Google Pixel 3 / 3 XL Review: BETTER than you think

[@teddybrow]

11:52 - "In the case of the smaller Pixel 3, it's a much easier decision. Yup! This is the best small Android phone. Period." That's all I needed to hear. Order placed :)

[@daniell5247]

How's the battery life?

[@daniell5247]

@Arctic Borkism you have the pixel 3 or the 3 XL?

[@daniell5247]

@Arctic Borkism is it the best phone you ever had and would you highly recommend it? Or should I get the 3 XL?

[@harrydrake4173]

The smaller model has mediocre battery life. While the screen has improved over last year, a lot of users have reported a flashing issue. The Pixel 2 XL also had this problem. It must be because both use LG panels.

[@harrydrake4173]

@Arctic Bork Doesn't what? Have mediocre battery life? Sorry sir, but it does. Many reviews state the battery life is average at best.

[@luumoto]

They never talk about unlimited photo and video storage, a huge selling point to other phones without expandable storage. ;-;

[@Vacardi]

Great selling point for me. But I think it's only for a few years.

[@luumoto]

@@Vacardi You get unlimited photo and video storage forever, just not original resolution after 4 years. It'll be in full resolution after that time, all the pictures and videos you take will be automatically sized down to those resolution, but Pixel 3's full resolution picutes should look much better than previous years' models still. Plus, after 4 years, you might want a new phone with the latest technology.

[@tanvirshahriar7705]

@@luumoto not forever. What are you drinking? Unlimited storage only for 2 years,then may b you have to pay to store.

[@luumoto]

@@tanvirshahriar7705 I'm not drinking anything. Read the terms of Google's Pixel 3. It says that you will get unlimited photos in original resolution until 2022. After that, all photos and videos taken on the Pixel 3 will be stored for free in high resolution from then on. You will be able to still access your original resolution photos and videos before 2022, and if you still want your photos and videos to be taken and stored in original resolution, you will need to buy more storage in Google Photos. Please read deeper in the terms on what Google says on the definition of Original Quality and High Quality regarding Pixel phones. It can be found in Google Photos Help.

[@liteoner]

I'm pretty sure Google Photos has unlimited high-res storage with any phone. The perk of having a Pixel is that you get original sized storage. Yes, it's "only" until 2022, but do you really plan to use the same phone for 4 years?

[@lordat]

This is the most positive comments section I've seen on the Pixel 3 / 3 XL topic! Honestly the notch doesn't bother me much, the only time it bothers me is when I watch a vid or movie in full screen and it cuts out a bit of it but I would prefer the XL's notch over shorter battery life with the Pixel 3! I don't like the amount of ram though, why can't they make it 6-8 gigs of ram? I love the camera and google assistant!

[@Evox232]

Watching this on my Pixel 3 XL. I don't care what anyone says. This is a beautiful phone. 😃

[@Wiltoncarter]

[@landonkoehn9423]

I agree with you. I have not found many people who think its a nicr looking phone

[@blooskyy7]

Excellent review, I'll be upgrading to the 3XL from the original Pixel, which was and still is a great phone.

[@stacywatkins2592]

Went to the store they didn't have NOT PINK pixel xl so I had to have it shipped... WILL BE HERE MONDAY TOO EXCITED

[@JudahMantell]

Great review! That large enter key on the Macbook Pro at 7:20 threw me off a bit! Never seen that before on a Macbook pro! :D

[@riteshbangera4146]

One of the best pixel 3 reviews! Great job!

[@GThreeHM]

The only issue i have is deciding on wether or not i want a big phone. I got real tired of having a giant phone and went with the original pixel instead of the XLs.

[@imopn]

Ars Technica said what I feel best: The Google software deserves better hardware. Bottom line is the 3xl has fugly design, soon to be outdated mid tier specs at a too high price. Yes the camera is great but really not much better than 2xl. I would love to see Googles hardware team push the boundaries in same way the software team does. Give us that monster big camera sensor found on the Huawei, more ram and storage like OnePlus, dual sim, look at Samsung for great design not Apple and get rid of the notch

[@papacfoxtrot]

Great review Alex. Beautifully presented.

[@ukguitarnoodle]

wireless charging is Betamax. Fast charge with a cable every time.

[@t5jerry]

no mention if screen is bright enough in daylight ?

Best Pixel 3/3xl review

[@kbeightyseven1783]

I'm gonna be honest I really wanted a pixel 3 but the option seems to be a giant notch on the XL or big bezels on the standard, it's literally outdated design on release

[@arjunchandroth]

Excellent Review.

[@Nishith8]

I'm so early i can't even think of a joke for likes.

