Hard Reset - advantages and disadvantages Google Pixel XL?

In simple words, Hard Reset means hard resetting the phone. As a result, the system automatically returns to the factory settings and the system is completely cleared. Contacts, correspondence, application, files, search queries, passwords - all of this is deleted from the device's memory.

Benefits of Hard Reset:
Ability to clear the phone to factory settings.
Removal of viruses that interfere with work and give permanent errors.
Solving problems that have arisen due to the conflict of some applications and those remaining after they were removed from the phone.

Disadvantages of Hard Reset:
Permanently deletes all data on the device.
The need to back up contacts and all user data.
Not all viruses on Android will be removed after a factory reset.


What needs to be done before the Hard Reset operation.
Before doing a hard reset on your phone, be sure to make sure that you know the login / password for accessing your google account.
You can sign out of your google account before resetting. Then you do not need to enter the login password to your Google account and you can immediately use your device.
In case you have already done a factory reset and cannot remember the login and password for logging into your Google account, for most models there are instructions for bypassing protection (FRP).
Not all owners of new phone models will be able to bypass the protection of the FRP and for this they will need to contact the official service center.

After performing a hard reset, your device will be completely wiped clean. Everything that was in the memory of your device will be deleted.

What can be done to avoid losing important information?
If important information remains in the memory of your phone, then there are the following options to save it:

Synchronize your phone with Google contacts, Google drive.
Backup your data, contacts and media.
Transfer contacts, media files and important data to your PC using service programs for your smartphone model.
