In a nutshell
Both are rated IP68, so both can take dust and a dunking. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold has the bigger 8-inch inner screen, a 3600-nit peak and a 10.8MP 5x telephoto. The iPhone Duo has a sharper 7.6-inch screen, a titanium frame, faster cable speeds and iOS.
The iPhone Duo suits you if you're staying on iPhone or want two 48MP cameras and the faster port. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold suits you if zoom and a brighter, bigger screen matter more, or you want to keep a physical SIM.

Screen quality
The Duo edges our screen score, 97 against 95, because its inner screen is sharper. The Pixel's screens are bigger and peak at 3600 nits against 3000, but our size mark tops out at 6.9 inches and our brightness mark at 3000 nits, so neither advantage shows in the bars.

Brightness:3600 nits peak on both Pixel screens against 3000 outdoors on the Duo.
