[GOOGLE PIXEL 3 REVIEW]
Among Star Trek fans, “Kobayashi Maru” is synonymous with “no-win scenario” … and this year in mobile tech, my Kobayashi Maru is the Pixel 3 review. Because this phone is marred by so much controversy and compromise that phone geeks will flay me for even suggesting it’s worth its asking price ... while at the same time, the normal folks at whom the phone is aimed will see a fantastic iPhone XS alternative for $200 less -- and for them, the defects I call out may seem barely worth a mention. As usual, reality is somewhere in between. Join me as I try to tease the truth from the trash, in the MrMobile Google Pixel 3 Review!

*Good to see someone actually reviewing the normal Pixel 3. Everyone else seems to be reviewing the Notch 3 XL*
Alternative Tech Reports because that’s the thing that pops out the most. You can ignore the stupid notch on the phone.
Most reviewers tend to go for the larger device (although to be fair the larger device is usually more powerful).
Yes, the reviewers, and the manufacturers are sizing their phones up, like everyone wants to carry a smaller sized television.
While there is a significant section of the population aren't happy about the larger devices. The optimal size should be what the iphones used to be, or for example, the LG G6 or the Galaxy S8/sS9 non-plus.
Yes considering almost all the specs are identical
So.. do you recommend the phone?
Really enjoyed talking to you guys in the Premiere chat! Gotta get back to filming now but hit me with more questions below and I'll try my best to answer the top-voted handful. On to the next phone!
Can you describe how life looks like switching phones every couple of weeks (or every couple days in case of Oct)? Do you have a dedicated Google account just for review or you use your real account and had to keep your apps to minimum to quickly setup new phones?
What is your daily driver?
wallpaper link at 1:25 plz michael Fisher
Thoughts on the OnePlus 6T? Valid Upgrade or Temporary Flagship? (Wait For The Samsung Galaxy S10?)
I think the Pixel 3s processing takes night shots to the extreme. Many photos look like they were shot during the afternoon not during the night.
Mr. Mobile FTW!!!!
How are those daily avengers articles going?
The legend comments!
My brain read that as WTF for a moment lol
So did I.
What da hell is ftw ?
Extremely comprehensive review. Mirrors my experience.
Julian Rafael Hassan Roden How have you found the battery life? I'm coming from a OP6 whose battery I loved (not speaking about DASH charging but I found the battery lasted me all day and then some)
@@ahmaddhooma920 5 hours screen on time with heavy usage.
What about if you use it solely on LTE ? how much it'd give you ?
@@Ensifolk I haven't left my house in days cause the world is a horrible place. So I've just been using WiFi. Lol
Hahhaa you totally right ! 5 hours SOT on Wifi ! Damn not too impressive TBH ! nothing major over my Pixel 2
Gotta love tech depreciation, the 799$ flagship just got one for less than 100$. 90% off in about 18 months. Moral of the story, don't rush to buy tech gadget, wait a little while and you could get a stupidly good deal.
Really? Share with me WHERE you got it for less than $100? Everywhere I look, it is much higher, even in 2021.
Eli AdlerI just bought one on eBay for $80 after tax seller has more should be pretty high on the search
Man you make good reviews!! Keep up the good work Mr. Mobile,wish you all the best!!
Commented 2 minutes after the upload on a 9 minute video 🤔
@@kevin9284 It had a premier bro,I streamed it then...
It's $200 off now from the Google store. Love my Pixel 3. You didn't even mention that it has automatic backup of photos, no limit
I have a pixel 3 and pixel 2 great phones. Period
@@jakey20022 well besides the Google pixel 2 screen burn in
Im tempted to jump to the 3 XL from my iphone X
No
No, get the 3 and keep your X. Best of both worlds.
Also I'm 2 years too late...
@@auliamate LOL
Pixel 3xl here. No other issues aside from the aggressive-ass RAM management WHICH can be alleviated with an update. No love lost. I'm enjoying this phone.
