Google Pixel 4 Review: Easier To Buy, Harder To Recommend

The battery alone completely and totally disqualifies this phone.

[@Thomlabe]

Agree. This would maybe pass 2-3 years ago but with the competition offering two days between charges, it's simply not good enough.

[@kztech1319]

Well screens have got bigger (and higher refresh rates) and apps start to suck more power... This is a small battery even by 2016 standards and my standard Galaxy S7 lasts better than this if it has a new battery

[@iceblade997]

Agreed. I don't get why they seem to think having such poor battery life is acceptable. And it's not the first time it's happened either. If you use the phone for a year or two (which shouldn't be unexpected) the battery's only going to be even worse.

[@elimalinsky7069]

I can give 15 reasons why this phone isn't worth your money: 1. Small battery. 2. No notch, but enornouse top and bottom bezels (1st gen minimal-bezel phones like the Galaxy S8 and LG G6 had smaller bezels). 3. No headphone jack. 4. No USB headphones in the box. 5. 18W fast charging isn't that fast anymore. 6. No secure biometrics. 7. 64GB and 128GB options? What is this, 2017?! 8. 6GB RAM is technically enough, but behind the competition. 9. No newer SD 855+ SoC. 10. back panel design copied from Apple. 11. 5.7" in 19:9 ratio is way too small and 6.3" isn't that big either nowadays. 12. Only two color options, and another limited edition one. 13. The radar thingy is a needless gimmick, which bumps the price of the device for no reason. 14. No microSD expansion, which is disappointing given how even the 128GB on-board option isn't enough these days. 15. No reverse wireless charging.

I am more then fine with the forehead of the pixel 4. however some things like 64gb with ufs 2.1... a small battery... it makes it really hard... also not full quality on drive for pictures and only for 3 months... so why is that even a thing? And a wide angle.... If you only have 2 sensors... then a wide angle is a must!

[@Metamine0]

Concept Creator Agreed. If they had upped the storage, upped the battery, upped the Google services, and have a wide angle, I would have called this Googles redemption phone, worthy of being an alternative to the iPhones and Galaxies and Mates of the world. But in its current state? Nah, not at all. Cameras are good, but not blowing away the competition, in fact losing in a lot of ways. Software support is great, but others are better or match it. I just don’t understand why Google can’t make a flagship the right way.

Honestly, even the iPhone 11 is a better choice. And that phone has a low-res display and that’s about it. The Pixel this year is extremely disappointing but it’s not a bad phone. It’s just weird.

[@TheMrMobile]

[COMMENT FROM GOOGLE] Hey folks. Google got back to me with comment concerning some of the shortcomings I noted above. Here's the company's feedback (and my responses, where applicable): [AUTOFOCUS ON SELFIE] "We made a number of changes to the front-facing cameras in Pixel 4 compared to Pixel 3. For example, because of the success of Pixel 3’s Group Selfie Cam, Pixel 4’s single front-facing Camera is a Group Selfie Cam. Compared to Pixel 3’s narrow default Camera, Pixel 4’s Group Selfie Cam has larger pixels with better dynamic range, and it also uses a fixed-focus lens. Fixed-focus lenses actually have some noticeable advantages over variable-focus ones -- for example, they have less natural bokeh, which makes it easier to get sharp-looking backgrounds as well as faces, and they’re always well-focused even in low light." (MrMobile: fair, but I'd have preferred the autofocus and the 97-degree option, which makes for a more versatile vlogging experience) [BATTERY] "We recognize how important battery life is for users, and we work really hard to balance battery size and device dimensions, with new, helpful experiences for users. Pixel 4 is our most ambitious design yet. To maintain a great fit-in-hand, we shrunk the battery slightly from the prior Pixel 3 device. We then leaned more heavily on software to deliver all-day battery, and designed features accordingly." (MrMobile: I think we see how this worked out in the end.) [LACK OF 4K60] "Pixel 4 supports 4k video recording on the rear can at 30 frames per second. We find that the overwhelming majority of users stick with 1080p, so we focus our energy on improving our quality in this mode versus enabling a 4k60fps mode that could use up to half a gigabyte of storage every minute." (MrMobile: the obvious counterpoint is that the phone should have *much* more onboard storage at this price point anyway. Thanks to Google for the comment!

[@QueLoKevinTV]

It's a shame how the Nexus phones were the must have android phones. Ever since they changed it to the Pixel, something happened with Google where really the only positive about the phones is the camera.

[@Ben-ry1py]

The software and updates are great too, but so much compromise on a "flagship" is just bullshit.

Yep. Knew the battery life was going to cripple it. I feel Google knew this and that's why they had a gag order on everyone until now. So many other details that they got wrong, but if the phone can't even make it through a day, there is no need for further discussion.

[@Rickbearcat]

They must have known this while the phone was in development. Why on earth would they put out a phone knowing it would be underpowered against the competition? Had they made it 2mm thicker, they could have had a 20% bigger battery and crushed it.

