Bad news for those who have just bought the Google Pixel 4 XL at its launch, as the latest reports that have begun to appear by users show some malfunctions that should not be expected in a high-end Smartphone. The main one focuses on lag effects in video recording with its main camera .

Strictly Artem Russakovskii, who is part of the specialized media Android Police, has published on his social media accounts the main problems he has encountered after only two days of use , something that has also already been confirmed by other people through forums like Reddit. Was Google wrong to launch the Pixel 4 XL in its current state?

Main failures of Google Pixel 4 XL: Pixel 4 XL suffers from lag problems with its camera and other details

Pixel 4 XL does not maintain a stable 30 fps during 4K video recording

There are different points that have already been reported, from a facial recognition system that seems to take longer than expected to enable access to the mobile, through a refresh rate of 90 Hz for its screen that does not remain stable and has drops occasional, and now problems related to the video recording result.

It is worth noting that Google Pixel 4 XL is capable of obtaining videos in a native 4K resolution and with a rate of 30 images per second . However, this is not maintained at all times and the drop in frames can easily be detected in some moments of the recording. The saddest thing is that these types of details had already been presented in the Pixel 3 XL , so it is surprising that they have not been fixed for this generation.

Not only the aforementioned indicates a performance that is not up to the demands, because at the software level there are other failures such as the delay in loading some applications . For example, the Settings section can take up to five seconds to run, while Spotify also takes longer than average.

In conclusion, for a mobile that asks for more than $ 800 for it, these are problems that should not exist , and even more so when alternatives such as OnePlus 7 Pro with a lower cost of more than $ 200 do not reflect any type of performance failures. Hopefully a quick update will correct the situation in the coming weeks.
