> I very much appreciate the benefits of our CP laws, but unless the devices are manufactured to a different standard than those sold in other parts of the world, that cost / value isn't wrapped up into the sale price.
Maybe it is, through higher replacement rate due to longer warranty period?
- Jedd 6y agoCould well be. I've had Nexus, Pixel, then Pixel XL - since soon after the first Nexus. I have replaced (due to hardware failures) Nexus and Pixel, under Google's warranty, which was 2 years. I don't know if they offer 2y hardware warranty everywhere, or only in AU because they're obligated to. Either way - back to TFA, that 4A model is looking like the perfect upgrade for the original Pixel XL - slightly smaller handset, slightly larger display, 3.5mm audio jack, improved performance, more onboard RAM & storage, and lacking a hideous list price.