Life of Luis the RAM is simply not enough. I don’t think google can fix it.
Also the mic on video is not very good
You took the NOTCH man, why :((((
@@therealestmc85 I had the 2xl and the RAM was fine with the same apps I have on the 3xl. It's enough. Google is efficient.
@@Adalbdl this is true. I don't do video at all, so, not really concerned.
The way he poses for the camera reminds me of Ben Stiller in Zoolander!🤫
I was thinking Ben Stiller "There's Something About Mary"
The whole *point* of gestures is to remove the navigation bar for more immersive screen on these near bezelles phones. Google somehow managed to fail at understanding this concept...
Just adopt the iphone X gestures if you cant figure anything by yourself, but that navigation bar has to go away. We went a step back here, gestures *and* nav bar. Great job Google..
Agreed. I was excited about gestures because I thought it meant full screen real estate. Maybe next year.
you can get read of it via an app
I actually tried an iPhone xs and the pixel 3 and found myself learning the gestures of the pixel much faster on the X's for me it was very hard to bring out all the other tabs
Oneplus' gesture is awesome tho.
I never use gestures. Maybe because I am still using a galaxy grand prime.
It’s been years since getting a new phone. Landed on Pixel 3 ($499 deal @ Google) and seeing all you guys complain about these little quirky, unnecessary “problems” blows my mind. *_GASP nOt a NotiFicatioN tAb_*
Who cares geez
Who else just bought the Pixel 3 in 2021?
Why?
“Reality is somewhere in between”
Nothing about the phone here, but the intro is written and narrated perfectly
Sounded like a trailer or something hahaha
I agree! I really enjoyed it!
Great review as always! I do love my Pixel 3, coming from a Pixel 2 XL.
Dear Pixel 3
As I type this, I can't help but feel a twinge of sadness. You're approaching your final stages, about to take that last charge and bid farewell to the waking world. I'm grateful for the moments we've shared.
The memories you've faithfully captured will remain timeless, etched in the digital tapestry of my life. Your compact size made it effortless to cradle you with just one hand, a comfort that will be missed. Goodbye, dear Pixel 3. You've been a reliable companion, and your pixelated legacy will linger on.
Farewell my dear friend. You will be dearly missed.
Love
Jay
I got one for $70 on ebay brand new condition. Seller said it wasn't accepting simcards. I bought it inserted my simcard and a message about contacting t-mobile to unlock it popped up. I downloaded the t-mobile unlocking app from the playstore and tried the permanent unlocked and it worked. I literally jumped for joy when the bars and lte showed up top.
there is an additional feature of Pixel. you can write notes on its back glass without using S pen. 😂😀
Good Job Google 👏 Innovation
Lol. Nice one bro.
I loled ... but I also haven't gotten any scratches to "stick" on the matte portion of the glass. They wipe off with a little dab of water.
@@TheMrMobile haha thanks Michael fisher for replying ❤❤ love from Pakistan
Only works with the black version
There you go just carry a white chalk and scribe away.
I've been looking at video reviews for ages and I think yours might be my favorite.
Great review. Glad to hear feedback on vibration motors, something most other reviews leave out, which is surprising since it affects the majority of our smartphone experience. And I had the exact same negative experience with gestures on Pie
The Price is different for all places in the world, the only notable thing that kept me from buying a Pixel here in the Philippines, is the price. Its not $800 like in the United States, but more like $1200 in the Philippines. For that much money, even if I really like to have that phone as my daily driver for the next 3 years, I just couldn't.
BTW. The iPhone XS here starts at $1250 and the top of the range XS Max with 512GB is almost $2000.
Wow what a REVİEW! leaving others behide 👏🏻
hmmm 128gb pixel 3 xl tops out at $1000, not 900. Glad you called out the wacky pie gestures. Thought it was just me who can't stand them.
