After launching the Pixel 10 series, the Pixel Watch 4, the Pixel Buds 2A, and other excellent gadgets, we compare our reviews of all Google’s latest gear.

Is a smartwatch better than a smartphone? Not which one is more important or which would you rather have, but simply which one is better? This is the kind of question you really never need to ask — but we’re here to ask it.

Why? Because Google has had a terrific year of gadget launches, from Pixel phones to Pixel Watches. For the first time ever, the Pixel lineup is a formidable competitor in every category in which it competes. But only one Pixel can be the best Pixel. On this episode of The Vergecast, The Verge’s Allison Johnson and Victoria Song join David to try and define the official Pixel ranking. There are six products available: the Pixel phones, the Pixel A-series phones, the Pixel Fold, the Pixel Watch, the Pixel Buds, and the Pixel Tablet. With the help of a new tool called the Rank-o-meter, the three hosts set out to put the six products in their correct order. Subscribe: Spotify | Apple Podcasts | Overcast | Pocket Casts | More Ranking them requires considering everything from their price to their competition to their overall immeasurable awesomeness. There is no simple conversion chart, but ultimately, our three hosts agreed on a ranking. If you agree, disagree, or just want to yell at us about our picks, call the Vergecast Hotline at 866-VERGE11, or email vergecast@theverge.com. Here’s our final order: * Sixth place: Pixel Tablet * Fifth place: Pixel Fold * Fourth place: Pixel Buds * Third place: Pixel phones * Second place: Pixel Watch * First place: Pixel A-series After the ranking discussion finishes, Allison sticks around to help David answer a question from the Vergecast Hotline all about the Light Phone, dumbphones, and the anti-smartphone movement. Or can we even call it a movement? That’s the question. If you want to know more about everything we discuss in this episode, here are some links to get you started: * Google Pixel Tablet review: the dock makes all the difference * Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold review: finally, a more durable foldable * Google Pixel Buds 2A review: the right kind of compromise * Google Pixel 10 review: perfectly fine * Google Pixel 10 Pro and 10 Pro XL review: AI, Qi2, and a spec bump too * The Google Pixel Watch 4 is the Android watch to beat * Google Pixel 9A review: a midrange phone done right
