[@_Mourning_]

Look I jumped until the iPhone boat when they launched. The last iPhone I used was the 6S+. I switched to the Samsung GS8+ and enjoyed it thoroughly. I went back to iPhone with the X and returned it within 3 days for the GS9+; I just can't use Apple products anymore. They're nice and I enjoyed my time with them but the open customization with Android nabbed my heart.

[@magic_fruit_bat5003]

Which Pixel 3 model did you go with?

[@TheHanStudios]

Pixel 3 XL, Just Black, 128gb, Unlocked. I wanted the XL because I finally wanted to go for a bigger phone for once, and I also wanted that extra battery life. I'm currently using a Samsung Galaxy S8 I've had since it launched last March and the battery life for it is quite mediocre nowadays. I can't wait to have not only a phone with a bigger battery, but a Google phone that is way more optimized for longer battery life and longevity.

Really? My wife has Nexus 6 and I Pixel 3 XL. Well, we both hates these scrap. Now I know for sure, that all Google products are scrap. I cannot express how stupidly Pixel phone and Buds works. All I want now its just to come back to Apple and forget about Google gadgets as a nightmare. They should go to hell for that shitty products.

[@BasD]

Really useful video, my Pixel 3 arrived 2 days ago, and it's such a great upgrade from my previous phone (Droid Turbo 2). Little smaller than I expected but felt the XL would be too unwieldy. This introduction to the main features was perfect.

I’ve been with Apple for 7 years. I am finally almost convinced to switch. One question. Is it worth leaving iMessage?

[@paigemariahlynnmiddlebrook6949]

This is where Android fails. I'm waiting on my pixel to see the messaging but it's probably not as good as imessage. Google has multiple messaging apps competing against each other. They need one team working on a single messaging app that is great

[@jeremycruzgarza]

Paige Mariah Lynn Middlebrooks yup. That’s probably what’s gonna keep me with apple. Might go with the cheaper iPhone xr

[@ninosalonen]

I switched to OnePlus 6 after using iphones for 8 years. Things I miss: smooth scrolling and zooming, apple pay that worked a little better. Thats it. I use whatsapp instead of imessage and there are so many apps that can replace facetime. So yeah, switch. Also, snapchat is poorly optimized for android but it should change soon. Thats just snapchats fault.

[@jonkestler626]

Get the app "Pulse" . If you pay 10 dollars you can access your messages and reply on any device. That was the big thing I missed from iMessage, not being able to text my computer . But this app is a very nice and elegant replacement. Very customizable as well.

[@osamashaher3772]

How is it so far?

[@HopperDragon]

Just figured out what bugs me a bit about the android 9 gestures. The navigation bar takes up the exact same amount of space, so it just seems like alternatives to the existing buttons for no reason. Like gestures aren't inherently better than tapping a button. I hate iPhones, but compared to android 9, the gestures definitely feel a lot better (only the gestures.) and they actually removed what was previously bezel/"nav bar"/home button. If the pill took up less vertical space it would sit better with me, because there would actually seem to be a purpose for it instead of just replacing the exact functions of the nav bar with gestures because apple did it.

[@noobshere6702]

They removed multitasking button, I'm pretty upset.

[@HeyItsBoofy]

yup, if they also followed Apple's way of using a small amount of screen real estate at the very bottom, it'd be a better use case... but then they'd definitely have to think up a better solution for the back button

[@HopperDragon]

No, just remapped it to a swipe up.

[@dustinmorris13]

I agree with ya! If they're taking away all the buttons, the pill should have taken up less space. In this case they should have just left all the buttons.

[@marcot1546]

This is exactly what ive been thinking since google announced it. the whole purpose of gestures is to get more screen real estate, and with this thing youliterally get none. It looks like they wanted to get a pill in there just cause its the cool thing to do; the only android brand that really understood what gestures are about is huawei with their mate 20 gestures. Zero on screen clutter, all functionalities and FINALLY the “slide from the sides to go back” that apple has had for ages. Hope they will come to my honor 10 too in november

As a android person, NO ONE uses duo/allo and I rather not ask people to download it just for me. The next time I get a phone it'll most likely be an iPhone for iMessage, support, and ease.

[@Red_Snappa]

@@eviltoms Duo was just an option....WhatsApp is the ubiquitous messaging app today, NOT I message. Just had a friend asking if I'd received her message she'd sent....NOPE! Turned out shed sent it as a 'standard' message. When we looked into it, she used her iPhone 'Message' app (with a video) that had automatically converted it to an i-message...

Samsung Galaxy phones have had these features for a long time even mid or low end Samsung phones have these features and Google the android maker is just catching up. No wonder so less people buys the pixel branded phones. Samsung Galaxy phones even allows one to adjust just the media volume by default or the call volume by default. Google Pixel isn't bad but it just doesn't justify its price it has far less features than Samsung Oneplus Sony or the competition but still costs more than them.

