No... Sorry just no Nexus line was an Affordable/ value reference implantation of Android Pixel is an overpriced atrocity marketing platform for Google. Pixel IS NOT a replacement for Nexus

  The "a" Pixels are pretty much in the same space as Nexus was.

  I think the Nexus 6 cost $50 more than the Pixel 6 does, even before you take inflation into account

    Might be true for Nexus 6, but Nexus 4 was from $299 at launch and had flagship specs. Nexus 5 was $399, again an affordable phone.

    The Nexus 6P has the same spec's as the FlagShip Pixel for 1/2 the price

      6P was $500, Pixel 1 was $650, Pixel 1 XL was $750. https://www.theverge.com/2015/9/29/9410551/google-nexus-6p-announced-size-price-release-date https://www.theverge.com/2015/9/29/9410551/google-nexus-6p-a... https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2016/10/google-pixel-review-bland-pricey-but-still-best-android-phone/ https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2016/10/google-pixel-review-...

  So, every time a company increases prices, it "kills" something? By that logic, every company kills nearly everything, every time.

    When they double the price, in a single year, with no real spec increase, and no other justification other than profits yes that it killing it

Honestly some of the things that website includes seem a bit wacky to me. I feel similarly about the Google Home Max. Was it really killed in 2020, if the latest version of the firmware came out in 2022? Can we say that Google killed the Pixel 4, since the hardware is no longer being sold but it's still receiving updates? The inclusion of Angular 1 is also kinda questionable to me. Even though Angular 1 code isn't totally forwards compatible, there is a pretty clear migration path for moving to Angular 2 and beyond

  I know many Angular 1 devs that would disagree, and who moved away from Angular all together do to the changes with Angular 2 to them, google killed Angular.
