Google Hardware Guides


The Pixel range from Google brings a lot of nice features to the world of
smartphones and tablets. There is also the bonus of getting to use the
very latest version of Android as soon as it is released, in the way it was
designed to be seen and used.

The Google Pixel


Hardware


Google Pixel 3a
Key Features: Offers an extraordinary camera, fast-charging battery,
top tier security and the helpful Google Assistant built in. Capture better
pictures with Night Sight; you’ll never want to use your flash again.
Night Sight lets you capture rich detail and colour, even in the dark.
Pixel’s extraordinary camera is perfect for all your moments. Take flawless
photos with portrait mode. Capture beautiful portraits that focus on
your subject as the background fades into a blur. Keep everyone in
focus. Motion Auto-Focus will make sure that the people and pets in
your shot stay sharp as you snap away.
Do more with the Google Assistant; Send texts, find answers, get
commute times and more - all with a simple squeeze or just by using
your voice. Charges fast, lasts all day. Work, play, stream and get more
done with a powerful battery that charges quickly and lasts all day
(approximate battery life based on a mix of talk, data, standby, mobile
hotspot and use of other features, with always-on display turned off ).
An active display or data usage will decrease battery life.
Final thoughts: A fantastic camera on a great entry-level phone.

Google Pixel 3


Key Features: Capture the perfect shot every time, get things done
with the Google Assistant, enjoy an all-day battery and more. Pixel 3
comes with a battery that charges fast and can last up to all day. It’s even
smart enough to shut down the apps that you don’t use to keep you
going for longer.
Get everyone in the picture with Group Selfies - no selfie stick
required. Snap portraits like a pro with Portrait Mode. Capture smiles,
not blinks with Top Shot, for a great photo every time. And save all your
favourite moments with free, unlimited online photo storage.
Flip your Pixel 3 face down and go from Bzzz to Shhh in an
instant. It will automatically turn on Do Not Disturb and hide all
your notifications, so you can focus on what matters most. Use the
wind-down mode to turn the screen to grey-scale and get ready for
a good night’s sleep.
Final thoughts: A large leap in quality over the Pixel 2, a must.
