I bought this piece of shit to replace my Pixel 7 Pro.It arrived today and I already requested a return.Dogshit battery life. Camera quality is the same just warmer white balance tendencies when comparing it directly with my 7 Pro.Digital zoom past 5x is MUCH uglier than my 7 Pro because it uses generative ai to output ugly ass disgusting ai hallucinations and artifacts.Heavy as fuck even heavier than the brick that is the 7 Pro. Yet still no battery life that even matches the average competitor phone. Still gets hot as fuck when charging or doing anything other than browsing the internet.FUCK GOOGLE I'M FUCKING DONE WITH PIXEL SHIT. I'm moving to other android brands.
Oh yeah I forgot €1300 for only 256GB non-expandable
>>106424148Yeah, I'm not buying a new phone until some privacy schizos create a viable alternative to locked down app stores.
HAHAHAHAHA phonefags enjoy your """premium cameras""" generating fake details on your $2k slabs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5MZNJQdWMs&t=80s
You could have removed android os and replaced it with GrapheneOS. its more secure and privacy minded
>>106424196No you can't. The drivers are no longer open source.Also you're still paying a premium for dogshit hardware
Should have gotten a P9P during the sale a month ago.
>>106424326Then it still wouldn't have been an upgrade
>>106424148why you retards keep buying google phones they're shit, Chinese phones way cheaper and better in everything. even buying iphone is still better than any google phone.
>>106424148>XLdisgusting
I really enjoyed my pixel 3a and my current 7 but I feel like Google has lost the plot with recent pixels. it had clean software with decent cameras. now you snap a photo and you get something completely different. honestly I had the most fun snapping photos with my huawei p20 pro in manual mode.the alternatives>Nothing Phone 3Camera not as good, price too high, doesn't even have ultrasonic fingerprint scanner lmao also overheats>One Plus 13not good camera>x200 ultra/oppo x8 prochinkphone software>samsunglolwhat else is there really. unironically starting to consider apple and im an android dev
>>106424148More overpriced shit with ads and a store. Not to mention the privacy violations you can opt out of as long as you don't tap "okay. got it."
>>106424195>listening to a trans>listening to a womanNo.
>>106424148hey, anons, what's the point of all new phones? a bit better cpu and camera, that's it? why not just <$200 xiaomi/samsung?
>>106424148It's ok sweetpie, GrapheneOS is not for everybody. The intelligence community has conveniently provided you gorgeous iBinkies to suck on.
>>106424202Coping seethe.
My plan is to buy a Pixel tablet for my next grapheneos phone, buy an openwrt compatible router, buy a USB cellular modem, and buy a battery powerbank, and integrate it into a bag of some sort so I have my own roving cellular hotspot. OpenWRT will give me the flexibility to control my network traffic and ensure it's routed over (more) secure transports than just the open cellular connection. As for telephony, I can have that easily covered with VOIP for any PSTN needs. The main idea is to get the baseband processor completely off the application processor hardware!
>>106427181You will never do this because:1. You're too lazy.2. The novelty will wear off. 3. You're fat.
>>106425879The linked timestamp shows a photo of a takeout menu, retard. None of the other journos who picked up this BING BING WAHOO could be bothered to test the AI shit on real text.
>>106427119See >>106424202
I bought a Pixel 9a a couple of weeks ago. This POS phone already has a cracked screen because it fell 30cm from my pocket while I was sitting on a bench. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE
>>106430081I also just got one and it feels fragile as fuck, like if you dropped it at all it'd be over
>>106424148>FUCK GOOGLE I'M FUCKING DONE WITH PIXEL SHIT. I'm moving to other android brands.The only reason to even own a Pixel or any Android phone is slowly being nullified anyway OP.Get an even worse Troonix phone instead OP.>>106424157>EU;SSR monopoly moneyLOL
>>106424202>>106429783Absolute retard. Fuck off.https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/115102473921005918
>>106425879Why do you have to be so retarded? What do you gain trough it?
>>106424157>I forgot €1300Didn't know anyone outside of burgerstan gets pixels. Never seen one in person.
>>106426072camera I guess since even $150 xiaomis are now fast as fuck for daily stuff.But then again no matter how good and expensive sensor is in phone they still make dogshit flatass lifeless sovless pics since there's no glass to back sensor up.
This goddamn NIGGER "let's just use the AI meme for fucking everything" stuff is disgusting. Fuck your AI.
>>106426072Yeah, it honestly doesn't make sense to buy flagships anymore. Even the worst $100 chinkphone is now more than enough for the usual stuff.
>>106424148I take it it's just as slippery as the 7 Pro? You could put the v7 Pixels on a surface with a 0.00000001 degree slope and the buggers would slowly slide down it.
>>106426072>>106430530Americans don't have access to Xiaomi or chinkphones.
>>106430981Kek very true my fucking 7 Pro always falls from any fucking surface that is not completely level.The 10 Pro XL has a bit less slippery back but the side frame is polished smooth aluminium instead of matte and grippy
>>106429783Suck your shotgun glowie.
>>106424148you forgot the part where the battery will be artificially degraded after just 200 charge cycles
>>106425629>pixel 3a i.e. 4gb of ramyou got duped
