First look of Google Pixel and Pixel XL

Finally Google brand’s Pixel and Pixel XL smartphones have been launched. The launch event held in San Francisco made it clear that the Pixel smartphone has been launched as a rival to Apple’s iPhone. However, many experts believe that this phone will cause more damage to brands like Samsung. We spent some time during the launch event. Google Pixel And Pixel XL We spent some time with the smartphone. How did we like this phone in the first look? Let us tell you.
There’s nothing revolutionary about the design of the Pixel phones. However, many users won’t care about that. At first glance, the design is similar to the iPhone. But like most Android phones, the Pixel XL has a better screen-to-body ratio than the iPhone 7 Plus. So, despite having a bigger screen, it’s not too difficult to use.

There is a strange excitement about the blue colour. But we did not like this colour variant at all. The black colour variant goes with our choice. And the silver colour variant is also fine. However, this is our choice. Your choice may be something else. Anyway, the blue colour variant is not going to be launched in India. In such a situation, the question of liking or disliking does not arise.

As Gadgets 360 said in August, Google Assistant will be the most important feature of the new Pixel smartphones. Think of Google Assistant like this… It is a mix of Now on Tap and Apple’s Siri, with a wealth of information collected by Google’s Knowledge Graph. Google revealed in the presentation that the Assistant has Now on Tap-like capabilities. You can also ask the Assistant to suggest a restaurant for lunch. We spent some time with this feature. You can activate the voice-based assistant by pressing the home button for a while. As expected, Google’s voice recognition is excellent and it worked without any problems. And on most occasions, we got the right answers to our questions.

From the kind of hardware products Google introduced at the event, it is clear that the company wants to make us comfortable in talking to our devices.

Some exclusive features have also been provided in Google Pixel and Google Pixel XL, which can become a reason for conflict with other companies in the future. It is also not clear when features like Google Assistant will be introduced in the main Android project.

During the event, apart from the Assistant, Google also talked a lot about the handset’s camera. It is worth noting that unlike Apple and Xiaomi’s strategy, Google has used the same camera setup in both the phones. Google says that the only difference between Pixel and Pixel XL is the display and battery capacity. The company claims that the Pixel phone has got a camera with 89 DXOMark rating which is the highest for any smartphone. We do not want to say anything about the camera performance right now. It would be better to wait for the review for this. But we will definitely say that the new camera app is very fast.
