Sedrick Campbell not really. They just want to spread their “message” and if google is transcribing the message for you the telemarketers will know that you’ve read it. This is better for them than being hung up on.
@@JustXavier no because the moment u know it's spam u hit spam button and it hangs up and blocks that number although my pixel 2 already has a spam blocker built in all calls Google detects spam gets sent right to VM my phone don't even show the call love it!!

Ihosvany Rodriguez blocking them is different than screening. Just for the screening piece...the telemarketers won’t care. It’ll count as a win for them. If you block them and they keep calling, who cares. But now, what the do is spoof local numbers so it’s a different number calling every time.

The perfect phone: -Samsung Note 9 Display, stylus, battery, and headphone jack -OnePlus dash charging -iPhone software optimization -Stock Android Pie or OnePlus's OxygenOS -Pixel 3 camera and speakers (or Razer phone speakers) -iPhone XS/XS Max video recording What do you guys think? (by the way I'm an Android fanboy)
There is only one phone that is perfect for me. The Note is much to big as I have small hands. the pixel 3/pixel 3xl does not have enough ram and the microphone is inexcusable. That's why the perfect phone for me is the Soulja Phone
@@nyjonathan Unbox Therapy is a UA-camr who makes tech videos. I'm guessing he is saying that you said the same thing he said in his video about the Google Pixel
I saw another video where a third party app hides the notch but keeps the status bar up next to the notch. Very nice looking. Google should have staight up implemented this method.
I have a ZTE blade Z Max ($100 phone) still the best phone for the price. I want the get a nice phone but the camera, screen brightness , notch & battery life is shit on the pixel 3. I expect more for the price. ✌️😎👍
When google makes a phone I feel like they just spin a wheel with different specs, and make whatever it lands on *spins wheel “Okay we will attach whatever mics we want” *spins wheel “Damn... great camera” *spins wheel “YES, Only 1 rear camera!”
Best review I've seen so far , pixel 3 xl , makes a really good software phone it's not trying to be a pretty phone that's what people don't understand, u want pretty get note 9 or iPhone xs u want jam pack full of software features get a pixel 3 or pixel 3 xl
Battery life and Display does matter even if you are not going for prettiness. That display is not as bright as other flagships and yet the battery life is not even ok.
@@reshad.h this is true but the color accurately is on point , the no blue shift, it's a (top notch) oled lol , so looking at it is a delight , in direct sunlight not so much , but in doors it's excellent, color reproduction is on point , I know the demo in my store looks gorgeous, love it

@@mrdadecounty3056 first of all, I hate apple products with a passion if u think I'm an apple guy. Secondly, I use my phone all the time in bright places. Besides I use my phone 8+ hours a day.

