Why so hard to get Pixel phone one?

Pixel still alright. Mostly low stocks are P6Pro

 

[Barracudaz]

Same. Received an email from q10 saying it’s shipped out yesterday

Have you received your phone already?

 

[marxace]

quick initial reactions. phone gets hot easily. am just fiddling with the phone and it already feels hot to me.. Very top heavy. display seems washed out or not as crisp as the s21plus i am using. camera dun seem to be better than s21+. fingerprint works fine for me..hmm all in all, this phone does not excite me enough to continue setting up and using it haha......

Yes saw this in their Carousell ad.

In the end I went with Ringke available at shoppee and lazada.

@altca4 So you got your phone already?

Ya, got my stormy black p6p 256gb 26hrs ago

I beg to differ.
Heat is ok, gets warm but nothing unbearable. Nothing to worry at all.
Weight wise, I was using s21U so it got lighter! It’s nothing compared to when I’m using a Fold 2.
Also I’m used to single handling iPad Pro 12inch 2021 so it’s very manageable.
Camera is up there with the big boys for sure, snappier than s21U which is quite noticeable in lower light settings so I consider it superior vs s21U generally till you zoom >10X. S21U is the winner in stable looong zoom.
As expected, it loses out to Vivo X70p+ in human shot and low light and video stability (this one is the king of Imaging for human subject & lowlight in 2021 smartphones).
I was playing and shooting my 5yo’s birthday cake session for 2hrs ish in fairly low light condition with fidgety kids.
P6p is likely the best choice for HDR shots.
I don’t have SP applied yet, so fingerprint sensor works like a charm, just that wee bit slower than s21U (which is the gold standard in 2021)
For crashed apps, just reinstall and all issues resolved, that’s true so far, at least for my encounters with my 107+ apps (I initially transferred them from s21U)
Battery seemed ok, trending towards 4.5-5hr screen on time, (s21U is 6-6.5hrs for me)
Better batt life than X1iii
Pixel is smooooth! Although I find VX70p+ to be speedier in terms of app d/l and installation.
S21U have better speakers.
P6p have very nice clicky buttons and very nice haptics
I really really hate the vanilla Android 12 app drawer, it’s a handicap … so I downloaded 3rd party launcher… that’s what I hated most so far.
Otherwise, I’m impressed, p60p is a great phone and is a worthy flagship.
The negativity & bad reviews are likely due to outrageous expectations. (Probably the wrath of both fruit & sam fans) . Does one expect pixels to dethrone the iPhones & galaxies? LOL, they will co exist (romance of 3 kingdoms is awesome)
And, yes, it’s replacing s21U as my main driver.
I haven’t used a Samsung flagship phone for >5months since galaxy s2 till s21U and after 10 months, it’s slowing down (just that little but it’s noticeable)… Sammy & their notorious slowdowns (mine is the HK SD version btw)

addon 17Nov21: Volte on StarHub without tweaking any settings. No connectivity issues so far
