I still have to go fail fail fail ah just enter your pattern all the time let's see how reliable this one is wow it just worked that was fast too now the phone's unlocked we're gonna try out all of the cool AI features that look exciting but maybe are just gimmicks okay so for all my demos I want to do them on the non-pro because I figure if they work with this thing with this 12 gigabytes of RAM surely it'll work with this thing and it's 16 gigabytes of RAM holy apple give people RAM I'm really excited for the new admi feature so you just scroll over to it in the camera app and now I give this to my friend to take a picture of me and now we can see the results there we are I mean your ARM is gone what is that mixed results I guess I wonder if I could generate a fill that in though that's another part of this whole package they had magic eraser before now they have magic editor edit magic editor button please back up this photo to use magic yeah oh they're always trying to get you to back up those jerks all right here we go reimagine as he's got a long sleeve shirt on whoa basically looks like there's a cushion they added a cushion to your hand which actually is an improvement it's nonsensical but at least it's not like a gaping hole oh actually I just I'm just gonna erase even more of you whoa here we go what I chose to erase the hole and it filled the hole with something that looks more like an ARM that's actually the best one yet oh look at this zany picture of Linus let's just edit this without his permission using AI so I have this cool reimagine thing where you can just I don't know select the background oh it's kind of a whack background to choose here we go that's pretty good we'll reimagine that to be space full of stars and nebula look at that there's Linus in space with like an ironing board behind his head or something so much room for creativity pixel screenshots is an app but now there's AI features we can turn on search your screenshots with on device AI let's do it because man it can be hard to find an old screenshot of like a receipt or something now I'm gonna search for a screenshot and I'm gonna say how long does it take your passport to be renewed and there it is I mean not a really super hard task since it has the word passport right in the image but let's see if I can do it based on another thing like show me a screenshot that is white couldn't do it black text on a white background couldn't do it got some limitations let's try the next thing in keep there's now this magic list function here it's saying help me create a list create a shopping list for a keto friendly cheesecake except don't include cream cheese because I already have a bunch of my fridge here it is keto cheesecake shopping list no cream cheese I am not keto currently but I have been in the past and I've made a lot of cheesecakes and I can confirm this looks realistic enough but what about how much I need of each thing kind of a gap another AI feature is clear calling so we're gonna see how the person using the pixel sounds when they are vacuuming so why don't you take the phone and the vacuum Jake bell yes sir and I'll take your iPhone I'm vacuuming outside just vacuuming the sidewalk your vacuuming right now I'm vacuuming right now I'm gonna stop talking you can see if you can hear it I still don't hear me vacuuming no not at all I'm vacuuming that is actually and awesome that's amazing compare that to this other recording where it's off I'm talking I'm talking in the vacuuming Google did announce another feature called call notes that I wanted to try you would get to it but during a call by hitting the more button and pressing the button right there for it but it's not available it might be because we're in Canada but unfortunately we can't use it it doesn't just transcribe your call actually gives a summary so for that call it would have said something like Jake is vacuuming and describes the quality of the call to James something like that this is actually a feature that iOS 18 is gonna have as well and so those of you on the beta might be using it already I would love to show you but I'm sorry next I want to see how sweet the video quality is when I'm zoomed into 5x on the pro model so let's hit a video let's look at these beautiful gentlemen over here boom I'm zoomed in now I did get a toast that came up and said that frame rate was reduced when I was super zoomed and you can definitely see a lot of jitter in the viewfinder as I moved around it's actually super whack and I'm hoping it doesn't appear in the final video so let's check all right here it is and the jitter is definitely still in the final video there's another thing I want to try called video boost where you send the processing of a video off to Google servers for some time and it makes a lot of things better including the clarity of 20x videos so let's zoom into Jake bell's face and processing is finally done and it's way better it's not perfect but it is way better also here's a bunch of photos taken with both phones and in pixel tradition they look great one of the design changes they had this time around was a large vapor chamber to help cool the phone and it turns out that doesn't make a difference whether you get a large pro or just a smaller non-pro because both these phones performed almost identically in genshin impact getting 46 average FPS and 45 average FPS and even the one percent lows were within one frame of each other at 40 and 39 not a stunning result would like to get 60 the game was on a high preset and the tensor g4 is not really a gaming optimized chip so if you're a huge gamer this might not be the phone for you as for battery tests we did not do a battery longevity test but what we did do is a how long does it take to charge tests we did lots of those it basically 30 minutes will get you 50 battery on either of these phones despite them having different battery sizes and it takes about an hour and a half to get a hundred percent note though that that is with a 30 watt charger and as i said before these are available 45 watt chargers so expect those times to be significantly shorter if you do opt to buy a larger charging adapter or wall wart now let's talk price and worth the cheapest one is 800 bucks to go to the pro it's another 200 bucks at a thousand to go up in size an additional $100 for $1100 now the thing that makes it difficult to assess the value of this phone this phone that is marketed as being an ai phone is two things number one i can get the gemini app on my old pixel how many of these cool features that i want this phone because of are going to be tripling down to my phone or maybe i can even do now definitely some of them and the second thing is that some of these new ai features you're going to need to have a premium gemini ai google one account which the pro models do come with a year of for free free i don't know which features require that subscription and i don't know how sticky they'll get by the time that free trial expires such that i'm very disappointed and really feel compelled to keep paying a subscription i don't want to pay a subscription and so that just makes it really hard to assess whether you need to upgrade at all and if you do do you need to have the subscription i don't know you guys just wait till you break your screen i guess as always but let's say you do upgrade should you get the pro or the regular one i mean the decision to get the largest screen that's just up to you do you want a big phone 100 bucks but pro versus non-pro that's coming down to more RAM the 5x telephoto slightly different industrial design brighter screen if you're outdoors a lot selfie cam that says more megapixels on the pro stuff you guys why don't you let me know in the comments whether you think that $200 delta is worth it in this case why rata why don't you watch our video on the samsung s24 i mean you'd be remiss if you didn't at least look at that phone if you're in the market for one of these right"}