It is because in the original video, when comparing pics with the iPhone xs, he claimed to be using the Night Sight feature, Which he wasn't, since it isn't even available yet.
I swear Google changed something with the brightness slider in Android pie. After the up date I can't use my phone outside without it being at 100% and even using like 50% inside is sometimes too dark and it's super annoying.
thank you man. You really help me decide if I should get it or not. Although I would want you talk about the features like head phones and locking mechanism etc etc. Anyways you earned a sub!
I really love all the amazing UA-camrs on Tech but you are one of my favorites. You use the phone like the average consumer will use it, to give a more realistic insight on what it would be to actually use the phone in real world scenarios and it is a breath of fresh air.
Awesome video man! The feature that stood out to me the most is Top Shot. The way it captured the picture before you even pressed the capture button is nuts.
Fantastic review! Also Batten Ramen's curry is bomb, but their ramen is way too salty. Hit up Menya Sandaime for some seriously good ramen! It's only two minutes away by car, still in Fort Lee.
You know. I accept the notch because of the functionality of it. I came with a pretty good deal for this phone and I love it so much. The notch isn't a probem for me in matter of fact I like my icons being display at the very top edge of the screen. It's really an amazing phone. I'm blown away , I never had the chance to have a phone of this quality
0:52 I can definitely hear the audio issues with the mic. It sounds kind of bad and needs work. 2:58 UPS probably hates you for having so many packages piled up like that. That's like a mega-expensive liability for them. 3:55 RIP bee. LOL 400% zoom is impressive. _Top Shot_ is impressive. That _Screen Calling_ is definitely useful against these annoying telemarketers and scammers. 11:29 Bubble tea after ramen is perfection. Regardless of the phone you should always get a case and a screen protector.
Great video and actually someone using this phone outside instead of in a studio with WiFi. That camera is legit and the software seems solid. The deep notch, weak battery, and terrible mic are minor flaws but not deal breakers. Great year overall for smartphones...iPhone Max and Note 9 owner here and happy.
I adore these real day in the life videos. Can only imagine how long it takes to edit it in post pro. Takes me a good while to edit some of my own videos that aren't nearly up to this standard. Nice work uravgcouple! Don't stop these day in the life reviews 🤘
Am I the only one that doesn't think 4.5 hours screen on time is short? I suppose compared to other 2018 phones it's a bit underwhelming, which is kinda disappointing, but I don't think I've ever gotten near that number on any phone I've owned. Hell, my 3 y/o Nexus 6P is at 84% after only 12 mins of screen on time, lol
Yeah no offense, but 4.5 total hours of SOT is awful, esp in this day and age. I think what killed his Pixel 3XL battery in this video was that he had the screen at max brightness for a while, and I'm guessing he left GPS on after he left his car. I just got a Pixel XL (original) a month ago, and I'm averaging 8 hrs SOT running Pie with Nova as my launcher. It hit a "personal best" of 10 hours the other day ! Granted that was an atypical day (no LTE except for a phone call, no camera use nor GPS or Bluetooth). But so far I'm thrilled that a 2016 phone can consistently get such good battery life running current software. It's really sold me on the benefits of stock Android. I don't think I *ever* got 9-10 hrs SOT on my Samsung Note 5; even 7-8 was not typical, certainly not as it started to age. Average now is 4-6 hrs SOT if I'm lucky; that's why I bought the Pixel. Sounds like you may need a new phone too, amigo. 😁
Oh, I definitely know I need a new phone (my 3 XL is suppose to arrive tomorrow). But idk, I guess considering my 6P has never really gotten me much more than 2 hours SOT (even when brand new), 4.5 hours seems perfectly fine and like it'll easily get me through a day. The idea of a multi-day phone isn't really important to me since I can just top it off every night anyway. It's also important to remember that all of this varies depending on how you use your phone ... a phone that is a 3 hours SOT phone for one person may be 6 hours SOT for someone else. It sounds like you use your phone in a way that doesn't use up much extra power, that's not reality for everyone. Not to mention I've never heard of anyone getting 8-10 hours SOT on any phone (even friends with the Note 9 say they're maxing out at like 6.5 on a good day and usually are more around 5).
I'm sorry but the Note 9 has a bigger battery life, no notch, headphone jack and you can find it at less than 700 now... Pixel 3 is a disappointment to me compared to the Pixel 2
Sadly the display only gets to 405 nits on max brightness and the battery life looks like shit. Seriously just 4.5 hours of screen on time? OnePlus 6T is going to crush this thing in price and battery life.
I agree with Mr_Chukes, what it lacks in certain areas it more than makes up for in others. While the 6T is cool, it definitely doesn't match the pixel in the scope of real world uses.
@@J.0.E. User experience and software is arguably right up there with the Pixel if not better. OnePlus phones don't slow down at all. Meanwhile there's been numerous complaints of that happening with the Pixel 2. They're equal with customer service too, both require you to ship your device out for repair if you want it repaired by them. Google's customer service sucks too, they literally read straight from a script. Both pale in comparison to Apple's service, but at least One plus isn't charging Apple esque prices like Google is. And the only thing I've noticed the pixel is better at is portrait mode. Regular photos look just as good in almost every circumstance, and OP6 doesn't exhibit black crush like the pixel does. Google isn't doing enough to justify their high prices.
@@myNEONCITY naw the pixel is smoother than the OnePlus 6 and customer service is horrible at OnePlus. You have to send hella emails before you can even get a call. Google has 24/7 customer service through the phone, you can even message them from your phone or have them call you. Plus google will send you a device before you send yours. You just have to out a hold on a car.
*Pixel 3 XL - The big Notch in the life review* Just kidding other than that Notch I appreciate everything pixel has done in this phone with outstanding Cameras🔥❤️ *Ps-you can Checkout my channel and it's free and I really appreciate it,thank you* 😊
Ur Day in the Life Reviews are legendary! Every time a new phone comes out I cant wait to get a Notification :D! And for the battery life... well, was the Bluetooth and GPS on all the time? Thats maybe a reason for fast battery drain! Keep on bro!
How sad...is this a phone review or camera review. Companies nowadays have nothing left to do on a phone so they just focus on camera to make you feel like you have to have it.
Yo! Thanks for the great review!! Your one of my favorite reviewers on You Tube!! Keep up the excellent reviews! I'm getting the Pixel 3 XL tomorrow!!!!
It'd be cool if you did a "Day in the Life Revisited" for older phones. Just to see how they hold up over time.
that's a very good idea
Sharukh Mithani | I had that thought earlier as well xD I think it’d be interesting.
That would be dope... if he used the same phone for more than a week or two lol
Sharukh Mithani FUCK YEAH
He should fr do that
The testing of the Top Shot feature was beyond impressive and very much a real-world test of it.
it's like being Barney in photos from HIMYM :))
Loved it as well
top shot = automated version of iPhone's burst mode
One of the best reviews for pixel 3 till now .
Hello brother
Top shot is perfect for anyone with kids. You know how hard it is to get the perfect shot with a little monster moving around.
I was going to wait for the oneplus 6t until I read this comment. Capturing my 2 year old has been impossible! Thanks
I would love to take a quick snap of my friend that doesn't want his picture taken lol
edward espinal That is my biggest gripe with my XS... Have 20 month old twins and I can get a nice shot of them maybe 2x out of 40 shots lol
That was my first thought too!! Can't wait to be able to capture my little nephew with this, he's a nightmare for my DSLR to focus on!! lol!
trueee
There is absolutely no excuse for the mic being that bad
ikr... it's a premium phone, it should have premium mic as well
The Pixel 2 XL had the same problem at launch. It used the wrong mic for some reason, but they made the camera use the correct one with an update, so it's easily fixable

