Pixel 5 that have almost similar specs (same sensor again ) but the pixel 4a (5g) have a bigger screen. Price will be key. Maybe the reason marc levoy left google cause his 'magic' only works with the same sony imx363 sensor

Google is probably shifting their focus on the mid tier market now.

They know they cannot compete in the premium market.

Nexus -> Pixel -> Pixus

But why plastic back for their flagship phone

But why plastic back for their flagship phone

There's good plastic and there's bad plastics. If done well, I prefer plastic over glass for a lighter phone.

But why plastic back for their flagship phone

You know, having owned glass back phones, I honestly don't like it. They can't sustain as much damage as plastic backs.

 

[JackDulouz]

I take a glass back over a plastic back any day. At least a glass back can withstand scratches better than any good plastic..

FYI, I used to own a Lumia 920...

If they gonna opt for plastic, make sure the price also keep it low.

**Look at Note 20**

Note 20 is different. One pays a premium for the "dong, dong" hollow sound and the special s/w tuning for the exynos 990.

Regardless of what back, we will put on case anyways to protect it.
I dont mind plastic back, but only if they make it colourful like pixel 2 or lumia phones.

problem is plastic backs = no wireless charging ?

 

[JackDulouz]

Plastic back is the easiest material for wireless charging. Remember the Nexus 5?
