Phone came as advertised, camera works great and pictures are crisp. No issues with any lag or slowness. Great value for price paid
by Alex Milne
I bought it for its good camera for taking pictures indoors, in low light and tight spaces. The pictures look very good and the device has met my expectations.

En verdad el mejor teléfono que he tenido, el único detalle es la pila, le dura medio día de uso continuó.
Es muy rápido, la fotos que realiza son bellísimas y su tamaño es ideal para bolsillos. Planeó seguir comprando los pixel pero serían los modelos más recientes.

I spent a few weeks researching phones and ended up going for this one. Did the new release and pre-order deal inform that decision? Certainly. But that wasn’t the only factor, and after 2 days, I have no buyer’s remorse (yet).
The contents of the box are basic – you get a charging cable and a USB port to allow the transfer of data from your old phone, and that’s it. No headphones, no dongle, no USB-C to USB cable.
The phone is simple, elegant, and light. And that last is not insignificant. Among flagship phones, it’s one of the smallest and lightest around, and it fits very neatly in my pocket with minimal bulk. In fact, it’s been some time since I had a phone I could comfortably leave in the pocket of my pants while sitting down.
The interface is smooth and fast, and while there may be slightly better screens on the more expensive flagship models, it’s plenty sharp enough for me. Motion sense it is a bit of a gimmick at this stage – not many app use it yet and it isn’t 100% reliable, but it’s nice to be able to vaguely waft at my alarm in the morning to snooze it. It just takes less mental energy at a time when my mental energy reserves are at their lowest. It’s been reliable enough so far.
Another cool new feature is live caption – instant subtitles on any media the phone is playing. I tested this while watching a Thursday Night Football NFL game, and it worked well enough. The feed was a little slow and occassionally struggled with names (Case Keenum was regularly referred to as case kingdom and Stefon Diggs confused it no end, but it got most of the other names right). I often stream football with the volume off and will make good use of this feature.
The main event, though, is the camera, and it doesn’t disappoint. Yes, there’s no wide angle lens, but the basic camera is fairly wide already. If you want full field-of-view that distorts the edges and the verticals, then maybe an iPhone11 is better, but early tests seem to vindicate Pixel’s decision to go for ‘telephoto’ (2x zoom) instead – the zoom is excellent and the portrait mode blows most of the competition out of the water. Images are sharp, colors are represented well and the software allows you to achieve a finer finish than anyone should really expect from the sort of lens and sensor a phone can carry. The photos added to this review show night sight, 8x zoom on the staute of liberty, and a couple of pictures using portrait mode (my cat, and a macro style photo which might be my favouite so far)
Battery life is generally listed as the biggest negative of the Pixel 4, but it’s been fine for me. I did reduce the frame refresh rate to 60Hz and put it on dark mode (Makes no real difference to me anyway). With those changes, I was able to do 1 hour web surfing, stream an hour of video, spend 1 hour reading an e-book, plus half and hour taking photos, and half an hour listening to music over bluetooth, and at the end of the day I still had 28% battery left. All around, fairly comfortable. If you’re not a high-intensity user and you’re happy with dark mode and a normal refresh rate, battery shouldn’t be a deal breaker.
Overall, I wanted a small, light phone with an excellent camera. Now, I have one.

Great phone, I have had it know about year and a half. Works great easy to read, and its not big, takes very good pictures, recording is great , as I record some music that I play. Google did a great job on this 4a smart phone.

