Pixel 5 vs Pixel 5 - How Different Are They - Pixel 5 Experiment

Hey guys, welcome back. This might be a pointless video for some, but I was curious as to what results I would get. This is the Pixel 5 versus the Pixel 5. The brand new one I got the other day, and this one, I've been reviewing for about a week. If you want to see the review to this, check the cards up in the top. There is a long review, and there is a quick 3 minute review on this as well.

Because of the 4k overheating on this, and the gap, I wanted to compare it to a brand new one. Just opened up the box today to see if it's got the gaps, to see if they overheat in 4k shooting, and just a general benchmark between the two. I'm not expecting much difference, but let's see what we get. Okay, so we have the two Pixel 5 devices here. This one on the left is the one I've been reviewing for the week, and this one in the right is the brand new version which came the other day.

They've both been factory reset. They've both been charged to 100%, which I'm going to unplug now. And we'll see how battery degrades as well, over these tests. Now might be barking up the wrong tree totally, but I'm gonna do a few tests. I want to test the 4k overheating as well, see if anything occurs there.

And we'll do some Geekbench tests, and stress tests as well. So same wallpaper, 100% battery, 100% battery, same signal, in terms of Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is connected to the same router, No Bluetooth on, no location, GPS on either. I've turned NFC off both as well. That, but yeah, exactly the same.

I can hear someone saying, "What about build number?" Okay. Build number is exactly the same on each one, so identical. And let's just check for updates, Security updates. Yeah, all the same. Okay.

First test is the restart test. I'm going to restart both these devices, and I did do this earlier just for a pre-test, and the new one for some reason, is delayed all the time. So I'll show you this first, both at the same time, bang. You'll see this one wins by quite a few seconds actually. Okay, so the older one has just booted up.

This one on the right, has just caught up. Wi-Fi is connected. Dropped a percent in battery as well. That's interesting. Now if I try and do it again, and slightly stagger it.

So this one lost. Let's restart this one first, and then I'll start that one. This one on the left is still ahead. Why? The same hardware, same software everything. Surely it should be exactly the same.

I don't know. This one wins. Even with a headstart, this new one on the right, is just lagging behind very slightly. Strange. Okay, so we'll look at some other stuff as well then.

Oh this is, it's fine. Now, let's do a Geekbench test on both of these. Accept. Okay, so Google Pixel 5, Qualcomm, 6 Cores, 1 Core, 1 Core. Yeah, so 8 Core alltogether.

Also in the Compute, Android, 5, Adreno 620. Yep, all the same. So let's try CPU benchmark, and let's run both of these. I don't know. This should be exactly the same, shouldn't they really? Give or take the odd number here and there, but there shouldn't be too much difference.

So they're neck and neck in terms of the tests. They're going exactly the same speed. If you notice, the one on the right is 98% battery. Now, can I put that down to maybe the Adaptive Battery technology? Because the one on the right hasn't been probably power cycled? Okay, so the older one just just finished ahead, and Multi Core Score: 1613. Single Core Score: 602.

So obviously, single core has a slight advantage on here, for the same specs. And again multi core, so it's very, very minimal. But, I hope this information is useful to someone. Single Core: 599. Okay, it compares it to other devices as well.

Multi Core: 1583. Okay. Benchmarks, about Compute. Run Compute Benchmarks. Go.

Okay so again, the one the left finishes just before the new one on the right, and again, there was a slight, subtle difference there. And throughout the test, you could see this one the left was ahead all the way throughout. I don't know why. Why there is a difference like that, but anyway. Get rid of them too.

I mean also look, 96% now on there, and 99 on the left one. Again, this has had more power cycles to train the battery. I was gonna do 3DMark, as well. Let's have a look at this, Allow, skip that. And let's go, bang.3DMark test. Okay, the test is done, and wow, the one on the right this time, for some reason, has come out on top.

Overall score: 1068. On the left is 991 and higher Average frame rate as well. That is quite interesting. Cool. So in both tests, there are subtle differences between both of them.

Let's just download an app and install one, shall we? Which one? This one looks alright, Install.96% battery, 98. And they both installed pretty quickly there. Starting both. Got it. Yeah, that seems to be pretty neck and neck as well.

Wonderful. Okay, so I'm gonna take a quick selfie with this one. That one and one with this one. And you shouldn't see a slightest bit of difference at all, with them. If you did, I think there would be something majorly wrong.

Okay, so what I'm gonna check next is the gap. So the one the right is the newer one. This is the one I've been using for a week, one on the left. We'll check to see if there's a gap on the new one. So after close inspection, on both of them, you can put paper down the end of each phone.

So it's now sliding in the gap between the screen, and the frame or the body. So if you've got any dust in there, that'll take it out. So that's the one I've been reviewing for a week. This is the brand new one. There you go.

Straight in. So they both seem to have that gap even with the brand new device. Okay, next is the 4k overheating test. I'm going to put both of them on 4k recording, 60 FPS, and see which one dies first. Or they might both be alright now, after a factory reset on this one the left.

I don't know. Both cameras are set up. They are in 4k, 60, on both. And I'm going to hit record and leave it running. Okay, so now they are both recording.

Okay, so both hit the seven-minute mark. The original one, left, which I've reviewed, overheated just over three minutes originally. Maybe a factory reset on the one on the left has remedied whatever it was. Let me feel how hot this is. That's quite hot.

Yeah, I think the one on the left is hotter. Shame we haven't got a thermometer to test which is hottest. Okay, so they both reached nine minutes. They've not stopped recording in 4k. That's still recording and it's hot.

I've just stopped it now. Let's see if we can start recording again after it stopped. Yeah, because originally, it was getting a warning, "It's too hot". But okay, it is fairly hot. Let's look at this one.

So again, this does feel warm. But it doesn't feel as hot as the other one. Stop that. Let's record again. Yeah.

So I can only really put that down to me doing the factory reset on this one here, the original I reviewed, first. It's a little bit strange. So factory reset has fixed the 4k overheating issue on there. In terms of performance, there is a minute differences. This one seems to come out on top most of the time, although this came on top with the GPU test.

The both have the gap at the bottom. Slides a little bit of paper in there as well. But the US version is different and they don't get that gap. So I don't know how true that is. The one on the left, 92% battery.

The one on the right, 90%. I guess I can only assume, that this one hasn't had enough power cycles for that Adaptive Battery technology. So to some of you, this is probably an absolute pointless and useless test, but to me or other people, some people might find it interesting. Thanks very much for watching, guys.
