Google Pixel C

Stylish and versatile; the Google Pixel C is a well-crafted tablet with powerful hardware to aid with productivity. Design is kept simple with a minimalist theme and solid anodized aluminium chassis that oozes class when held. The Google Pixel C comes with a full-sized keyboard that connects using magnets and is charged wirelessly when the tablet is shut. Display on the tablet is a 10.2 inch LTPS LCD panel with 308 PPI and a brightness of 500 cd/m². Users will definitely enjoy the clarity and rich colors, which this display even provides in bright surroundings. The Android 6.0 Marshmallow device is equipped with an NVIDIA Tegra XI 64-bit processor, 3 GB of LPDDR4 RAM, a 256-core Maxwell GPU and either 32 or 64 GB of internal storage depending on the selected variant. Audio quality is decent with the stereo speaker setup and the Google Pixel C is equipped with a full array of sensors ranging from ambient light to proximity. Weighing just 0.517 kg minus the keyboard, the tablet will be a joy to carry around even despite the large screen size. Other features on the Google Pixel C are Bluetooth 4.1+HS, dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity, a 8 mega-pixel rear camera, a 2 mega-pixel front camera and the convenient USB Type-C port. Battery on the Google Pixel C is rated at 34.2 Wh.

The Google Pixel C has it all: a fantastic display, heaps of power, a premium design and a lofty price tag. The only problem is, it's up against the excellent iPad Pro and it ain't exactly cheap.

Sci-fi? Space? Sedimentary rocks? If you’re Google, it’s the sea: say hello to Marlin and Sailfish. Set to be the next Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 handsets, these fishily named projects look the likely successors to Huawei and LG’s 2015 efforts on the Android powerhouse brand – and there’s already plenty to be excited about. Perhaps appropriately for two aquatically labelled smartphones, there have been leaks aplenty, offering up bucket loads of fresh bait – from shell suspicions to hardware rumours – to whet your appetite for the catch. So, tuna in: we’ve got all the details.

The Google Pixel C is a mighty fine tablet, and one that absolutely nails the detachable hybrid design. This is a glorious piece of hardware that’s perfectly fit for purpose. It’s fast, the screen is exceptional, and the all-round design is one that, some day I’m sure, will be hailed as one of the all-time classics, alongside such products as the original iPhone, iMac and iPod. The fact that Google has pitched such a wonderful thing at the same level as the distinctly underwhelming Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet – which was a great tablet, but came bundled with a terrible keyboard – is a bonus. Fans of all things shiny, rejoice. Your addiction to desirable tech won’t cost you nearly £1,000 as it did with the iPad Pro, your wallet will only be lightened by £518.

The Google Pixel C is a fine tablet that nails the detachable hybrid design. It’s fast and the screen is exceptional. What holds it back isn’t value for money, but Android itself. Google’s OS works beautifully on phones but remains an awkward partner for tablets. Until it resolves that, tablets such as the Pixel C – fabulous though the hardware may be – will remain luxuries rather than must-haves.

Better, But Not There Yet

After taking in this new information, I suppose that the final question is whether or not my original verdict about the Pixel C still stands. That's a complicated question to answer, as the update from Google has addressed many, but not all of the issues I experienced with the original. I suppose it's worth doing a recap of what has and hasn't changed before deciding if this changes things for the Pixel C.

Ultimately, the Pixel C ends up being a strange mix of things that may have worked together in a much more cohesive manner had it shipped with Chrome OS like it was clearly intended to. Unfortunately, Android just doesn’t provide an acceptable tablet experience, and Google’s own applications are some of the biggest offenders.

90% The best Android tablet yet, but not the best for productivity
Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
As a standalone tablet, the Pixel C is superb. It’s better than the HTC-made Nexus 9 which was great but not exceptional. Which the 'C' most certainly is. Storage is a bit limited, but if you can live with 32GB it’s good value at £399. Paying an extra £119 for the keyboard is something we can’t see many buyers doing. If typing is a priority, you’d be better off spending your £518 on a decent ultraportable laptop as Android Marshmallow – good as it is – isn’t nearly as versatile as Windows. And while the keyboard is well designed, you’ll still prefer a full-size laptop keyboard. If you need to run Windows apps, the consider the Surface 3 which is slightly cheaper - even with the optional keyboard - but remember that there are even cheaper options such as the Asus Transformer T100HA.

Google Pixel C Review

There's a lot to like about the Pixel C. The hardware is beautifully designed and finished, the magnetic system is clever, and the performance is whippet-fast. It feels like it's ready and waiting for a version of Android that is similarly practical, and there the whole experience starts to slide. The potential is there, certainly. I'd just recommend waiting until the Pixel C lives up to it in practice before you open your wallet.

