Year after year, Google keeps reminding us its hardware line is not something's it's taking seriously. They sell phones in a ridiculously small number of countries, and without fail, they can't even do it without hiccups. And when you actually get a device, there's often some hardware issue, or annoying bugs, and sometimes both.
(Writing this on a Pixel 5).
- seized 5y agoMy Pixel 5 has been perfect. No bugs, glitches, hardware issues, etc. The only complaint I have is them removing the proper burst mode on the camera, but that was gone with the 4 series I think.
- zamalek 5y agoI gave up after my Pixel 4, now on a OnePlus. Google has consistently omitted something annoying on their phones. No wireless charging when everyone else has it, replacing a fingerprint scanner with face unlock (hello pandemic!), laughable battery life. They take 3 steps forward and 1 giant step back with each iteration. I wasn't willing to find out what stupid shit they would pull with the 6. The color grading on those photos, though. So sublime and authentic.
- rnotaro 5y agoI went from : Iphone 5 (New but not most recent) | Screen broke from the inside after 3 years \ -> Samsung Galaxy S7 (New but not most recent) | Friend made me great offer for 2XL -> Google Pixel 2XL (Used, 200 CAD) | gave the Galaxy S7 to my mother. She never had a Cellphone before. I'm heavily thinking about upgrading from 2XL to Pixel 6 (Not Pro) and giving my 2XL to my mother since the Galaxy is rebooting randomly even after a fresh reset. The Google Pixel 2 XL is the best phone i've ever owned and I've personally never had any issue with it.
