Pixel 3a vs. Pixel 3: 3's the New Lucky Number`
Source: iTech Post Archive.org version
At a $399-base price, the Pixel 3a is a promising alternative to it flagship brother. The overall usage experience remains the same though certain feature have been removed. There's no wireless charging and water resistance, and some security features weren't included to further bring down the price. If you're will to spend an additional $400, then the Pixel 3 is a logical choice. But if you're ok with a toned-down version, without too much of a compromise, the Pixel 3a is a rather good, if not, best choice.

The Pixel 3 is an uncomplicatedly brilliant phone. Tweaks such as the design might seem small but we like the new glass rear cover with its soft matt finish which in turn brings wireless charging. It does everything very well without unnecessary fanfare. Now at a lower price, it's a great bargain if you don't want to spend extra on the Pixel 4's new camera and gestures.

Even into 2019, the Google Pixel 3 has the best smartphone camera you can buy. Don't let its raw specs fool you: its very ordinary sounding 12.2MP rear camera with a single lens and an f/1.8 aperture is enhanced by machine-learning software, Google’s secret sauce to making your photos better. The phone design doesn’t stand out, and the battery life will be underwhelming for power users, but Google does pack in a 5.5-inch screen and dual front-facing speakers into a one-hand-friendly phone. It’s Google’s best phone in a smaller size.

Google's Pixel 3, one year later: Amazing camera, rough start
Source: Engadget Archive.org version
As Google prepares to unveil the Pixel 4, surely the most leaked phone of all time, it's time to reassess its predecessor. The Pixel 3 and 3 XL arrived this time last year, with many of us balancing the list price ($150 more than the Pixel 2) against some promising camera features. For many of us, the latter won out: The Pixel 3 series packed an incredible camera that set the standard for smartphone photography for the ensuing 12 months.

Pixel 3 review: The best Android phone of 2018
Source: Tech Switch Archive.org version
The Pixel 3’s digital camera is skillful at taking portrait images too. They take a couple of seconds to render, however the falloff between the fore- and background appears to be like pure and never overly easy. When I took a photograph of a canine, I seen a patchy-looking stray hair or two, however the impact was minimal. And the Pixel offers you the choice to tweak the blurriness and focus of those portraits after you hearth the shutter, just like the iPhone XS and different Android telephones.

During its annual developers conference this year, Google announced the Pixel 3A and Pixel 3A XL -- two budget phones that kick off the company's new endeavor to make cheaper, more affordable phones. The devices are essentially reworked versions of the Pixel 3 and the larger 3 XL, which originally debuted in October 2018.

In fact, my only gripe with the Pixel 3 involves its price. At $799, it's $150 more expensive at launch than the Pixel 2 was, even though the new phone packs the same 64GB of storage. And so much of what makes this device great pertains to software, not strictly hardware. Slight price hikes are expected, but you get the sneaking suspicion Google jacked up the cost just because Apple proved it could get away with upping prices first.

Google Pixel 3a vs Pixel 3
Source: Tech Advisor Archive.org version
The Pixel 3a is a great new option in Google’s range which lets you have a phone that’s almost as good as the Pixel 3 for considerably less. That phone is available for a lot less than Google’s price if you look elsewhere, though, and it can be well worth splashing out the extra £89/$99 or so if you value waterproofing, wireless charging and better performance. But conversely, if those features will make no difference to you, you’re better off with the Pixel 3a.

I still very much agree with Kris’ sentiment towards the Pixel 3 in his initial review: It’s the iPhone of the Android world. It’s a phone that works well, and in my opinion offers the best Android experience on any phone right now. It’s not flashy, it’s not for everyone, but it’s still damn good.

Google Pixel 3 Camera Review
Source: Ubergizmo English Archive.org version
The Google Pixel 3 definitely earns its place among the high-end mobile cameras. What is most impressive is how Google’s software has improved upon the Pixel 2, while using very similar camera hardware. As such, the Pixel 3 is the best single-lens camera, and possibly the last single-lens system at the high-end.

