but it's got like this knurling on it. It's ribbed for my pleasure. "Wayne's World" guys, have you seen it? If you're the type of person who runs their phone naked, this isn't so bad 'cause even if you're careful with your phone, one thing that happens, is it just falls out of your pocket. You put it in your shorts, you sit in the car and then it's so slippery that it just like works its way out and then suddenly, it's fallen onto the movie theater floor which was covered in sticky pop. This feels not that slippery, it's not as bad as glass. It has the kind of a soft touch, you wouldn't actually know that this is metal. It does have like a rubber kind of soft touch coating on it. I think it looks really cool and clean the way that it dips for that fingerprint reader then it comes back up, it looks pretty awesome, seamless. It only comes in one color, they're calling this, almost black? Because they have Just Black, last model was Just Black, I think this is almost black or blackish. It looks actually kind of green to me, kind of like how in "The Matrix" everything's green even when it's not. Subscribe to Carpool Critics. Another reason to get a Google Pixel phone rather than maybe even like a cheaper, or more feature complete Chinese phone, is that you get the Google features, so you got the Recorder app, which actually is useful. Basically, it just records audio but while it does it, it types out a transcript. And maybe that's not the most reliable transcript ever, especially if there's multiple people in the room, but what it does allow you to do is easily search your audio recording. And be like, what was the part where we talked about birthday cake? You type it in, oh, that's what they said about the cake. That's awesome, that's a Google First-Party App. They also have, and this is a lifesaver in today's spam-filled world, they have the Screen Call button. If someone calls you, you hit Screen Call, Google Assistant answers the phone and talks to them. And then when they respond, it types out what they're saying on the screen. Most scammers, as soon as I hit that button, they just leave and I don't even have to mess with that. And sometimes, when it is a number I don't recognize that turns out to be the dentist, you get to answer because I don't even have voicemail. Get rid of voicemail, get a Google phone. You are set, your life is way better. Let's take some pictures. Oh yeah, the depth. What the hell is going on here? Is this a bug? What the hell is happening? Are you seeing this? I've never had this before. Yeah, I do get some aliasing and lose some detail when I zoom all the way in. But when I go, even to like times two, it still looks very sharp. This is still a good camera. Oh, Linus! That is probably like NUMBER_TOKEN feet away from me. (imitates lens zoom) Still decent.
