1) The Pixel will be the first to receive the latest Android updates

Anyone who has used multiple Android devices, knows that even with a new Android update out, there is no telling when you are likely to receive it. But that is not going to be the case with Pixel. The phone already comes with Android 7.1 Nougat and you get all the updates first, while other, even the more expensive Android phones, have to wait months.

2) More power

The Pixel phones will be the first to use Qualcomm's Snapdragon 821 CPU. The company claims this processor brings around 10 per cent more power. It is also supposed to provide better support for Google Daydream VR.

3) It has one of the best smartphone cameras 

According to DxOMark, Pixel rates the highest among all the smartphone cameras they have tested. Pixel’s 12.3 MP camera is paired with a fast f/2.0 lens.

The Pixel can also record 4K video at 30fps, and 1080p videos at up to 120fps. The phone's video stabilisation is exellent.

4) It has a headphone jack

The Google Pixel is being launched as a direct competitor to the iPhone 7. And while this comparison may be considered a kind of cheap shot, one has to admit, we still need headphone jacks.

5) Superfast charging

The Pixel uses a USB-C port to charge, which claims that a 15-minute charge can run the phone for seven hours.

6) Google Assistant

Google's answer to Siri comes in the form of Google Assistants and by the looks of it, it is pretty good. Not only can you hold two-way conversations with the digital assistant, Google has also, apparently, hired comedy writers from Pixar and The Onion to make sure that Google Assistant has a a sense of humour.