Beyond competing with other Android tablets, the Pixel C underscores that the Android tablet ecosystem still isn't competitive enough with iOS or Windows. For productivity, Android is far behind Windows 10 tablets, with its no-compromise Office applications, wide range of different keyboard form factors, and as many open windows as you want. For education and fun, the range of properly formatted, good-looking apps and games on iOS still far outstrips the list of Android apps that properly make use of large tablet real estate. Which is all to say: Even if Google fixes the software issues, the Pixel C still might not be the right tablet for you.

In our view, the Pixel C’s lukewarm reception has been due largely to Google’s failure to set proper expectations for this product. With its keyboard attached and Google Docs loaded up on the screen, the Pixel C looks like an iPad Pro/Surface Pro competitor – but it’s not. It lacks the multiscreen capabilities of the former and the full-PC operating system of the latter, which becomes apparent the moment you power it on.

It's about time we got an Android tablet that properly challenges the iPad Air 2. The Galaxy Tab S2 and Xperia Z4 Tablet came close, but the Pixel C goes all the way. From its premium design, to its wonderful display and punchy processor, the Pixel C goes blow for blow with Apple's top tablet. It's not perfect - with a weighty heft, a battery which isn't as strong as we hoped, and the lack of software to really take advantage of the keyboard dock - but no device is. The Pixel C is, without doubt, the best Android tablet on the market and if you were considering buying a full size iPad, Google's just thrown a spanner in the works.

Android still has a shortcoming when it comes to tablet-optimised apps; add to that the general bulk of the Pixel C it's not quite as pick-up-and-play-friendly as the iPad range. It also doesn't have the breath of functionality to trouble the iPad Pro or Surface Pro 4, even with its keyboard dock, but the Pixel C is comfortably cheaper than both.

80% Google Pixel C review: A killer Android tablet with an unfullfilled productivity mission
Source: PC World English Archive.org version
The Pixel C, Google’s new ultra-premium Android tablet, has unfinished business. Yes, it’s chiseled from a sumptuous hunk of anodized aluminum and boasts a gorgeous, super-high-res display. And, yes, it’s packed with top-shelf silicon that delivers palpable performance dividends. It also runs a pure, unencumbered build of Android Marshmallow. That makes it bloatware-free, and the recipient of Google’s most timely OS and security updates.

80% Google Pixel C review: Pixel perfect?
Source: Pocket Lint English Archive.org version
Overall the Google Pixel C is a wonderful tablet. There's quality and power in abundance, setting it above the experience of Google's previous Android tablet, the Nexus 9. Some software tweaks and it would be just about as pixel perfect as a performance tablet could be.

100% Google Pixel C
Source: It Pro English Archive.org version
The Google Pixel C would be an excellent tablet just by itself, but add in the elegantly designed keyboard dock and it’s almost in a class of its own. The only things holding it back is Android’s immaturity as a tablet OS and the persistently poor state of Android tablet apps which makes the Pixel C less useful than it otherwise could be. Even so, the Pixel C is still the best Android tablet available.

100% Google Pixel C review
Source: Stuff TV English Archive.org version
At a smidgen over £500 with keyboard, the Pixel C is at least £300 cheaper than a keyboard-equiped iPad Pro or Surface Pro 4. Only the Surface 3 can compete on price. That said, the machines that may have more to learn from this tasty little workhorse aren't necessarily other convertibles, but Chromebooks. They now outsell Windows laptops, but Chromebooks are still growing in popularity because they're simple and affordable. If the Pixel C is successful, your next laptop might be an Android machine - and based on our experience of it, that would be no bad thing.

80% Google Pixel C review
Source: Expert Reviews English Archive.org version
The Pixel C is a powerful, long-lasting and beautifully built tablet, with a keyboard dock to match. For occasional typing, single task working and multimedia playback, it's an excellent device. At £399 (plus £119 for the keyboard) it’s only slightly more expensive than the Xperia Z4 Tablet, but is a much nicer device overall. If you're looking for something less expensive, but still very capable, then the Nexus 9 is still available at just £199. Whether Android is ready for laptop use is questionable, however, and the lack of multitasking definitely hurts it in comparison to Apple’s iPad Pro. Stock Android and stellar performance will be enough for many, and the possibility of official multi-window support in a later update might make this a more functional productivity device further down the line, but right now it's an expensive, albeit stunning, device that's no better value than the competition.

