Google Pixel 3 XL Review: The Shadow of the Notch!

49 Comments

1. Hey I'm gonna use this pinned comment for fact checking:

   The smaller Pixel 3 display is made by LG, while the XL is by Samsung

2. omg i'm like freaking out with how much i like the aspect ratio of this video

3. 6:50 love that

4. Do a review on the Huawei Mate 20 pro

5. Watching this while setting up my 3 xl!

6. Watching this on a Pixel 3 XL. You're absolutely right about everything including the speakers causing vibration. It is actually quite aggressive.

7. Scratchgate, Notchgate ?… [IRONIC MODE ON]oh wait! It’s not an iPhone ?, this is impossible because its a phone designed by Google [IRONIC MODE OFF]

8. How is including USB-C headphones in a USB-C phone the opposite to including Lightning headphones to a Lightning phone?

   This is a great review, but that line makes no sense other than to show that you can take a dig at Apple.

9. It's about time they use screens that can go transparent whenever you turn on the camera and cameras that rotate inside the phone so you don't need different front and back cameras. THEN you'd have a full screen device without having to compromise on the camera dept.

10. I've had the same memory issue on my 2XL. I'm thinking it's a software bug because I've only noticed it in the past couple weeks, so it seems to be new.

11. Love the new video aspect ratio. Having black bars on the top and bottom on my tv is better than black bars on the side of my phone, which lets face it phones are used more often now.

12. Why do we call it smartphones? because we talk a little but do a lot of pictures, surf the net, listen to music and do other things. Would not it be better to call them PDA? just asking

13. I did NOTCH see any comment as you promised Marques

14. And you're always a Masterclass in Youtube-graphy

15. The video quality is evolving rapidly! ?

16. Wallpaper??

17. OMG that's a really nice video for all those iSheeps over there

18. Will this be MKBHD's daily driver?

19. Google thought their camera will hide the notch issue but no the notch is shadowing the camera

20. Love the wide angle in 1440! Gives me a reason to put my S9+ into QHD and sacrifice a little battery. ?

21. Even more black bars on my surface now… But I understand the change:)

22. Pixel 2Xl design is preffered over new design.

23. Top 3 comments didn't have notch… Scrollbait

24. What about a video about the 'apple ecosystem' argument where you show some alternatives in the android/windows side?

25. Everyone is upset that Apple doesn’t include dongles anymore, but no one remembers that iPhones ditched the headphone jack 3 generations ago while Google, who made fun of Apple for doing so, just took the headphone jack away. You have stop including dongles and let people just adapt at some point, otherwise there was no point in taking the headphone jack away in the first place.

26. nokia s few phone already got P update..

27. Is the mics really that bad as in other reviews/samples?

28. Notch!

29. Great wider screen video! Fits great on my iPhone X! Love it

30. This aspect ratio is more enjoyable

31. Lovin’ the widescreen

32. @4:05 Anderson Paak hot ones was the last vid i watched before this?

33. @12:52 the pan shot it looked like the pixels around the notch are fluttering

34. And again….What calendar widget is it ?

35. Love u google pixel

36. @mkbhd my pixel 2 XL does that with the music too. Turn off battery optimization and it won't happen again

37. Notch

38. First time I didn't need to zoom in on my 5t

39. I love the ultrawide. It looks stunning on my LG UW monitor and even on a 18:9 phone (Xiaomi N.5)

40. This video fits beautifully on my Pixel 2 XL ???

41. aspect ratio is awesome

42. Any J7 user around ? ??

43. Hey Marques, what is the name of the intro track you used in this video?

44. Notch

45. Man why does it look so horrible ): Destroys the whole phone for me

46. This video was like some serious shit was going to happen or a movie is starting really how awesome can your videos get!! Loved your videos and peace

47. I didn't think MKBHD videos could get anymore professional, but somehow the widescreen makes it that much more professional.

48. Again why are everyone so desperate for this "premium feel" that offer nothing compared to polymers

49. I don’t like it
