The 5.5-inch Pixel XL features a 3,450 mAh battery
The Google Pixel XL is in a way a first for Android: an all-out Google phone, where the company that makes the Android platform also designs the phone and makes all the deep-level tweaks to optimize it as much as possible.
This makes the Pixel XL special: such deep-level optimization is said to squeeze the maximum possible battery life and we no longer need to put the blame on third-party skins for the poor battery life of a device. With the Pixel XL there are no excuses.
So how did the Pixel XL do?
The answer is good, but not great as the bar of expectations might have been set a bit too far up. The Pixel XL battery life test result is 7 hours and 19 minutes of screen-on time in our test, practically on par with the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. Make no mistake: this is some solid battery longevity, higher than what you get on the Nexus 6P, the LG V20, and many other Android competitors. It is not among the very best, though, with phones such as the iPhone 7 Plus outscoring it significantly - the said iPhone scored 9 hours and 5 minutes of screen-on time on the same test.

The Pixel XL supports quick charging
The Pixel XL has a 3,450 mAh non-removable battery, in case you wondered, while in the case of its closest rivals, we see a 3,600 mAh battery cell on the S7 Edge, and a 2,900 mAh battery on the iPhone 7 Plus.
Luckily, the Pixel XL does support quick charging and the built-in wall charger takes about two hours to fully replenish a battery from 0 to 100%. This is some 20 minutes slower than Samsung's fast charging solution, but significantly faster than the iPhone 7 Plus, which takes some 3 hours and nearly 20 minutes to get its battery fully recharged.