I'm still using Pixel 3 4 years later and I'm loving it a lot, CPU is still powerful enough (switch Emulator run great) speaker still sound great without distortion with time like some phones and no screen burn in, I installed Pixel Experience for Android 13's latest security update and improved Vulkan performance
I just bought one for ósme petty money. How do I install Android 13 on this thing?
Another great review, Michael! I picked up the 3 last week and agree with all your points. I love the gestures on iOS, but Android 9.0 has broken navigation. Also, I sorely miss the old vertical cards. Hopefully 9.X fixes a lot of the software issues.
Agree with everything in your review, thanks for that!! The camera just blows me away, makes me much more aware of taking pictures in my daily life, and I am always 1000% pleased with the way they are coming out. Love the build with the glass back, it feels so simple and premium. NOT a fan of the gestures as well. I wish they would have given more options like OnePlus did with the 6 when they rolled out Pie. You can hide the buttons, have all three, or just use 2. And, with Nova Launcher, you can use gestures to swipe up anywhere on the home screen for the app drawer...it just seemed much more fluid. But, I am anxious to see how things morph when Google starts pushing out updates. And I agree, battery life is ok, but definitely thought it would be better...
Craig Foucht I e never had a android phone I’ve always been apple since I moved from Nokia back in the day. I’ve ordered the pixel 3 and I think that’s a testament to how good it really is as I think it’s the best non apple phone out there 👍🏼
Any chance you had the OG Pixel XL to compare battery to? If so is it at least as good as the Pixel XL was?
Fisher, I was waiting for so long. Several times a day searching your channel... as always, you deliver. Thank you!
Man, how good you are at video editing. So done nicely especially those flicker type of animations.
I'm trying to adjust my recording resolution so I can record longer but My phone does not match what google support shows.... I have no settings icon when I click MORE in my camera app.. I found camera settings through a roundabout patch somehow but can't find it again. When I did, It did NOT show front or back camera options. It only shows "Photo" and "Video" Finally, the only resolution setting I can change is 4k ON or OFF..... Do you have any answers? I bought the phone for its camera and storage solutions but now I can't record more than 30 minutes without it running out of memory even right after I clear the storage. Do you have any answers?
I don't see how the price is justifiable against the Galaxy S9. The Pixel 3 is clearly not aimed at the tech enthusiast so if it aims for the average consumer, why would they pay more for a remarkably similar experience to that of the cheaper and better spec'd Galaxy S9?
Because ofnthe gresey market the s9 is no longer a new phone
Software. That is it. The only reason why I would get a Pixel over the S9 is because of software. It's disappointing.
Every tech enthusiast I know and work with in the IT industry has a pixel lol
@@Matthew_M11 with the new android pie on the S9 it looks almost like stock android!
All those duplicate apps and permissions just make the Samsung experience trash.... sorry, I hated Samsung in comparison to my Pixel.
I have the Pixel 3 XL in white. Coming from OnePlus 5T. My impressions:
Pros:
Great camera
Excellent video stabilization
Free full size photo and video storage in Google photos.
Cons:
The speakers sound bad. Distortion. Vibrates the phone.
The microphone is terrible.
Phone is laggy sometimes. Shouldn't be the case with a $1k phone
Hideous notch
Fingerprint sensor on the back. I think it's an inconvenient location.
No flashlight shortcut
Ridiculously short charger cable.. about 2.5 ft
Lacking physical switch for do not disturb mode
Not sure if I will keep it yet.
Go 6t
@@musicsoundbeats average. Nothing special. It lasts me through the day most of the time except for heavy usage.
No flashlight? What??
I wouldn't, go for the iPhone or the 6T personally their about the only decent phones at this price range ATM
Personally,I love the fingerprint scanner on the back of a phone.
I bought the Pixel3 with the Black Friday Sale...for the most part I am loving it. A few items of concern I keep noticing.
1) The Google Assistant will sometimes not ‘continue’ properly. Meaning that you ask it to text so-and-so the name appears, but, the mike never opens to show it is listening again.
2) Bluetooth devices stop working/connecting to the phone.
