Now that they are not customisable going forwards, pixels are useless. Mid range phones that are overpriced with terrible support and janky features.
They were the only phones I would reasonably buy due to their ability to be customizable... Yeah this pretty much puts a nail in the coffin of using a Pixel in my book as well.
How are they less customizable now?
1100€ for a phone with 128gb of storage is absurd.
man, i just hope my pixel 7 lasts long enough that a viable alternative emerges. i just cant go back to a stockrom filled to the brim ai bullshit, other bloat and spyware.
Good news is that Pixel phones prices drop fast. For example, the price of Pixel 9 dropped from 900€ to 550€ in less than one year.
Saaaaame.
I'm hoping to upgrade to the 10 this year. Memory and storage are the biggest thorns in my side now. A bump to 12GB of RAM should bring me back into "good enough" territory for the next few years (I hope) but 128GB of storage is no good.
Can't bring myself to switch brands at this point. GrapheneOS is just too good to give up.
The 12GB will not actually be available for apps. 4GB will be reserved for gemini nano. So, in effect you will only have 8GB of RAM.
Sadly the prices are increasing across the board rather than lowering.
Let me know when they finally decide to make their devices everywhere and not in just 20 countries like it's a startup
Guess I'm keeping the Pixel 9 then
People still upgrade year on year?
Have they figured out how to do a foldable that's not fragile AF yet?