Pixel C deep-dive review: A terrific tablet that tries to be more
Source: Computerworld.com English Archive.org version
When we talk about whether the Pixel C is worth buying, we really have to talk about it as two separate products. As a high-end Android tablet, the Pixel C has what's easily the best overall user experience you'll find on such a device today. From the premium materials and striking design to the outstanding display and top-notch software -- not to mention the timely ongoing OS and security upgrades -- no other option even comes close. At $499 for 32GB or $599 for 64GB, it isn't cheap -- but it also isn't that unreasonable compared to other tablets in its class. And you really are getting an awful lot of bang for your buck, provided a top-of-the-line tablet is what you're after.

80% Google Pixel C review: A killer Android tablet with an unfullfilled productivity mission
Source: Greenbot English Archive.org version
The Pixel C, Google’s new ultra-premium Android tablet, has unfinished business. Yes, it’s chiseled from a sumptuous hunk of anodized aluminum and boasts a gorgeous, super-high-res display. And, yes, it’s packed with top-shelf silicon that delivers palpable performance dividends. It also runs a pure, unencumbered build of Android Marshmallow. That makes it bloatware-free, and the recipient of Google’s most timely OS and security updates. But Google is positioning the Pixel C as a halo device for Android’s productivity features—and in this mission, this productivity mission, the tablet falls short.

The Google Pixel C is a mighty fine tablet, and one that absolutely nails the detachable hybrid design. This is a glorious piece of hardware that’s perfectly fit for purpose.

Google Pixel Review: Life after Nexus
Source: PC Perspective English Archive.org version
The Pixel is in many ways a welcome successor to the Nexus line, improving some of the shortcomings of those previous phones - though it is not perfect. The camera was often a sticking point with Nexus phones over the years (though the 6/6p had excellent sensors), and in this department the Pixel has been crowned the king of smartphone cameras since its release. The SoC, rather than being outdated at launch was the (then) top-of-the-line Snapdragon 821, which was this year replaced by the Snapdragon 835 found in the new Samsung Galaxy S8 handset (review upcoming!). The build quality is also quite high with the Pixel, about on par with the Nexus 6p from Huawei (or perhaps even higher, if you like iPhone-clone industrial design). It offers great performance, that glorious stock Android experience, great battery life, and feels like the premium device that the price tag indicates. But those are the positives.

The Pixel isn't a perfect device, but it captured me from the moment I took it out of the box. It's compact and has a great in-hand feel that makes me wonder why I didn't buy it over the Pixel XL in the first place. The new Pixel Launcher brings some functionality (though it's iPhone-inspired) to the Android experience that the Google Now Launcher found on the old Nexus-branded devices never had. It also adds greater notification control and what I call "smart notifications" for Android.

The Pixel has plenty going for it: it’s small, well built, speedy and has excellent cameras. It also supports Google’s Daydream VR headset and runs the plain version of Android 7 – complete with Google Assistant - and will get timely updates. But it isn’t waterproof, doesn’t have a microSD slot or stereo speakers and we’d have preferred a quad-HD screen for VR use at this price. If those downsides don’t bother you, and the OnePlus 3T is too large, then the Pixel is a fine choice and a great Android phone.

We think very highly of the Pixel XL, and it sounds like the Pixel is just as solid a choice if you prefer a 5-inch phone. The Pixel's camera is considered one of the most fantastic parts of the experience, with basic Google apps and services, along with a pure Android experience, thrown in. Be prepared to accept a lower resolution and less battery life if you opt for Google's less expensive Pixel, though.

There were a few things we wish Google had addressed on this phone. One is the massive chin up front. That extra space could have been optimized for something useful. The second is the meager battery (2,770mAh) and 3rd is the absence of the microSD card slot but that’s already expected of Google. And of course, there’s the expensive price tag previously unheard of in many Google-inspired smartphones.

These phones are truly a great combination of hardware and software and as an Android fanboy myself, I love the Pixel and Pixel XL.

Deep dive: A closer look at the Google Pixel's camera
Source: Android Police English Archive.org version
I still would have liked OIS and features like face-detection focus (for instance for blind selfies or difficult-angle shots with the higher-quality rear shooter), but it’s nonetheless a great camera app that integrates well with the hardware, especially for the fast processing of the fancier features. Just the speed gains themselves over the N6P would have been worth it for initial release, though eventually it would be nice to regain at least the features the Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 (time lapse) cameras had when they came out. Also, we are still waiting for some hinted-at pretty great features; hopefully they’ve not been canceled, but that was a long time ago.

