      I wonder why Google just doesn't make a pocket camera. Clearly with each version of Pixel it is all about the camera but less about the phone. Making this phone pointless or just a decent second phone to carry around if you have a business phone. And for the price, no way I would buy this just for a camera.

    Bought the 4xl after it went on sale. I actually like it quite a lot, but I could definitely understand the hate for it when it was in the higher price ranges. Google tried to sell it at a flagship price without the flagship experience. It's a MUCH better fit in the mid-tier price range.
    On a side note, the battery life increases dramatically whenever you turn the motion sense crap off.

    • @KiLLJOY1056
      @KiLLJOY1056 Рік тому +2

      For me, yes it increased, but was still horrible. The only things that killed it for me, was the battery life and 400 nits max screen brightness. It would've been the perfect phone still to this day if those were better. It's still my favorite looking and feeling phone I've ever had. I even tried pixel 6, still bad battery life and weak screen brightness. I think Pixel 5 and 5A was peak Pixel.

      @@TheGamingDead14 totally agree with that they should have added the 3rd ...he could have said they're lacking a lens and more options ...but to start by saying oh what's the most useless lens to put in a phone ? While another phone has the same thing Seems hypocritical

    • @TheGamingDead14
      @TheGamingDead14 4 роки тому +1

      Rohizzy Shizzy Rohizzy Shizzy well yeah that’s true he could have worded it differently, and I maybe wrong but iPhone doesn’t dedicate a whole Lens just for this zoom, it’s built into it on the normal camera and the second lens in used for portrait and the third for ultra wide, while the pixel has a second lens dedicated for it?
      I wanted to try a new phone but this was a HUGE Step backwards
      No unlimited cloud storage for original quality photos yet the max storage is 128gb? A cheap greedy way to get people to pay for cloud storage
      A tremendously small battery for 90hrtz screen (despite that it can switch to 60 or not)
      The forehead as well which is not a huge bother but still again a step backwards.
      No ultra wide Lens but a dedicated zoom lens which could have been done better to fit ultra wide.
      And to even nick pick because I work at Best Buy and I saw the phone in person, the dark mode isn’t even 100% because the messages app was still light but I’m assuming the p3 was like that too.
      Added a radar feature that the Galaxy s4 already had a proved that no one uses it, even on the video now it hardly works and I don’t see a average consumer using that.
      This phone has HUGE potential and they fucked it up.
      I’m a photographer and those points that I pointed out was a huge deal breaker for me.

Not sure why they'd think people would want a thick bezel with a gimmick.

      I REALLY don't like it... the unlock with closed eye is harsh. I've been uneasy about Apples face unlock and am excited to think they may reinstate Touch ID and make them combo to unlock. Think about what can happen to you if you're detained. When the passcode was in your head they'd have to trick you to get it out at least. Now they can just hold you down and have access to your fucking bank account.

But I'm sure the Google branding would make it expensive and they'd make demands that would end up ruining the experience.

      The regular iPhone 11 is a slight upgrade to the iPhone 10 XR. Apple is playing a total BS naming game this round. Of course its cheaper, its a lower model. To get equal usability like the iPhone 10 you go for the iPhone 11 "Pro" edition. Apple seriously needs to stop with all the "Pro" bullshit. The "Pro" moniker is relegated to something that has a professional level of usability. Apple is slapping "Pro" on basic products to make idiots thinking they are getting the best thing ever.

Dunno why ur calling it a slight upgrade, cuz we can say the exact same thing from an XS to an 11 pro, only isheep upgrade every year, I upgraded from an iphone 6 to an X and not upgrading until at least the 12 (if they go notchless, if not, until the 13)

If that was the case they would just never update it. They slowed down the ohone bcoz the a series processor used in iPhones are extremely powerful and consume power but sinxe battery naturally degrades overtime the processor's power consumption would just destroy battery even further so they underclocked the processor. They only did this with battery older than 3years. Once u replace the battery it would work just fine. And yes, its a feature u can turn off in the settings if u want from the very start.

      Yep.. I've got the S10+ .. My plan was to get Note 10 since Feb.. Until they announced the features. And due to the specs from the announcement, I can't justify paying to upgrade for only a better battery and an S-Pen. I've always been a note guy, but depending on the S11 I'll get that, or somehow be patient enough to hold out for the Note 11.

      Mark Young Yea I’m definitely deciding to get the S11+. I definitely liked the note series for the bigger screen, exclusive S-pen and better battery but in all honesty I rarely use the pen. I have used it from time to time for serious note taking and stick figure drawings but that’s as far as I’ll go for it.