(Both of these seem to be remedied with a phone restart)
3) The wider angle front facing camera distorts the image significantly if you are only using your arm/hand. I wonder if it would look better on a selfie stick?
Very thorough video, as usual, Michael. The only thing that I'll say that you missed out on, and someone else commented further down the thread that the microphone during video shooting is horrible. I'm surprised that you didn't mention this in the video, as other of us have mentioned this issue. Other than that, great video as usual.
I'm not a fan of the notch, but I do love some stereo speakers!
The speakers suck ass. Wait for the Galexy s10 to come out.
Roar Man that is noticeably weaker on the notch side. Watch Dave2D pixe 3 video
I bought the Note 9 instead.
@Roar Man, it doesn't even have real stereo speakers, check out Jerry Rigs Everything tear-down on the phone.
@@poboybird7154 same here, I didn't want to get caught up in no mess where one speaker is louder than the other, RAM problems and what not so I got the black note 9 instead and sure am glad I did.
Been coming here for that voice since the pocketnow days
I am still rocking my pixel 3 in 2020. With no issues. December 2020. I don't see a reason to upgrade yet. I finally broke down and pre ordered the Pixel 6 pro October 2021.
I follow at least 10 other tech channels. Even though they all come out with the same reviewed products, I click yours first. Smthn about your reviews are just so damn compelling to click to first
Intro monologue gave me goosebumps. How are you this good?!
Apple did the gestures perfectly kinda disappointed with the pill. I've had that using Nav Gestures which is reporgramable for the gestures you want the pill to do. I really thought when Android P was hyping a fully gesture based exp it would be like Apple's.
Just got one in 2021 for 100$. No scratches and works great w/ android 11. I have had a pay-as-you-go for the last 7 years. I'm sad I had to throw away the flip phone though...But, seems like everything at work we need the internet now.
Amazing review like always Micheal. You're just head and shoulders above the rest on UA-cam. Just love your style. Kindly keep the background music the one used when u reviewed the one plus 5t, it ausum.
I don’t know what it is, but when it comes to phone reviews, there is no one I trust more than Mr. Mobile.
THANK YOU, Mr. Mobile for not going with the XL and becoming mainstream vomit like the other boring tech channels.
I'm a real estate agent and I use the basic apps, fb, UA-cam, Twitter plus a few work apps like my e key to unlock key boxes and some financial management apps plus I use the camera a lot. I keep a phone for 4 years or so and the pixel 3 seemed like a perfect fit. The software should stay updated and The build quality seems great. I love the easy to use interface, I don't find it confusing at all but I don't switch phones every couple of weeks like the phone tech UA-camrs.
I've pre-ordered the Pixel 3 (non-XL) via my carrier here in Singapore. They're throwing in a Pixel Stand for the first 1,000 pre-orders and I'm pretty sure I made it into the list. I was really looking forward to it, and now after watching your video, that excitement has just elevated! Fantastic review Mr Mobile, as always!
Video starts at 00:00 thank me laterz
Thanks you saved my 0 seconds
it takes longer to find this comment than it does to scroll to the start of the video or refresh the page
no u
Thanks bro
Garrettdx1988 you’re welcome bro
Yeah, I would pick this too ...that Notch XL is absolutely Horrific. Let's face it, after someone called it the George Jefferson hairline, I couldn't look at it the same way.
The two things that bother me is that I can't remove the Google bar from the screen.
And the front facing speaker sound beefy for everything except music. The sound is crystal clear but almost no bass. Maybe I haven't found the appropriate setting yet.
Ordered a sleek cover for $3 on Wish.
UX design rant: Gesture navigation is only better if it is more efficient and intuitive. Android 9 nav _seems_ less efficient than the three button setup it advanced from. You make a great point about Moto's gesture nav because it incorporates gestures without compromising efficiency and familiarity. This all has to do with how you navigate through the devices user experience which is a big deal and thus, a big compromise. You interact with this more than anything. Let's hope Google continues to develop this... and at a faster rate since it seems to not have changed much since it's debut last Spring.
