PIXEL 3XL HITMAN 2 BLUETOOTH

In fact, the newer phone actually has a slightly smaller battery than the older models. The Pixel phones have rarely exceeded a day’s battery life, and it seems that tradition is set to continue with the Pixel 3 XL. All three offer silky smooth performance in day-to-day tasks, but the Pixel 3 XL is more future-proof, and capable of handling more advanced games. While the Snapdragon 835 and Snapdragon 821 chips in the Pixel XL 2 and Pixel XL are still powerful chips, they pale when compared to the modern chip in the Pixel 3 XL. The Pixel 3 XL is equipped with the super-powerful Snapdragon 845, giving top-level, smooth performance. Looking for a powerful phone? You’re in the right place.

Just for grins, since I have my old Pixel & Pixel 2, I ran a voice test on the three, and the 3xl was the clear loser. It is 'better'if the case you use is one of those soft “rubber” ones that makes intimate contact with phone, but unfortunately shock proof hard cases tend to intentionally use an air gap to add to the “g” force tolerance capability. The adapter is functional, but it also has the ability (if exposed to a physical impact) to damage the charging capability of the phone.Īnd the back of the phone being used as the speaker is common to all three versions of this phone. It still leaves me with several pairs of (some of them a bit pricey) earbuds designed to be with a phone (they all have a mic so are usable as a “headset”) that are nearly useless.

And I realize eliminating that “universal” headphone port was necessary to make the case water right. Yes, all 3 versions of the 3 come with USB-C to headphone adapters. We’ll see if the readership here is small enough that it stays. I tried posting comments / review on Amazon and a couple other sites, but my reviews are either never approved or deleted for “unfair / impolite” comments about the manufacturer.

I took to always using a bluetooth device, but it doesn’t hold a charge as long as the phone itself and occasionally I may set it down and (almost) leave it behind.Ĭan’t figure this out - but alarms / ring tones / notifications, etc can easily be made VERY LOUD but phone call voice - nope. Or hold the BACK of the phone to your ear (oh that is intuitive, yeah?) and show the rest of the world the contact info of the call you are making. It works “OK” on naked phones, but if you like a protective case on your phone, you will have to put it in speakerphone mode just to be able to hear it. To keep it water tight, tey use the flat center area on the back of the phone as a speaker of sorts. Good thing too, because it seems to be difficult to pair with most devices, especially if you use a protective case.ģ) There isn’t a “speaker”. Since the 2 I bought were “new / old stock” they came not only with the branded charger, but also a set of bluetooth earbuds that work acceptably well. Also wired charging to 85% in under 45 minutes with supplied Google USB-C charger.ġ) If you hold your phone by the edges near the bottom, you will constantly be activating the “Google Assistant” when you don’t want to.Ģ) Headphones / earbuds bluetooth only.

Because there is no headphone port, microSD slot, or any other opening to allow water inside.Ģ) As of this writing they can be easily updated to Android 11, latest build (actually it will nag you to upgrade / update). I bought 2 of the Google Pixel 3XL’s from Woot a few months back, they were / are good phones overall for the price, and the following are a few comments on things I found during the 4 months I’ve been using them.ġ) Water “safe” Don’t take it into the pool or lake, but a little rain or casual splash will not be an issue.
