The Google Pixel 3 was unveiled to the world as the modern age's prime Android smartphone platform for any true aficionado. But it looks like the Google Pixel 3 has problems under the hood that may take any excited buyer by surprise when it goes to market.
Zach Epstein of BGR talks about noticing a serious design flaw during the site's review of the Google Pixel 3. The flaw is apparently serious enough to consider for anyone thinking about getting the new Google phone.
While BGR has found the Google Pixel 3 to be a great smartphone for Google's “pure Android” design philosophy, it may have an issue with its audio hardware. According to Epstein, the Google Pixel 3's front-firing stereo speakers are so loud that they cause particularly strong vibrations in the phone.
BGR's review points out that the vibrations are already noticeable even at low volumes. Apparently, BGR noticed that when using the front-firing stereo speakers, the Google Pixel 3 vibrates even harder than the actual vibration motors the phone uses for its notifications. Epstein recommends buyers to consider the fact that playing sounds from the phone at high volumes will be uncomfortable for some, or even downright unmanageable due to the strength of the audio vibrations.
Epstein mentions that this design flaw is hardly mentioned by other reviews talking about the Google Pixel 3 and its design strengths. If the issue about the Google Pixel 3's design flaw makes it to market, Epstein predicts that it could be a bit of a smartphone scandal similar to when Apple makes design mistakes with their products.
Fans looking forward to seeing for themselves if the Google Pixel 3 has the supposed design flaw can get their units of Google's latest smartphone when it is released to the market on Oct. 18 in the United States. The rest of the world can grab their Google Pixel 3 by Nov. 1.