This stupid UA-cam update.... it changed again the notifications settings. Again I’m notified about new UA-cam videos... don’t tell sorry for this one BTW
5 months later, os it still worth it? Planning to upgrade from OP3 to either this, the Galaxy s10 e, go with the iPhone Xs 🤔🤔🤔
I think so.
Shit, just get the Asus rog 2 don't even worry just blindly order trust me 😎
I like change if it's for better , the Android pie Ui is not convenient at all. Thanks for pointing it out.
Odd comparing the feel to that of a chalkboard which is usually unpleasant to the touch. The thought gives me chills.
Am I the only one who hate the premiere feature ???
Certainly not
What is premiere feature exactly? Is it any different from just getting a notification?
Well, it gives the content creator a chance to interact with his fans/viewers.
Why though? I don't mind it.
I like chatting with Mike live. So maybe it's just you.
A 5.5" screened phone being called a "one handed" device.
Okay
_2018_ , nice.
dude dont let the number fool you. trust me when i say to you that it is one handed device due to its 18:9 ratio
MrMobile your videos are amazing. I watch them since your pocketnow’s iphone 5c vs xperia z1 compact video. Please review the Apple Watch series 4.
The bad thing about video is the lack of 60 FPS 4K. That’s why I make the compromise with the XS with a solid camera and great video taking.
I prefer the shots without the sound effects.
wallpaper at 1:25 plzzz
The best narration voice and intonation for a review I ever watched on youtube.
Great video, Michael. I really wanted to like the Pixel phones this year, as I was thinking it was just about time to replace my OnePlus 3T. However, as much as I like what they've done on the software side of things, I think they made too many compromises when it comes to hardware, at least for what they're charging. It's a shame, as I like stock Android and all the advantages it brings (and the 2014 Nexus 6 is still my favorite phone of the ones I've owned), but I just can't see paying the retail price for what you're getting on the hardware side of things.
May just hold on to the 3T for a little while longer, as right now there's nothing out that is so compelling to me that I feel like I have to switch.
Stock Android.
it’s a little too stock For me
It's not stock. The Pixel experience adds genuinely useful features
I prefer the lg ui (dont kill me :v)
I swear, Google just seem to be getting such a free pass.. every video is like: This is rubbish, this is rubbish, this is rubbish .. but, stock android. So it's a great phone!
Also its seriously overpriced for what if offers.
Korra honestly ya
I agree. I prefer Samsung Experience.
i honestly love the swipe gestures. using pixel 2xl
Yup its actually great. Not as intuitive and fancy like a full gesture based navigation but I still like the idea of pressing a button to go home instead of swiping up
How can you like it when 1. It still takes up a huge screen real estate(same as buttons did), which basically renders it useless and 2. Why swipe twice for the app drawer? It's counter intuitive. Let's say google wants you to use the recents tab more than the menu, ok i get it. But the shit ram management renders it useless.
@@cosmingosav yes it does take place. that's why OnePlus gestures are so much better
@@sarangkulkarni4963 Totally agreed. > Reccommend also fluid NG
@@cosmingosav I think the thing is, look at the software changes for pie and the gestures. its kind of perfect. I mean, the recent tab had to be changed so you scroll horizontally and they did it perfectly with swiping left and right. Plus 90-95% you just swipe up once for using the 5 most used apps anyway on the bottom .
I think the gestures arent really worse but different. a different approach
I'm still not sure why people have an issue with a notch. It's not like you're getting a smaller screen. You're filling in what would be bezel with screen space.
Michael. You've gotten so good with your videos. I love the editing and how you highlight the details. Keep it up. Greetings from Nigeria.
To me, watching the Abrams movies is the real Kobayashi Maru...
Great review! When I get the money I'll consider getting the Pixel 3 unless my Moto X4 gets the improved assistant with Android 9.
