Of course we are not going to forget the Google Pixel, the youngest of the family and in the coming days, as we are going to do today, we are going to offer you a few alternatives.

Samsung Galaxy S7 edge

Without a doubt, one of the great alternatives to the Google Pixel XL is the successful Samsung Galaxy S7 edge, which has a screen of the same size, although in this case it is curved on its sides. It also offers us enormous power and several of the things that we miss in the Google terminal. Its price will not be a problem either since we can even get something cheaper than the Pixel given the continuous reductions that are taking place in the price of the South Korean company's terminal.

  • Dimensions: 150.9 x 72.6 x 7.7 mm

Its careful design, its outstanding camera or the enormous power that it provides to all its Huawei terminals are some of the compelling reasons to think about acquiring this terminal.

Perhaps the only negative aspect compared to the Google Pixel is the software that it incorporates and that is that despite having Android 6.0 installed inside, it incorporates the sometimes uncomfortable layer of Huawei customization compared to the stock Android that we find in the Pixel XL.

OnePlus 3

Come from China we meet him OnePlus 3, which has the possibility of being able to boast of being first terminal with 6GB of RAM, which unfortunately have given him more problems than benefits. Its price is one of its great advantages compared to the Google Pixel XL and in general compared to most of the so-called high-end mobile devices on the market.

Its performance has not finished convincing most of the users, but still it presents some more than interesting features and specifications;

  • Dimensions: 152.7 x 74.7 x 7.35 mm
  • Weight: 158 grams
  • Display: AMOLED 5.5 inches and a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels (401 ppi)

  • Connectivity: HSPA, LTE, NFC, Dual-SIM, Bluetooth 4.2
  • Battery: 3.000 mAh
  • Operating System: Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 with Oxygen OS