Google Pixel Review: Supremely Made, By Google
Source: Paste English Archive.org version
The Google Pixel is a remarkable first effort from Mountain View and although the company had been in the industry with its Nexus line for years, the fact that its first vertically integrated effort does so many things right, or perhaps more impressively, so few things wrong is a great achievement. If you love Android, there is no better phone to buy thanks to the top-notch software and performance of the handset and a camera that takes a backseat to no other on the market.

The Google Pixel launched to some really raving reviews and overall has been positively acclaimed. What counts most is the desirability of the phone: how much do people really want it? Perhaps it might be too early to tell, but the Google Pixel is a great stepping stone for Google's Pixel brand.

Overall, the Google Pixel is one of a handful of reasonably sized Android phones that, because of its hardware, can compete with flagship phablets. That makes sense, because at $649-$749, it's priced right in line with those high-end models. If software is of paramount importance to you, no other Android phone on the market can match the Pixel. If you're more interested in hardware, the Samsung Galaxy S7 is the phone to get.

This is the sixty thousand rupee question, and the short answer is that the Pixel is definitely the best Android has to offer. It shows what a Google phone can be, but I don't see myself spending 50K+ on this device. Why? Because the OnePlus 3 is almost as good, and given it's price, it's well worth the camera. Sure, the Pixel has a droolworthy camera, but that's the only area where it's substantially ahead of the OnePlus 3, and the latter's pricing makes up for it. In fact, this is exactly what the Nexus 5 had going for it. It was priced well, and though it lacked a flagship-class camera, everything else made up for it.

The Pixel is Google’s best effort yet at creating their own version of the iPhone. It’s something that simply wasn’t possible under the old Nexus brand. It’s not so much what the Pixel offers, so much as what it represents. Google is no longer watching Android from the sidelines as it’s bastardized by their hardware partners and skinned to look like anything but the OS they built. They know that the only way to truly have full control over the OS, is by having equal amount of control over that hardware it’s running on.

But if you were following along with the themes I presented above, I feel I more than adequately explained the reasons for the Pixel's $649 starting price. This is a well-made phone that performs its function as a mobile computer better than any Android phone currently available, and potentially better than any phone, period. Some of that is thanks to its portability, which despite the slight battery shortcomings is, to me, a huge boost to one-hand friendliness and therefore productivity, but much of it is due to a no-BS design that just makes it easier to use the phone.

I feel that after the pricing was leaked, many people expected that Google would pull a rabbit out of its hat with the Pixel. There had to be something more. The truth is, it's just a very good phone, and one that Google is now making the focus of its efforts. It is the first phone with a Google software skin, and the first phone developed by Google independent of the actual Android team (well, as independent as any manufacturer). That's quite interesting: Google has made clear that the Pixel team and the Android team have a "firewall." But that doesn't stop the Pixel team from working with all the various other groups and products inside Google, and that's how we've ended up with the first, and for now only, phone with Google Assistant.

Google Pixel XL 2016

With the Nexus lineup seemingly discontinued, Google has unveiled its own flagship devices – the Google Pixel, and its larger sibling – the Google Pixel XL. They are nearly identical, except the Pixel XL has a bigger and sharper display, and a larger battery. Picking up the Pixel XL, one would immediately notice the device is encased seamlessly within a sturdy glass-aluminium body with smooth surfaces and easy-to-grip curved edges. The Pixel XL has a larger bezel in comparison to its newly released competitors, such as the Samsung S7 edge and the iPhone 7 Plus. This design seems counterintuitive considering that the Pixel XL has no physical home screen button, only an on-screen one, and all that space is just dead space. Another thing users have to keep in mind about the Pixel XL is that the device is not waterproof. The Pixel XL sports a Quad HD AMOLED 5.5 inch display screen with 534 ppi, which is housed behind a 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass 4 panel. With the ability to produce 16.7 million colors at 100000:1 super contrast ratio, the Pixel XL is able to convey vivid cinematic displays, even in outdoor conditions. The Pixel XL also comes with a night light setting that tints the screen yellow to reduce eye strain from viewing a bright, bluish display at night. Underneath the hood, the Pixel XL is powered by Qualcomm’s brand new Snapdragon 821 chipset alongside 4 GB of RAM. The Pixel XL can also proudly claim to be among the first devices to run on the latest Android 7.1 Nougat out-of-the-box, probably making it the fastest Android smartphone to-date which is no surprise for a Google device. The Pixel XL is packed with a 3,400 mAh battery. Google claims that it can last 7 hours after just 15 minutes of charging. Designed to deliver users a Google-centric experience, the Pixel XL comes with all the services Google has to offer, including the latest Google Assistant, which is only exclusive to the Pixel. Activating the Google Assistant is straightforward. Simply press the home screen button or use the “OK Google” voice command. The Pixel XL comes in two variants, 32 GB and 128 GB of built-in storage, but this may not matter much because in both variants, the Pixel XL has unlimited photo and video cloud-storage via Google Photos. With the Google Keyboard – a GIF integrated keyboard, users can send GIFs in Google’s Messenger app, making the Pixel XL more enjoyable to use. The back of the phone features the Pixel Imprint, Google’s fingerprint scanner for added user security and services such as Android Pay. It works fast and accurate, and even has the additional perk of pulling down the notification menu by swiping the fingerprint scanner. Perched above the fingerprint scanner is a 12.3 MP camera with dual-LED flash. It is optimized for low light photography and has the ability to shoot 4K videos. While it does not feature optical image stabilization, it uses a combination of the gyroscope and software to steady the videos, and proves to do an amazing job recording videos on the go. Weather or not it will be able to be as good as the typical OIS is still a question yet to be answered. The Google Pixel XL is probably the device for anyone who is willing to spend more to get the best of what Google has to offer. Hands-on article by Jagadisa Rajarathnam