Trash. 🗑
To be fair, not everyone is always out (full brightness) and always have data/LTE on which drains any battery. Great video!
The audio when the pixel records is horrid. 😒
Software issue

do you know it for sure that pixel 3 uses the wrong mic?
yes
How could you possibly know that for sure?
They're adding support for external mics to plug directly in, just fyi.

-Samsung Note 9 Display, stylus, battery, and headphone jack
-OnePlus dash charging
-iPhone software optimization
-Stock Android Pie or OnePlus's OxygenOS
-Pixel 3 camera and speakers (or Razer phone speakers)
-iPhone XS/XS Max video recording
What do you guys think?
(by the way I'm an Android fanboy)
Note 9 and pixel 3 almost have the same camera (i think the note 9 is better and the best phone of 2018)
Mate 20 pro camera before pixel for sure
Yudi Derp Pixel 3 is better

Top shot is like barney. always looking good in Photos
TiBe Gamer lol my first thought was the purple dinosaur.
That screen calling feature is really useful for people who don't answer to unknown phone numbers. Literally me lol
I wish when you hide the notch, it would still display the time and battery in the upper portion of the device.

Loving the video, my dude. The "Day in the Life" has gotta be one of my favourite styles of review.
your videos are so welcoming and unique from other tech reviewers. you actually take us the the real experience

I swear Google changed something with the brightness slider in Android pie. After the up date I can't use my phone outside without it being at 100% and even using like 50% inside is sometimes too dark and it's super annoying.
Sounds like adaptive brightness is on?
They actually changed it to logarithmic.
You're right , I've noticed that too
What Hans Wurst said. They changed it to logarithmic instead of a linear brightness scale now.
Noticed that with Android 9 Pie straight up too. It's really annoying. About to submit a bug report hoping they make it an option.
This phone is a beast. I got it for $300 a year after release. The notch doesn't bother me. I love it.
Is it out for real this time? 🧐