[@TravellLove]

You never mentioned small 4 GB Ram. The applications restart if you were to open multiple tabs to go back to the previous application. For such a hefty price, Google could have done 6 GB Ram. Why Google! :(

[@alanznowski2287]

I think because it is not a huge upgrade over the Pixel 2 XL. Also the 4GB of RAM in comparison to other Android flagships means the software updates become irrelevant as the demands exponentially increase on the new versions of Android.

[@iamsh4r106]

Maybe they think the ram is enough to handle everything, i mean after all apple doesn't even disclose the ram

[@alanznowski2287]

@@iamsh4r106 Apple has IOS and build their own chips as well the software. Qualcomm build the Snapdragon not Google. Their is a reason why Samsung, Huawei etc have 6GB plus.

[@liteoner]

I'm sure they put 4 GB of RAM in it because they saw no point in having more. Google designed the hardware and the software, so they were in a better position to judge than us.

[@gcforreal]

@@liteoner except the pixel 2 aggressively closed apps essentially before Android pie, speaking from experience it may do fine with 4gb but that's not future proofing also for the increased price why not add more ram?

[@maxoo._]

@@gcforreal and storage they should have banned the 64gb versions to directly produce 128gb and 256gb at least for the XL...

Got an s9+ instead, I don't want a notch.

[@chrisroofe3840]

Does it come with a music player or do we have to use the google play music?

[@iamsh4r106]

good question, I would also like to know. But im guessing we have to use google play music

[@wyeung0827]

I am skipping this Google this year, the bottom chin and notch are terrible. I will wait for the Huawei mate20 pro which have a much better notch or the galaxy s10 than this ulgy phone.

[@optimusprime3484]

That notch should be getting way more flack. It's pretty effing atrocious.

Turn off the notch and viola not ugly anymore

[@lungho1123]

The smaller pixel 3 is still better lol

[@fightnight14]

one-hand sexiness! Yes, I bought the Pixel 3 for it

[@Vacardi]

Turn off the notch? So now you have this huge useless bezel? Fails advertising, with this screen to bezel ratio bs. Apple started it for the lemmings, and Google thinks their fans as just as stupid.

Best review for pixel 3 phones. Thanks for not including stupid notch jokes like every other reviewer out there! Very professional and informative! Thanks

I'm very excited for my Pixel 3 XL to be here tomorrow 😊

Me too! Delivers tomorrow. Even though FedEx picked up the package yesterday 15miles from my house...

[@anthonycruciani939]

Will be trading in Pixel 2 for Pixel 3 for better battery life...my only gripe with Pixel 2.

[@fightnight14]

I'm doing the same. I'm hoping for a much better battery life otherwise I would go back to a more difficult to navigate, XL version. My hopes are high

really cant wait for this to come the UK

[@rbaker368]

Oscar K Ofori-Brown - Same! Even more excited that Vodafone are now including it in their ridiculously meagre device range - finally!

[@oscarokofori-brown]

nice :)

[@BusterHWJones]

I got mine 3 days ago. I've been a top tier Samsung user for years. I am very impressed with the Pixel 3 XL. The camera is fantastic as well as the on board speakers. All in all, the best phone I've had so far.

[@NeoDaOne]

If the price of this phone was the exact same as last years models, plus at least 6 gigs of RAM I'd consider this a good buy.

[@GOATGamingAndSports]

NeoDaOne cheap ass

[@gcforreal]

I agree it's pretty weak spec wise compared to other phones and they had the nerve to increase the price. Not to mention the xl is ugly asf and looks like a cheap iPhone x. They're betting on the camera to carry this phone but it's gone take more than that when u want damn near 1k with tax, speaking as a p 2 xl owner I don't think it's worth it

[@xenon5493]

getting this phone when it comes out, I'm so ready

[@aurias01]

Notch= Fail

[@simplegoldfish6551]

Having a pixel XL 2 can't justify the upgrade. Pixel 3/xl Slightly better screen Incrementally better processor Slightly better camera Slightly better exclusive wallpapers Slightly better stereo speakers Thank you Google for only giving pixel 3 4gbs ram means older pixels will do well with updates!!

[@mnguyea]

Considering most people will just put a case/or skin on the phone the 'premium' feel is all of about 5 minutes. It is certainly a solid 3 year release for like a 2s but a worthy upgrade if you have the OG Pixel. I not sure for 2XL is it is worth it considering most of the camera features will come to it.

[@douglassprice9170]

Pre-ordered my Pixel 3 XL last night, upgrading from the original Pixel XL.

[@GG-pv9cn]

64 gb storage, 4 gb ram, no headphone jack, weak battery... I've been trying to find enough reason to buy a Pixel since the first one came out, but I just can't justify it. I could potentially forgive a notch (actually idk, did you see the video streaming fullscreen at 3:40? very obstructive), but damn, too many weak points.

