The Voice Transcription Feature: A Game-Changer for Android Users

I think the coolest one for me honestly is that voice transcription within the app because it works, I've talked really fast to it and it's able to transcribe. I mean hopefully it's you can see exactly on the screen what I'm saying right now and it's pretty cool it works pretty well and it understands my Australian accent so yeah I like it. But what you need to know is that it all works offline and it stays on device and it's all done on device so hopefully that gives you some peace of mind when it comes to security, when it comes to performance both of these are definitely on the premium end of the spectrum and they perform really well.

I'm not going to run through every single spec if you want that please go click on the link in the description below but what I will say is that neither of these phones have struggled with pretty much anything that I've thrown at them technically. The OnePlus 7 Pro is a little bit faster in terms of benchmarks, but overall I don't know if it's gonna make that much of a difference to your everyday use. The Snapdragon 855 Plus in the OnePlus 7 Pro is technically very similar to the Snapdragon 855 in the Pixel 4 although it has been optimized slightly for mobile gaming so if that's something that you like doing than maybe the 7 Pro is the better buy for you.

Storage, though, well that's another story altogether because unfortunately the base storage of the Pixel 4 is only 64 gigabytes. Yes, you can buy a 128GB version but it costs more. Obviously. These two phones are only one storage option each and at least on the OnePlus 7 Pro you get a lot more storage straight off the bat - 128GB. Neither of these phones have expandable storage so you are really gonna be offloading to the cloud if you do a lot of like photos and videos and lots of different apps and things like that.

But come on Google, like 64 gigabytes please give us a little bit more or free Google Photo storage at original resolution hint hint. Like you did before. The real reason you get the Pixel over any other Android phone is the pure Android experience and the fact that you get Android updates before pretty much anybody else. They go straight to the Pixel and then everyone else has to work out how they're going to do it on their phones. I really love pure Android and for me this is a big big deal but if you don't really know that much about pure Android or you don't really mind, then Oxygen OS on the OnePlus 7 Pro is really nice. It looks very premium and it's still running Android 10 just like this phone straight out of the box so you don't lose out on any of those extra features. Just depends which look you prefer.

Let's check what's in the box on the Pixel 4 you get the phone, a charger, and a USBC cable. On the OnePlus 7 Pro you get the phone, a case, a charger, and the USBC cable. Neither of them come with a headphone jack, okay so let's look at the boxes side by side because like I don't normally do this but this is kind of hilarious.

Pixel for box standard retail issue 1 plus 7c box ok not retail issue this came to me from one plus the retail boxes you keep it like honestly this is hilarious there's some documentation this is the actual retail box this is a note pad something this is what is this this is headphones and yeah oh there's more I just found the next level this is I get cases one two three three cases look at that Wow okay feel like this is there anything else under here no we've done. Please subscribe to my unboxing channel on YouTube now.

It comes down to which one I would pick if I was spending my own money again, a tough decision and this one really comes down to do you want a really really kick-ass camera with night mode and the ability to get Android in its purest form and updates first well if so then I would choose the Pixel. But I'm a cheapskate and I really like ultra-wide cameras and every time I was using the pixel I just wished that I had that ultra wide-angle lens on the OnePlus 7 Pro so for that reason, for cheapskates pick I'm definitely gonna pick the OnePlus 7 Pro because it doesn't feel like a compromise despite it being $200 less. It's a premium phone, it's got a fingerprint reader in the screen, it's got everything that I want, really nice camera and it doesn't look as nice in terms of Oxygen OS to me as pure Android but I guess I could just put a different launcher on it and it would look different.