Couldn't get it to bluetooth sync with my 4Runner and KZbin would sometimes Lock up while I was using it for my background music/lyrics while singing with my sweetheart at gigs. She would be standing next to me using her Sam 7 and it would NEVER lockup for her. So switched today to this Pixel 3a and already love it more than any other phone I've owned. Your explanations here and good voice go a long way to make me know how to use this one. Thank you so much! Now to another of your Pixel 3 videos!

I've been a real slut for these videos this past week.

My Not pink 3XL was delivered today!

[@nataliasantana6462]

Omar Lynn is it nice looking? I'm still undecided if I should get that one or clearly white

[@omarlynn2992]

@@nataliasantana6462 I think so. It looks like an off white mixed with light pink. I'm horrible at giving descriptions. I like it though. I was going to go with the white, but I think that it will stay white for too long.

Thank you!

Mine should arrive Tuesday 😆

[@omarlynn2992]

@@a.clarke9291 Congrats. I bet you can't wait. I couldn't. Take the time to form your own opinions, never mind what the "reviewers" are saying. I really like the phone!

Oh nice, u filmed this on my birthday! October 13th on the phone screen that’s so cool

[@kowabundant]

Great video, I just switched from an iPhone and these tips really helped me. These tips work on Pixel 3a XL as well 😀

[@theonlyansa]

Why not just get the 3xl and hide the notch in developer settings. Doing that makes it look like a bigger pixel 3 from what I've seen.

[@theonlyansa]

@John Go tru I was responding more to his comment in the video about not wanting to get the pixel 3 xl due to the notch. When he could've gotten the pixel 3 xl and just his the notch through developer options that way.

[@TravellLove]

I think hiding notch makes phones forehead much larger which is not pleasant either.

[@theonlyansa]

I mean from what I've seen it looks like an exact replica of the pixel 2xl but to each their own I guess lol

[@MyurrDurr]

judging by videos I think it makes the forehead and chin basically the same size and also the curved edges are the same radius! I have seen many phones where if you disable the notch in settings the rounded edges at the top are a smaler radius than the edges at the bottom and that is so frustrating

[@chanlersimpson2259]

I heard you can actually hide the notch in settings

[@andreamelis7813]

Chanler Simpson yes, you can.

[@JGonzZ.]

But there's no notch on the normal Pixel 3 tho

Nice video bro!! By the way os that sure that pixel 3 is have a same spec front camera and main camera same like xl does?

[@JannineHadid]

My mom and I are switching from iphones to pixels this year, after poor experiences with the 6s and 7. I've had a Galaxy before, but she's never owned a droid. Pie is seeming remarkably similar to the latest ios's, but I'll be sending her this the day we get the new phones, and I promise you, she's going to love it. My sisters and I have made a /game/ of messing with her phone settings and seeing how long it takes her to figure them out- sometimes weeks! and thats on os's she's used to. This video is going to change the game for her ability to smoothly transition and comfortably use her new phone. Thank you so much!

[@berniekovacs2463]

Why does everyone throw shade at the pixel 3 and 3xl. I me and I understand the 3XL with the notch ,because I agree it's absolutely terrible but the phone is not as laggy and buggy as people say it is. Also with Android q beta 3 and the actual release soon, this phone is getting good and every other flagship android.I have the pixel 3 and I would say it's a very smooth phone. I don't have any problems with it but I took a risk and downloaded Android q beta 3.

[@lvillarreal8865]

I got the Oneplust 5T then Google pixel 2xl then Asus ROG phone then switched back to Oneplust 6t And now I bought a Google pixel 3. Can't let go of the camera and smoothness. Sure it gets buggy but Google updates frequently. Not looking forward to Pixel 4. I hate bottom speakers. Always been a fan of the front facing one.

[@surilopez9120]

I just got the 3axl and didn't come with earbuds :/

[@abidrgp3837]

Oof

[@terrenceho7874]

Good video, love ur voice so much. By the way, may I know the screen will feel like Abit small for u ? Consider to buy a pixel 3, between 3 & 3 xl...any advise. thanks

[@navcop33]

Love your videos! Very helpful.....

[@ifat7283]

Any Notification LED there? like previous 2 models.

[@DinosaurThug]

nah

[@liteoner]

no, confirmed by Google

[@MCOGroupNews]

@@liteoner That's sorely dissapointing... -sigh- I want the galaxy body with galaxy specs but Google camera and experience...is that too much to ask?

[@hurvee12]

^get a samsung phone and install a custom rom. Using an s6 edge with stock android 8.1

[@MCOGroupNews]

@@hurvee12 I've got an S7, should look into doing that, although I finally decided to make some room for the 8.0 update and my phone feels kind of new/snappier than before- definitely way more optimized than the previous version I was running. Doing that doesn't solve the issue of getting the pixel camera in my phone tho 😂