Google Pixel 3 front camera review
Source: DxOMark Archive.org version
Together with the Samsung Galaxy Note 9, the Google Pixel 3 is currently the joint leader in our new DxOMark Selfie ranking for front cameras. In Photo mode, it’s capable of capturing great images with excellent detail in almost all light conditions, thanks to Google’s clever software design and very good detail/noise trade-off. Exposure is also reliable, and thanks to good hardware design and a PDAF system that offers good depth of field and range of focus, scenes and subjects are sharp across a wide range of shooting distances. Used with a selfie-stick, it keeps the background in focus, which is useful for tourist-style shots with landmarks in the background. The white balance system could be more accurate, but overall, the Pixel 3 is great for front-camera stills.

After letting the Pixel 3 XL’s mature for several months, the majority of its bugs disappeared and it comfortably became my daily driver. But how does it perform when it came to travelling overseas? On top of not getting lost and being foreign to the local language, the last thing you would want to be causing problems is your smartphone. Additionally, as someone who takes a ton of photos when travelling, its camera will also be one of the main aspects that will be discussed.

Google Pixel 3 camera review: The best Pixel yet
Source: DxOMark Archive.org version
With the Pixel 3, Google continues to make impressive gains in image processing using computational imaging. The result is a very versatile camera that people can confidently use in most situations without any manual settings or tweaks. In particular, the Pixel 3’s Zoom and Bokeh (Portrait mode) scores have improved dramatically over the previous generation. Overall, it is tied for the top of our single-camera phones with the Apple iPhone XR and beats it, along with nearly every other phone in our database, for Video. The Pixel 3’s scores are behind those of only a handful of multi-camera flagship phones.

The Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL aren't perfect. But from a features and software standpoint, I do think Google has knocked it out of the park again. This is also a time where something approaching design fatigue is becoming increasingly obvious, and a lot of flagships phones are starting to look uncannily similar to each other, and to their predecessors. Software is one of the areas where companies can continue to throw in fresh ideas and innovate, and Google is doing this wonderfully. The Pixel 3 phones may not be the swankiest kids on the block, but they deliver where it counts. And sometimes, maybe substance matters more than flair (if you don't mind the high cost).

Google Pixel 3: It’s the Little Things

Google Pixel 3 is not for everyone. Usually, when someone asks me which phone they should buy, I simply point them towards the OnePlus 6T. It’s just better value. But these little things are what set the Google Pixel series apart, and for most buyers, they’re not enough to justify the massive price difference especially in countries like India. And I agree. However, if you’re looking for a premium experience, I can assure you the Pixel 3 won’t let you down.

If you’re in the market for a new smartphone, the Google Pixel 3 is a fantastic device, especially when taking into account newer features like Night Sight. If you’re still rocking a Nexus or original Pixel device, the Pixel 3 will be a great upgrade. The Google Pixel 3 is definitely an improvement over the Pixel 2 smartphones. However, most of the features have come, or will be coming, to the Pixel 2 and 2 XL as well so it is a bit harder to justify an update unless you really want or need the latest and greatest Google has to offer.

Pixel 3 review: perfect imperfection
Source: Phandroid Archive.org version
I have to admit that I was pretty excited for the Pixel 3. I’d been using the Pixel 2 as my main device since it came out last year and had high expectations for the Pixel 3. The phone does deliver a better camera experience and slightly better performance thanks to the newer Snapdragon 845, but it honestly doesn’t have the same appeal as last year’s device did. The Pixel 3 is still an incredible smartphone, but it seems to be lacking the “it” factor which makes it a “must buy” smartphone when matching it up to the competition.

Overall, there’s a lot to recommend here. Set in an imperfect Android world where security vulnerabilities, malware and other issues are weekly news events, and where even major manufacturers have flawed update records, the pure Google ‘monthly updates’, only days behind the OS code itself being fixed, take some beating.

The Google Pixel 3 Review: The Ultimate Camera Test
Source: AnandTech Archive.org version
Overall, is the Pixel 3 a worthwhile phone to purchase? The problem here is I think unless you’re very entrenched in Google’s software ecosystem and you make good use of many of Google US-exclusive features on the Pixel, then you might want to consider some other alternatives or just wait out the next generation from the big vendors. Google’s release schedule, which is out of sync with SoC vendors, means that the Pixel is again a half-way point between generations. On top of that, Google is demanding the full price of a new flagship, while lacking some of the features or build quality of said flagships.

