    i steered away from pixel after my 5a died, and the new ones have all the AI intensive chips in it, sacrificing its other features just to keep AI on life support. i went with the OP12R instead on the phone market, bought it mint pratically brand new. couldve went for a new one.

      Finally, small phones are back! Or possible big hands are back!

    The pixel has been over for years. They hardly do numbers anymore. People have moved on and Google still gonna put out a phone with 2 or 3 year old hardware for flagship price. They have to do stunts like this to get any press at all.

          So far, this phone isn’t enshittified, in my opinion. I have no problems with this phone. It’s beautiful, performant enough for what I need it to do, and more. Yes indeed, as long as I’m happy. What, me using this phone directly causes you to be unhappy? Indirectly?

      The popularity of pixels seems to be rising dramatically though? They’re at 14% market share as of October 2024, up 10% from September 2024.

    Given how Google has treated every other tablet it’s ever made or endorsed, you’re a moron if you buy this
