    Show off your Pixel 3 while keeping it safe with a clear case

    7 monthes ago - By Android Central

    The Google Pixel 3 is a beautifully crafted phone with a thin profile and an iconic look. It's only natural you'd want to show that off, but the Pixel 3 is also a phone with a glass back and a very high price tag, so you should really, really get a case on it. Thankfully, clear cases can keep your phone safe while showing it off for all the world to see.

    The Pixel 3 camera may not do 4K 60fps video, but it can switch frame rates for you. while you record

    7 monthes ago - By Phone Arena

    A casual chat with a Product Manager from Google has revealed one more fascinating nugget of new info around the exemplary Pixel 3 and 3 XL camera. Called automatic FPS switching, it decides for you at what frame rate to record video.
    This means that instead of fumbling with the settings menu in the camera app to pick between 30fps, 60fps, or other options, the camera's algorithms will pick the best option, depending on the scenes in front of the frame. Yes, that means that Google's new Pixel phones can switch the framerate mid-flight while you are recording, too, pretty...

    Pixel 3 or the larger Pixel 3 XL, which one would you get?

    7 monthes ago - By Phone Arena

    There is a very distinct size difference between the larger Pixel 3 XL and the smaller Pixel 3, stemming from their new display diagonals. Since the vast majority of their remaining spec are virtually identical, save for the battery capacities being 3430mAh and 2915mAh, respectively, Google makes your choice of handset very easy.
    The 6.3" panel of the XL model is with QHD+ resolution, putting an additional strain on the battery compared to the FHD+ resolution of the smaller Pixel 3, though the effect is likely to be significantly offset by the larger battery pack in ...

  • The best Google Pixel 3 and 3 XL screen protectors you can buy right now

    The best Google Pixel 3 and 3 XL screen protectors you can buy right now

    7 monthes ago - By Phone Arena

    Given that both of Google's latest and greatest phones - the Pixel 3 and 3 XL - sport expensive AMOLED displays with plastic substrates, their replacement price is not for the faint of heart, on top of the already high prices starting at $799.
    Granted, the phones sports Corning's Gorilla Glass 5 layer on top of their OLED display and a more reinforced frame, but at the same time, the screens have grown in size compared to their predecessors.
    That means they will be as prone to shattering if you drop them face-down on a hard surface as anything ...

    Pixel 3's ‘Super Res Zoom' still can't match Apple's iPhone XS camera

    7 monthes ago - By TheBoyGeniusReport

    Google finally unveiled the new Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL earlier this week, putting an end to all the leaks and rumors that have been flooding the web for months. For reasons that we've covered a dozen times by now (a shipment of Pixel 3 XL prototypes was allegedly stolen and sold on the black market) it felt like we knew just about everything there was to know about the company's third-generation Pixel phones long before they were unveiled on stage in New York City this past Tuesday. Of course, leaks never paint a complete picture and we learned plenty of new and interesting details during...

    Are you getting the Pixel 3 or Pixel 3 XL?

    7 monthes ago - By Android Central

    The regular Pixel 3 appears to have the popular vote so far.
    Google's new Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are both available for pre-order right now, and considering the many similarities between the two phones, it's shaping up to be a difficult decision to decide which one is worth buying over the other.
    On one hand, the regular Pixel 3 doesn't have an unsightly notch but does have a smaller display and battery. The Pixel 3 XL increases the screen size and battery capacity, but you're then left looking at that huge display cutout.
    Our form users are already going back and forth debating which is...
