With the curtain call of the Nexus series that has been with us for six years, the new pro son series Pixel has officially met us. Its biggest feature is expensive.
This time we introduce the American version of Pixel XL, model G-2PW2100. The retail price of 32G version is up to 6000 yuan before the deadline.
The package, flat design, adopts a drawout design, which conforms to Google's simple style.
The first layer of the package is the mobile phone, which is wrapped with transparent protective film.
The second layer is the accessories of mobile phones. If you think the power adapter and data cable of this lens are all accessories of Pixel XL, you are wrong.
Like the Nexus 6P, the Pixel XL is equipped with two data cables conscientiously. One is the dual Type-C data cable connected to the adapter, and the other is the Type-A to Type-C interface data cable like other mobile phones, which is used to connect to the computer. In addition, it is equipped with a OTG Adapters and accessories are quite abundant.
The power adapter uses the PD charging standard and supports the same 5V 3A And new 9V 2A Charging standard（ USB-PD ）, manufactured by Dongguan Feihong Technology.
Type-A mouth is marked in blue, which is quite special. The wire itself is made of sufficient materials and solid workmanship.
We got Pixel XL Quite Black (Very black?) version, but the front panel is not very black, maybe it should be called dark gray. A 5.5 inch QHD standard AMOLED on the front has a ppi of 534, and the screen parameters are absolutely top level.
The earpiece adopts a recessed design, which is easy to accumulate dust. Compared with the Nexus 6P, the earpiece is no longer a speaker. Because the front panel is not black enough, the sensor hole position under the receiver is also obvious.
Pixel XL uses a 2.5D Corning Gorilla Generation 4 glass. The touch of the screen is quite good, but the radian is still not as exaggerated as that of the iPhone.
The mobile phone's border is not narrow, so users with small hands still have a little pressure to master it. In addition, the Pixel XL screen accounts for 75%, which is not particularly high, especially in the "forehead" and "chin" areas.
The body adopts an integrated metal design, and the frame surrounding the screen has a trim like many mobile phones. However, the Pixel series also has a slight sandblasting treatment on the trim part, which makes it look more textured.
On the right side of the phone is the key, and the power key is anti-skid. The key layout is the same as that of the previous generation Nexus.
There is a slot on the left side of the fuselage. From this angle, it can be seen that the back of the fuselage is not trimmed, but an arc shaped transition design is used. Although it looks rather stiff, it feels good. The maximum thickness of the whole machine is 8.5 mm.
The Pixel XL is also a single card design, which supports a nano SIM card.
Compared with the mediocrity of the front panel, the rear cover design of Pixel XL is a highlight. Different people have different opinions on whether the appearance is high or not, but the large area glass+metal splicing design has to be taken as a bold and special design.
The glass of the back cover has a certain radian. Some users said that the tolerance of the glass is relatively large, but the personality of the author is quite good, and the position fit with the metal seam is quite good.
Virgo may have collapsed after five consecutive openings. From left to right are Dual LED fill light , rear camera Laser assisted Focus module and noise reducing microphone.
Despite the small size of this camera, its sensor has a lot of advantages, Sony IMX378， 12.3 megapixel, 1/2.3 inch , unit pixel size 1.55 microns ， f/2.0 Aperture, similar configuration, we have seen on Xiaomi 5s, which is the largest sensor size among mainstream mobile phone cameras. Compared with the previous generation of IMX377 Phase focusing , and made more optimization for mobile phones. The parameters of this sensor are quite violent. The only thing you can complain about is the lack of optical anti shake.
There is a logo of "G" at the bottom, and HTC of the OEM left no information. The fuselage is made in Taiwan.
There is a 3.5mm headphone connector on the top of the fuselage. In addition, it can be seen that the antenna partition strip on the top of the fuselage is asymmetric.
There are two symmetrical openings at the bottom, the left is the speaker, the right is the microphone, and the middle is a Type-C connector, which supports PD Standard quick charge and USB3.0 。
Compared with the Nexus 6P of the previous generation, although the size is a circle smaller, the "chin" of the Pixel XL is more "touching" than that of the previous generation, and it is indeed the true story of HTC.
The back cover design has nothing in common except for the rear pressing fingerprint recognition. Fortunately, the sensor is also applicable to violence. Pixel XL flattens the camera.