When the new Pixel 4 was released I took a look at my two-year-old Pixel 2 and wondered if I really needed to upgrade, given what a great phone it had been, and still is. Giving in to a bit of retail therapy is easy, so I did.
It’s an expensive business getting a Pixel phone in this country (New Zealand) since it’s a buy from Amazon in the US, shipping to the other end of the world, paying GST (our sales tax) converted to NZ dollars added up to $1,550.
Was it worth it? Let’s take a look.
** Edit: After nearly a year, I just love this phone, absolutely rock-solid even with over a hundred apps installed, I’m revising from 4 to 5 stars **
I’ve owned a lot of android phones and had the Pixel 4 for a few months now and it’s performed pretty much flawlessly, both the software and the hardware – as I expected it would. I really like Google’s own implementation of their Android O/S – it’s clean and just works. There are some UI annoyances that I’ll come to later. Other makes (Huawei, Samsung) all seem to be clogged up with unnecessary and buggy extra apps and take years to get Android updates through. I get Google’s updates within days of release and I’ve never had a bad one.
In their attempt to regain a handful of pixels from the bottom of the screen, Google have removed the Home and Back on-screen buttons and replaced them with gestures. This has or will probably occur on other makes of phone as Android 10 rolls out. The new gesture needs a swipe from the bottom edge (home) or from either side (back), and I pretty much hate it. ** Edit: You can turn that off and now I like it **
If you miss the edge (it’s tricky if you have a case with a raised edge) then you end up swiping the app off to somewhere unwanted. If you get a bit close to the edge when you’re scrolling within an app, you suddenly go home or back. It doesn’t happen to me very often but when it does happen it’s infuriating. Hint: When buying a case, look for one with a low profile on the screen side – though that won’t protect the screen quite as well.
As for other features, I’m not so sure there’s a lot to say. The main one is the face recognition lock which I’ve turned on and also the “Keep phone unlocked while I’m looking at it” option. I like that one, it saves the phone going black when I’m taking my time reading, or something. It’s also nice to just pick up the phone and look at it, it’s so natural, quick and easy. People seem unduly worried about the security of this feature, I’m not sure why except maybe for the unlock while you’re asleep. If someone is in a position to do that, then they are also in a position to do many awful things to me and additionally, the banking and other vulnerable stuff on my phone has a further level of security.
The screen is up to par, and the glass is nice not picking up oily finger goop like all my others did after a while. I’ve given up on screen protectors, my phones are pretty safe being mostly in my pocket, and I like the feel of the screen. Feels like a solid build to me without being too heavy, though it’s heavier than the Pixel 2 and has quite a bit more screen, mostly in the length.
People seem to rave about the camera and I agree it’s good, but so was the Pixel 2 so the step up doesn’t seem huge to me – but then I’m no camera buff. The Pixel 2 was a bit better at close-ups which I do a lot of when working with electronics. The Pixel 4 can be zoomed up to 8x but can’t focus closer than about 120mm which limits its use as a macro camera. The P2 was good down to about 60mm. (4.7″ and 2.4″)
Sound is surprisingly good watching a video. There’s nothing at the bass end but that’s to be expected in such a small body. The volume is good and the sound spread is wide though perhaps a bit overdone. I’m not in a cathedral. I regularly use speakerphone and also Sennheiser Bluetooth headphones, and they perform very well on both phone calls and music. Bluetooth, WiFi, and 4G connectivity all seem solid.
Battery life is marginal, my only real complaint about the hardware. An overnight charge to 100% would all be gone by 7pm if I wasn’t quite careful. To counter this I bought a charger for the car so I can give it a commute-time top-up and things are better now. Wireless charging is cool and Qi chargers all seem to work fine. Makes charging in the car a breeze with a charger built into the holder. Wireless charging is not fast, about 0.9 amps, compared to a fast charger which charges at nearly 3 amps (~1 hr full charge time) but it turns the phone into a hotplate and could affect battery life.
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Active 2 Smartwatch (SM-R810) and paired it up easily with the Pixel via Bluetooth, but with a fair amount of convoluted messing about with the Samsung apps got it all working reasonably well though it’s a bit crazy and somewhat buggy. I sure wish Samsung would produce practical software like Google does. I did a review on the watch too.
So was it worth it? Probably not, but mostly because my old Pixel 2 was such a nice reliable workhorse that has never slowed down even with 150 or so apps. Every other phone I ever owned has slowly ground to a standstill. I use quite a lot of apps.
Am I glad I bought it? For sure, but I just can’t part with the Pixel 2 so now that one’s a spare.

It just has one flaw just the battery finishes VERY fast
