Every year is a tight competition for Apple, Samsung, LG and OnePlus and it might seem a bit overblown to say that the Pixel XL beats the rest as the most comfortable and yet still one of the best smartphones. Lots of metrics are factored in when considering what makes a great smartphone, or, indeed the best. long battery life, performance, camera, build quality, innovation, sound quality and overall design, amongst others. The more boxes the phone ticks, the higher score it gets.

Google Pixel XL Is Still The Best Smartphone To Date

But one factor leads all others: how much of an all-rounder it is. This means how many of the features it has to reap the above-average or good ranking. Well, the last phone everyone considered to be a true all-rounder was the iPhone 6 Plus. Now it's the Google Pixel XL. Moreover, this is arguably where the Pixel starts to overtake the old Nexus line-up. Where the Nexus series was widely a favorite of smartphone enthusiasts who love to tinker, side-load, develop their own software and generally fits around. Pixel is intended, again like the iPhone, to have horde consumer appeal. It's a bit tidier, sleeker, and more gleaming. Other phones may make use of Google Assistant, but none will be so closely blended into the Android experience as on the Pixel.
