This combination looks quite refreshing and premium at the same time. There is new Google logo at the back of phone. The phone is actually made by HTC. But there is no HTC branding on the phone unlike Nexus phones. Now, this means Google is going full premium. Google wants to be like Apple. The phone has headphone jack (Hurray!)at the top and USB type- C port at the bottom for charging and a fingerprint scanner on the back. The Google pixel will be available in different color options like black, blue, and silver. The blue color is US exclusive.
The Google Pixel has 5 inch screen while the Google XL has 5.5 inch screen . Both the screen are Amoled Screens. The smaller 5-inch version has Full HD resolution while Bigger Pixel XL has Quad HD resolution. The screen of the new smartphones will have excellent contrast and very deep black levels. This is due to screen being Amoled. However to check whether the new smartphone screen is as good as Samsung mobile screens, we might have to wait a little more.

While the DXO Mark rating is not the absolute benchmark, but this does tell how much importance Google has paid to camera of the phone.

Same trend is followed by other big smatphone companies like Samsung, Apple, HTC etc. here’s also very intricate, gyroscope-based video stabilization on board, however there’s no optical image stabilization for stills.The new Google Pixel camera may be among the best smartphone camera ever.
