What about updates?
I've purchased my Nexus 5x just a couple of months ago. Since it's a two-year-old model, you can also get it for a fraction of a flagship model (~$200), and, well, since I've purchased it brand new, I still have a year of security updates + a warranty that lasts exactly that. And on top of that, pure vanilla Android experience + whatever Google comes up with in the meanwhile (for example, I have Google Fi, Pixel camera app, Android Oreo, fingerprint reader at the same spot as this $1000 phone).
Next year I might buy the Pixel (original, not 2). My point is, if that I continue with what I've started this year, I'll upgrade to the next two-year-old Google phone, receive the latest and greatest features (that non-Google-made flagship models still don't have at the time) and I'll receive upgrades constantly.
- user-on1 9y agobut u cudnt have got it from google store. if it runs into boot loop wat wud u do?
- r3bl 9y agoWorst case scenario: it's just 200 bucks. I never plan on buying a phone that I would be devastated with the amount lost (like, 1000 bucks) if something ever happens to it for whatever reason.
- user-on1 9y agoIf not Google store where else is it best to buy from, where did u buy from? So tat they respond with warranty n stuff without 100s of emails n calls.
- k__ 9y agoI saw 2 problems with updates. Either you don't get them and your apps stop working one by one after some time. Or you get them and performance goes downhill until your apps stop working one by one after some time The only solution I found was to get a new device every 3-4 years.
