Who Hated the Google Pixel 4? Google, Apparently
Google unveiled the Pixel 5 today (9to5Google has a good roundup), and nothing makes the Pixel 4 looks worse than seeing how few of the things Google said they were excited about last year being straight up gone this year.
* All that face sensor tech? Gone.
* That radar sensor that was such a big revolution?

The iPhone SE Still Can’t be Beat
The Pixel 4a is coming out soon and it looks like a great phone. Much like last year's 3a, this is a lower powered phone, but with Google's clean version of Android and a killer camera. If you want a sub-$500 Android phone, I find it hard to think you

The Pixel 4 Still Beats the iPhone 11 Pro for Zoom Photography
Sometimes people suggest you can just pinch-to-zoom and get basically the same result with smartphone cameras. I very much disagree, and used this shot to see the difference.
I'm standing a ways away from the mailbox and tapped to focus on it in all of these shots. Here's the

The Pixel 4’s Face Unlock is Hampered by Android
I hate my pixel 4 for one reason and one reason only : reddit
BANKING APPS FACIAL RECOGNITION DOESN'T WORK. My most important apps are now a pain in the ass to use because I have to physically log in.
I can attest to this too. We’re over 2 months into the Pixel

Low Light Christmas Trees on 2019’s Best Phones (and an iPhone SE)
We have a little tree my wife and I put up every year and it’s a thing that is kinda hard to take good pictures of. There is quite a bit of dynamic range which typically means photos look overly darkened to compensate for the bright lights.
2019 has been a very good year

iPhone 11 Pro and Pixel 4 Christmas Lights Shoot Out

When it Comes to Performance, iPhone is Still King
Finding things you can test on iPhones and Android devices is kinda tricky. App launch times, while relevant to overall sense of speed, does not really test performance, and many of the apps that I could use to test an iPhone’s performance don’t run on Android.
Given this, there are 6 total tests

I installed the pre-release version of the Google Camera app with astral photography functionality on a Pixel 3a and tried it out compared to the iPhone 11 Pro. I don't have a Pixel 4 yet to see how it does, but I hope to get one pretty soon
