Google Pixel and Pixel XL variants are out now competing with the other brands that have been already tried and tested by the Android users. But, with the positive reviews that Pixel phones are receiving, it will be another brand that known manufacturers need to watch out for.
The sales of Google Pixel and Pixel XL are relatively high considering that it was the first time Google manufactured its own phone. Just a few weeks back after its release, the devices were out of stock quickly and took Google four to five weeks before they can deliver the orders.
According to reports, Google Pixel and Pixel XL continue to compete even with Nexus phones like Nexus 6P. The specs of Pixel XL are somewhat near with Nexus 6P specs and the only difference is that Pixel is more expensive than Nexus 6P.
Google collaborated with HTC as its OEM for the Pixel devices, but the hardware and software control are from the Mountain View Company. Some noticed that Pixel XL does resemble with the HTC 10 because of the similarity of its rounded edges. Google Pixel and Pixel XL also come with three color variants Quite Black, Very Silver, and Really Blue.
What makes Google Pixel unique from other smartphones is that it features a built-in Google Assistant. This feature allows the users to get answers, manage everyday tasks, check the weather, and find the best place to dine and everything you can think of, all you need to do is ask. Also, Pixel and Pixel XL have the best photo results even in the low light with its 12.3MP at 1.55µm pixels rear camera.
Moreover, users will be amazed at some tricks Google Pixel and Pixel XL have to give its users a better experience in using their phones. The fingerprint sensor also has a different capability like checking notifications and accessing phone's quick settings by simply swiping down the fingerprint sensor. It also has a gesture feature to switch cameras between the front and rear camera. Aside from touching the switch option, users need to twist their wrist twice to make the camera switch from rear to the front camera, and just do double twist the wrist again and it will revert back to the primary camera.
The competition of being the ultimate Android phone continues with the arrival of much higher specs and features but comes with a cheaper price. There are Chinese manufacturers like Xiaomi and OnePlus that releases a beast phone like Mi 5S and OnePlus 3T that Google should look at. The only thing that will matter now is how Google Pixel and Pixel XL will stand as a true quality phone with the overall good performance considering its expensive price.
