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.

The editors didn't like
No water-resistance
Bland generic design
Costs as much as iPhone
No memory card slot
Design is a little dull
Lacks extra features found on similarly priced flagships like water resistance
Wireless charging
OIS
Multilens cameras
The skyhigh price feels more like a marketing ploy ("We're just as good as the iPhone!") than a justifiable price point
The single speaker is a big downgrade from the Nexus 6P. Google is charging more and delivering less
A rear glass panel adds fragil
Price There's no way around it
The price points are high. iPhone high. And you're going to be hardpressed to convince the valueobsessed that there's nearly $800 of smartphone in a Pixel XL
Not water resistant
No water resistance
Eyewatering SIMfree price
Google Assistant is still learning
Back glass prone to scratching
Styling might be too close to an iPhone for some
Pricey
No microSD support
No waterproofing
Expandable storage
Or wireless charging
Bezels are stupid big
No 64GB model
Battery life (regular model)
Limited color options
Excessive camera glare issue
No wireless charging (despite half-glass back)
No extreme water resistance
No stereo speakers
Water resistance limited to IP53
Uninspired front design
Google Assistant still has growing to do
Verizon Carrier exclusive
The phone's display is dim in outdoor sunlight and its camera's Lens Blur feature is shoddy. It's splashresistant rather than dunkable
And it's pricey compared to previous Google Nexus devices
Every phone should be waterproof
And this one isn't. Good as it is
Assistant's hardly flawless
Disappointing design
OK audio
No microSD card slot
Display in need of a brightness boost
A little on the thick side for a phone this size
No waterproofing/dust resistance
Design could be better
Lacks full-blown water resistance
Display is not bright enough in sunlight
Audio can distort
Expensive
Yawninducing design
Less waterresistant than rivals
Lack of dynamic range
Visible color shading in indoor conditions
Occasionally abrupt ">white balance transitions
Slight white balance inaccuracies in low light
Stabilization artifacts in indoor conditions (sharpness differences over consecutive frames

The Pixel is the best feeling and performing Google(ish) made phone to date. It's also better than (subjectively) just about every other Android phone on the market on multiple fronts. The only big con to be said is that it lacks a water resistance rating...
Abstract: When the Google Pixel was announced I was immediately excited to try out the camera and it did not disappoint. The camera on this phone is even more impressive than the Galaxy S7 which I reviewed earlier this year. To be fair, I have not tried the iPhone...

Pricey, No stereo speakers, Water resistance limited to IP53, Uninspired front design, Google Assistant still has growing to do, Verizon Carrier exclusive
To conclude, if we were to judge the Google Pixel in a bubble, then it's very easy to recommend this phone. We've got a device that's really delicious to handle, with a very delightful experience in the software, lots of promise with the Google Assistant...
Abstract: Our written Google Pixel and Pixel XL review dropped last week, but we've had a number of you ask when the video review would be out. Does today work? It's out now!For those who weren't interested in reading the thousands of words put down in that review...

Abstract: The Pixel is easily one of the best phones of 2016, giving Google a device that can go head to head with Apple's iPhone and Samsung's Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. As much as we like the Pixel , though, it's not perfect. Here's a quick overview of what we love a...
There are many non-technical factors to choosing your next Android smartphone including price, availability, branding and long term support. However if we push those to the side for the moment at just look at the tech, it is clear that the Pixel and Pixel...
Abstract: It's been a good year for phone photographers, with each new device trying its hardest to outdo whatever is being replaced. We've reached a point where most people are replacing separate cameras with their phones, and they're not losing any quality over i...
Abstract: The Pixel phones have been out for a several weeks now, and a lot has been said about the camera. I will try to comment on some of the things that I've felt have been a bit overlooked, in a deeper dive into the Google Camera 4.2 on the Pixel XL. Most of t...
Google's first experiment at controlling the hardware in addition to the software of a phone came out really, really well. It's not a perfect phone, and there are some subjective issues that might put users off, but if you're looking for what you could ac...
Slightly faster recharge times, Headphone jack builtin, Higherres display, Brighter screen, More color/storage options, Slimmer build, Stereo speakers
Google and Apple really don't make it easy for us to identify one clearly superior phone, and maybe that's a good thing – there's so much on the line with these two handsets that the companies behind them have taken little to change, and it really shows j...