[@anthonycruciani939]

Nice vid. His last comment was really the salient point in case you've never had a Pixel. The UX is indeed, imo, the best of any Android device- though maybe not by a country mile. I too have trouble justifying the price increase of this Pixel version but I've used Sammie (Note 5) and couple other Androids and though I loved the Note 5 H/W it was a weak UX imo compared to the Pixel 2 I now use. Yes I gripe about some of the Pixel 2's H/W limitations - though camera is best I've used, but even that is due more to the S/W - and I've never warmed up to huge bezels but the UX is so much better than my Note 5. And I really do like getting s/w updates as quick as possible. If you're gonna spend a lot on an Android phone imo it better come with Android 9 installed. When is the Note 9 gonna get it?

[@MsJenjea]

Lol, not before March

[@liulily28]

I had very bad experience with Pixel 3XL. I just ordered a new unlocked Pixel 3XL 128GB from Google store online on 2/1/2019, received it on 2/11/2019. It's nice look, great camera. I like it a lot. But all of the sudden it powered off on 3/5/2019, and couldn't turn on anymore. I online chatted with google customer service, went through all troubleshooting steps, no working. Then they offered me a replacement phone, but when I clicked the replacement link, I found it's a refurbished device they offered. So I contacted Google again, request a new phone as the replacement Since I paid it for a new phone, and it's only 22 days. But they refused to replace it with a new phone because they only have refurbished device as replacement. And they won't refund me because the refund period is only 15 days. I checked the warranty for defective Pixel 3XL is one year, and the context is "Google will in its sole discretion and to the extent permitted by law repair your Device using new or refurbished parts, replace your Device with a new or refurbished Device functionally at least equivalent to yours, or accept the return of your Device in exchange for a refund of the purchase price you paid for your Device." After 32 emails back and forth, they said Google put "in its sole discretion" on the warranty, so they only offer refurbished device. I can take it, or pay the repair outside the warranty. The case is not resolved yet, I will seek for the legal help. Two things people needs to think before they buy the Pixel 3XL: 1. The problem with the invalid operating system on Pixel 3XL is not rare. After I ran into this problem, I did research. There are quite a lot complaint about this problem. And it's a fundamental problem because the phone is dead. No matter how chic the looking is, how good the photo is taken, phone is used to communication. Think of you're on the way to an appointment, and your phone just power off. And you don't remember the address of the appointment and the number of your contact, that's terrible!!! 2. The way of the customer service explaining the warranty is big big surprise for me too. Refurbished device is usually returned for all kinds of problem. And you paid for a new phone, and only can get a refurbished one as replacement if your new phone had problem. Customer service won't give you any other options.

[@jvrdlc]

why complaining about the Ram? Iphone has the same. it is a matter on how the software is processed

[@mariaelenacabrera9721]

Great review. I want the 3XL in Not Pink. The notch doesn’t bother me at all.

[@TheVertigohtm]

I agree, notch is not a problem at all. All these people complaining about the notch....buy a smaller pixel 3 or buy something else. I pre-ordered mine in white! Oct 22 🥰 Edit: just realized my phone's already been shipped today! Coming tomorrow or Friday! 😎

[@AakashKalaria]

Thank you for your support, Google will probably make much worse phone or launch 2017 phone in 2019 for all "I don't mind notch" people. /s

[@Kyeboards]

Part of me somewhat likes the notch, in all honesty. It's just an accent, though a bold one for sure.

[@amanrajuhd]

Same here

[@andersson9333]

[@fightnight14]

Part of me wanted to get that Pixel 3 XL just to annoy anyonewith it's unconventional look lol

Thanks for the review. I will be ordering the regular pixel 3 and wait for Pixel 4 XL :p

[@gileslucas5023]

In my opinion the pixel 3 xl is possibly the ugliest phone of 2018 but the pixel 3 normal is one of the best looking ones

[@firesoar]

Hideous design, just goes to prove that even if you lead in tech doesn't mean you lead in design. Head designer should be fired for making such glaringly bad decision. See the launch event. Presenter asked at the end: "Don't they look good?" - awkward silence from the audience.

[@LukeVesty]

Alex and Nirave, great job on this video. Beautifully shot and edited. Right up there at "Verge" and "MKBHD" quality. Fantastic.

[@TheSpiritoftheCosmos]

Thanks for the video! I'm going to keep my Pixel XL for now. I tried out the Pixel XL 3 and the screen simply isn't as amazing as it should be. That notch is haunting too and is very unnecessary. Pixel XL 4 here I come.