Thanks for watching if you want to buy either of these two phones I've conveniently placed the links in the description below and make sure to come back soon when I will be comparing the air pods pro against a cheaper alternative.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enthe pixel force starts at $800 in the US and it's the phone to buy if you want the purest Android experience but this Android phone though one plus 70 is only $600 and it offers a lot of the same features so let's work out if you need to spend more or less I'm comparing these two phones on everything from the cameras to the battery life to performance what the screens look like and all of the extra features inside so let's get started let's talk cameras so the main difference between these two is that you get two lenses on the pixel 4 and 3 on the oneplus 70 and those three are a regular wide ultra wide and a 2 x telephoto the pixel 4 is just a regular wide and a 2 x telephoto now google says that most people probably don't want an ultra-wide lens because they'll rather use a telephoto I don't know about that I think I'm definitely on Team ultra wide just because when you're trying to take a shot you can generally move closer or pinching to zoom you can't pinch out to zoom and you got to keep walking further and further backwards and eventually you're gonna fall over something for general photos with HDR turned on both of the phones do a really good job there's a great level of detail and sharpness on them when you zoom into the hundred percent crop and the color rendition is pretty nice on both however there is a difference straight out of the camera the images from the oneplus 70 look a little bit more saturated and punchy than those from the pixel 4 but a lot of this comes down to personal preference and what looks good to me might not look good to you and vice versa I think portrait mode is a lot more dramatic on the pixel compared to the oneplus 70 and it does a better job on inanimate objects like flowers for example from the rear camera selfies is a bit of a tough one because again taking photos of your selfie I don't know which one you prefer to me I prefer the way I look a little bit more on the oneplus 70 but again it's a little less saturated and sometimes washed out so maybe the pixel looks good however when it support Ramon on the front-facing camera I definitely think the 17 wins this one just because sometimes on the pixel it just doesn't quite get the blue right now it comes to night mode my favorite time to take photos it's night site versus nightscape and yeah I hate to break it to you but then one plus 17 does a really good job at night photography I don't think it's as well-rounded as night sight on the pixel but honestly for $200 less you're getting a really really capable camera in this phone ever just look a little bit warmer overall at night then from the pixel but again unless you put them side-by-side I don't think you're really gonna notice but the pixel has a one final ace up its sleeve when it comes to the camera and it is astrophotography mode honestly this mode is fully sick as you would say in Australia because it's so cool video though is another matter because the pixel for still only does 4k at 30 frames a second whereas the oneplus 70 is 4k at 60 frames a second and it's just night and day in terms of smoothness I love having 60 frames a second as an option yes it takes up more storage space but honestly if you want memories to look the best they're gonna look the best on the 17 now let's talk battery life because all of those resource intensive applications mean that you will probably be using this phone quite a lot and draining down the battery to warp charged on the oneplus 70 this is pretty epic you can charge your phone from flat to a hundred percent charge in about an hour and the charger in the box is just it's a beast like honestly the pixel 4 has fast rapid charging but that giant charger you put it side-by-side with the oneplus charger and yeah size does matter in this instance however the pixel does have wireless charging whereas the oneplus 70 does not both of them will get you through the day on one charge but there are some caveats so the pixel for the battery is smaller than previous generations and it does take a beating if you are using a lot of resource-intensive applications our battery tests showed that the four and the four Excel which is the larger version of the pixel and it has a slightly large battery to only lasted around eleven to twelve hours in our battery tests whereas the one per seventy it got like 16 hours Plus which is insane let's talk design because this is where the phones really start to pull away from each other the oneplus 70 is obviously a larger design it is a six point five five inch display and it has a glossy finish at the back available in a silver or a blue color it is a little bit of a fingerprint magnet let's be honest I think people are going to be able to lift prints off this if you really tried but it looks premium and really pretty the pixel four on the other hand is I guess a little bit more of a simple design for me I like this two-tone black of the camera bump and the white although the glossy black finish you can get into is also a fingerprint magnet and then there's that limited-edition Orange I don't know do you like oranges I mean I like the fruit but I don't like it it's a color from a phone the pixel four comes in two sizes their regular 5.7 inch or the 6.3 inch on the for Excel and they both have slightly denser displays than the oneplus 70 when it comes to using them I didn't find that there was that much difference although I definitely noticed that looking at text it was a lot sharper on the pixel for phones then on the seventy but display wise they also both have ninety Hertz displays which is really pretty to look at it means things refresh faster and scrolling is so much more seamless and gaming also gets a bit of a boost - so I've been using the pixel for a while now and look at this there's like scratches on the screen I don't know what's going on I feel like I've been asleep and someone started to claw at the phone while I wasn't there because it looks pretty bad let's be honest and this is only after I guess a week's worth of use so I don't want to see this in a couple of months time it's just been in my bag people haven't been clawing out of my sleep unless they have been telling me anyway the oneplus 70 comes with a built on screen protector which is nice of although yeah you could put one on the pixel for yourself but the fact that it comes with one is a nice bonus however the oneplus 70 is not IP rated we have done our own testing with the older versions of the oneplus phones and they last longer than nothing but they don't have the official ip68 rating of the pixel 4 do you like bezels I don't the pixel 4 has some bezels and there's a reason for that especially at the top because that's where the radar and selfie camera is the oneplus 70 on the other hand it's not entirely edge to edge but it's pretty close and it looks pretty nice - there's that teardrop selfie camera at the front but I think it's nice and unobtrusive as opposed to the big black bar at the top of the pixel both phones have different ways to authenticate and unlock your device the pixel 4 has face scanning and a pin no fingerprint reader though unlike the earlier pixel phones the oneplus 70 has the option of a pin and a fingerprint reader under the screen it also has face unlock although it is not secure enough to use for things like online banking and mobile payments there's a lot of discussion online about the pixel force face unlocking technology because it works when your eyes are closed maybe this is a big deal to you if you leave your phone unawares while you're sleeping and someone uses your face while you're asleep to unlock the phone don't know how likely that is anyway Google says that it's gonna be making a fix soon to actually make it so you have to have your eyes open while you use face unlock the 70 doesn't have that problem however you could walk up to someone with this phone and if they were asleep put their thumb on it and the phone would unlock so there's always a problem there's always a way to get around it so just be aware of it so the pixel has a really cool radar at the front which is used for well not that many things right now let's be honest but their future applications seem pretty cool but for now all you can do change tracks and when you have your phone laying down on a surface if it detects you coming up to it it can turn the display on I think that's kind of nice it's like a personal Butler walks up to me and knows that I need my slippers before even I need them so you know I like that but the real proof is gonna be in what this radar can do in the future and right now we just don't know as with any pixel device you get a lot of Google features and tight integration but I think the coolest one for me honestly is that voice transcription within the app because it works I've talked really fast to it and it's able to transcribe I mean hopefully it's you can see exactly on the screen what I'm saying right now and it's pretty cool it works pretty well and it understands my Australian accent so yeah I like it but
