A high quality deluxe flagship running on Android 7.1 Nougat and carrying meticulous specs all round and alongside extremely fast CPU having good enough battery life 

After Google Pixel, now Pixel XL is out with all the essentials of a certain flagship and meeting new expectations and requirements, Google has certainly gone a leap forward in this industry of smartphones. If you have a love for android running devices then for sure Pixel XL will allure you in its high quality which runs all along, from its design to specs, its software to its battery life.


Pixel XL holds amazing software alongside Google Assistant and has a good battery life, if you are most concerned about battery performance in any flagship. High in price, and why not? You will get served by high quality and premium features of it and you will not regret spending so much amount of money on it.





Certain things that won't go its way that its not water resistant and if you have a crave for new design then you will be disappointed a bit that there is not much of a change and that makes you realize that if it claims to be a flagship then it should have all these things in placed. Apart from saying all this, it surely has some enigma attach to it and people who were eagerly waiting for Google Assistant will finally be able to breath a bit.

Design And Screen

Google has completely not compromised while working on Google Pixel and Pixel Xl and ensured that this time around it reach close to perfection if not complete perfection. Upgraded and latest software in it makes it even more ravishing and worth while to have in your pocket if you like android in general.


Google Assistant is what makes Pixel and Pixel XL stands apart from rest of other flagships in smartphones arena and on top of that, it is running on latest Android 7.1 Nougat which ensures more power and sustainability in it. 


Whether you like playing high intensity games or you watch HD movies all day long or if you are into VR, then it has something to offer for everybody. You should bear in mind that it also has Snapdragon 821 processor placed in it and when it gets combined with 4 GB of RAM, then you can rest assure that you will get a top notch speed out of it.





Where Pixel has 5.1 inch display, here in Pixel XL, you will get bigger display with same quality of QHD. Rear camera is also considerably fine and compare to Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge, its just a touch weaker, which by far Samsung is leading and beating every other rival in that camera category.


Google Pixel's predecessor Nexus was not up to the mark in terms of any quality and that is why it didn't get itself any credit and get lost in dirt, but this time around Google has come up with top quality flagship and because of its premium nature, Google has set the price bar pretty high.


If you put it aside with the likes of S7 Edge and iPhone 7 Plus, then you might get disappointed in regard to its peculiar design, where S7 Edge and iPhone has something new and exquisite design and both of them handsomely beat Pixel XL in that facet, and Google has to do a bit more effort to tempt its customers if it wants to compete with other flagships.


Pixel XL is just a huge relief for those people were looking for something new in big devices after getting over from other companies like Apple and Samsung, and while they get hold to this flagship they should bear in mind that it is also not as perfect as a flagship should be, but for sure it will evolve into a more better and viable option in the coming years.


It might be out of reach for some people who just don't have that much to spend over it, as it is quite costly. You can buy it on contract basis and also its coming fully unlocked for which you have to pay all the money on first go. Its has 32 GB variant right now but in near future, you will be able to avail 128 GB version of it, which is obviously touch higher in price also.


One more thing here to focus is, that there is no option if you want to have more memory as it don't have microSD option in place. You have to be a bit cautious not to over stock it with too many heavy games or for that matter downloaded movies and music. 


Google has ensured that every thing in Pixel is of top quality and that is why its competing tow to tow with its rivals like iPhone 7 Plus and others also, and that is why there is no excuse when it comes to high premium offer with huge price. So if for now you can't able to buy it fully unlocked then you can go for other option and that is paying Google month to month for about 24 months consecutively.


Most people don't like getting bound in any restrictions so they usually prefer buying Sim free version all at once. Although its a premium phone but when it comes to design, then it does not offer a lot and its quite typical in that regard, where if you have Galaxy S7 Edge then its design is by far the best right now. Aside from saying this, I am sure that it will not put you off if in case you want to buy it.


Although one thing is noticeable that there is no camera bulge on its rear like other flagships, so it feels very nice in hand and this ease of access makes it quite user friendly. Its not completely glass and metal has infused in it and that creates a win win situation for both metal and glass lovers.


Fingerprint sensor on its rear alongside fine aluminum rim makes it more worthwhile to hold in your hand pretty comfortable and flaunt it as per your liking, sometimes when your are holding Pixel XL in your hand then it does feel a bit odd to use your finger on its scanner and unlock it.


