Gone is Face Unlock, replaced by the old-school fingerprint scanner. The Motion Sense gestures that allowed you to use your hands to dismiss a phone call, skip over your playlist, silence an alarm and more, turned out to be useless for most, and the widely touted astrophotography feature was lost in space. The Pixel 5 is powered by the Snapdragon 765G which powers other handsets that would now be considered in the Pixel 5’s class such as the Motorola Edge, OnePlus Nord and the LG Velvet. Google did bump up the battery to 4,080mAh and hike the memory to 8GB; base storage has been doubled to 128GB. While there will be some who miss the idea of the flagship Pixel, others will embrace the lower pricing (starting at $699).
Along with today’s unveiling, Google released some videos to help promote the new Pixel 5 and the 5G version of the Pixel 4a. In the first video, Pixel marketing manager Maya Lewis introduces the 5G version of the Pixel 4a, Google’s latest mid-range series. The 5G version of the phone has a larger 6.2-inch OLED display compared to the 5.8-inch OLED screen on the non 5G variant of the phone. It is priced at $499 and up, bringing 5G to the masses. Returning to the Pixel 5, Lewis notes that device will sport wireless charging and reverse wireless charging. The latter allows users to share what is left of their battery life by using the rear panel as a wireless charging pad. Compatible devices like the new Google Pixel Buds can be charged in this fashion by placing the wireless charging case on the back of a Pixel 5. Shenaz Zack, Pixel Product Manager, discusses the software in this video and it was all about the 5G experience. She points out how movies can be downloaded in just seconds over a 5G network, and that YouTube videos are optimized for 5G speeds.