Bombastic? High-end specifications, an excellent camera, and a large battery are supposed to justify the steep price of the google smartphone. The Google assistant and vast storage capacity for photos should do just that. But, is this sufficient?

80% Google Pixel XL review: It's hard to stomach the price of Google's phone, but the new Really Blue option looks very cool
Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
While the Pixel XL is an attractive phone (if you can get used to the glass section) with decent combination of hardware and software, we can't help but feel a bit disappointed. It's very similar to the much cheaper Nexus 6P and OnePlus 3. You can get plenty of other Android phones for less which have extra features like waterproofing and expandable storage. Sorry Google, but things have gone a bit wrong here.

Also, as good as the Pixel is with its software, it cannot make Android app developers bring that level of polish present on iOS apps simply because app developers will want their apps running on as many devices as they can. And Pixel, with it’s high-end pricing will find it difficult to grow outside the enthusiast’s space- a space that sees the release of a new flagship every couple of months.

There are so many Android handsets to choose from with very little, in terms of specs and hardware, to actually separate them. A lot of people are loyal to brands – Apple and Samsung – while others prefer to go for value; value like the OnePlus 3 or BlackBerry DTEK50, for instance. The Pixel phones kind of sit outside of both these categories, as the brand and name itself, at least in the mobile space, is completely untested.

Google Pixel XL review
Source: Android Guys English Archive.org version
With prices that start at $650, the Pixel is a few hundred dollars more than other models with similar hardware. Head-to-head, though, it’s not fair, particularly if you care about specification bullet points. Look deeper, though, and you’ll find that the software and extra features help bring the value up.

92% Google Pixel XL Review: Successfully Succeeding the Nexus
Source: Pocketnow English Archive.org version
We’re very excited by the idea of a platform where Google controls the hardware and the software. We certainly see the benefits of proper optimization, but at this price we were hoping to see more risks. Anything which might help Google differentiate from the competition or justify a premium label, as the Nexus is now properly retired. We’ve also pointed to the rushed production schedule on this device, and how that seems to have affected camera quality, while forcing Google to omit features like water resistance.

85% Google Pixel XL review: A great "first" try for Google, but not the most complete handset
Source: Neowin English Archive.org version
While Google might have changed the name, the Pixel is a spiritual successor to the Nexus and with that, the company has done what it always does - produce a high-quality handset with the best of what Android has to offer. Although it might not be the most "complete" Android handset on the market, it's still technically a very good "first" try for Google and things can surely only get better. The Pixel isn't a handset that will excite you, but it's definitely a great Android device.

These phones are truly a great combination of hardware and software and as an Android fanboy myself, I love the Pixel and Pixel XL. I understand that the price of the phones is high but for someone who prefers having an Android phone over an iPhone, this is great value for money. Also, it has a great battery life, a USB Type-C port, and a 3.5mm audio jack.

Google Pixel XL Long Term Review: Still The Best
Source: Forbes English Archive.org version
The biggest issue – depending on how you see it – with the Pixel is how bland it is, which is fairly typical of Google’s phone line. But this isn’t necessarily a negative – it comes down to what you want from your phone. For me, it’s refreshing that the Pixel XL doesn’t come with the bloatware of a Samsung phone, or unnecessary gimmicks that don’t add to the overall experience. It’s like a blank canvas that I can build upon. The basics are covered; in an excellent camera, excellent battery, nice design and a crisp display – the rest is up to you. For me, that’s exactly what I want from my smartphone.

