    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.

      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.

          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?

      Yeah… My Pixel 6 Pro is the best phone I’ve ever had, and I don’t even intended to upgrade until the Pixel 11 at least. So, you’re just wrong.

        People using 5 generation old phones are the exact market for pixel phones thanks for making my point for me

          Uhh, yeah no… A phone with a processor that’s equivalent to something from like 4 generations ago isn’t gonna cut it. Even then, that processor would be less powerful than the Tensor G1 in my Pixel 6 Pro. If you’re concerned about data sharing, just get a Pixel and put CalyxOS or GrapheneOS on it. More secure anyways, and you still get much better hardware along with it.

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