still have an incredibly solid battery life years later even after the battery life deteriorates which makes this an insane quality of life improvement over previous models now when you look at the previous model the google pixel NUMBER_TOKEN aNUMBER_TOKENg and its specs and compare with the new pixel NUMBER_TOKENa with NUMBER_TOKENg you'll notice an odd thing that is seen between both generations the specs are largely the same as the same processor the same graphics chip the same storage the same ram the same girl glass NUMBER_TOKEN and the same camera actually they removed the laser autofocus but i haven't noticed a decline in performance there anyways if you're buying the latest generation of a phone you'd expect at least get an advancement in specs from the previous model but mostly this isn't the case this makes the next point a little more interesting because it's both a pro and a con at a price of NUMBER_TOKEN dollars which is NUMBER_TOKEN less than the previous model it can seem like both a great deal and not so great depending on how you look at it getting the same specs with only a NUMBER_TOKEN price cut can seem like it's well not that great of a deal it can actually seem like it's overpriced because so much of the guts of the phone are the same but on the other hand you're still getting a great phone that does the main things well has a good balance of quality of life features combined with a relatively affordable price especially compared to flagship devices now a little disclaimer i i know a lot of you who are not in the united states have tons and tons of options that are lower priced and have tons and tons of specs in america it's not that way so i'm just speaking from an american perspective plus i always say specs alone don't make the phone it's like getting a computer and having the best specs in the world and putting in a cardboard box it just doesn't make it a great experience having a price that's cheaper than not only the pixel NUMBER_TOKENa NUMBER_TOKENg but even earlier xl models like the NUMBER_TOKENaxo at launch by NUMBER_TOKEN is pretty nice this is made even better when you look at other aspects beyond the brain of the phone being largely the same some aspects that are greatly improved on the pixel NUMBER_TOKENa really cover some significant quality of life changes first instead of a polycarbonate or plastic build like previous models the pixel NUMBER_TOKEN has a metal build while also retaining that soft touch coating that still feels warm and calming to hold it does feel pretty nice but that gives it a nice feeling of sturdiness and half that is there that just wasn't there on previous models but despite it being made out of metal you probably want to protect your phone from drops or customize it so you can always get a skin or grip case from channel sponsor dbrand i love doing that it's just ridiculous see it's fine it's ridiculous you can find a link for it over in the description next to that like button now beyond just a metal build google has finally fixed the one thing that has always given me a reason to add a disclaimer and hesitate when suggesting a google pixel a series water and dust resistance with an ipNUMBER_TOKEN dust and water resistance we finally have a truly insane well-rounded film that gets the main things right and you can realistically use it for years at an affordable price now i have zero
START_SPONSOR_TOKEN skin or grip case from channel sponsor dbrand i love doing that it's just ridiculous see it's fine it's ridiculous you can find a link for it over in the description next to that like button END_SPONSOR_TOKEN
