  • Our take on the Google Pixel XL

    The Google Pixel XL is Google's 2016 flagship phablet, a 5.5-inch phone built around a 12.3MP camera that reviewers rated among the best of its year. It runs stock Android with Google Assistant built in and was among the first phones with Daydream VR support. Its Snapdragon 821 and 4GB of RAM were fast for 2016 but are modest now, and the phone stopped receiving Android updates years ago. It suits collectors, tinkerers and anyone who wants a clean Android phone for light use, not someone who needs current security patches.

    What reviewers say

    Reviewers praised the Pixel XL's camera, clean software and battery life when it launched in 2016, and owners still cite the camera and stock Android as its strengths. The main complaints are its age: no security updates, slowing performance and aging batteries.

    Questions and answers

    Does the Pixel XL still get Android updates?
    No. Google ended software and security updates for the Pixel XL years ago, so it runs an old Android version without current patches.
    Is the Pixel XL camera still good?
    It was among the best phone cameras of 2016 and still takes decent daylight photos, but it lacks modern features like ultrawide and night modes.
    How does the Pixel XL compare with the smaller Pixel?
    The XL has the same internals and camera as the smaller Pixel but a larger 5.5-inch QHD screen and a bigger battery.
    Does the Pixel XL support wireless charging or water resistance?
    No wireless charging, and it is only splash and dust resistant rather than fully water resistant.
    What is in the box?
    Retail units shipped with the phone, a USB-C cable, a power adapter and a USB-C to USB-A adapter for migrating data.
    Is the Pixel XL a good buy today?
    Only for collectors or very light use. Without security updates and with aging hardware, it is not a practical daily phone.