So does the Google Pixel/Pixel XL mean you can ditch your iPhone 6s or above or the Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 edge? It sure does deliver on the premium price tag, but I wouldn’t say it makes either of these phones redundant. The iPhone 7, 7 Plus are extremely capable device with excellent cameras; Galaxy S7, S7 edge look stunning and despite the Note 7 fiasco, are great flagships. For now, I’d say the Google Pixel phones join the list of flagships to consider, but doesn’t quite beat them.

Google Pixel XL offers an excellent camera, great raw performance, good battery life. There’s nothing to not like about the device. Only downer is its price point. If you have that kind of money, there is every reason to go for it, IF you are willing to pay the price for pure Android experience and priority updates. There is a market for that kind of audience, but it’s a niche market. For those that don’t have that kind of budget, the S7 edge in the premium segment and OnePlus 3 in the mid-range segment are the Android phones to look out for.

The Google Pixel XL Review: Life After Nexus
Source: AnandTech English Archive.org version
In the end, the Pixel XL is a decent enough phone, but it is not the ultimate Android phone that people were likely hoping for. It fails to stand out in a crowded market and cannot claim to be the best in any single category; at best it is a jack of all trades. This is a serious problem for a phone that is positioned as and priced like a flagship phone. It also does not help that it’s missing support for microSD cards and wireless charging (it does support the USB Power Delivery specification for 18W fast charging), features that are available on the Galaxy S7 edge. There’s also no environmental protection against water and dust, which both the S7 edge and iPhone 7 Plus include. Even its exclusive software feature, Google Assistant, should be available on future Android phones. In the end, the Pixel XL is a Nexus phone with another name. It still delivers a pure Android experience and timely software and security updates, but is that enough to justify its flagship price?

Others will want the LG V20 for its removable battery, "secondary" display, and unrivaled audio performance. But we highly recommend the Pixel XL to any Android user who wants the guarantee of updates and the peace of mind that comes with Google's promised support. That makes it an Editors' Choice.

The Google Pixel XL is just Android in its purest form and in short it really is a close (but not quite) perfect device. For those who have had multiple Nexus devices in the past you can recognise bits of them that have been rolled into the Pixel. The hardware is a touch bland, but still maintains an heir of beauty about it with a solid construction gorgeous screen and consistently high level performance. I have heard it referred to as iPhone running Android, but at the end of the day I like the fact it is a touch bland because it still looks nice when you stop to admire it, does the job users expect of it and it doesn’t detract from the user experience.

It is easy to see that Google has created something special in the form of Pixel and the Pixel XL. It is damn near perfect. But it is also missing features like a waterproof body and powerful speakers. And that, combined with the high prices of Rs 57,000 for Pixel and Rs 67,000 for Pixel XL, means the iPhone 7 is a slightly better deal for most consumers, especially when you take into account Apple's proven record in supporting its phones for three to four years with software support. But this lead that Apple has is marginal. The Pixel XL too is right up there. In fact, it is the best phone for you if you are already familiar with Android. It's just pure, unadulterated Android at its best with a killer camera.

It’s not so much what the Pixel offers, so much as what it represents. Google is no longer watching Android from the sidelines as it’s bastardized by their hardware partners and skinned to look like anything but the OS they built.

Nexus phones were outside the usual Android rat race, but now the Pixels have to and want to run alongside all flagship smartphones, and that includes even the iPhones, which are a clear target. We loved the camera on the Google Pixel XL and were satisfied with the build quality and software package. However, we're not convinced that Google built the definitive smartphone and yet the search giant priced it as such. This fact, along with the minimum availability through the traditional carrier channels, is bound to limit the Pixels market success.

For what you pay, you’ll get one of the best smartphone cameras there has ever been, as well as performance enough for any current or future app. Google Assistant might feel gimmicky to some, but if you like it, there’s no other way to get it right now. Priority Android updates are also pretty much guaranteed. Hopefully this spurs Samsung and others to do even better.

Google Pixel XL review: Killer camera, Apple approach
Source: New Atlas English Archive.org version
The excellent Google Pixel XL, an instant Smartphone of the Year candidate, is available now, both unlocked straight from Google and from Verizon in the US (and note that the VZW version also ships unlocked). The XL starts at US$769 for the 32 GB model, just like the iPhone 7 Plus.

