I got this on 120$ in 2024 and I am pretty happy with it. The size, haptics, speakers, speed is mind blowing for this price. Plus I love the face unlock. This phone gives you an iphone experience in android skeleton
@@rossniem original one yes, I can't speak for the others. I had a pixel 6 pro and the picture quality was not better than my pixel xl and I ended up giving the pixel 6 pro back
LOVED my 4 XL. Back in 2019 I didn't know what bad battery life was, I was early into my techy years. I loved the look, the feel, Face Unlock, and the cameras.
@@rossniem I think another thing that really helps this phone was the use of a snapdragon chip, tensor is getting there but I always wonder what the Pixel 8’s could do with a gen 2/3 chip in. Imagine the battery life gains
@@ItsCamplicated yeah I get it, I really want Google to stick with tensor to see what they can do with it. But for now we are stuck with a worse chip while they work it out.
New subscriber here. I dont know why you dont have more subscribers. I loved the video, i like your energy. Keep it goin mate. Btw pixel 4 was the first pixel i wanted so bad😂😂 but i couldn't have it. The first pixel phone i owned is the pixel 8
People have said it a lot, but the 4xl was peak Pixel design. It has amazing face unlock and a premium design with a flagship processor in it. I never had the 4xl but wanted it. My first one was a 4a and have several pixel models after that. I’ve heard battery life isn’t all that great on the 4xl but I have to admit to me it’s the best looking design they ever made.
The 4 XL is my favorite Pixel and it's easy to replace the battery with something with more amps. 4XL absolutely smokes my pixel 7 in every way. Even the flashlight on the four is better than the seven let alone the performance and stability. whenever I can find a 4XL new for under $300 I buy them
Really good video, what's up with the subscribers? You will have more soon! I carry the Samsung S23 Ulta and this as secondary because it's still choice.
Been an year using pixel 4 oh so orange color and this is really a pocket beast. Premium phone at 200$ here in india. Absolutely loving it and im set with it for atleast another year.
Still rocking my white 4xl. The great thing is that you can pretty pick up any pixel in the range that had a one-off feature in it, this was face unlock etc, and I love it. There's something about an older device that just gives a bit of nostalgia when using them (speaking as a person who uses his 2nd gen NeXus7 every single day
@@rossniem I know exactly what you mean. rocking android lollipop on my Nexus 7, blazing fast, uncluttered and works fine with all the modern Google Workspace stuff....really makes a person question if upgrades are "really" worth it
Tell me you're planning on doing a video on the Pixel 2 xl and Google Daydream.....I have a spare daydream, happy to donate for the channel ...let me know and keep up the good work 👍
@@rossniem Happy to donate a daydream for the channel. I recently upgraded mine from gen 1 to gen 2 (slightly wider lenses), so have one spare. Genuinely happy to donate and support the channel, just let me know 👍🏻
I have a Pixel 4XL since 2020 after been the owner of Pixel 2XL. For 2024 and because I didn't want to spent 800-900 euros in new phone I decided to offer to him a nice refurb. New chassis with screen pre installed, just have to transfert all components to their new house, new battery and let's go for 4 years more... I hope.
One question if you purchase an older android phone in which the life cycle for OS and Security updates has already ended will the phone automatically update to the latest OS and security update that was available for the phone?
Good question, when I've been collecting these phones they were already set to the latest software update they could have. But if they are not it's easy to update them. Just go to Settings, System the Software Updates.
still feels more premium than any other phone I've used including the pixel 8 pro (that thing is hefty) and most people go for the matte snowy white or orange color but I love my piano black more. Best pixel ever hands down
Still rocking it, i boight a pixel 6a replacement battery and need to spot weld it to the bms (had it working but i got sick so put the project away) and ill upgrade the 4 xl battery to 4700mah, ehich in turn means i can keep using this phone while cranking all the features on
Great video which I found just before buying my XL. I'm a little concerned now with it being out of date with apps etc. is it still a good choice for 2024....
Have you recently had a repair done? I think a few people had that after getting their phones repaired even if the repair wasn't related to that part of the phone. I'd contact pixel support on your phone at the bottom of the settings.
no 4k@60 fps, no ultra wide , no front camera ultra lens either nor does have a face unlock. the most googly phone of all time. i still own the pixel 4 tho as my daily driver.
@@rossniem true even after its manyquirks i like it most after my pixel 2xl (which was also panda color). if it the above features and 4500mah which would make it perfect but we wont have value it much. But it still has unique features like soli, true face unlock, active edge, unlimited google photos storage. which even the newer models lack.
Do you give me that phone😊 I want to use pixel experience

Just purchased P9 Pro XL, but until it arrives, my main drive is still my 5 year old P4 XL. Love this phone, but it's the battery lately that started to bother me...

