The Google Pixel and Pixel XL smartphones were announced at the ‘Made By Google’ event in San Francisco. Pre-order for these devices will start from 13 Oct on Flipkart, Croma and Reliance Digital along with the Google store. The base model is priced at Rs 57,000.
In order to make switching from an iPhone to a Pixel easier, Google has bundled in a Quick Switch Adapter. While switching between Android phones is easier since your data is backed up on your Google account, doing that from an iPhone can get a bit more time consuming.
You will need to use the old data cable of your iPhone, with one end connected to the lightning port and the other USB port connected to the adapter which is connected to the USB Type C port on the Google Pixel/PixelXL.
Once the connection is established, the Pixel smartphone will guide you through a set of instructions on how to go about. The transfer process is compatible with iPhones as well as iPads which run iOS version 8 and above.
You will need to switch off iMesssages and FaceTime from your iOS settings before removing the SIM card from the iPhone/iPad. You also need to ensure that the Pixel/PixelXL is at least 50 percent charged before the transfer process begins. In the process you are asked to log into your Google account and you are asked what all you want to transfer between the phones. Options include contacts, calendar events, photos, videos, music, SMS messages and iMessages.
