If Google really release such a phone, I will pinch myself and think I am still dreaming. Chances are I am dreaming.

Unless google can produce own soc, screen etc, like samsung. Else buingy parts from other maufacturers. With low profit margin from pixels, and to save costs, provide customers low storage, rams... Hard to get the perfect specs we dreaming off ...

Google needs to start working on their own processors... Wear OS needs it badly.

For Phones, having their own processor will mean longer updates as they can plan ahead.

IMO, Apple's processors are basically only useful towards the end of the device's life.

all depends on the price.

savings against the Note 20 must be very significant since if rumors are true and the Pixel 5 uses a mid-range processor... it will be tough to spend 1K on a mid-range spec device

actually i think pixel should just stick to nexus's formula.

it was winning until they jack up the price.

:( moi still holding on to my nexus 6p with autoshut down at 30%

good old days of mid range, double speakers, 1440p, headphone jack

I'm glad I'm not the only one doing it. But I gave up a week ago when it starts shutting down at 50%. Got a pixel 3aXL. Missed the screen resolution nexus6p has. And yeap got it during the preorder and was still using the free case. Lol

It all boils down to your budget. Pixels are not value phones.

Like there will always be a market for branded clothing and bags.

If you want value, then skip the branded stuff.

:s13::s13: yeah I was also in that thread too spamming about the delivery

The earbuds spoiled after a few months, case is still unused, had my battery change for free at Huawei after 1 year of using even though I didn't have the battery shutdown problem :s22::s22:

Most folks like to romanticize the good times of Nexus 6P.. but forgot abt the mediocrity of the Nexus 6/5/4..