Yeah it’s really good value for money and such a nice design
And this is why we love it
I still have the pixel xl. The pictures and videos from that phone is still better than some of today's phones
Pixel cameras have always been sooo good!
@@rossniem original one yes, I can't speak for the others. I had a pixel 6 pro and the picture quality was not better than my pixel xl and I ended up giving the pixel 6 pro back
@@mohammedfaiisal never give up your original pixel anyway as it gives you unlimited photo storage, keep it as a side phone.
I'm still rocking a Pixel 4 😁
Such a great phone
How is the battery holding up?
@@adityamishra611 it's not bad at all, if I started the day at 100% I'd have top it up when I got home from work to last me the rest of the day.

What size battery did you get put in? I might upgrade mine too
@@rossniem I had it done at a shop in the mall. I believe we went for a 37 to a 45, and surprisingly, it made quite a difference.

I have to admit, that is a cool looking phone in the 'panda' colours with the orange button. Liked the inclusion of the podcast footage also 👍
Yeah I 100% got the best color option. I wasn't sure about including the podcast footage but it worked out pretty well!
@@rossniem yeah I think it worked well in there, added a nice element (and hopefully will drive viewers towards watching the full interview)
I completely agree. The 4XL was the best pixel.

Yep, mine too and I have the Pixel 3xl the Pixel 4xl 6xl 7x and now the 8xl. Pix 4 is my fave all time...
You have more pixels than I do!
Above 5 pixel models name changed XL to Pro @@rossniem
still feels more premium than any other phone I've used including the pixel 8 pro (that thing is hefty) and most people go for the matte snowy white or orange color but I love my piano black more. Best pixel ever hands down
Most underrated pixel ever
By the way activate the toggle for required opened eyes
the white panda color is the best
Still rocking it, i boight a pixel 6a replacement battery and need to spot weld it to the bms (had it working but i got sick so put the project away) and ill upgrade the 4 xl battery to 4700mah, ehich in turn means i can keep using this phone while cranking all the features on
There are so many people that loved the 4XL so much they just bought a bigger battery for it. Wish I had done that!
Great video which I found just before buying my XL. I'm a little concerned now with it being out of date with apps etc. is it still a good choice for 2024....
Yeah most popular apps require android 9 or higher so you should be good 👍
@@rossniem
That's great. Was considering selling it but may keep it now. Thank you.
Bro how to order google pixel 4xl.....I'm from Philippines?
Been using 2xl, 3xl, 4xl, 7 pro and 8 pro
4xl was the longest pixel i used, almost 5 years..for me 4xl the best pixel, and 2xl panda is the 2nd
100% agree
Please help me, my pixel 4xl face unlock doesn't work at all, Whenever i try to use face lock it keeps saying "CERTIFICATE EXPIRED"
Have you recently had a repair done? I think a few people had that after getting their phones repaired even if the repair wasn't related to that part of the phone. I'd contact pixel support on your phone at the bottom of the settings.
I'm using pixel 4a
I never used that one but heard great things
hahaha meanwhile im still rocking the 3xl
I tried to buy the 3XL yesterday but someone beat my bid
no 4k@60 fps, no ultra wide , no front camera ultra lens either nor does have a face unlock.
the most googly phone of all time.
i still own the pixel 4 tho as my daily driver.
This phone had alot of problems, but i loved this thing!
@@rossniem true even after its manyquirks i like it most after my pixel 2xl (which was also panda color).

@@rossniem in the above i mentioned face unlock instead of fingerprint scanner.
To Google.
Just make it 5g.
And i will buy it again
There’s still lots of love out there for this phone!
@@rossniem RIGHT I AM THINKING TO BUY PIXEL 7A OR 7 BUT ALSO I THOUGHT THAT MAY BE I WILL BUY PIXEL 4XL AND FOR 5G JUST BUY ANY MOBIL3 UNDER 10000 RS
Do you give me that phone😊 I want to use pixel experience
Just purchased P9 Pro XL, but until it arrives, my main drive is still my 5 year old P4 XL. Love this phone, but it's the battery lately that started to bother me...
I really wanted the 9 pro XL! I'm jealous 😂. Think I'm going be picking up one of the Pixel 8's.
Bro...ur audio sucks!cant hear u well...
If you think it's bad now you should watch an old video 😂
