The new Google Pixel and Pixel XL are currently the most celebrated phones, but they also come with a few drawbacks that may just turn off other customers.

While the Google Pixel and Pixel XL have fast charging support, they do not support wireless charging. Also, the smartphones only come with IP53 ratings which means they cannot survive any water submersion. Most flagship phones are now dust and water resistant, but the Pixels just do not have this feature.

According to USTechPortal, other cons of the devices include their single SIM slot and non-removable battery design. The Pixel smartphones also have only one speaker.

The Google Pixel and Pixel XL cameras have electronic image stabilization (EIS) and not OIS. The Google Pixel has a 12 megapixels rear camera with a f/2.0 aperture and an 8 megapixels selfie snapper with f/2.4 aperture. Google is targeting photographers with the new Pixel phones and is hoping to replace the Apple iPhone camera which is currently the most used snapper on image hosting website Flickr.

The Google Pixel XL is the bigger variant of the new "Made by Google" phone line. HTC manufactured the phones, but Google says that it developed the phone from design to its final finishes. The Pixel XL comes with a glass and aluminum build which looks like the HTC A9. It features a 5.5-inch AMOLED screen with 2,560 x 1,440 pixels resolution. It also runs on the Android 7.0 Nougat out of the box. The Pixel XL is capable of split-screen windows and a battery-saving Doze mode. The phone is also compatible with the Daydream View VR headset and has a 3,450 mAh battery source.
