The good 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 bad The phone’s display is dim in outdoor sunlight and its camera’s Lens Blur feature is shoddy. It’s splash-resistant rather than dunkable, and it’s pricey compared to previous Google Nexus devices. It’s the purest vehicle for Android Nougat 7.0, Google’s mobile operating system. It’s a relatively quick-charger.
The device runs a pure version of Android 7.1 Nougat. It’s the first to have Google’s messaging service Alloand its video calling app Duopreloaded ( you can uninstall them if you want) .Launcher shortcuts, aka Google’s take on Apple’s 3D Touch, lets you long-press on some apps to call up additional menu options.You can send GIFs inside Google Keyboard, for all your GIF-fy delights.To reduce eye strain from viewing a bright, bluish display at night, there’s a Night Light setting that tints the screen yellow. ( Other Android phones and the iPhone already do this.) On the back is a fingerprint reader for added user security and services such as Android Pay. It works quickly, and as a bonus you can use it to slide down notifications on the screen.