Let me guess. You're the life of the party?... 🤣
Google should "think different". I see what you did there lol
Battery not enough for a day? Try disable Ambient Display always on. It drains battery for about 1-2% per hour depends on ambient light intensity.
If you don't like the pill navigation, search on the internet and roll back to Oreo style navigation and app switcher
I see lots of comments like, Compare it with iPhone XR
Pixel 3 - $799
XR - $749 + $68 + $9 = ₹826 (not including wired headphone cost)
But how we can compare it??
I am really frustrated with the gesture based navigation system everytime i want to back to last app it goes into some other app and its really hard to nail it perfectly
I mostly tend to agree with your reviews but this one not so much.
Even if we use the assumption that the average customer doesn't really care about all those crazy features from companies like Samsung, Pixel 3 even fails in basic tasks.
Pixel 3 has horrible quality control and over the past week it was pretty much constant defects after defects and I'm sure nobody would want to put up with that.
Lack of a headphone jack also adds unnecessarily complications for anyone who just wants to plug their headphones and play instead of having to deal with dongles and other annoying stuff.
Pixel 3 even falls short in video by having a really bad mic and also lacks of 4K 60fps which everyone else has (4K may not be sth most people care about but come on this is supposed to be a camera based phone).
All of this combined with a very high price tag make overall Pixel 3 and 3 XL really bad phones.
On my pixel 3 not pink but the back glass broke and I got a black glass back. I call mine the ice cream sandwich.
Great review. I had the Pixel 3 XL but it kept getting stuck where the screen would not turn on even though you could feel the haptic vibration when you touched the fingerprint sensor. Also, the sound in videos was not good at all. So had to return it. Really wanted to like this phone.
Even the “normal people” will notice the flaws man
I started using the gestures on my Pixel 2 XL. It was annoying at first, but now I've gotten used to them. I've become fond of the little pill down there. I will admit that the back button looks out of place though.
Exactly and tech heads can complain about the lower res screen on the iphone xr but non techie ppl will pick the new iPhone xr over the pixel any day not to mention its actually cheaper than the pixel
but you get a 720p screen most phones give you a 1440p screen and the pixel comes with fastcharger and earbuds, and the pixel uses anroid, has a better camera and comes with unlimited photo and video storage.
yeah so it's not 720p, but regardless of that, most normal people can't notice individual pixels at a density of 326ppi. at least I can't. but an LCD screen is definintely inferior to an OLED in contrast and brightness I think. although the pixel screen is the dimmest of them all.
Normal people use a headphone jack.
Nahhhh.. I'm satisfied with my LG v40
The reason why i see your reviews is that you go minimalistic just right where its needed no more no less and without any biasing.Keep up Mr stark.
My favorite tech reviewer hands down ! - Michael can we have more detailed battery results ? For how many hours the Pixel got you through ? and what was your average SOT through out the days ? On LTE and Wifi comparisons ?
Has the Frosted glass back gotten scratched up like everyone else's has?
Roar Man Not for mine but it doesnt matter to me because i use a case anyway...
who doesent use a case in 2018?
MKBHD is like the only one
Watch erika, you can wash it off.
@@NeuElement lol, you're holding it wrong!
Got my pixel 3 on sale from Verizon for $499!!! Woohoo
is this phone worth it ?
@@targuiismail361 it was for me. I like the size, the camera, and the updates. The battery could last longer... But it does charge really fast so I get by. My work days are long... 13+ hours.
@@williammartz3449 talking about the camera ... is it really good ? what about the video and audio ?
I don't really take much video.
@@williammartz3449 ok is it really the best camera phone?
I just purchased this phone via B&H for 64gb white version for $199.99! Great deal!
I'm surprised you didn't mention the microphone's horrible sound... video recording with this, oh god..
Too many issues with this Pixel...I’m skipping this one
It has no issues stop believing what you hear & watch & go experience it for yourself its a beautiful phone ...