[@j3ff3ry18]

I love the Pixel 3 XL I upgraded to after 5 years with a Nexus 6p on Fi. That device was very expensive back in 2013 /2014 to buy outright ( $650-$700 ) but it was comparable to other flagship devices from other platform and vendors. However , this Pixel is slightly better in specs ( 845 snapdragon, 1more Gig of ram, the camera of course is way better) but not $400 more better. Yes, I love it but it is at the very maximum level of manufacturer cost inflation to release these at basically $1000 ( $899 plus tax is $989...throw in a Spigen or caselogic plus the rediculous $80 charging stand & u exceed a grand) is highway robbery. So, very good phone that should sell for a maximum of $700-$750 . Google opted to aim high knowing the expectation would not cause an extra $200-$250 per device an impediment to sales.

[@panamabigcat]

I ordered the Pixel 3 Xl in white been using the Original Pixel Xl .............. My Biggest Gripe besides dropping Headphone Jack.............. These All Glass Phones and slippery designs, is this what the public really want or what manufactures think we want?? I would imagine 90 percent or more of phones are covered by 10 dollar cases!!! Mine is!! Which makes a two hundred dollar Android same as a 9oo dollar in looks!! Please make Galaxy Active Type Option Google!!! I am going to try and go caseless on this 900 dollar phone but probably will regret it and put a case on it first week after it slips and slides, I bought the accidental protection but just frustrating.. Remember the Nexus 5x............. great white plastic cover on it, light!! This is what I want a grippy durable plastic phone for 300 dollars less!!!!!!

[@nickgoudeau8407]

I know it's not face ID, but Google does offer a facial recognition option via the smart Lock features. It's called "trusted faces." After diving into the all of the smart Lock features, I've found myself rarely having to unlock my phone with a password when I'm using it or the phone is on me. Googles been using smart Lock features on Android for a while now, I enjoy it and highly recommend. Also, I have the original pixel XL and already pre-ordered the 3 XL. The notch doesn't bother me and I'm excited for the jump! It looks like a super solid device, well done Google. Simple and effective 🙏🏽

[@learntocode9206]

Pixels have just never been worth their price, and this year is no different. You can't make a phone as good as an iPhone just by jacking the price of a Nexus up $400. At least you're getting Samsung displays this year.

[@SeeinHyrule]

The lack of headphone jack is still a huge problem especially with how terrible USB C audio standards have proven to be The scratch prone and fragile glass is a huge problem The notch on the Pixel 3 XL is a 100% guarantee that I will not buy that model and the software and hardware issues that have plagued my Pixel XL first gen really erodes my trust of the brand especially as I watch each year while more and more software features are locked behind new hardware and that fast software update promise seems useless when they strip everything out of the update before sending it out to older phones And then they raised the prices for phones with the same technical specs than last year. Does the phone deserve a $250 base price increase since the original? Absolutely fucking not . For hardware this poorly designed and with this bad of specs (especially after the slowdown people experienced a few months into the 2s life) this phone should cost $100 less than OnePlus devices

Nope they're really not better than I think. I knew before launch they'd flop and all the faults and problems are already surfacing. It's just not well thought out. Mainly the Ram and Storage is too small for what they offer in features and the battery life is absolutely pathetic. 4 and a half hours screen on time compared to 8 on the note 9.

One underestimated thing about having just one camera is the fact that you can actually use lenses on it, the dual setup allows it too, but it's highly hard to get it right all the time. Nice review, great devices, video liked as always mate.

Any major issues... Lol what about the over heating while charging and using. Also way to easily scratching on the back

[@MatthewMoscotto]

The color choices for these phones are absolutely boring. No doubt in my mind that Google will do a lot more with the Pixel 4 next year.

[@JeffyPop247]

its just ALRIGHT to me. i'll keep my P2XL.....there is literally hardly a reason to upgrade in my eyes. 4gb of ram, notch, hideous (albeit subjective) design, just solid battery life....all at a huge price? no thanks.

[@GetLostAF]

I agree. I upgrad every year but I can't convince myself to do so this year. I have the 2xl and if I upgrade, I'll be stock with a smaller phone, since the notch one is not an option lol. Plus, I'll get most of the features through software updates anyways.

[@JeffyPop247]

yep, feel the same way. i would have ignored the notch if they threw in at least 6gb of ram with a 4000mah battery....that would have made it instant purchase. NOT having those just makes the notch stand out even more to me.

[@drago987]

It's really hard to justify upgrading any phone after just one year....And I love that year to year pixel hardware upgrades aren't crippling year to year software updates. When you buy a pixel phone you know that each year the experience is only going to get better with new AI and UI updates. No other Android phone can compete with that.

[@MikeKendall]

totally agree. I bought the OG pixel day 1 and skipped the 2. Now it's on to the 3. I think it's awesome the Pixel phones are so good even after years of being out.

[@blackmanwhitesuit]

Good argument. I knew youtube comments wouldn't always let me down.
