The editors didn't like
Not much has changed since the Pixel 2
We're still waiting on some features to be enabled in Australia
The verdict
No 3
5mm headphone jack or expandable memory
Expensive
Kinda boring hardware
Less battery life than the competition
Battery life is relatively underwhelming for a flagship phone
Only available in 64 and 128GB storage
This should be 128 or 256GB for a flagship phone in 2018
No expandable memory
Needs something special to make it really stand out
The phone's onscreen notch is taller than other phones. It doesn't have expandable memory or a headphone jack
And its camera's enhanced low-light feature isn't available yet

The best Android experience, Excellent OLED screen, Superb camera,
Average audio quality, No 3.5mm jack,
It's easy to become blasé about what's on offer from the latest smartphones. The Pixel 3 XL isn't revolutionary, nor does it offer a giant leap forward from its predecessor. But if you want a big-screen Android phone for taking photos, watching videos and...
Speak to Google Assistant with your voice, or squeeze the sides of the phone gently to bring up the assistant, Also available with a 5.5in screen and smaller battery for £739, Have fun with the Playground feature that adds Augmented Reality (AR) character
No facial recognition, The camera doesn't have a mode where you tweak settings like shutter speed yourself, Wide angle lens for selfies gives a distorted look
Expensive, but photography fans will find this smartphone is worth every penny. Simple to use, it's fast and has good battery life when it comes to video playback, although it does lack facial recognition and the wide angle selfie camera gives snaps a dis...

The Google Pixel 3 XL delivers on every key area we care about in a mobile phone: it's got a stunning camera (one of the best on the market), it's got superb battery life, and it's quick, smart and easy to use.Whilst it may not offer that many massive ste...

Google aces the camera again, Screen is big and beautiful, Pixel Android and speedy updates
Did you notice that notch?, Battery life is unspectacular, No in-screen fingerprint reader
Google Pixel 3 XLWith an improved screen, improved software, and an improved camera (mostly on the software side), the Pixel 3 XL is undoubtedly the best phone that Google has ever put out. You're going to have to pay a lot for this handset, but we'd say...

Best camera phone we've tested, Problem-free 6.3-inch OLED display, Solid battery life vs smaller Pixel 3
The notch cut out is hard to ignore, Not one-hand friendly as Pixel 3, More expensive, like all 2018 phones
The Google Pixel 3 XL marries the best camera phone we've ever tested with a sizable, albeit controversial color-rich 6.3-inch OLED screen. It's the right fit for people who don't mind the notch cut out at the top and have already adjusted their grip for...

super smooth and fluid performance, great screen, squeezable sides, Android 9 Pie and 3 years of updates, water resistant, fantastic camera, wireless charging
massive notch, no expandable storage or removable battery, no headphone jack, no face recognition, quite big and slippery
The Pixel 3 XL is a great smartphone, but unlike last year's XL offering, it isn't necessarily the best Google phone – the smaller, cheaper Pixel 3 is in many ways a better phone.The Pixel 3 XL is a slick, attractive and lovely-feeling device, but it's al...

Brilliant camera, excellent display, sleek design
Lacklustre battery life, middling RAM, not different enough to the Pixel 2 XL, expensive, that notch, Rating:
The Pixel 3 XL is all about: smart tech neatly presented. It's a fabulous showcase for what Android really should be like and it feels like a smartphone that's genuinely smart...

These are both madly expensive phones, and you won't be surprised to hear that they're both pretty decent, too. But which is the one to plump for if money is (almost) no object?The Pixel 3 XL leads on the camera, and may just be the best cameraphone yet r...
Abstract: Let's get the elephant in the room out of the way first. Yes, the Pixel 3 XL has a display notch. Yes, its display notch is suitably beefier than that on the iPhone Xs, Xs Max, Huawei P20 Pro and OnePlus 6. But, no, it's not actually all that annoying...
