Hardly coming as a surprise to anyone after the sheer amount of leaks, Google has finally officially announced the Pixel 4 XL. Here's our first look.
Excellent camera for photos;Grippy body is a nice change from the usual, highly polished flagships;Smooth Display is a significant upgrade;Great software
Disappointing battery life;Lack of ultra-wide camera is a shame;Motion Sense features are currently limited;Storage options only up to 128GB

The best Android experience, bar none?
Optimum Android experience ; Great video ; Excellent camera
Sound lacks life ; No fingerprint sensor
Google’s Pixel phones remain a strong choice for Android purists and photography fans

The Google Pixel 4 XL is the new, big-screened flagship smartphone bearing the search giant's name, and arrives alongside its smaller sibling, the Google Pixel 4 . It's the direct replacement for the Pixel 3 XL , and like its predecessor the main...
Camera has lots of potential Large display, no notch
No fingerprint scanner Few hardware improvements
The Google Pixel 4 XL hasn't changed much from its predecessor, but aside from the extra camera lens and refined photo software, what changes there are might put off potential buyers. The notch is gone, with the top black bezel returning, and the...

A great pure Android handset - but rivals have closed the gap in camera performance, offer more power, more compact design and better battery life.
Camera performance ; Pure Android software ; Exclusive smart features ; Wonderful display
Battery life is average ; Motion Sense gestures add little to nothing ; No wide-angle camera ; Low storage
Certainly a great pure Android handset - but rivals have closed the gap in camera performance, while offering more power, more compact design and better battery life. While the Google Pixel 4 XL is attractive now, we suspect that in four months time...

With the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL, Google looks as though it's drifted further from the Pixel's original intent by producing two devices that, although capable, feel out of touch with both their Android competition and Apple's latest iOS-powered hardware.

The big-screen Pixel 4 XL is nearly identical to the Pixel 4, which includes the excellent camera, secure face unlock and expensive price.
The Pixel 4 XL has a big screen that refreshes 90 times a second, so everything looks real smooth. It also takes outstanding photos, and its face unlock is the fastest we've seen.
The phone is expensive, doesn't come with earbuds and has no expandable storage option.
There's no denying the Pixel 4 XL has one of the best cameras around, but its shortcomings don't justify its high price. Instead, consider the Note 10 or the OnePlus 7T. The Pixel 3 XL is another great candidate and is discounted at $600 now.

Expert review by : Bobby Hellard (itpro.co.uk)
There's plenty to love on the Pixel 4 XL, but it needs more juice...
Motion Sensor; Superb display; Great cameras
Thick bezels; Poor battery
There is a lot to love about the Pixel 4 XL, such as the display or the extra camera, but our favourite addition is the motion sensor which could play a big role in its future. However, it doesn't do enough to recommend it, we're Soli to say.

The Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 3XL impressed us with its clever technology and excellent photo-taking capabilities so we're expecting big things from the Google Pixel 4XL. Come with us as we put the latest Android smartphone to the test.
The Google Pixel 4XL is a brilliant smartphone for those who put 'excellent photo quality' at the top of their 'must-have' list. Images have always been great from Pixel smartphones and this is still the case with the Pixel 4XL with only the odd...

Google's Pixel 4 XL is a powerful and smart Android phone and it delivers an excellent screen, a killer camera, intuitive software, and helpful hands-free gestures, but it falters on battery life, struggling to go a full day.
Excellent cameras ; Great performance ; Bright, sharp, and smooth 6.3-inch screen ; Face Unlock is fast ; Genuinely helpful, smart software
Battery life isn't great ; Barely any apps support Face Unlock ; Paltry 64GB of storage
