    Is it me or is the Pixel 9 hype very low? I feel like nobody is expecting much from it

      Well, of course, google leaks everything months before so nobody cares now. Plus the google io was a big fiasco talking 2 hours about AI, completed skipped android 15 which is a pretty incremental release. As a result, everyone expects the same from this event too. Meaningless ai everywhere

          I always watch it because of the android releases (phone, watch etc) but this year’s was such a big letdown. It ruined my day

      I don’t think I’ve seen any hype for any new phone releases for a while. And that’s OK, the technology has matured a lot so there isn’t that much to get hyped about anymore. The foldable phones are pretty cool, hoping that they become affordable in the next decade!

      Same old slow chipset, ugly design (personally), software locked features rather than hardware limits