It is hard to question Google’s intent behind making the Pixel 3. The vision is to make a flagship Android smartphone that is backed by Google AI, which is fast and slick, and where software takes a center stage. The Pixel 3 comes close but it is still not a perfect device. The camera is its biggest merit, the screen looks good, the front-facing speakers are loud and the battery is good if not the best. Overall, I believe the Pixel 3 is the right phone for geeks and early adopters, but it’s still not ready to be a mass premium seller like the iPhone XS and Galaxy S9.

If you are shopping for a new Android phone, you need to have these two on your shortlist of options.

Pixel 3 Review Roundup: Incredible Camera, So-So Hardware Design
Source: Extreme Tech Archive.org version
One last thing to remember: Verizon is the exclusive carrier of the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL in the US. That’s not a change from previous years, but it’s something to be aware of if you like the device but have a different carrier (meaning: Buy the unlocked version).

Google Pixel 3 review: new AI, refined hardware, still the best camera
Source: Sydney Morning Herald Archive.org version
These are not radically different phones from last year's Pixels, but they are much nicer to use and remain the most pure Android experience you can get. That might seem weird to say when some vendors are equipping their phones with even more stripped back "stock" Android software, like HMD with its Nokia smartphones, but the difference is that Google's additions support and enhance Android Pie while keeping the whole thing minimal and fast, not beating you over the heady with glitzy features. Like last year, this is the best Android experience and camera you can get, but this time it's wrapped up in an overall better machine.

Google Pixel 3: When The Phone’s Software Makes The Phone! [Review]
Source: G Style Magazine Archive.org version
The Google Pixel 3 will run you $799 to start and $899 for the Pixel 3 XL. This will get you the 64GB storage models with another $100 bump up if you want 128GB. In the box besides the phone, Google this year has included a pair of wired USB-C headphones that have the same look as the wireless Pixel Buds. These headphones can be used with Google Assistant, and do live translation like the Pixel Buds. Both models share the roughly the same specs with only the battery being bigger on the Pixel 3 XL and the Pixel 3 speaker sounds being about 10% less than the XL. The Pixel 3 series is not available for pre-order now and both models come in Just Black, Clearly White, and the new Not Pink. We’ll have more about the Pixel 3 as we next talk about the new Google Pixel Stand.

The Pixel 3 might not be the most exciting upgrade in the history of phones, partly due to the excessive leaks perhaps, but it's a great device made even better with refinements at a reasonable price.

The Google Pixel 3 has the best smartphone camera you can buy today. Don’t let the raw specs fool you: its very ordinary sounding single 12.2MP rear camera with an f/1.8 aperture is enhanced by machine-learning software, Google’s secret sauce to making your photos better. The phone design doesn’t stand out and the battery life is underwhelming for power users, but Google does pack in a 5.5-inch screen and dual front-facing speakers into a one-hand-friendly phone. It’s Google’s best phone in a smaller size.

Overall, the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are a marked improvement over last year's models and from what we can see, they don't really have any deal-breaking flaw other than very high price tag. They are well-built, look great, have solid performance, and continue to shoot amazing photographs, thanks to great software. If we were to pick our favourite of the two, we'd recommend getting the Pixel 3 XL over the Pixel 3. The bigger battery and the larger, higher resolution display simply makes for a better experience.

Google Pixel 3 and Google Pixel 3 XL Review: Third time’s a charm [Video]
Source: Toptenreviews Archive.org version
For me, it’s more than worth it. I would pick the Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL not only over most other Android phones, but even over the latest iPhones (even the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max, which are far more expensive). But I’m also highly invested in Google’s ecosystem, I’m a sucker for little details like the soft touch back, and I have a near compulsive need to use Android the way Google intends it.

90% Pixel 3 and 3 XL review: Google’s hardware takes a backseat to software
Source: Engadget Archive.org version
The Pixel 3 XL would be a superb big-screen phone if its notch weren’t so polarizing. If you don’t like the fact that this notch is bigger than rival phones and don’t want to use the software fix to mask it, the Pixel 3 XL isn’t for you. But if you can live with those caveats, the Pixel 3 XL is a long-lasting, powerful flagship with a brilliant display, capable cameras and the best of Google’s software smarts.

What isn’t up for question is how polished the overall experience is for both devices. Last year’s Google phones showed us just what the company could do with software. Now, the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL wrap that in a far more premium-feeling design, and feel all the more cohesive as a result.

