The photo flagship from the Corporation of Good in the third generation is still equipped with a “one-eyed” 12.2 MP camera from the rear, which, however, did not prevent the smartphone from being classified as a top camera phone. The stake in the photographic part of the question of the gadget is made on the principles of machine learning, which is equal to the specialists from Google.
The smartphone takes excellent photos during the day and produces stunning night shots. But the selfie cameras in the assets of the Google Pixel 3 64GB, surprisingly, there are two (with a standard viewing angle and wide-angle optics for shooting group self-portraits). The model is built on a powerful "iron" bundle of the 845th Snapdragon, 4 GB of RAM and high-performance Adreno 630 graphics, so that the "Googlephone" has no problems with turning "heavy" applications. A P-OLED matrix with juicy and rich colour rendering, showing an image at a resolution of 2160x1080 pixels, is assigned to the role of the screen of the mobile gadget. The device also got sensitive side edges, front stereo speakers, IP68 dust and water protection, an NFC chip and support for charging a 2915 mAh battery “by air”.

The “perfect” smartphone with flaws
Google envisioned the Pixel as the ultimate Android smartphone to replace the geeky Nexus handsets. Unfortunately, reality took a wrong turn, and instead of perfect smartphones, the company began to produce interesting models that were buried in reviews due to small, but numerous and often strange flaws. Many of these rakes could easily be crossed.
They can be operated with one hand!
For example, the third "pixel" turned out to be an extremely compact device with an excellent single camera and a clean system. The display diagonal here is only 5.5", and the case height does not exceed 146 mm. From these figures, tears of tenderness will well up among oldfags who remember phones that could be controlled with one hand. The P-OLED display itself boasts a high resolution of 2160x1080 (pixel density of 443 ppi), a large margin of brightness and excellent colour reproduction. It's a pity that the bezels around the display came out quite thick. A single camera with smart algorithms, support for HDR + and the famous night mode at one time received an impressive 103 points from the specialists from DxOMark. Well, pure Android with timely updates is a paradise for those who do not like third-party firmware with pre-installed software and embedded ads.
Defects corrected, advantages left
At the same time, the Pixel 3 suffered from several shortcomings that kept it from being on the podium of the best smartphones of 2018. Firstly, 64 GB storage is not enough for a camera phone. And memory cards are not supported. The 2915 mAh battery does not shine with battery life. However, thanks to the economical OLED display in the sparing mode, the Pixel 3 holds up to two days. The camera was also strongly scolded, but its glitches were of a software nature and they were fixed with a firmware update. But in other aspects, the Google Pixel 3 is quite in line with the spirit of the times: a powerful Snapdragon 845 processor, an NFC chip for contactless payments, a fingerprint scanner, fast charging, and an IP68 water-resistant metal and glass body. At $440, it's still a great machine. Especially if you are tired of scanning store shelves in search of a compact smartphone.
