New generation. Google announced this Tuesday, October 15 the arrival of its new smartphones Pixel 4 (5.7 '') and Pixel 4 XL (6.3 ''). Launched respectively at 769 euros and 899 euros, they join the cohort of mid-range / high-end smartphones coming out this autumn, like the Apple iPhone 11 (from 859 euros) or the
OnePlus 7T Pro (759 euros). How does Google stand out?
Sign Language Recognition Starts
The information had largely leaked on the Web and it is confirmed: both smartphones incorporate a gesture recognition system. Appointed Motion Senseit's "perfect when driving, cooking or eating your favorite pizzas" (sic!), says Google. In the facts, Motion Sense that we were able to test briefly will not revolutionize the mobile phone. Or not yet.
For the moment, it is simply possible to interrupt an alarm by passing your hand over the phone, or to change the piece of music with a gesture from left to right (previous piece) or from right to left (piece next). Even reject an appeal. Questioned by 20 minutes to find out if it was possible with Motion Sense to raise and lower the volume with a simple gesture from top to bottom or from bottom to top, Google retorts that for now, "it will be to observe how the public appropriates Motion Sense before changing the technology. In short, we remain a little on our hunger. Google also states that Motion Sense also detects any presence around. This allows the smartphone to release its pressure on its battery (2,800 mAh for the Pixel 4 and 3,700 mAh for the Pixel 4 XL) by limiting the functions of the smartphone in case of absence.
A dictaphone still reserved for the English language
Another innovation presented as major on Pixel 4: a dictaphone function with real-time transcription in the form of written text of any spoken text. No need to take a course in notes when you're a student (or decrypt an interview when you're a journalist!): The Pixel 4 does it for you … At first glance, this function already known with software voice transcription, however, looks very bluffing, especially since it can be used in airplane mode. In other words: no words escape on the cloud…
Alas, it is still reserved for the English language. In short: impossible to dictate anything in French Pixel 4, it must be caused in the language of Shakespeare. Here again, Google promises more in a second time, with upcoming French-French transcriptions. Without specifying when …
The photo again and again in the goal of Google
Of course, it is also on the picture that Pixel 4 is expected. Pixel 3 and
3a had so impressed the minds on the quality of their images that we hoped to go even further. To break new ground, Google has a second 12.2-megapixel (77 ° f / 1.7) rear photo sensor in addition to a 16-megapixel (52 ° f / 2.4) sensor. Purpose: to improve the Portrait mode of smartphones by optimizing the work on the depth of field.
This second sensor would also allow Google to avoid the damage caused by backlighting by better dosing the light on the subject in the foreground. Night Vision mode, which has become the reference for low-light photos on smartphones, is advancing, especially to photograph … the night skies! A freehand or tripod, the Pixel 4 also want to have the head in the stars. Not sure this is a killer app (Especially since it is increasingly difficult to see stars in our urban skies), but the few photos that were unveiled on Tuesday to the press suggest that we can get good results. To be confirmed in a test next …
More useful no doubt, a named function Frequent Faces. Thanks to its embedded artificial intelligence, the Pixel 4 is able to recognize the people most often photographed. If these people are identified during a snapshot, the photo settings (sharpness, light …) will be privileged on his face. Roughly: on the birthday picture of your daughter with his girlfriends, there will be a really pretty girl, yours! We also expect to be able to better understand this function.
Google sets the bar quite high with its new Pixel 4 while trying to distinguish itself with features either very interesting … or a little gadget. By playing more credible alternatives to the big names in telephony like Samsung, Huawei and Apple, the manufacturer has yet to make a name among the leaders of the sector. If this is the case in the United States where his smartphones have been known for years, the French have only discovered Pixel for a year.
