With the amount of bugs that Pixels have on a consistent basis, the higher price definitely is not warranted.

With the amount of bugs that Pixels have been exaggerated to have on a consistent basis, the higher price definitely is warranted especially when you compare it to other platforms that don't even have capable 5G access.

I'd never buy a phone that forces you to use AI slop so Google can lie to investors about how many Gemini users they have, but these price hikes make me want to buy a Pixel even less

So it’s going to cost more to be a beta tester for Google. A fool and his money, etc. I’ll pass.

I could not agree more. Only a fool would pay more for a device that is prone to be in a consistent "Bug Loop".

We would love to be beta testers for Google, Samsung and IPhone plus any brand that's interested in having a non biased straight forward opinion. The Pixel brand we think gets a lot of negative reviews because Android is still and open source program therefore some updates pushed to the device may be rogue dressed in an official cloak.

To combat this Google can scale down and revoke previous staff logins to the official push to device portal.

When reviewing phones we will put them to the maximum test with battery use, camera, video and all required tests. We don't down play efforts we will only advice you if we think your product could use some improvements in some areas.

And once again nobody is forced to buy a new phone when they come out. Price hike? Don't buy the latest model, pretty simple.

What if someone broke their phone and really needs to upgrade? They can downgrade to a mid-tier phone for around the same price, but why is this predatory practice allowed?

So you going to voice that same hypocrisy at Apple, Samsung, and Huawei, or is making anti Pixel posts the only thing you can do for clicks these days?

Seems like PA is in desperate need for clicks these days, so they rely on the super intelligent, handsome Playboy to engage the readers. Then there's the ignorant Huawei zealot who's still mad because an old 🫏 Android phone has more functionality than a Huawei device. Madder than that 🤡 Kamal used to be with BlackBerry lol.


"I could not agree more. Only a fool would pay more for a device that is prone to be in a consistent "Bug Loop"."

😏 Spoken by the biggest one of them all.
