Google Pixel review: Pure Android at its absolute best

If you're wary of Samsung or looking for a worthy iPhone alternative, the Google Pixel is the high-end Android phone to get. The Google Pixel remains our favorite phone, bar none -- unless you're looking for a bigger screen, in which case we'd recommend its big brother, the Pixel XL.
Pros:
  • The Google Pixel has a fantastic camera, especially in low light
  • It's elegantly designed
  • Google Assistant takes one of the most natural, human approaches to answering your voice.
Cons:
  • The phone's display is dim in outdoor sunlight and its camera's Lens Blur feature is shoddy
  • It's splash-resistant rather than dunkable, and it's pricey compared to previous Google Nexus devices.

Google Pixel Review

The Google Pixel truly cements Google's place in the high-end phone market segment. Previous Google Nexus models did bring an excellent "value for the price" but had a tendency to lose out slightly on important features such as Camera Performance and Industrial Design.

Worst phone I've ever had the displeasure to own.

This phone is absolutely atrocious. The audio volume incessantly malfunctions and, according to my otolaryngologist, has injured my hearing. The touch screen is sensitive to the slightest heat, and will won't work in situations where the slightest heat may radiate in it's direction, like near a...
Pros:
  • Can only ruin your life once
Cons:
  • Exists

Google Pixel Review

Simple yet elegant; raw yet powerful. This is what the Google Pixel represents. If the iPhone is a great product that came out from the harmonious union between the hardware and software, Google has made the same achievement with the Pixel.
