Some Pixel 3 XL users have reported random notches displaying on the side of their screen. [48] [49]Call Screen is that rare feature that works so well and makes so much sense that you'll be amazed it hasn't been done before. In fact, it's already proved indispensable to me, after one incident in which I got rung up from a number I didn't recognize. Google Assistant asked for the caller's info, and when they responded, I found out it was actually my insurance company reaching out about an important claim. I was able to instantly jump in and take over the conversation from my Assistant. But if it weren't for Call Screen, I probably would have just declined the call. Because the Pixel 3 doesn't require a second lens to determine depth, it can perform Portrait Mode bokeh-style shots through its single rear-facing camera. Once again, the results are impressive; there's stronger color and contrast from Google's device, and the fabric in my colleague Caitlin's sweater is more in focus. However, the iPhone XS navigates the boundaries of the foreground better, which leads to less of the artifacting around Caitlin's hair that the Pixel 3 unfortunately left in.

Such 'merged' Raw files represent a major threat to traditional cameras. The math alone suggests that, solely based on sensor size, 15 averaged frames from the Pixel 3 sensor should compete with APS-C sized sensors in terms of noise levels. There are more factors at play, including fill factor, quantum efficiency and microlens design, but needless to say we're very excited to get the Pixel 3 into our studio scene and compare it with dedicated cameras in Raw mode, where the effects of the JPEG engine can be decoupled from raw performance.

The Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL are a pair of Android smartphones designed, developed, and marketed by Google as part of the Google Pixel product line. They collectively serve as the successors to the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL. [8] [9] They were officially announced on October 9, 2018 at the Made by Google event and released in the United States on October 18. [10] On October 15, 2019, they were succeeded by the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL. The Google Pixel series has rapidly become one of the most well respected Smartphone brands in the industry today, and for good reason. Read on to discover why. The Pixel 3 now has a 'Night Sight' mode which sacrifices the zero shutter lag and expects you to hold the camera steady after you've pressed the shutter button. When you do so, the camera will merge up to 15 frames, each with shutter speeds as low as, say, 1/3s, to get you an image equivalent to a 5 second exposure. But without the motion blur that would inevitably result from such a long exposure.Salman, Ali (October 11, 2018).

A refurbished Google Pixel 3 is a showcase of Google's great mobile phone technology, which certainly holds up even years since release. One of it's best features is its high quality screen. For gaming, it makes games appear vivid and lifelike, and the Snapdragon 845 means you will have less lags and a faster performance when gaming and switching between games and apps.Rather than simply rely on long exposures for low light photography, 'Night Sight' utilizes HDR+ burst mode photography to take usable photos in very dark situations. Previously, the Pixel 2 would never drop below 1/15s shutter speed, simply because it needed faster shutter speeds to maintain that 9-frame buffer with zero shutter lag. That does mean that even the Pixel 2 could, in very low light, effectively sample 0.6 seconds (9 x 1/15s), but sometimes that's not even enough to get a usable photo in extremely dark situations.
