Would really appreciate some input here
I’m looking to buy a new phone after 2 years with the iPhone 7 and 2 years with a 5S before that.
Currently considering the Pixel 5, iPhone 11, XR, and the S20 FE.
Any suggestions?

Better go with iPhone 11. You'll have a smooth transition.
noted, thank you
Iphone 11 if you want to consider iOS and samsung S20 fe if you want to take Android. If you want to take Google then pixel 4a 5g would be better value for money.
4a > 5?
I think so.. Pixel 4a 5g is better value for money. The only thing which separate these 2 are refreshing rate and screen size. Pixel 4a 5g version has bigger size but lesser refreshing rate.
If you want to switch to a iPhone- iphone 11 If you want to switch to an android- pixel 5, because of the smoother more refined software and the better camera software compared to the s20 fe
i’m not against the idea of going to android, but i think the i might not like the adjustment. iOS has been great and only sometimes i’ve wanted more customization
The pixel 5 might just be the best android phone that fulfills all requirements of a phone . The Samsung phones this year just have too much stuff that probably only a photographer needs.
Don't wanna switch to Android- iPhone 11
Wanna switch to Android-
Best overall- S20 FE
Best camera- Pixel 5
If you like still want to stay on iOS then get the iPhone 11 don't and consider switching to android then get the S20 FE
Those are 4 very different phones for different types of people. The 11 is gonna be the "just works, just good all around" option.
Pixel 5 has a midrange chip but otherwise is a really good option for easing into Android while also showing off what Android phones can be capable of.
The S20 FE is a flagship phone with a couple areas cut back a bit to save money. It's gonna be a powerhouse.
Xr is the "I want a modern iPhone but I want to save money" option. It's honestly not bad at all but if the iPHone 11 is an option you probably just end up going with that.
Honorable mention: Pixel 4a 5G?
Pixel would be a good phone to test the waters of android, but if you are happy with ios, the 11 is a very solid phone
If you're into iOS and don't want to switch, I would not reccomend the XR. That phone is two years old now, and the iPhone 11 is a much better value for not much more money.
As for the Android options, both the S20 FE and the Pixel 5 are good choices but they're very different devices. The S20 FE has all the bells and whistles and might be a bit overwhelming for a new iOS convert, while Pixel 5 is sort of like the iPhone for Android.
is there that much of a difference between the XR and 11?
Although they both compete at the same level and 11 is the predecessor of the xr, the 11 gives you better hardware (camera, processor, etc.), at a lower price. Plus its just newer.
the XR is cheaper, no? at my provider the 11 is $100CAD more, but i’m not sure if the 11 is worth 100 more
Maybe the pricing is different in your region, but I would argue the $100 is def worth it.