Google Pixel / Pixel XL Review

These phones, or at least this review, is funny in a way because as you read through it, by no means are all of the boxes checked. Still, though, it would be hard for me to not recommend you buy the Pixel or Pixel XL as your next phone. Even without the real water resistance, SD card slot, or an inspired design, you just can’t beat the experience.

70% Android’s true standard bearer, with a price tag to match
Source: Gadgets Now English Archive.org version
We'll conclude this way. If you want to experience Android the way it was always meant to be and don't mind paying the premium for it, by all means go for the Pixel XL. But if you want a value-for-money flagship device that's equally (or even more) well-specced and doesn't cut down on essentials like a notification LED and better water/dust resistance, you'd be much better off going for a Galaxy S7 Edge or an HTC 10.

80% Google Pixel XL review: It's hard to stomach the price of Google's phone
Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
While the Pixel XL is an attractive phone (if you can get used to the glass section) with decent combination of hardware and software, we can't help but feel a bit disappointed. It's very similar to the much cheaper Nexus 6P and OnePlus 3. You can get plenty of other Android phones for less which have extra features like waterproofing and expandable storage. Sorry Google, but things have gone a bit wrong here.

Google Pixel XL Review: A New Generation of Android
Source: Gotta Be Mobile English Archive.org version
First things first, getting a case from the phone maker themselves is typically the best route to take. And if you love the color of that really Blue Pixel or enjoy the two-tone back with the metal and glass design, you'll want a clear case. It doesn't look like much more than a standard TPU case, but it's actually made of a hard and durably polycarbonate plastic. Offering cutouts for all ports, buttons, sensors and more. This is a sleek and minimal way to protect the Pixel or XL. It's available now on the Google Store, but it's expensive.

The Google Pixel is a very good smartphone, but it's also very expensive. It starts at £719 for the 32GB Pixel and runs up to £819 for the 128GB Pixel XL. Those are iPhone 7 and 7 Plus prices for a phone whose predecessors from the Nexus range were best known for their unbeatable bang-for-buck. All that aside, the Pixel is a hugely competent phone with an excellent camera, the best implementation of Android we have ever seen, an attractive albeit occasionally strange design, strong build quality and the inherent desirability that comes from knowing it is Google through-and-through.

The 5-inch Pixel is a great phone, and its big brother, the Pixel XL, is ever so slightly better. You'll get the same top-tier performance as on the smaller model, just with a bigger, crisper display and a more capacious battery to sweeten the deal. What's more, it's a little narrower and shorter than the iPhone 7 Plus, so it's a surprisingly easy to hold. It'll cost you, though: The XL starts at $769 for the 32GB model.

Google Pixel XL Review: Android embodied, for better or worse
Source: Slashgear English Archive.org version
That’s not, inherently, a bad thing, but it does make opting for Pixel a platform commitment as much – or more – than it is a hardware choice. You buy a Pixel because you buy into Google’s ecosystem vision of services. Ironically, while Apple might be more commonly thought of as controlling, the value proposition of an iPhone 7 seems far less tied to the Cupertino company’s services than Pixel does to those being developed down the road in Mountain View. In return you get a solid, if perhaps physically uninspiring device. A fast processor and great battery. A camera that’s not only good, but capable of some outstanding shots if the conditions are right. Just be sure you like how the flavor of Google’s vision tastes, because it’s everything the Pixel XL embodies.

The 32GB Pixel XL retails for $769 for the Google Store, which puts it on par with the prices of the Apple iPhone 7 and the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. It’s clear that Google is aiming for the premium Android smartphone market and not toward budget-oriented consumers. However, if you’re someone who uses the camera function a lot, the phone could just be worth the price since it takes professional-quality photos with ease. And if you just need to have a premium smartphone, the XL can certainly go toe-to-toe with its closest competitors, and is a worthy option to consider.

Both handsets have impressive hardware. The Snapdragon 821 represents the top of the Android tree at the time of writing, and Apple's A10 Fusion processor does the same. Screen-sizes are equal, but the Pixel XL just edges it with a QHD resolution. Google has really shouted about its new camera hardware, but we're sceptical that it can better Apple's dual assault.

Google Pixel XL vs Samsung Galaxy Note 7 first look
Source: Android Authority English Archive.org version
Right off the bat you can tell these are two very different smartphones. The Google Pixel XL brings forth a style we have grown very used to in the industry. It has a metal design and a sleek body that has become a standard in the high-end market. Meanwhile, the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 sports the same metal edge and glass front and back currently recognizable in all the latest Samsung handsets.

