Finally Google officially launched Google Pixel 4 and Google Pixel 4 XL. Located in New York, the two Google smartphones were introduced by Google hardware division boss Rick Osterloch. In addition to launching the latest Pixel, the "Made by Google" event also launched a number of other devices such as airbuds, routers, and notebooks. The latest Pixels are not much different than the screen size and battery capacity. And finally both are equipped with two rear cameras with a resolution of 12 MP and 16 MP for telephotons. Google Pixel 4 is equipped with a Snapdragon 855 chipset. Combined with 6 GB RAM and 64 GB or 128 GB storage memory.
As is well known that Google Pixel is one of the best smartphone cameras. Likewise Google Pixel 4 which now comes with two cameras unlike its predecessor which still uses a single camera.
12 MP resolution main camera that is paired with a 16 MP telephoto camera. The telephoto camera is capable of zooming up to 2x optically. There is no ultra wide camera on Pixel 4 like any other cellphone. Because according to Google, telephoto lenses are far more important than ultra wide lenses.
During this time Google favored the software rather than the hardware to produce the best camera. In Pixel 4, in addition to enhancements in hardware, software has also experienced several improvements.
One of them is improving night mode or the term Google Night Sight. Where besides being able to take good pictures still in low light conditions, can now take pictures of the starry sky at night very clearly. Now Andab can become an astrophotographer by only using a cell phone.
For video recording with this new smartphone it can be up to 4K quality. What's new about video recording is the transcript feature in real time. Where the text will appear immediately on the video when recording.
On the front you get an 8 MP selfie camera with f / 2.0 opening with a 90-degree field of view. The front camera is equipped with an auto HDR feature.
In the device sector, Google Pixel 4 is equipped with a Snapdragon 855 flagship chipset from Qualcomm. Actually this chipset is not the most recent from Qualcomm. Because there is now Snapdragon 855+ embedded in several other smartphones. Snapdragon 855 is certainly fast and supports several new technologies.
Snapdragon 855 chipset is combined with 6 GB RAM to support performance. 64/128 GB storage memory supported. Relatively not too big. And unfortunately, there is also no micro SD slot for external memory.
To unlock the device, Pixel 4 only uses face unlock. Unlike other smartphones that use a fingerprint on the back body or on the screen. Google claims their face unlock is much faster. Even faster than the face ID on the iPhone.
The battery sector is the most criticized thing of Google Pixel 4. Because Pixel 4 is only powered by a 2800 mAh battery. Certainly very far from other flagship smartphones powered by 4000mAh batteries. Google claims with a battery of that size can still be used all day. However, of course it needs testing first. For charging the battery, it has been supported by fast charging 18 Watts. And also supports wireless charging.
Pixel 4 runs on the latest Android operating system, Android 10. There are several new features on Andorid 10. Such as dark mode that is more comfortable for the human eye, focus mode so that users are not disturbed, and live caption that is able to load text when a video or podcast is playing . In addition to these features, which is the main concern of Android OS 10 is a matter of security. Where application permits have become more stringent.
There are several new features embedded in Google Pixel 4. Among them the most attention is motion sense. A feature that allows users to carry out commands such as forwarding music playback, rejecting phone calls, or snoozing alarms without touching the device.
Just simply moving your hand in the air. This ability can not be separated from the radar sensor mounted on the top bezel called Soli. Who is able to read hand gestures. Unfortunately this motion sense feature is only able to do basic commands.
In addition to motion sense, the Google Assistant feature also experienced a number of improvements. The new assistant is able to carry out quite a variety of commands such as searching for photos, sending, and also doing schedule reminders.
Pixel 4 screen has also increased with fresh rates up to 90 Hz. The 5.7-inch OLED screen is protected by Gorilla Glass 5. This device is also waterproof and dust with IP68 certificate.