Not to mention I've never heard of anyone getting 8-10 hours SOT on any phone (even friends with the Note 9 say they're maxing out at like 6.5 on a good day and usually are more around 5).
@@Sharky165 hows is it treating you a month in? Looking for a new phone
Really dope video! Hope this video gets it's well deserved millions of views
Bro results and the top shot killed it
Always wait for your day in the life videos specifically! Also what kind of phone mount do you use in your vehicle? Lookin for a good quality one
I'm sorry but the Note 9 has a bigger battery life, no notch, headphone jack and you can find it at less than 700 now... Pixel 3 is a disappointment to me compared to the Pixel 2
TheOldMan 59 unfortunately the camera is weak and good luck getting P
Samsung bloaty
I’m sorry but the Pixel 3 has the better camera. Better software and it’s not infested with blowtation.
@@rickjason215 yeah it's true that you spend 100% of the time on camera mode when using your phone...

This was the first day in the life video I saw, and I really liked it, I have a so and watched that one and you got a new subscriber now.
Sadly the display only gets to 405 nits on max brightness and the battery life looks like shit. Seriously just 4.5 hours of screen on time? OnePlus 6T is going to crush this thing in price and battery life.
Not in user experience, camera, customer service, or software.
I agree with Mr_Chukes, what it lacks in certain areas it more than makes up for in others. While the 6T is cool, it definitely doesn't match the pixel in the scope of real world uses.
@@J.0.E. User experience and software is arguably right up there with the Pixel if not better. OnePlus phones don't slow down at all. Meanwhile there's been numerous complaints of that happening with the Pixel 2. They're equal with customer service too, both require you to ship your device out for repair if you want it repaired by them. Google's customer service sucks too, they literally read straight from a script. Both pale in comparison to Apple's service, but at least One plus isn't charging Apple esque prices like Google is. And the only thing I've noticed the pixel is better at is portrait mode. Regular photos look just as good in almost every circumstance, and OP6 doesn't exhibit black crush like the pixel does. Google isn't doing enough to justify their high prices.
@@myNEONCITY naw the pixel is smoother than the OnePlus 6 and customer service is horrible at OnePlus. You have to send hella emails before you can even get a call. Google has 24/7 customer service through the phone, you can even message them from your phone or have them call you. Plus google will send you a device before you send yours. You just have to out a hold on a car.
@@myNEONCITY Also the screen on the pixels are better than the ones on the OnePlus.
Love the format, this is an incredibly useful and engaging way to do a review. Mine will be here tomorrow, looking forward to it!
The audio is Garbage I like iPhone and Samsung better. Don't like the pixel but I enjoy a day in the life keep up the creative work 👍🏾
That should get fixed in a software update, looks like Pixel is using the wrong microphone again
Sou Illuminat I like the camera I've been using Android phone for years now I'm holding off on cellphone for the rest of the year.
Great review format! Subscribed. I have the smaller 3, but this is all relevant.
Battery will get better over time bc of Google's battery optimization
Convenient excuse
@@metaitachi He's right. It took sometime but I'm getting better battery life than I did when I first got my 2 XL.
Takes for understanding give the phone a chance too
Best review of the google pixel yet. Awesome job.
I appreciate it man!
UrAvgConsumer no problem man. Keep up the great work.

So subscribing, what an awesome review ! looking foward to the oneplus 6t and samsung galaxy 10 reviews
Love from pakistan 💚💚
Ur Day in the Life Reviews are legendary! Every time a new phone comes out I cant wait to get a Notification :D! And for the battery life... well, was the Bluetooth and GPS on all the time? Thats maybe a reason for fast battery drain! Keep on bro!
Is it just me or is it that the pixel 3xl has a really bad microphone?
I'm really liking your real day in a life series. Good work!
How sad...is this a phone review or camera review. Companies nowadays have nothing left to do on a phone so they just focus on camera to make you feel like you have to have it.
Yo! Thanks for the great review!! Your one of my favorite reviewers on You Tube!! Keep up the excellent reviews! I'm getting the Pixel 3 XL tomorrow!!!!
Trying to enjoy the video but all I can see is that notch
You're the most Unbiased and underrated UA-camr man !
Uuuh .... That notch just look at me throughout the video
Just met your channel, and I think I've found great content! Really nice video!
