The phone has a great camera and if you want a phone that has stock Android with no annoying bloatware forced upon you, the Pixel 4 is a pretty good option.

Not sure if I would pay full retail but at the price on black Friday well worth the buy

I really enjoy this phone. Very solid and fully capable of doing any job!

The great thing about Pixel devices is that you can expect the software to be top notch and the pixel 4 doesn’t disappoint there. Cameras are great. Day to day use is great. I have been able to get through my day without having to worry about the battery. Screen is beautiful especially with the 90hz refresh.

Getting the AT&T version made sure I got the important VOLTE and WIFI calling features. These make a huge difference in day to day calling. I would suggest you stick with the carrier version unless rooting and unlocking the bootloader is a must for you.(VOLTE should work fine with the unlock version. However WIFI calling will not)

What I miss and miss a lot is the fingerprint reader. Face unlock works fine but I much prefer using fingerprint. It not only feels more secure but most apps don’t support face unlock yet.

Motion Sense(project soli) is pretty useless. I turned it completely off. Google may be able to make this feature better with future updates. Until then I’d appreciate not being a guinea pig for unfinished projects.

If you want a phone that will just work and that has 3 years of updates this is the phone for you.

Phone is great. A much needed upgrade from my only S9+. Everything is snappy and having the latest Android is awesome. Only issue has been this green tint during dark mode when in low brightness. But other than that cannot complain.

This has been an interesting Pixel year (not to say that each year hasn’t been an interesting year for the Pixel lineup). The XL model is what you’d expect: streamlined Android experience with some extra goodies like live captions, voice recorder transcriptions, and even crash detection. However, these goodies that were once exclusives are available for pretty much any recent Android device. Speaking of “exclusives”, timely Android OS updates/security updates used to be THE perk. Now other OEMs are beating Google to the punch. As of this writing, there are still Pixel 4 users who still do not have the December Security Update. What I’m saying is that much of the allure that once pulled me towards the Pixel lineup just doesn’t exist anymore. Sure, the camera is great for still photography, but video is still lagging behind Samsung and Apple. The battery definitely does NOT last me until the end of the day, and though the 90Hz display is great, the overall brightness of the screen is sub par. I am looking to return this phone and wait for the Pixel 4a, which will bring all of the best parts of Pixel without the heavy price tag.

As far as I am concerned, the camera on the phone is by far the most important feature. The pixel 4 XL continues google’s dominance in accurate photo capture.

Ram, processor, etc are all just secondary considerations for me, but the pixel 4 XL never feels slow in any way.

Lots of critical reviews about battery life. However, I have no intention of wasting 5 hours of my day staring at my phone. Significant improvement for me vs pixel 3xl with a similar use pattern. Never had a problem making it through the day.
