatel Idol 4S with Windows's 72.1 overall score.

The Google Pixel has a little sharper screen than Alcatel Idol 4S with Windows, because although it has a little bit smaller display, and they both have the same resolution of 1080 x 1920px, the Google Pixel also counts with a bit greater number of pixels in each inch of screen.