Google Pixel 3 And Pixel 3 XL Review: Killer Camera, Android Refined
Source: Hot Hardware Archive.org version
Pricing here is somewhat competitive as well. The Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL start at $799 and $899, respectively, for the 64GB models. That’s not cheap when you consider phones like the One Plus 6 are available for hundreds less, but in the overall landscape (and certainly compared to Apple's iPhone XS), the new Pixels aren’t the most expensive flagships either. Ultimately, Google seems to have balanced things nicely with the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL. If you’re in the market for a new smartphone, do yourself a favor and check them out.

We only have three years of Google-made phones to look at, so it’s too early to tell if the company is going to fall into an Apple-esque pattern of alternating between big, flashy phones one year and “S-year” updates the next. But to me, the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are quite a bit like the S-year iPhones.

Hands-on with the Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL

Google's Pixel 3 smartphones are probably one of the worst kept secrets in the entirety of tech history. The phones leaked in their entirety in weeks leading up to launch, and one retailer in Hong Kong even started selling the Pixel 3 XL ahead of time.

So, what’s all this going to cost you? Well, the Pixel 3 starts at Rs. 71,000 while the Pixel 3 XL starts at Rs. 83,000. This is a Rs. 10,000 bump in price compared to last year’s model, which was to be expected we guess. It’s definitely going to be a challenge for Google this year, considering how competing flagships from Samsung retail for much less these days. The Pixel phones have always been about the camera but when you go this high up the price bracket, people are looking for the best all-round experience, which Google needs to nail. From what we’ve seen, the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL seem like a definite step-up from their predecessors in terms of design and the way they feel. The question is, are they worth it? We’ll be testing them over the next couple of days so stay tuned for the full review coming soon.

Google Pixel 3 cameras: Here’s what they can do
Source: Android Authority Archive.org version
Much of the interest in the new Google Pixel 3 and Google Pixel 3 XL (I’ll just use ‘Pixel 3’ through the article to keep it simple) has to do with the improved camera setup, mostly because the Pixel 2’s camera was so great. Many consider it to be the best in the business, and some would even say it’s even better than the recently launched iPhone XS (please argue in comments appropriately).

Comment

Model: The Google Pixel 3 is one of the best Android phones in the current market. With a great camera, powerful hardware specifications, latest Android version and user-friendly design, the Google Pixel 3 is capable of checking all user’s requirements easily. The Google Pixel 3 is available in 3 colors, namely Just Black, Very White and Not Pink. The design of the Google Pixel 3 definitely feels a lot more premium than the previous Pixels. It is capable of competing with the high-end smartphones such as the iPhone XS. The glass back of the Google Pixel 3 has a smooth finish. It allows Google to introduce wireless Qi charging and helps retain the IP68 water-resistance rating. To lessen the fingerprint problem, the top of the glass panel is shiny, but the bottom of the glass panel is matte. However, a glass panel is less resistant to drops. Compared with the Pixel 2, the RAM is still 4 GB and the storage amount remained at 64 GB, but the Snapdragon 835 SoC from the Pixel 2 has been replaced by the newer Snapdragon 845 Soc. However, the display is smaller than the Pixel 2's at a 5.5-inch OLED display. The advantage of the OLED screen is that it allows for pixels to be individually lit, which allows the screen to display perfect black. Despite being smaller, it’s an 18:9 panel with a thinner border, which looks very modern and up to trend. The smaller screen also makes it comfortable to use in one hand.

For camera, the main camera boasts a single lens 12.2 MP with an f/1.8 aperture. The front-facing camera consists of two 8 MP lenses, one with an f/1.8 aperture and a wide-angle companion with an f/2.2 aperture. Pixel 3’s image quality has to be reviewed not just looking at the hardware, as Google employs machine learning and A.I. to enhance photography in the Pixel 3. Besides that, Google has also implemented an algorithm to remove the distortion caused by the wider lens. Extra photography features include Top Shot, Super Res Zoom, and Night Sight. The only weakness of the Google Pixel 3 is the barely adequate 2,900 mAh battery while most smartphones come with more than 3,000 mAh batteries these days. However, the smaller screen size and the optimized system could help the smartphone to be more battery saving. As a conclusion, the Google Pixel 3 is a good looking and high-performance smartphone. While it does not come without raising the price tag, it is definitely suitable for users who take a lot of photos and are also looking forward to a premium high-end smartphone which can last a couple of years.