Display is quite bigger than Pixel and that is an encouraging sign for all gaming lovers or people who like to enjoy watching movies on bigger display. Color dispersion is very awesome making every thing look finer and brighter and that is very handy if you choose to attach VR with it.


It has slightly more girth for my liking but with its wider screen, its best suited to watch anything on it quite comfortably. Most of the people who are not careful enough with their devices need to be extra cautious while flaunting Pixel XL, as it does not have water resistant in it, which is kinda sad thing if you are paying that big of a price. Being a water resistant makes any flagship more flamboyant and it also keeps you off the hook a bit.


You may not find a physical home button but power key along with volume key is on its right side. Now more or less every phone is having force touch home button in it and that is the new trend now and its also present in the likes of Apple devices. It feels just a bit odd when you are used to of physical home button, I am sure as you get along with it, it will nicely fall in your groove.


5.5 inch display is more than enough to serve your need especially when it comes to game nerds and those who watch movies on leisure time. Headphone jack is usual at the top of device instead of being at bottom which needs to be sorted out as it makes rather irritating plugging in and using it that way because wires get so jumbled up when you are walking while holding it in your hand.


Google has put two speakers in it to make it more appealing among its users and having dual speakers take user experience to just another level. Originally it is coming in blue, black and silver and depending on your liking, you can also avail diverse option, but blue one is limited edition though.


Color dispersion is good and with its 5.5 inch AMOLED display, it becomes a viable option for VR purpose and you will might prefer using Pixel XL rather than Pixel for that bigger screen luxury.


Where some other flagships like S7 Edge and iPhone 7 Plus are offering "always on display" this feature is missing in Pixel XL in general and that is also not considered by Google, as it makes user experience even more handy. Fingerprint scanner is on their hand a cool addition that makes it efficient to use when you don't want to always tap power key and you can unlock device with ease. 

What it's like to use?

Google Assistant 

All you have to do is to just say "Okay Google" and it will turn on and listen to your command, but it takes time initially to recognize your voice and as you use it more and more, it will become a part of your daily life.


You can ask results of last day basketball game or check weather through it or you can ask about directions to go to your work place. For sure it can give you minor details but don't expect it to answer peculiar question then it might get stuck and handful web results show, which you have to browse it by yourself.


More usual and regular commands make it work fine without any marginal error and twitching. As time will go by we can expect from Google to evolve it into a more productive Assistant and is not far away from present.

Interface And Specs 

If you run a speed test adjacent with other flagships then you will find that its leveling it with just a bit of a difference, but it does not matter to me which device you pick as you can get certain luxuries in one and some in the other, which in turn boils down to your personal likes and dislikes. Anyway Pixel Xl has its own premium quality with its Phablet size, providing you a better VR experience and giving quality assurance when it comes to watching movies on its bigger and wide display.

iPhone 7 Plus Review Latest

Design And Display

Plus it also includes an adapter for your convenience to attach headphones with it and listen to your favorite music, but if you don' want to choose that option then a light connecting ear-pods are there for you. According to me the wireless headphone is a far better option in terms of not getting into the whole fuss of so many wires around.

Wireless headphone does not come with the device so obviously you have to buy it separately and that may cost you an extra 150 bucks. It is just a feeling of relief for many to hear that it is of-course water resistant as well as dust resistant.

But here is the thing it is not completely water proof, what I mean is that it surely can take a half hour dip in water but not more than that. An ultra thin flagship that is lighter in weight and fits handsomely in your hand and you can carry it around with all its elegance or flaunt it for your liking.



Overall its just a well choreographed in terms of style and design making it a better quality flagship that can beat anyone around all hands down. You will find a slight twist in story that it lacks a physical home button, and you may find figuring your way around it as you get used to of it.

Apple has introduced a new Force-Touch technology in it, and its more like a touch sensitive pad and alongside it also imitates the touch by vibrating in similar fashion. Although it is not a physical home button but it functions in exactly the same way and by that I mean like push your home button in android, similarly you have to push here with slight force to trigger it.

Sometime its a bit odd to use because normally people are more accustom to that regular physical home button, but I am sure that as the time go by your awkwardness with it will reduce and you will be able to easily jab around it.

iPhone 7 Plus has sort of a same display in terms of HD resolution but its bigger. 5.5 inch of display has a resolution of 1080 x 1920 resolution and 401ppi pixel density. When you compare it with its rivals then you may think before buying it that other have QHD display in them so why should I buy iPhone 7 Plus?

