Artem is an idiot.

This article is complete BS and obviously sponsored.  My 4XL has been amazing so far.  Outperforms any other phone I've tried.  Fast, responsive, and awesome features.  I'm sick of seeing crap like this article!

Lol how much do you think apple and Samsung pays for these reviews. Every single pixel release cycle these articles come out.

Click bait indeed!

The issue regarding Artem's devise are clearly unique to Artem. Perhaps something to do with the backup of old apps and data or simply an app with dirty code installed (Common knowledge btw, always start fresh with a new device). This phone has had such a hard time since release, people just love to focus on the negative and articles like this just perpetuate said trend. The usual spec off bullsh*t is quite frankly ridiculous and incredibly short sighted, even the mighty MKBHD gets lost in the spec off madness. This is hands down the best android experience money can buy you right now. For example, the Galaxy s10+ is a pretty effing amazing right?....Pixel 4xl is way beyond it in terms of speed and everyday user experience, so why so much disdain for the Pixel 4xl?

There's a lot of sheep out there basically. Sad times.

I have the Pixel 4XL and have not experienced anything like this so far. Its very fast and I've had no issues with anything lagging in the camera department, battery life etc.

My Pixel 4XL is awesome. It's super fast and responsive. The battery life is actually pretty surprising. I got 6 hours screen on time. All this slandering for no reason. I don't get the complaints with battery life either, yes it's small. But the Pixel 2 had smaller battery sizes and no one seemed to complain. The Pixel 4 is a better phone than these articles make it seem

Why are you set at slandering the pixel 4. I've had mine since day one and it's been fantastic. Not a single issue. Stop spreading lies.

Clickbait title.. It's a bug as happen with other zillion other devices..but whatever sells your story right?

My Pixel 4XL is super fast and just yesterday I got 7.5 hours on screen time with seriously heavy usage. I don't know how the battery lasted so long because all I read are horrible reviews on battery life and such. I have not disabled any setting in my Pixel 4XL and just freaking love this phone. People just love to hate that's all it is. Y'all it's a frickin phone and I personally believe it's one of the best phones I've ever owned. I will say it's better than my Pixel 3XL and that's saying a lot. I have had phones from pretty much every manufacturer and nothing comes as close to perfection than using a phone with a pure Google Android experience. This article was a joke. Oh and Motion Sense works flawlessly for me in every sense of the word so people just quit making crap worse than it is just to jump on the bandwagon to seem cool. Trust me it doesn't make you cool it makes you look like an iSheep!!!

No issues here... Also had no issues with my pixel 2xl. People install crap I'm their phone that breaks it and blame it on the phone... Sad

I think people are trying to dump on this phone. I have ZERO issues with mine. I have none of the issues here. Fast and buttery smooth. Look at speed tests on YouTube. It is on par with one plus for speed.

Artem's Pixel may well have some issue whether caused by the user, a backup, some peculiar app, or a device fault. FWIW opening those same apps on mine is under a second. I suspect the vast majority of users are finding their personal experiences with theirs closer to mine  rather than Artem's.

The article headline would imply they all are performing the same as Mr Russakovskii's which is plainly not the case. It's hard to find topics fairly portrayed anymore since "hey, look at me, LOOK AT ME, over here" is more important than accuracy for too many writers.

You'd be right except that the  headline never says it's a universal issue, and the article itself points out the fact that it's an almost isolated problem (although others have corroborated Artem's experience).

Look... if you're a happy Pixel 4 and 4 XL user, then good for ya buddy. But if there are valid issues with someone else's, your own personal xp does not negate his or her's.

Defective phone or not you all paid the same "premium" and Google shouldn't be defended when issues arise.

And at least this guy erred on the positive even while having highlighted said issues, he didn't roll on the floor with tantrum and immediately RMA'ed his phone. He's being constructive and are sticking with it to continue with proper bug reporting.

Fans shouldn't be idiotic zealots who PAID A COMPANY to end up having to defend the ones who took their money. Instead scrutinize what you've paid good money for.

Those saying they aren't seeing the same issue as the one phone that Artem owns is hardly being an idiotic zealot. Isn't it more likely that one single phone is the outlier since his is the only complaint I find about lag despite who knows how many Pixel 4 XL is use by consumers?
