Google Pixel reportedly saw absolutely massive 3x growth in North America in just one month, but it seems too good to be true.

      Except for all the posts about issues and workarounds I see about graphene. That’s what’s holding me back from switching from iPhone. I’d love to switch but I don’t want another project so I’m waiting and watching hoping for the day

        At some point you might just have to just accept it warts and all. Sometimes you can’t wait for the perfect and make it the enemy of the good. I’ve been running my phone in this way for about five or six years now and it’s definitely not perfect but you get used to it and eventually you’re happy with it. I feel so much better now that I’ve done it. And just for example, I had to help my mom with her Google Pixel because Google Play Services seems like it fucked up an update and forced her to factory reset because her phone was getting all kinds of hot and acting weird. And I reset fixed it, but I didn’t have to deal with that crap.

          I’ve never felt that interested in flagship phones. Why does anyone buy them if they have warts? Budget phones have similar warts but at least they are affordable. I don’t understand what the Pixel 9 has going for it other than some niche features here and there. I’m not trying to diss Pixel 9 buyers but if I wanted a Pixel at all, I’d probably get an older model. Maybe I’m missing something.
