  • storage it's just $3 a month. Click the link below in the description to learn more, and

  • huge thanks to LastPass for sponsoring this portion of the video.

  • Now it's time for the durability test.

  • Let's get started.

  • [Intro]

  • So the Pixel 4 is the most recent in Google's long line of smartphones. The Pixel lineup

  • is a continuation of the Nexus lineup back in the day. It's kind of supposed to be the

  • latest and greatest of what Android has to offer. You know, the pure experience. This

  • latest version though looks mostly just like Pixel tried to copy iPhone's homework, didn't

  • change anything, and still managed to get the answers wrong.

  • Inside the box we get the USB-CD/USB-C charging port, along with a regular USB adapter and

  • 18 watt charger. Same as the charger included with the iPhone 11 Pros. Most phones released

  • this year have either bezel-less displays or a small notch of some kind. The Pixel line

  • probably got its feelings hurt last year with so many jokes about the bathtub notch, so

  • it decided to just skip the notch entirely and go back to the bezels of 2017...that match

  • my 2 ½ year old Galaxy S8 perfectly. This would all be fine of course since you know,

  • function matters more than aesthetics, but the Apple homework that Pixel copied, yet

  • still got wrong, goes much deeper.

  • The square camera cutout, which takes up the same amount of space, is missing an entire

  • camera. I'll get to that more in a second. The Pixel 4 is kind of like thatwe have

  • food at homememe, but instead of having an iPhone at home, it's a Pixel 4. Let's get

  • going on that scratch test.

  • You know how this works. On Mohs scale of hardness, plastic, like on the Nintendo Switch,

  • scratches at a level 3. Glass would be a 5 or 6. And sapphire would be levels 8 or 9.

  • The Pixel 4 XL is using Gorilla Glass 5, and starts scratching at a level 6 with deeper

  • grooves at a level 7. Perfectly on par with the rest of the tempered glass covered smartphones

  • out there.

  • Now this large top bezel isn't for nothing. It does contain an 8 megapixel selfie camera

  • that films in 1080p, and it has a flush wire mesh protecting the interior top stereo speaker.

  • Along with some other face unlock sensors. Keep in mind that the Pixel 4's face unlock

  • still works with your eyes closed, which is an extremely creepy flaw. But most uniquely,

  • next to the speaker grill is a small underscreen radar system that can sense your hands and

  • wake up the phone before you even touch it. Kind of nifty. We'll have to take a look at

  • that little guy from the inside.

  • The Pixel 4 comes in 3 colors: black like you see here, along with a white and an orange.

  • The metal frame isn't anodized like most metal smartphones. Pixel is doing that same thick

  • kind of paint thing they've been doing on their last few phones. They call it a matte

  • finish hybrid coating. It's pretty thick stuff. Dropping your phone might cause it to chip

  • instead of just scratch. You can see all the flakes coming off of my razor. The SIM card

  • tray has a singular SIM slot. There's no expandable memory. It does have a rubber ring around

  • the opening to keep water out.

  • The Pixel 4 XL is ip68, but tested at 1.5 meters. Remember, the flagship iPhone 11 Pro

  • is also ip68 but tested at a much deeper 4 meters. If the Pixel 4 really wants to copy

  • the iPhone 11 Pro, then they definitely have a long way to go...and that's coming from

  • me.

  • The paint is thick enough to shave off. It also coats the volume rocker but not the power

  • button. The power button is a white accent made from plastic. Down at the bottom we still

  • have no headphone jack, but we do have the 18 watt fast charge capable USB-C charging

  • port.

  • There is a nice plastic buffer layer between the glass screen and the metal frame of the

  • phone that will help protect the front glass during drops for the crazy people who don't

  • like cases. Now let's check out this camera lens. The Pixel 4's this year have 2 cameras

  • under this massive rear camera lens. It's scratch resistant and covered with glass.

  • There's a 12 megapixel normal camera and a 16 megapixel 2x telephoto zoom camera. Personally

  • I think telephoto is pretty cool and I'd be totally fine with this setup if it was still

  • 2017. Nowadays, every major flagship has 3 perspectives, and that leaves the Pixel 4

  • pretty behind the times. You might be thinking to yourself, 'But wait, doesn't the Pixel

  • 4 have that cool new high refresh rate screen? That's pretty futuristic, right?' Well yes,

  • but actually no. The Pixel 4's 90 Hertz display only works at brightness levels above 75%.

  • Of course you can go super nerd and enter the developer settings and force 90 hertz

  • all the time, but unless Google puts out a software update, the average person will not

  • be getting the 90 hertz display they thought they were paying for.

  • The screen did last about 40 seconds under my burn test though, which helps out pretty

  • much nobody. There was no damage done to the screen. Now don't get me wrong, maybe you

  • want the Pixel Phone for it's on board Google Assistant or it's picture taking abilities.

  • The Pixel does do somethings very well. But from the current price perspective and hardware

  • perspective, I feel like there's some major room for improvement. Which brings us to bend

  • test.

  • Bending the Pixel 4 XL from the back is fine. The screen keeps the phone structurally solid

  • with no kinks or cracks in the frame. Bending the phone from the front though...there's

  • a loud pop. Honestly I haven't had a phone break in so long it kind of scared me...so

  • I stopped. Right under the large square camera lens above the white power button is a full

  • crack all the way across the frame. It looks fairly painful. Let's keep going to see if

  • anything else breaks. Continuing the bend we hear another crack. This time on the other

  • side above the SIM card tray. The Pixel 4 is now snapped in 2 places but it's still

  • alive. Continuing on, we now have more cracks appearing at the bottom of the phone.

  • The problem with the Pixel 4 XL is the antenna line placement. Every metal phone has antenna

  • lines built into the frame. Pixel is using their thick paint to cover these antenna lines...which

  • looks pretty aesthetic from the outside, but they never addressed the structural weak points

  • inside of the phone. It's the same thing up here at the top. Another weak cracking point

  • in the metal frame right next to the plastic antenna line. The Pixel 4 is broken in 4 places.

  • Yeah, the screen is still alive along with the back panel, so it's not a total failure.

  • But for this price point, it's kind of ridiculous. We've come full circle. Google's flagship

  • Android phone, the Pixel 4, now does less and costs more than Apple's iPhone 11. And

  • that hurts me a little inside.

  • Now that all the major phones are out for this year, I think I will be upgrading my

  • 2 ½ year old Galaxy S8 Plus. I work a lot from my phone. Currently I'm leaning towards

  • to Note 10 Plus, but we'll see what happens. Google has the budget and power to make a

  • Pixel device for the ages. But instead we got a budget looking iPhone that isn't even

  • structural. They aren't putting a whole lot of effort into innovation or competition,

  • and it shows. There are quite a few mid range smartphones that I would pick over this Pixel

  • 4 flagship. We can always try again next year.

  • Hit that subscribe button if you haven't already. Come hang out with me on Instagram and Twitter.

  • And thanks a ton for watching. I'll see you around.
