Great phone

Phone owned for less than a month

Coming from iOS I must say I see alot of Similar aspects. I truly feel like Pixel is the most fluid android experience you can get. The time I've played with it I feel it's a very snappy device that with more kinks worked out could make me switch from the deep dark world of Apple iOS. That being said this could never replace my iPhone Xs Max as my daily driver but its a close second. Good job on this one Google.

Its a good phone if you can get a really good deal on it. But I'd hold off on getting it and wait to see what the Pixel 4 can offer. The phone has lag issues especially with multitasking. The camera launch speed is really slow. The speakers are loud and clear but they are unbalanced which is annoying. The notch gets in the way of videos and cuts off notifications on the status bar and replaces them with a dot. The phone also removed the LED notification which I found very useful. Overall its a good phone with great features, each software update makes it a little better but I honestly feel that Google realized that they under delivered with this phone putting 4GB of ram in it. Wireless charging is honestly a gimmick, id prefer to have a metal back and no wireless charging. Cant bash the phone too much because it is honestly a good phone, just not worth the upgrade from previous Pixels or the price tag
