The Pixel 4 was Google’s 2019 flagship, and it is also the only Pixel ever made with Soli radar. Instead of a fingerprint sensor, it reads your face with radar and a 3D camera, and the wide forehead bezel exists to hold that hardware. Nobody buys this phone new in 2026. It reaches Pakistan as a used or imported unit, and the price here reflects what a Pakistani retailer lists today — Rs. 26,000 — not a launch price.
Design and Display
The Pixel 4 is a small, light phone: 147.1 × 68.8 × 8.2 mm and 162 g, with glass front and back and an aluminium frame. It carries an IP68 rating, so it survives a dunk to 1.5 metres for 30 minutes. The 5.7-inch P-OLED screen runs at 1080 × 2220 with a 90Hz refresh rate, Gorilla Glass 5 on top, and HDR with full DCI-P3 colour. The big forehead is the trade-off for the Soli radar and the face-recognition cameras, and it is the one thing that dates the design.
Performance
The Snapdragon 855 and 6GB of RAM still handle daily use without fuss — calls, WhatsApp, YouTube, maps, and the camera all feel quick. The Adreno 640 GPU runs most games, though demanding titles at high settings will show the chip’s age. Heavy multitasking is the other limit: 6GB is enough for the usual apps, but it is not generous by 2026 standards. This is a 2019 chip, and it behaves like one when pushed.
Camera
- Main: 12.2MP, f/1.6, with OIS and dual pixel autofocus — the lens that does most of the work, and the one behind Google’s Night Sight.
- Telephoto: 16MP with 2x optical zoom and OIS — the difference from the Pixel 3, and genuinely useful for portraits and distant subjects.
- Selfie: 8MP ultrawide front camera, plus a TOF 3D sensor that powers face recognition.
There is no ultrawide rear lens, which is the one camera gap in an otherwise strong setup. Video records 4K at 30fps and 1080p up to 120fps, with gyro-EIS keeping handheld clips steady. Google’s processing still holds up in 2026: daylight shots look clean, and Night Sight remains a real advantage at this price.
Battery and Charging
The 2,800mAh battery was small even in 2019, and on a used unit it is the first thing to check. Expect a day of light use at best, and less if you spend time on the camera or mobile data. Charging is 18W wired over USB Power Delivery 2.0, and Qi wireless charging is included. Buyers should ask for the battery health reading before paying — a tired battery turns a good deal into a constant search for a charger.
Software
The Pixel 4 launched on Android 10 and was updated to Android 13, which is where it stops. Google ended support in October 2022, and there have been no security patches since. That matters for banking apps and for safety in general, so buyers who care about updates should look at a newer Pixel instead. What remains is clean Android with no skin and no bloat, which is part of the phone’s appeal.
Price in Pakistan
The expected price of the Google Pixel 4 in Pakistan is Rs. 26,999. That figure comes from the zmobiles.pk listing at Rs. 26,000, rounded up to the nearest ,999 as this site does, and it is the only current Pakistani listing found — mymobile.pk does not list the Pixel 4. MobileDokan’s BDT figures were not used: its table lists ৳84,000 and ৳94,000 for the two storage variants, which convert to roughly Rs. 187,000 and Rs. 210,000 — seven to eight times today’s Pakistan retail, and a misleading basis for a buyer in 2026. The phone is sold as a used or imported unit, so the price you actually pay will vary with condition, PTA status, and the seller.
Buying in Pakistan
- Check the exact model number and IMEI on DIRBS before paying — PTA status varies from unit to unit.
- Confirm whether the unit is PTA-approved or non-PTA, and what that means for the price quoted.
- Ask for the battery health percentage; a 2,800mAh battery on a used phone is the main risk.
- Buy from a seller who offers a checking warranty, and test the face recognition, both cameras, and the speakers in the shop.
Final Verdict: Buy it for the camera and the 90Hz screen
The Pixel 4 earns its price with the camera and the smooth P-OLED display, both of which still beat most phones near Rs. 27,000. The battery is small, the updates are over, and there is no ultrawide lens — but if those limits are acceptable, a used Pixel 4 is one of the cheapest ways to get a genuinely good camera phone in Pakistan.