Color dispersion is also very good in terms of appearance and all icons come out generally good. With the addition of wide color gamut, it has become more visual and quite appealing to ones eyes. 

Performance And Speed

Comparing it with some other flagships, then there is not much of a difference in terms of overall speed, but yeah! for sure its better than ever in iPhone 7 Plus. It just gives you so much piece of mind when you listening to music or doing any sort of multi-tasking in it.

Sound quality of this high supreme device is also enhanced with the addition speakers at the top and on the bottom of this flagship in order for it to generate a stereo sound, so if you get unlucky some day in a party where all of a sudden power goes down then you can easily turn your iPhone on and get your part rocking gain.

Sound at higher volume is not at all irritating and its not like you have to put your hands onto your ears or something, also it has plenty of advance options to adjust from and you can get a pretty soothing outcome. 

You will always feel yourself at greater advantage when you pick up your iPhone 7 Plus and do all that multi tasking and playing high intensity games with great ease and access. Interface of the device is also very clean and fuss free with all that 3D icons on the lock screen of your device.

You can customize the widgets appearing on lock screen by going into settings and choose what you want to appear on your lock screen starting from calendar to whether updates to news portals or whatever.

Home screen also has all default icons which you can manage around to your liking as well, and with the raise to wake feature smart, when you hold it, it automatically turns on. You can access you setting by just swiping from its bottom and do certain tweaks with it also.



3D touch is much more advanced in iPhone 7 Plus and when you touch the icons bubbles appear and they give you some details about the application which icon you are holding to. Plus that 3D touch is instant fast and because of the up-gradation in iOS software and it respond without wasting much of a time.

Battery And Camera

It still has enough power under its hood that it can satisfy your hunger with single charging on it and when you compare it with other rivals then its competing tow to tow with them showing just a bit of a difference.

If you have earlier used iPhone previous versions then you will instantly find significant improvement in terms of its battery performance. One more thing that is a bit downside when you see other flagships like Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, Google Pixel that they have fast charging enabled but in iPhone 7 Plus this is not the case.

On top of that if you find yourself stuck somewhere away from your charger then you can always enable the power saving mode to give yourself extra hours and this option comes very handy as well.

Camera quality is also brilliant in iPhone 7 Plus, with dual camera feature and alongside quality of pictures taken in a dim light is just extraordinary. You will hardly find a dual snapper in any other flagship and on top of that this time around it has wide lens induction, that ensures the quality of pictures by taking them to another level. 

12 MP camera on its rear gives you an excellent result with it 2x optical zoom and it does not matter what the input quality is, it always makes the output look even better. Some devices that have digital zoom in them doesn't produce good quality pictures, but optical zoom on the other hand is far better in performance and quality.



Normally a flagship has a single camera on its rear which is more than enough to give you high quality pictures, but imagine for a second that if you get dual camera then how much you could enhance the picture output. That is not all, if you still want to play around with the picture quality then there are plenty of advance options available in it to tweak around for your liking.

iPhone 7 Plus is excellent in producing good pictures in dim light, so for instance if you find yourself capturing any memorable moment and you find that light is not good enough then you don't have to worry about as it automatically improves the light and color contrast in those pictures.



If you compare it with its rivals then there is just slight of a difference but overall its not bad that you will withhold yourself from not buying it. Color dispersion and making pictures slightly more vibrant is something Apple has to work on a bit.

HDR mode is enabled by default and you don't have to turn it on by going into settings, so snapping you favorite moments are just fuss free to be honest. There is not a whole lot of advance modes and effects as such to play around but still whatever holds in its pocket is enough to give enormously good results.

It also has that live photo feature in it which you can also use to your leverage. Overall its still a best option to have that flagship with its brilliant up-gradation in camera aspects and dual camera with wide lenses having the capability of producing high quality images in low light are still the prominent facets of it. 

Final Verdict

iPhone 7 Plus is a premium device and with its many pros and sight cons, it is worth buying. People who love iOS and a big fan of it will have no issue what so ever to buy it. Price tag is quite a bit high and it is expected also, with all its supremacy and deluxe features that amount you are paying is quite justifiable.

