    Krish, 30 Nov 2019Correct, reviewers and people should realize that Google is... moreCompletely false.

    Pixel 4 does have those rubbish hardware and poor marketing strategy, the latter discounting it heavily as a marketing ploy. Not to mention the phone breaks easily (go see JerryRigEverything's durability test). Small battery too.

    Who cares about Shamsung these days? You've got all the Chinese OEMs. They have much better performance, possibly better cameras, also better battery life, audio, kit, etc. Thanks, makes Realme X2 Pro, OnePlus 7T, etc. shines even more.

      Anonymous, 30 Nov 2019I completely agree. I owned every one starting with Nexus l... moreSmh not true. Don't listen. Those phones come with less RAM and storage. Chipset should have been Sd855+. Last year Pixel 3 was a downclocked Sd845. Anandtech has mentioned a flaw with the camera, go read the article. I have touched both the Pixel 3 and 3 XL in a phone store. Looks ugly. Not to mention the high price at launch and discounting it later as a marketing ploy. Loses out to most Chinese competitors. I like my new Realme X2 Pro by the way.

      Oh don't tell me the Pixel 4 can bend easily. If you've seen the durability test, the Pixel 4 is an embarassment. The antenna bands are an issue.

        Pixel 4 has no microphone or sound issues. The bottom of the phone is charging port to each side is a 2-1" holes where speaker and microphone uses.
        I have pixel 4 XL and Google is getting slammed. I don't think it's apples to apples. The iPhone xr is what Google was trying to better. It's way better than the xr.

        If Google issued another phone in January it would beat iPhone 11. iPhone also knew xr was going to be smashed so they quickly fixed issues. Every one says iPhone 11 has amazing camera but Google updates throughout the year. Pixel photos are going to get better as each pixel had best camera when it releases. The battery is much better than pixel 3 xl we had. It's not the best in big 4 with Galaxy OnePlus, apple and Google. It has much better screen resolution but they don't mention that. It also of big 4 best apple and Galaxy in amount of charge in an hour.
        It's best phone on the market in my opinion and one plus, Apple and Samsung are all about the same. No phone has highest mark in all categories.

          Colors from camera look great, noise is quite bad however. Could easily choose rog2 or xperia1 instead.

            Staicshox, 30 Nov 2019It's funny with all the negative reviews. Do you guys even... moreI completely agree. I owned every one starting with Nexus line. The issue on battery life isn't an issue for me either however, I purchased a suction cup portable Qi battery to use when needed. RAM is an issue. Some of my games either are choppy or crashes.... Great phone but I think they should make a Premium version with top of line specs or make this top in spec sheet.

              Does the Pixel 4 suffer from the same microphone issues as the Pixel 3? I recall many Pixel 3 owners complained about poor audio when video was shot with rear camera/mike. More specially, human voice was drowned in background noise. Google then issued a half-assed software fix... How is it on the Pixel 4?

                Staicshox, 30 Nov 2019It's funny with all the negative reviews. Do you guys even... moreCorrect, reviewers and people should realize that Google is a software giant and you cannot put the details on the table and judge them.

                Does anyone know that Apple puts 4gb memory RAM in the latest and greatest flagship phones? No because they are fast! Well there you go then, Google Pixel is the iPhone of Android world.

                I've been an Apple user since the iPhone 3Gs days until Xs. And just started using the Pixel 4 launch I'm super impressed with Google has done.

                My wife has a Samsung S10, tell me that phone takes better pictures or is a faster phone or even has a better battery life? I don't think so!!! However, just cuz Samsung is good on papers, it's all good in the Samsung world.

                  google should focus only on its numerous android bugs and may be on its search engine not showing much adult contents even with safe mode turned off, hardware parts should be left to notable android giants.

                  dead pixel, literally already.

                    It's funny with all the negative reviews. Do you guys even own a pixel 4 or 4 xl. I have had every version of the pixels and I have to say the pixel 4 xl is a great phone. It runs smooth the battery life doesn't seem to be an issue for me. The picture qauilty is amazing. My wife has an iPhone 11 pro Max and the pixel 4xl has taken better pictures most of the time.

                      Saw a camera test on Youtube with a Sony Xperia 5 and the Sony was much better.

                          Geric.770, 30 Nov 2019Well, if the price is right like this year that is. Pixel ... moreLike nexus devices used to be, like Last year's pixel 3a.

                            Still waiting on that Pixel 3 non-xl long term review. Can we have it now?

                              That battery life tho.

                              Reminds me of my Xperia Z1 back in 2013.

                                Anonymous, 30 Nov 2019You would know it's worth more than $375 when you hold one.... moreI tried...next to a 350euro Xiaomi Mi9,not a chance I'd pay 500euro more for the Pixel,no single reason..

                                  The battery life and display brightness are simply pathetic for 2019 flagship smartphone, and if you think about it, iPhone 11 is better than this phone in almost every way and still costs less. Go back to the drawing board Google, or stick to software development if you can't help but ridiculing your customers by releasing half baked products like this.

                                    Walter C. Dornez, 30 Nov 2019Let's hope the 4a will be this phone's saving graceWell, if the price is right like this year that is.
                                    Pixel 3a did its job impressing people on the mid-range side.

                                    For me, I think they should stick to low to mid smartphone division or better, just pure software where they Excel the most.

                                      Geric.770, 30 Nov 2019Worst phone of the year so far. Realme X2 Pro just slices t... moreLet's hope the 4a will be this phone's saving grace
