Google introduced its flagship phones Pixel3 and Pixel 3XL last week and it was totally phenomenal. Pixel 3 and Pixel 3XL are Google Phones. They rely Google data and makes everything better with Google’s machine learning; when I talk about better, it includes photos, annoying spam calls, even your “digital well-being.”
Google stepped in the field of hardware not very long ago but they have released the third revision of its smartphones. Google making phones are no big deal now but we should be clear about its priorities and design.
What do people think while buying a phone? Do they think about the vision of the company? No, obviously not; all they want is a nice screen, an excellent camera, better battery life.
The only prime focus of Google this year was to improve the “phone stuff”. The Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are great phones and address all the grievances of previous Pixels.

The Pixel phones have continued to be the “best android phones” for the last three consecutive years, but they do so with bezels, screen quality, and other things. This year Google aims to claim the title of the “best android phone” with Pixel 3 and Pixel 3XL.

The biggest improvement this year in both the siblings is the screen quality. The screens are great. Both the phone sizes have got OLED displays as it offers all the benefits of that technology.

The corner problems are 100 percent gone this year. The screens of both the siblings are vibrant and bright with colors that pop from all the viewing angles.
The screens are bigger this time without a bigger body that is the all because of higher aspect ratio.
According to the claims made by Google, the front facing speakers are around 40 percent louder than before.
Hardware:
This time Pixel Phone justifies its price which clearly makes it the best in its range. Huge storage, Glass and Aluminum rear panel and beautiful finish. There are various small components that add up to put this phone in the premium range. Side bending glass gives it an even and smooth surface.
The Google has not reached the level of iPhone and Samsung in fit and finish but the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are little less dowdy.

The siblings will enter the market in three colors: “just black”, “clearly white” and “not pink”. The pink color is very decent; it’s a subtle hue and has an orange power button. All the three colors look very beautiful and the only logo on the entire body is a single ‘G’ on the back.
The best stuff about the design is the glass back. It has been etched with the matte finish whereas the top portion is glossy. The phone feels more secure than a fully glossy phone.
The glass panels on both the sides are made up of Gorilla Glass 5, and Google claims them to be as scratch resistant as any other modern smartphone.
Camera:
Last year released Pixel 2 was the best camera that one could get on any smartphone, even better than the iPhone XS that was released last month but the Pixel 3 claims the “best camera phone” tag.
New Pixel 3 camera features:
Night Sight: images from dark scenes can be brighten
Photo Booth: takes selfie automatically when everybody in the frame is smiling.
Playground: puts various stickers in the scenes.
Group Selfies: wide angle front facing camera can accommodate more people in the frame.
Motion Auto Focus: can focus a moving subject
Portrait mode adjustment: adjust bokeh just after the shoot
Top Shot: can select a better image from busts
RAW: save the computational RAW file in the main camera app.
