Upgrading from a Pixel 3 XL to a Pixel 4 means a year-over-year improvement in terms of performance, but it also means going from the XL-sized to the regular-sized Pixel. That means a smaller display size. The Pixel 4 display did pick up Smooth Display, which means up to a 90hz refresh rate, and it measures in at 5.7-inches (down from 6.3 on the Pixel 3 XL). The Pixel 4 also picks up the newer Snapdragon 855 processor and bumps the RAM from 4GB (on the 3 XL) to 6GB. Other highlights include up to 128GB of internal storage, a 2800 mAh battery, the addition of a 16MP telephoto camera on the back.
