I really find it much more improved after upgrading to Android 10! Before the switch, there were several hard kills, even of foreground app. E.g. playing Pokemon Go and listening to Spotify, Android would kill Spotify even if the music was running.

No matter what I do, my 3 XL constantly kills Garmin connect and Deezer while using camera app. It's very frustrating. I saw a video on YouTube about where 2 XL don't has this issue
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] devsk:
I never had any issues with Ram mgmt on Pixel3 until about a week ago. Suddenly, out of the blue, I am seeing complete lock up when I launch camera app or firefox. The only way to use these apps is to first Clear All (which is annoyingly to the extreme left of the task switcher).

Both my XL and my wife's 3 are exhibiting the exact same symptoms: start few apps (phone, messaging, photos, firefox) and launch camera, and boom: lockup. Clear All, and camera works fine.

What changed in last week or so?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] devsk:
I have some awesome news!!! The Oct patchset fixes the Ram mgmt issue on Pixel devices for good. Looks like it was a leak in System UI.

I have tried to reproduce my bug and I can start as many apps as I want and it does not lock up anymore. You can refer

https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/pixel/2019-10-01

for more details.

Edit: I could keep about 20 apps, including camera, firefox, whatsapp, slack, gmail, messages, photos, play store, amazon shopping and so on. They stay put!! Awesome!

[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] EclipseGST20:
Just dropping this here if it helps anybody. I've had the P3XL for about 6 months and I was happy with it BUT I was also curious about the Note10+. I had for 2 days and took it back lol. The note has a lot of things going for it however I consider myself a casual user. I value the camera too much. I took some photos of my 18mo old daughter and maaannnnn it's not even close. So if anybody is curious or debating between the PXL3 or the Note10+ and photos of your kids, pets or moving objects are of importance to you, go with the Pixel. Alot of YouTube reviewers only show comparisons of STILLS.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] mafy31:
2 days is not enough to learn how to use it... Maybe you had to decide fast to return, but you missed something i think.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] EclipseGST20:
No, 2 days was enough for me to know. And I'm only speaking about point n shoot auto mode, my fault, should've been specific. In those 2 days I took a lot of pictures of my daughter (who refuses to sit still) and MOST pics were blurred(outside daytime, inside w/lights on, no lights, with selfie camera). I really did wanna keep it. Maybe for those that know how to use Pro mode*shrug*
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] mafy31:
I hear you, that's a problem with the software on note10/10+. From what i've seen so far it uses minimal ISO to reduce the grain, but then the shutter speed is not optimal.

In pro mode it would have been enough for you to lock speed outside to whatever is comfortable to get a sharp shot on a moving object or person (say, 1/250 for a test outside for example on your baby) and let ISO on AUTO (and all other settings AUTO as well). Outside day light most of the time AUTO mode uses ISO 50 and reduces shutter speed... which is great for landscapes and stills, but not for kids.

Camera FPS

Can anyone confirm if the camera records in 60fps or any higher when on "auto frame/sec"? It's weird that they don't let you just choose...
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] scandalousk:
Only records in 60fps when there's enough light.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] mazerob:
The Pixel 3Xl camera is the best I think when it comes to Video quality even a Youtuber called Booredatwork.com Compared the Note 9 and Pixel 3 XL side by side in which you can clearly see that the Pixel 3 XL is far better than the Note9.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] stmm:
How'd you know for sure? Would be at least nice if they included some fps counter somewhere. It makes me feel uneasy when recording since I don't know how much frames it's actually recording in...
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] mazerob:
Yes it will record in 6o fps in Auto

I took a video outside the house in a sunny day with Auto

In which the rate was

Frame Rate: 59.20 fps

Minimum Frame Rate: 5.009 fps

Maximum Frame Rate: 60.341 fps

which was a six sec video.

(Couldn't resist) This app works GREAT!!! I have had reminders comming in every night this week, I have only had it since earlier this week, so I can't say anything on the 'reminder for every episode' part, but the reminders do come in via texting reliably enough. The only 'bug' I have noticed at this point is that the texts come in doubled, so I think this will only affect people that pay for texting. I would suggest unlimited texting and data for this app.

