The pixel is an incredible phone, it would definitely be my first choice if I ever switch away from Apple. Although the price could be restrictive in Chile I don’t know about that of course

Pixel phones have terrible battery life in my experience though. It takes good photos but I can barely get like 4 hours of SoT on my Pixel 7

Yeah, I would recommend it if you want a good phone for pics and videos, but the battery life is not good, and I do find Pixel UI buggy sometimes.

But the battery life in what scenario? peope using the phone all day? playing for some hours? or in general? thanks!

Thanks! Any suggestion on models? we have 4, 4a and 5 (in the budget range), after that, it jumps to the 7 pro (can't afford it)

I'll check the differences because the 5 is around 330USD, the 4a 440USD and then the 7pro is 950USD, but it's clear based on this thread that the Pixel has the advantage

I believe new pixel is going to be out in next month

2023-10-01 03:06

pixel is good, but I advise you to pay attention to Huawei P60 Pro and choose between them which one you like best

if you can afford it and if THE GOD DAMN CUSTOMER SERVICE OF IT IS GOOD IN YOUR COUNTRY, BECAUSE IT AINT HERE, the pixel is a solid phone. if not s23 or xiaomi mi 13 is really good too in terms of camera quality. oh and i would never buy any of those top tier phones, because they are never worth it except the camera i always get a mid tier phone, i have a pro camera for photo and videos n stuff

Yeah luckily for us, google has good support here. Not that much models available tho. I do the same, i have a pro camera, but for her daily usage and transport, the phone fits better for the purprose. Thanks!

I'm a professional phone critic I've been scrolling for years, at this stage in phone technology, pick the one you like and can afford, there really is no different in scrolling abilities these days, they all scroll the same.

People say if you use a Xiaomi, then install a custom ROM as MIUI is dogshit. Otherwise the phone specs are decent. OnePlus isn't as good as it once was since Carl Pei left and OxygenOS was merged with ColorOS. Pixels are the best Android phones for photos and videos. Google's Camera app along with their optimizations are just out of this world. No other phone comes close. It also benefits from being a pure stock Android. Android updates and new features also come first to it. There are some QoL issues though. Like they only have 23W (18W on the a-series) fast charging MAX whereas other companies offer significantly more. The Tensor chips are basically Exynos chips and heat up more easily. They also eat up battery on 5G network (all chips do but these ones more than others). There's also 60Hz refresh rate on the Pixel 6a and "only" 90Hz on the 7a. The more expensive models are 120Hz though. If you can look past these its a fantastic phone. Samsungs are good all-rounders. OneUI has some bloat, but feels good to use. 120Hz screen, fast charging, decent all things considered. Again, camera doesn't come close to Pixels.
