On October 16, it was reported that Google recently officially released the Pixel 4 series of mobile phones overseas, namely Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL. The slogan of these two models is "90Hz screen and dual cameras", which will be launched at the end of 2019. Although the sales volume of Google mobile phones has not been among the best, it is still regarded by many people as the benchmark of Android, which represents Google's view on Android phones.
The screen is almost the only thing that distinguishes these two phones. The Google Pixel 4 uses a 5.7 inch OLED screen with a resolution of 2220 * 1080, while the XL uses a 6.3 inch display with a resolution of 3200 * 1800. Their aspect ratio is 19:9. There is no gap like water drops or bangs on the screen, and a lot of hardware is installed on the forehead.
The screen refresh rate of the two new models is 90Hz. In order to save power, they operate at 60Hz under normal circumstances. Their screens also support HDR. The phone will also adjust the color of the screen according to the changes in the surrounding light to get the best look and feel.
Pixel 4 XL has the same camera hardware as Pixel 4. The main camera has 12 million pixels, supports dual core focusing, and has optical and electronic anti shake. The unit pixel size is 1.4 μ m, and the aperture is f/1.7. The telephoto lens is 16 million pixels, and the unit pixel size is 1.0 μ m. It also supports optical and electronic anti shake, and supports 2x optical zoom. There is a third hardware on the back, not a camera, but a spectrum+flicker sensor.
The biggest impact on photos is Google's unique algorithm. The new camera uses the new Pixel Neural Core. The camera app supports real-time HDR+, and displays near film effects in the viewfinder, which helps users adjust exposure. The new camera also supports double exposure, and the main camera can shoot up to 4K 30fps video or 120fps 1080P slow motion video.
The front camera of the two mobile phones is 8 million pixels, and combined with the 3D structured light sensor, it can be used for face unlocking. It supports background virtualization photography. This mobile phone does not support fingerprint unlocking.
There is also a Soli radar on the top of the screen, which can track the user's gestures. When the user approaches the phone, the screen will automatically light up. It supports the space gesture. Google also emphasizes that the space gesture can be used in all light conditions.
The new machine also supports voice assistant. The user can say "Hey, Google" to wake it up. The Active Edge function also returns, and users can trigger certain functions by squeezing the phone.
The battery capacity of Pixel 4 is only 2800mAh, while that of XL is 3700mAh. They support 18W fast charging, 10W wireless charging, Type C interface, and no 3.5mm headphone hole.
There are no performance highlights. They are equipped with Snapdragon 855 instead of the latest Snapdragon 855 Plus, with 6GB of running memory and 64GB and 128GB of body storage. Note that Pixel 4 does not support memory card expansion.
Pixel 4 series adopts aluminum middle frame, and the surface is sanded. The back is covered with glass, and there are three colors: black, white and orange. Orange is a limited edition. They support IP68 waterproof and are equipped with stereo speakers.
Pixel 4 series has been pre-sales in several regions at present. It will be shipped in the United States on October 22, Europe on October 28, and Australia and Canada on October 21. Pixel 4 64GB sells for $800 (about RMB 5675), and Pixel 4 XL 64GB sells for $900 (about RMB 6385). Their 128GB versions are $100 more expensive than 64GB versions.
