Massive Google Pixel Update (March 2020) | New Features Tested

Google's huge Pixel phone update for March 2020 adds tons of new features to your Pixel 2/3/3a/4 and XL handset, making this one of the biggest Android rollouts for these own-brand mobiles. I've checked out those updates on my Pixel 4, so here's a full review of the best bits.

First up there's a new Car Crash Detection feature, which can alert the emergency services if your phone thinks you've had an accident. This will rollout in the UK, US and Australia, for owners of Google's latest flagships. Google Pay has also been improved to make it easier to use, while scheduling has been added to Android 10's Dark Mode.

The new Rules feature works with Pixel 2 ad upwards, from the March 2020 update. This is a basic form of automation which will hopefully be upgraded soon. And the Pixel's selfie smarts has also been improved in this patch, with new depth sensing options for the auto mode.

Google has also improved its Motion Sense feature for its branded smartphones, with a pause/resume feature added to the gestures. Emojis and Duo have also been upgraded.
