Google Pixel XL Unboxing & Initial Review! By Max Lee

Okay, let's go ahead and unbox this bad boy inside the box, you'll find the Google Pixel XL Wow. This looks like a solid phone there's a pouch with a bunch of manuals and sim ejaculatory tool. Pixel uses USB type-c, so it comes with a USB type-c cable for connecting to your computer or charging there's also a USB type-c OTG adapter. So you can transfer data from other smartphones or use a USB flash drive with it inside the hidden compartment. We find AC adapter rated for 5 volts, 3, amps and 9 volts 2 amps, most likely quick charge 2.0 compatible. Here we find another USB type-c cable, but this one is USB type-c to a USB type-c, that's pretty much it inside the box.

My first impressions of the pixel excel is rather mixed. First, let's start with the field. The pixel XL is a 5.5 inch device with an all metal unibody design, very similar to ACC 10. It feels much heavier than my s7 edge and indeed it is 11 grams, heavier at 168 grams for weight, but the phone feels super solid. Perhaps the most solid Google phone I have ever held.

One of the biggest problems with 6p was its Bend issue with the new pixel XL. It is very, very solid check out. Jerry-Rigged everything's been test video on the pixel excel. If you don't believe me on the left side, you will find a NATO SIM slot, and unfortunately it does not have a micro SD card slot. However, if Google does give you unlimited cloud storage of your photos and videos in the original resolution, including 4k videos, so long as they're shot with your pixel phone.

While this is a great idea for those of you with good internet, it may not be such a good option for those of you on limited cellular plans with slow Wi-Fi. That's definitely a bummer for those of you who grab the 32 gigabyte version like myself, but you can always grab the more expensive 128 gigabyte versions or use an OTG flash drive, but on the upside pixel phones have both GSM and CDMA radios, meaning you can use it on AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint or Verizon I popped, my Verizon SIM, and got data and voice working right away on the right. You will find the power button mesh, so you can easily feel in the dark, and this is made from all-metal o. FN yeah. The volume buttons are also metallic, very click and easy to press on the bottom.

You'll find USB type-c, port and speakers. The speakers have been downgraded to Mono speakers this year, and this could be a bit disappointing for previous Nexus 6 or 6p users. The sound is OK pretty decent, but nothing out of the ordinary on the back. You'll see a single G. Yes, this is the g-spot, and you see a small print phone by Google and this phone is made in Taiwan by a STE.

C back is particularly unique, I would say, as it has 2/3 metal and one-third glass. The glass material reflects much warmer colors, and you can see here that it is reflecting yellow off. My white soft boxes looks actually kind of cool, not a fan of this design, but then again I won't be spending most of my time. Looking at the back of the phone or do you there's also dual LED, followed by twelve point: three megapixel camera, sensors and microphone upon my initial testing versus the Nexus 6p and s7 edge. The pixel XL seems to perform slightly better in low light and autofocus and shutter speed is amazingly fast.

You can take the photos much, much quicker than last year's 6p now pixel does seem to suffer from light flares when pointed directly at light sources such as LEDs. While this didn't happen on any of my other smartphones with video pixel now has 4k, along with the gyro that will stabilize your videos. It seems a bit stutter, but this is definitely a huge improvement over last year, 6p, which had none, there's, also slow motion at 120 frames per second and 240 frames per second, the 120 look real good. While the 240 seem to degrade in quality lens blur, it works quite well. Also, you should be able to easily fake DSLR shots for close-ups on Instagram.

As far as the software goes, so pixels performs beautifully absolutely no lack, while switching between apps or using the phone itself, the launcher has been updated with the latest pixel launcher, swipe, left to access, Google now and swipe up on the arrow to access your app drawer as traditionally with Google phones. The pixel comes with absolutely no blower, and these are pretty much all the apps it comes with. Those of you who appreciate minimalistic, UI pixel will definitely satisfy your thirst. Cool feature on the pixel is definitely its Google Assistant, which can be activated by holding down the home button. You can ask the assistant various things like README the weather.

For today. How is the traffic to work and pretty much anything you can think of when the phone screen is off? You can also easily activate the Google Assistant by saying, ok, Google and ask a question: ok, Google should I vote for Hillary or Clinton here's. What I found need help first time grandma to using a smartphone. No problem. You can get free help from Google via phone or chat in its settings menu.

The pixel XL has a 5.5 inch, 1440p AMOLED display viewing angles are excellent and colors are vibrant, while pixel excel isn't as bright as the SM net. Videos look great, and the high resolution will definitely satisfy those of you who prefer more pixels' battery life should be excellent, with its whopping 34 50 mill amp hour battery, along with efficient AMOLED screen. I should have a screen on time batteries test soon, but in my short test drive battery seems to last forever, especially with its Android 7.1 Roget. Overall pixel XL is definitely one of the best smartphones you can buy this year. If you're looking for a bigger 5.5 inch device, pixel XL starts at 769 for 32 gigabytes and 869 for the 128 gigabyte model. Of course, at such a high prey's, you have much better options like the Galaxy S7 edge, SMG, 935, F international model.

You can get on eBay for $5.99, with micros card or even last year's Nexus 6p, which has better stereo speakers, along with camera that still kicks ass. If you're looking for a good deal, I would wait until Black Friday next month, where plenty 6p should go on sale for less than half the price of pixel AFCEL. Also, if you're only AT&T or Verizon, and would like to route your smartphone, you can grab an unlock version of the pixel XL and use it on any US network, along with ability to route the phone out of the box. That could be the number one reason to buy this phone, but comparing apples, oranges, the pixel XL seems to be a bit overpriced in comparison to many of the flagship available today, while camera performance is indeed excellent, it doesn't seem to outperform the s7 edge or the 6p buy. So much that I want to pay more money for I should have a full review, but for right now these are my initial thoughts, and they may change as I use it.

As my daily driver and the thank-you gospel mark, my video don't forget to the thumbs up folks, shout-outs, my home bows out there Greg all who's, always snap chatting me, Wan and DC. Follow me on Twitter Facebook, Google+ House go have a great day folks and as always, stay oh yeah how's that feel oh yeah. That feels good. Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah! That feels so good. Oh yeah,.
