Pixel 4

The Google Pixel 4 is ready for business. With Pixel 4, you get security by design, ease of device management, and the helpfulness of Google at your fingertips to be ready for anything.

Security by design

  • Titan M2
    Our enterprise-grade security chip offers hardware-based protection. It’s tamper resistant, and designed to help secure the OS, so you can be sure that any sensitive work or data on your phone (like passwords) are safe.
  • OS and security updates
    With Pixel, your apps and OS are updated with the latest OS and security updates for at least 3 years.
  • Google Security Services
    Google’s Safe Browsing makes sure that employees can browse the way they need to while keeping their device safe, and Google Play Protect - the world’s most widely deployed mobile threat protection service — scans billions of apps every day to make sure your phone isn’t exposed to harmful or malicious apps, to make sure your data and device are secure.

Seamless Management

  • Zero-touch enrollment
    Deploy corporate-owned devices in bulk without having to manually setup each device. Just open the box and Pixel 4 is ready to go with management, apps and configurations all set, reducing the need for initial support.
  • Work Profiles
    With the ability to create OS level separation between personal and company data with work profiles, you can ensure that users’ corporate data never interacts with personal applications, keeping your organization’s data secure and compliant.
  • Management APIS
    A wide range of available management APIs makes it possible to enforce network configurations and policies, letting you customize the deployment of Pixel 4 the best way for your business.

Unparalleled Helpfulness

  • Android 10 with Pixel enhancements Give your employees a phone that already has everything they need and nothing they don’t, with secure automatic updates. There’s no unnecessary software on Pixel 4 to slow you down.
  • All day battery
    Not all workdays are 9 to 5, so you need a phone that can last. Get more done with Adaptive Battery, by preserving power for the apps and services they use most.
  • Call Screen
    Don’t let calls from unknown numbers derail your workday. Call Screen uses the Google Assistant to find out who’s calling and transcribe their answers — so you can decide whether to pick up or remain focused on the task at hand.

Innovation with Google

  • Pure Android
    Give your employees a phone that already has everything they need and nothing they don’t. There’s no bloatware on Pixel 3a to slow you down — it’s just pure Android, right out of the box.
  • Call screen
    Don’t let calls from unknown numbers derail your workday. Call Screen uses the Google Assistant to find out who’s calling and transcribe their answers — so you can decide whether to pick up or remain focused on the task at hand.
