Google Pixel XL 32GB - Quite Black

You no longer have to wait for a phone made by Google itself. The late Nexus product line is now superseded by the original Pixel XL model series, whose unconventional design will definitely get under your skin. The phone's body, made entirely of aluminium, is complemented by an elegant piece of polished glass around the rear-facing camera, which makes it truly stand out. It runs the newest operating system Android 7.1 Nougat embellished with a new graphical user interface that is seamlessly and completely linked to the Google Assistant. Supplied together with the phone is unlimited cloud storage for photos as well as videos up to 4K.

Key features

• A phone completely designed by Google
• A clean Android operating system with guaranteed updates to the latest version
• Unlimited cloud storage for photos and 4K video
• One of the best smartphone cameras on the market
• Full support for Google Assistant and Google Daydream virtual reality

A first-class visual experience 

The phone sports a stunning 5.5" AMOLED display with QHD resolution. It will blow its competition out of the water with a fantastic fineness of 534ppi. To make it durable under all circumstances, the screen is coated with a Gorilla Glass 4 protective film. Thanks to its rounded corners and a thickness of only 7.3-8.5mm, the Pixel XL is very comfortable to hold and use.

One of the highest-rated smartphone cameras

One of the highlights of this phone is surely its rear-facing camera which defies the current trend of utilising dual sensors. Still, Google boasts that the camera has earned 89 points from the DxOMark expert server, which is the highest score ever obtained. The 12.3 megapixel camera comes with a 1.55 micron pixel sensor and an f/2.0 aperture. Helping to capture the best pictures possible is the enhanced HDR+ feature. Additionally, the device's advanced electronic image stabilisation lets you capture unprecedented-quality video.

Complete integration of new Google services

Together with the Pixel product line, Google has also introduced its new Google Assistant, and those two have immediately become inseparable. Just say the magic words "OK Google", and the virtual assistant powered by artificial intelligence will activate instantaneously. It is already enormously useful for everyday activities, and Google promises further rapid evolutionary steps. For the time being, however, the Google Assistant is only compatible with the English language.

Transitioning to Pixel XL is a piece of cake

Do you plan on switching from a different phone or even an entirely different platform? Then there is absolutely no reason to worry about losing your data. Google has developed a unique Switching process that, using the supplied adapter, will transfer the entire contents of your old Android device and almost everything from your old iPhone to the Pixel XL.
