I bought a Pixel last weekend. This phone to my experience is very good. Now, I want to back up the data on my phone to my computer. I want to use a quick and accurate method.

 
We can manually back up the phone data to the computer, but this approach is a bit cumbersome, especially in the case of very many mobile phone data. Therefore, I will introduce a software which is named Android Data Recovery. It can help you quickly back up your mobile phone data, without missing any of your data, and it's organized. In addition, it can also help you to restore the backup from the computer data to any supported Android devices. It can be said that the software is versatile. The software can now be compatible with more than 6 thousand Android devices. What's more, you can directly restore your lost and deleted data from Pixel/Pixel XL as well as other Android devices by using this tool.
