Comparison review
The Google Pixel 5 has a score of 89, which is much better than the Xiaomi Poco M3's 78.2 score. Google Pixel 5's body is thinner and extremely lighter than the Xiaomi Poco M3, even though both were released with only 1 months difference. Google Pixel 5 has a little better hardware performance than Xiaomi Poco M3, and although they both have 8 CPU cores, the Google Pixel 5 also has a larger amount of RAM memory.
Google Pixel 5 counts with a little bit better looking display than Xiaomi Poco M3, because although it has a quite smaller display, and they both have exactly the same 1080 x 2340 resolution, the Google Pixel 5 also counts with a little bit higher display pixels density. Xiaomi Poco M3 counts with a better memory capacity to install applications and games than Google Pixel 5, because although it has just 64 GB internal memory capacity, it also counts with a SD memory card expansion slot that supports a maximum of 512 GB.
The Xiaomi Poco M3 features a bit better camera than Google Pixel 5, because although it has a smaller diafragm aperture which is not good for low-light captures and videos and slower 30 fps video frame rate, and they both have the same 1920x1080 (Full HD) video quality, the Xiaomi Poco M3 also counts with a much more MP back camera and a lot larger back-facing camera sensor shooting much higher quality videos and pictures.
Xiaomi Poco M3 has a way better battery life than Google Pixel 5, because it has 6000mAh of battery capacity instead of 4080mAh.
Although Google Pixel 5 is a better device, it costs a lot more money than the Xiaomi Poco M3, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as the Xiaomi Poco M3. So if you need that extra specs, you can buy Google Pixel 5, but if you don't you can save some dollars and get the Xiaomi Poco M3, letting go some specifications.
