The history of smartphone improvement has largely relied on companies cramming faster or more powerful components into the now ubiquitous glass slabs we carry around. But the Pixel 3 is something else. Instead of focusing on things like a brighter screen, tons of RAM, or multiple rear cameras, almost all of the Pixel 3's advantages come from a software-first mindset. This results in a smarter, more intuitive experience that feels very different from the hardware-driven approaches employed by many of Google’s competitors. And while this isn’t Google’s first attempt at something like this, this third Pixel (we evaluated both it and the Pixel 3 XL) is the device that really pulls all of Google’s efforts together and makes it feel special.  Smartphones Smartphones Pixel 3 What is it?

While they hide some great secret features, even Apple has been forced to admit its new iPhone XS (details) and iPhone XS Max (details) were shipped with problems. The good news is Apple fixed most of them, but new tests confirm there is one it can do nothing about… Putting to bed questions about real-world performance, popular YouTube site PhoneBuff enlisted the help of robotics and discovered that for all the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max’s incredible CPU performance, battery life is a mess. Particularly the bigger model. What PhoneBuff discovered is the iPhone XS Max, the largest and most expensive iPhone ever made, couldn’t get close to the battery life longevity of its primary rival: Samsung’s Galaxy Note 9. In fact, when the iPhone XS Max died the Note 9 still had a massive 37% battery life remaining. This is a shock for several reasons. Firstly, while the Galaxy Note 9 has a larger battery, it’s only 20% larger (4,000 mAh vs 3,174 mAh). Secondly, the Note 9 has a higher r...
