Google Pixel 4 XL 64GB Just Black

Product Information

Even though the Pixel 4 camera is still the best on a smartphone in my opinion, it’s a lot harder to recommend this year’s Pixel. The other new feature made possible by Soli is Motion Sense, which enables you to control music and alarms by gesturing above the device.

However, the DeltaE and DeltaE 2000 deviations are slightly elevated and are only surpassed by the LG G8X ThinQ in our test field. It uses two near-infrared (NIR) cameras, a flood emitter, and dot projector for a very iPhone-like face unlocking experience.

It’s notable that the Pixel 4 XL’s 1440 x 3040 resolution (537 pixels per inch) is greater and sharper than the standard Pixel 4’s 1080 x 2280 display (with 444 pixels per inch), but at these sizes you aren’t going to notice much of a difference, and Google isn’t pushing its VR platform anymore, so it’s not inches from your face. The other option is remembering to turn on and hit the “lockdown” button in the power menu if you’re concerned somebody might try to unlock it with your face. Otherwise, the phone isn’t too different from the Google Pixel handsets you know and love - but stripping out the fingerprint sensor in favor of Face Unlock’s finicky facial-recognition seems like a generational tech shove that we normally see from Apple. Introduced in October of 2019, the Google Pixel 4 XL is an unusual move in the path of Google to reduce the physical architecture and to perform creative functionality in new territories Although the majority of the system is in line with the tradition of its predecessors and the current camera is the ultimate tool.

While the iPhone 11 has 4K at 60fps on its front-facing camera, the Pixel 4 still doesn’t even support it on its primary camera. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). It takes away lots of little points of friction through clever uses of its new sensors like face unlock and Motion Sense.ai, and it’s understandably not perfect – make sure you’re using it in a quiet room if you want the best possible transcript. In the benchmarks, the Pixel 4 XL convinces with a good system performance, overall placing in the middle of our test field. But the Pixel 4 has at least five major new hardware-based features: face unlock, Motion Sense, the new Google Assistant, the new 90Hz display, and a second telephoto camera lens.