[@marcochavanne]

@@Rickbearcat yep. Trying to dance on the edge of engineered obsolescence. If it already has a small battery, it will deteriorate over time and by the time the next gen phone is out, the new one will be an easy sell. At least in theory. But they should have learned from the Pixel 3. Battery life was the number one gripe of consumers and reviewers. They are going to destroy their phone brand by trying to be like Apple. You can't charge a premium price for sub-spec phones without delivering some kind of value or useful features. The 4a will probably still sell really well, but the Pixel 4 and 4 XL are DOA.

[@Rickbearcat]

@@marcochavanne ...Yeah, I'm going to have to agree with you on that assessment.

I get what you're saying, BUT first of all only the non XL has a below average battery life, the xl is fairly average. Also I personally couldn't see the average consumer not having the option of using an power outlet for that period of time. Those dudes test the phone because it is brand new, meaning they are playing with features, using stuff other people wouldn't normally do, or at least not over an extended period of time, in the end resulting in a basic battery life. Not defending google here, more battery is always good, but all I'm saying is I personally don't think the battery is that big of a deal in the modern age, the Ram and storage options are more problematic in my opinion.

Why does it seem like Google is content to just half ass its phones and ride the reputation of the Pixel and Pixel XL's cameras from a few years back? - 90 Hz display but small batteries - Fast facial recognition but no fingerprint sensor - More RAM but still only UFS 2.1 storage (and not much of it, sans SD card slot) - Another camera but not a wide-angle lens - Android 10 feels a little less cohesive than previous offerings I'm a Pixel XL user but I really want Google to properly pull out all the stops and show us what they can do, like Samsung did with the Note series a few years ago.

I understand that Google Pixel is 800 USD in US but for a first time that is phone that when you go to UK, Germany or else in the world it is still being sold for 800 USD so the price is persistent. For example last year pixel 3 was 800 USD in USA and almost 1100 USD in UK, do you think that is fair pricing? Now Pixel 4 may be priced higher than iPhone 11 in USA, but that is only there because the iPhone 11 price changes from 750 USD to almost 950 USD and that places the Pixel 4 a lot cheaper than the overall competitors.

Been waiting for a while, but where is the mate 30 pro? Came out a while ago and I've noticed you haven't reviewed it on your channel. I'd like to see your thoughts on it so I just wanted to point that out.

[@ronanh13]

its expensive and not enough memory and a crap battery i think ill pass!!

[@makasete30]

I love the fact that you are a Star Trek fan! TNG clips are great and always raise a laugh from me.

Why people forget that the samsung voice recorder which was released in 2015, has the same features as the google voice recorder. I tested it on my note 10+, it transcribed in real time and I also can search thr words and find where I said them in the audio.

Google to Customer: "You don't need a wide angle camera on your smartphone." Customer to Google: "Wait, what... ?"

[@No-dl6im]

You don't need a headphone jack, or fingerprint scanner. A screen? What are you mad? You don't need that either

[@Andrew-it7fb]

I've never had a need for one and the telephoto seems more useful.

[@ronbailey257]

Always appreciate your insight I had planned to upgrade to the Pixel 4 even before it was announced currently using a Pixel 2. Sadly Google didn't quite live up to expectations here though will still be upgrading hopefully they smooth out some of the issues.

[@haarisrahman8937]

When the previous generation is a better buy than the current generation, you know Google is starting to screw up.

[@ErDilmeet]

Another home run, as usual, Michael! Excellent video and it was eagerly awaited.

[@solomon4332]

Here's my wishlist for pixel 4A: -Take away that glass back -one really great camera will do -increase bettery capacity while keeping that 90Hz display -take away soli if it's going to keep price low, I'll take finger print -if it's not too much trouble, jack

[@BlueBird-wb6kb]

@AustinSBL306 uhhh you can set 90hz panels to 60hz for battery life

[@BlueBird-wb6kb]

Uhhh one Camera only? That's stupid , and the glass was for wireless charging

[@solomon4332]

Mostwanted fam I've never really seen the need for wireless charging. Ginnie that OnePlus fast charging. I have places to be, can't be waiting around for things to charge. 😝 Yes one camera. I'll take that pixel 3camera if that means a lower price.

[@tamirmoharrum8200]

It really amazes me how far is the camera comparison between yours and Supersaf’s?

[@sajan_rana]

It's their 4th phone and still haven't learn anything. Disappointed

[@mydickisincrediblytinyandi7380]

I dunno what you mean, the 2XL and the 3 were amazing. Can say the same for the 2 and the 3XL tho tbh

[@heyheyhey520]

The montage at the end was first class!

[@webbie1891]

Anyone who buy the pixel 4 over the 7T is just plain delusional

[@erikpatterson120]

I have the 7pro and I can't wait to get a different phone... The pop up selfie camera gets annoying after the first month and no wireless charging... I am out one plus

[@Go.el_Hadam]

I agree with you

[@mikldude9376]

i would have bought the S10+ 5G.

[@NilayMaurya-sh6uq]

Man the video quality.....this guy tells story with tech. Amazing

[@c6sm9sgg69]

I will keep my pixel 3 and skip the 4. Maybe I'll buy the pixel 5 next year.