You think other phones dont get issues on their release?
everybody is
SavageArfad Yes it is... it is similar to Galaxy S9 and iPhone XS (of the smaller variants) , in fact has better specs and less expensive. stop being ignorant
@@goosty17 the s9 has a better brighter display and is actually slightly cheaper as is the iphone xr but the screen is lower res. The pixel 3 has alot of problems right now it's a good phone but if you buy one now you might as well be a beta tester. That awesome camera isn't enough to carry the whole phone especially when the s9 and all the new iPhone has awesome cameras just not quite as good photo processing as the pixel
Pixel 3 user : We don't need 2 camera.
Me: WTF is at the front?
They are talking about the back of the phone.
@@evacody1249 iPhone user talk about the front @_@
Edit on this one was really nice Michael. Excellent work.
I hear some people got a second notch to the side of the screen... for symmetry may be? The software, of all things, should've been near perfect. So far it's pretty disappointing considering the price tag on that thing.
It’s because of the 4gb ram, I really really wish it was 8gb or at least 6 for the smaller version. Maybe I’ll pick it up next time.
Jazz Powers memory management is still a problem on what’s supposed to be a slim build of android, it’s not good imo. shows how bloated android is starting to get, numbers aren’t everything
Arguably the Xr is supposed to compete with this phone, not the Xs
Mr. Mobile! Happy you mentioned the special size of this phone. It's the same screen size as an iPhone8+ but it in a smaller body. I can't wait to get mine!
Mr Mobile. How does the Microsoft Lumia 950/XL camera hold up in 2018 against the Pixel 3 ? Those old Lumias had the best night photo capability at the time .
Love ur hair
Pls stop this premiere thing
Tom what’s the difference? Just that the uploader is available for chat when the video first premiers?
It would be cool if some company just made a phone with a camera that has variable aperture. Portraits and macros would look so much better
Another great review. I love my Pixel 3, especially the size. I kept my Pixel 2 XL as my work phone (separate number/carrier) and every day I'm shocked how small the Pixel 3 feels but still has a "big enough" screen. Totally agree on the app switching gesture, I expect we'll get new "options" in a future update. My 3's camera still doesn't have Night Sight.
I'm a simple man, I see a Mr Mobile video I like it...
Didn't even get a notification for this video. Didn't even need one tho, my go to channel for entertainment is this one 👌
I'm waiting for my Google Pixel 3 XL to arrive. We don't have a Google Play Store that handles hardware here yet. Looking forward to it.
I'm also not the biggest fan of the Android Pie gestures so I'm curious about what everyone thinks Google should do?
Right now, all I've got is:
Take the Motorola approach with the pill, with no back button
Use Motorola style gestures - tap for home screen, swipe left to go back, swipe right for recent apps
Except I really like swiping right to switch between recent apps on the Pixel so maybe a downwards swipe to trigger that action?
This guy is the tony stark of phones lol.
I don't think most people will give a damn about the better the photo quality of Pixel compared to other mainstream phones because the difference is not that big.
The $800 price tag is an insult to all other premium phones in the market.
Love your videos as always 👍❤️
If you take avarage smartphone buyer they mostly care if it has an apple on the back ;)
It has the standard "I pay to much for my smartphone"-price and it has a great camera + screen, so it seems fine to me.
@@cooltwittertag the price is ok if you consider today's standard but today's standard is not ok at all
@@Shun434 exactly what I'm saying.
I thought the same before
but then I bought the pixel, and since then, I have to take the pictures on weddings and birthdays (beside a professional photographer) instead of someone with an iPhone..
Edit: added something for better understanding
I'm surprised you didn't bring up the excessive vibration when using the speakerphone or watching youtube, etc. I did buy it though. Coming from the Nexus 5X, it's been great.
Seems that so many people left their comments when this phone first came out. All the issues I read about simply are no where to be found on my 3 XL. The camera is simply the best there is, and as far as battery life.. I've been getting 6 hours screen on time. Anyone still having issues or has the software updates fixed most of these?
