positioning is a little fiddly
64GB Pixel 4 is overpriced

obscuring the front camera
significant scratches on its front-facing glass

some relatively minor issues when recording video with the Pixel
chromatic noise and color shading under low light
moire patterns can be quite visible in heavily-patterned subjects
no microSD card support for storage expansion
not the best phone camera for indoor shots
digital noise creeping in
only guaranteed against water falling gently from near the vertical
the feature is not in the phone at launch at least
usual fragility worries are tempered by half the back
that the customary app drawer is missing
derailed hype train was back on the tracks
offer all of the bells and whistles or a dedicated manual mode
default of HDR+ auto cannot be changed)
handset's lack of wireless charging
hardly earth-shattering
soft backgrounds
missing an ultra-wide lens
it would show us an older picture
the skin would have a greenish tinge at times
killing off some apps running in the background
the notch is intrusive on some apps
Pixel 3 does not have a microSD card slot
The matte is still prone to smudges and does not get cleaned easily
Portrait shots
video
Night Sight shots
is a volume rocker and the power button
takes a little longer
Pixel 3A XL is its camera
modest bezels above and below the screen
lets the display shut off when you re not near to save battery life
lack of an Ultra-wide will cost Google sales
the air gestures are a mess
no ultra-wide camera
Pixel 3 battery life was already poor and only got worse with time
No expandable storage or waterproofing
the rear glass panel protrudes by just over 1mm
Google Assistant has limited uses
lens flare issue in that short video demo
the Nexus line is no more
There s no longer an icon to go into the apps drawer
It s not a widget that can be moved or removed
SD card slots are very rarely used
it isn t waterproof and it is expensive
Pixel XL s battery life
Galaxy S7 Edge does not provide much in the way of hardware innovation
It lacks full manual control
cost here in the Philippines
Google Pixel definitely is no Nexus or Apple

Google Pixel XL has the best camera ever fitted to a phone. The 12.3-megapixel camera takes some of the most detailed shots, and did so in natural light and low light. The front-facing camera is great for selfies too!