It covers every aspect of a certain flagship starting from water resistance to better and improved performance and good battery life and dual camera, what more one can ask for. Adding some new tweaks in terms of force touch home button and inclusions of new chips with better cores is just quite exceptional.

Apple has ensured in every way that iPhone 7 Plus is better from its predecessors and they have managed to do so by upgrading every bit of this flagship. Its coming out in different variants from 32 GB to 128 GB to 256 GB and price is according to their respective luxuries.

Some people are complaining over the lack of headphone jack, but I think its just a blessing for some who don't that wire fuss around them and they can use it with wireless ear-pods. Plus on the other hand it has so much power in it that it makes enjoying high intensity games without any interruption and allows a certain piece of mind.

Display is good enough alongside an excellent interface and amazing color contrast with better display is just more than enough in any flagship. Although it do have water resistance but it is not that powerful enough and can only take you for a half hour ride. Dual speaker is another thing to look forward to, which has improved the overall sound quality in it and you can turn any dead place in night club with it.

It is just a wonderful proposition to acquire all that features with that kind of money and when you will buy it, you will appreciate every bit of it and for sure it carries a special class with it. 

Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Review

Design And Display

That curved shaped on its rear makes it more convenient to hold in your hand without any fear of slipping out of it, and that is kinda general trend now and you will see some other flagships replicating that in there model as well.

It might give a feeling of plastic as the covering around it is not that of pure metal so in that regard it does not feel as premium as some of the other rival devices in the market.

Maybe as it has the option of wireless charging that is why pure metal is not used, nonetheless it is still a high quality phone to have and some of the downsides of it will not hurt you as much if you plan to buy it in near future.

Camera bulge on its rear is not that irritating when you move your hand on its backside giving it a nice and smooth feel. With its beautiful rim, it has been made to be water resistant, so that is another sigh of relief for those careless people who just can't stop flirting with water with their phone in hand.

There is no dual speaker but with a quality that is applied even a single speaker will give you enough sound without any disturbance and you can watch your favorite movies or play your games with a piece of mind.

Although the changes in design are not extravagant but still they are enough to give S7 Edge a new look and texture so that people don't get bored of it any time soon.

Carrying a phone with QHD display makes watching movies and looking pictures even better and it is such an amazing feel when you are looking at pictures which are not that good but due to the brilliant QHD resolution it makes them look good as well.

Same old and superb Amoled technology has been used on it, which Samsung is relying on for quite some years now which play key role in giving any Samsung flagship a premium feel. 

I always get fascinated with the color contrast that Samsung use on its flagships that makes every color look separate and beautiful to look at and it does not even bothers you because technology they use is so damn good.

Plus it also has that added advantage that you can have your side display which you can configure by going into settings, that comes handy when you you want to see some notifications in hurry.

Camera And Battery

In case if you forgot your charger at home, then you don't have to worry about because power saving mode enables you to minimize the functioning of your device and thus you can extend your time through it before reaching home.

If you had drained it to a level where you want to keep it alive and somehow stuck in any emergency then you can turn its ultra power saving mode and save more energy. In general S7 Edge offers a decent battery power and competing tow to tow with its rivals in the market currently.

Quality of camera is also excellent without any doubt, considering the price tag company has put on it, it got to have excellent quality service to provide, and camera is also meant to be marvelous. 

12 MP camera on its rear with better pixel quality can assure you a mind boggling experience when you will take pictures from it. A good auto focusing ability alongside better performance during dim light and handful of advance options make it capable of producing good quality pictures and converting even a low quality picture into a high quality one, makes it worthwhile to have in your pocket.

Double tapping the home button can trigger it fast and you will be able to capture your favorite moments with it and make them memorable for you. Camera interface is also good and clean with some basic settings upfront and advance options, if you want to play around with different modes and effects.

Productivity enhances even more when you are taking pictures in dim light and that makes this flagship even more attractive. Comparing it with other flagships then it is not far behind in quality from some of the big names in industry. 

Its front facing camera is equally of a good quality and give some amazing selfies, if you love to take them through the course of your day. With the best technology that Samsung has applied on its front facing camera makes it even smoother and cleaner for taking selfies. Also it has that beauty mode which refine your snaps by adjusting the light and color contrast so that you don't regret that your selfies are coming bad.
