Which should you buy?
The Magic V3 edges ahead on the Mars Score (71.7 vs 64.5), but the 7.2-point gap is small enough that the right pick comes down to which spec advantages matter to you.
Pick the Magic V3 if you photograph or shoot video regularly and want the better imaging pipeline of the two. The biggest gaps in its favor are wireless charging, wired charging, front camera, among others.
Pick the Pixel 10 if the display is what you stare at all day — refresh rate, brightness, or sharpness is where the difference will be most visible. Its strongest claims are weight, pixel density, promised os updates.
Both ship with comparable main camera, refresh rate, 5g support, so those specs do not separate the two — focus on the differences below.