Google Pixel and Pixel XL: Hands-on first impressions of the Nexus killers
Source: International Business Times English Archive.org version
We say almost, because the Pixel and Pixel XL phones, as well as the equally new Daydream View VR headset, are actually manufactured by HTC. Not that buyers would notice, because these handsets are universally branded as Google, complete with 'G' logo on their aluminium back. This is an HTC phone as much as the iPhone 7 is made by Foxconn.

Google Pixel XL Review: Hands-on with Google's iPhone-challenging oversized flagship phone
Source: Digital Spy English Archive.org version
Unadulterated stock Android is a major draw, and the arrival of Google Assistant only enhances this, but with such a lofty price tag it doesn't really do much to stand out from the masses. We can't wait to spend more time with the phone, but at this early stage we wouldn't be rushing out to buy one.

Google Pixel vs Google Pixel XL: Which Pixel should I buy?
Source: Tech Advisor English Archive.org version
We wouldn’t say one of these phones was arguably better than the other, since in essence they are almost the same phone. The Google Pixel is our pick for its more manageable size and lower price, but the Pixel XL stands out for its larger, higher-resolution screen and higher-capacity battery - if video and gaming is your thing you might well prefer the Pixel XL.

5 Reasons To Buy The Google Pixel XL
Source: Forbes English Archive.org version
The improved design, best-in-class camera and unlimited “free” storage doesn’t come cheap. The most expensive model, the 128GB Pixel XL costs $819, which is right up there with the iPhone 7. Perhaps not surprising given its high-end specifications. But Nexus users will note the jump in price from previous handsets. Comparatively, last year’s most expensive Nexus, the 128GB Nexus 6P cost $649, $170 cheaper.

The release of the Pixel phones is exciting, but not in the way you might expect. There’s nothing here we haven’t seen before – Snapdragon 821 aside – and design is probably not going to set the world alight. But, the software seems slick and it's exciting that Google's finally making phones with its logo on them. That said, it's and hitting iPhone 7 pricing makes this completely different from any Nexus before. I'll have to wait and see if it's worth it.

Android is by far the most popular smartphone OS - 7 out every 8 phones run some version of it. And yet its purest form, a Nexus device, is anything but dominant in the marketplace. A rebranding effort sees the "Google phones" change the name to Pixel in the hope to change the popularity as well.

Revue de presse : les tests des Google Pixel (XL) ont scotché les journalistes américains

La Lenovo Yoga Book est une tablette très agréable d'utilisation, sur laquelle il est vraiment facile de réaliser des dessins et de belles toiles grâce à une excellente interaction entre le stylet et l'écran. À ce niveau-là, l'expérience est réussie et on peut vraiment passer des heures à dessiner, plus ou moins bien selon le talent.

Google:

Google was founded in 1995 in the USA and became the world's most important search engine in its core business.  Google offers a variety of hardware products, including smartphones, speakers, cameras and smart displays. Since 2012, Google also sells tablets and smartphones.


Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

NVIDIA Tegra X1 Maxwell GPU: Integrated graphics card in the Tegra X1 SoC without dedicated memory. The X1 GPU is based on the Maxwell architecture with two SMMs (256 shader cores). It supports DirectX 11.2, OpenGL ES 3.1 and OpenGL 4.5 (same features as the desktop and laptop Maxwell based graphics cards).

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

Qualcomm Adreno 530: Integrated graphics card in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 that is clocked at up to 624 MHz. Early 2016 it is a high end graphics card for Android based smartphones and tablets that should be able to coop with very demanding games.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


NVIDIA Tegra:

X1: SoC for tablets with four ARM Cortex A57 and four Cortex A53 processor cores and a Maxwell based graphics card with 356 CUDA cores.

Qualcomm Snapdragon:

820 MSM8996: High-end ARM SoC with 4 CPU cores (two fast 2.15 GHz cores in a cluster and two power saving 1.6 GHz cores) and an Adreno 530 GPU. Manufactured in a 14 nm HPM process.

SD 821: High-end ARM SoC with 4 CPU cores (two fast 2.4 GHz cores in a cluster and two power saving 1.6 GHz cores) and an Adreno 530 GPU. Manufactured in a 14 nm HPM process.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


5.00:

It is a very small display format for smartphones. You should by no means be mis-sighted and you will generally see very little on the screen and only have a small resolution available. In return, the device should be very small and handy.

» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


No weight comment found (one expected)!


85.61%: This is an above-average rating. Nevertheless, it should not be forgotten that about one fifth of all tested models receive a better rating.