Issue in Charging Google Pixel 3 XL 128 GB Just Black

I have bought Google Pixel 3 XL 128 GB. I have reported charging relates issue (taking 3 hours for full charge) mere after 2 days of use on November 8th 2018. After 3 weeks of pathetic service of pickup and diagnosis, google support team saying your device is now taking 1 hour 30 minutes to charge fully and this is fast charging !!! I am Google Pixel 1 device user also, my this device takes less than 1 hour to full. As per Google support team Google have not mentioned officially meaning of fast charging. If on pone while charging if it is displaying charging rapidly then we need to assume phone supports fast charging this is Google support teams "logical" explanation to me. I made mistake to upgrade to pixel 3 XL. Be careful while opting for Pixel devices. I am one of the earliest adopter of Pixel device and now facing this issue. Total disappointment by Google's support and no reply on twitter from Google India and Made by Google
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] isthatxavier:
I can't understand how fast it charges from 0% to 10 at around 35watts but then it slows down at 22-25watts until it reaches 35% or something. Then it slows down at anything between 15-18watts...

Can't Google just let it charge at at least 25watts?

[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] Kreuger:
In regards to wireless chargers, I've heard you can only get it to fast charge using the Pixel Stand because of something in the software that they've done. Does anyone know about this? Surely there must be a file we can change with root access.

Why is it so difficult to make so fast charge at every phone?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] xDontStarve:
The phone gets hot if you fastcharge, which degrades battery. Why do you think apple took so long to make fast charging? It's bc they want their customers phone to last and use more apple services, so the longer the battery holds, the better, therefore they didn't use fast charge.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] rmclark12:
I should've saved a screenshot last night, but I had just over 6 hours SOT with 16 hours off of the charger. That's with moderate use throughout the day with heavy use at night. I know “picture or it didn't happen". I will definitely take a screenshot at the end of the day to compare.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] jimv1983:
I sure hope that includes doing some kind of battery intense task like playing games otherwise that's pretty unimpressive. When my Pixel 2 XL was brand new 5 hours screen on time during non-battery intense things like browsing on wifi I could easily get that same 5 hours screen on time with 16 hours off the charger and still be at like 40-45%. It looks like the combination of bigger screen, higher resolution and smaller battery really makes a noticeable difference. Even more than I expected.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] rmclark12:
This is with mostly browsing and YouTube. I usually have more usage later at night. I also played a little Elder Scrolls Legends, which is very much a battery draining game.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] markwebb:
As I do more testing, it appears this phone drains faster than the XL2 in both scenarios. I'll keep testing and post screenshots. I'm hesitant to return my XL2 as a trade-in.

I forgot to plug up last night so this morning I decided top just ride it out and see what I can get as far as screen time.

I find that the battery doesn't last quite as long as my pixel xl.... Probably due to the fact that the screen isn't as bright so I have to keep it on max brightness during the day. Didn't have the screen issue on my pixel xl though.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Real Life Review] RevoWution:
A week and a bit with my brand new 3 XL and I have the same observations too. My 2 XL seemed to have less idle battery drain. Both phones have been rooted & running their latest respective ElementalX kernels.

Have been having a few nagging issues with the 3 XL too which I never experienced with the 2 XL. It refused to connect to my car bluetooth the other morning until I restarted the phone, and the lockscreen screen on/off animations are painfully slow and laggy 80% of the time too...

Really quite disappointed with the battery life, tbh.

I had a P20 Pro until a few weeks ago - I know that's a massive battery but the Pixel 3 XL doesn't even come close. I get maybe 4hrs SOT.

Most disappointing though is the drain when idle - seems to lose about 2% an hour. With the P20 Pro I could leave it off charge overnight and it would only lose about 2% in total.

I have been with google phones for the last 5 years.

With the pixel line, I have never been so happy with my battery, specially pixel 2 xl. Battery would last 1.5 to 2 days...

However, with the 3, at the end of the day I had 39%, on a day I did not use the phone except for 10 sms, quick stocks check, 2 emails, no phone calls, 15 minutes of music with bt headphones in the metro.

Last night, I put it in safe mode, charged it. Took away from the charger at 6am, checked emails. At 8am, I had 90%.

Removed from safe mode at 8. Checked some messages, spoke for 10 minutes over the phone, checked emails and stocks. It is now 9:20am and my battery is at 80%

Not good. I am really disappointed.

If you have yours, please let me know how you feel about it.

I did see one youtuber complaining about his battery, I am afraid mine is defective. If not, I want to go back to the pixel 2 xl.
