Which is obvious becuz since it's release, praise and enthusiasm had been growing exponentially... Best camera ever, no bloat, super fast, ai domination etc... Tried one out and the camera alone is reason enough to dump all the rest...

Only problem... Sold out everywhere....

Patiently waiting...

RIP apple... :olo: ...

I've had this S6 for two years and it's at a point where I'm having to charge it during the day. So it's time for a new phone. I think I'm going to get a pixel as well.

Okay, not to sound like a complete dick, but... have you tried replacing the battery?

no bloat,

not entirely true. Where the Nexus gets a pure Nougat 7.1, the Pixel has its own Pixel Launcher and Suite.

which is still 100x less bloaty than every other Android install so yea.

Google is developing a software fix to address excessive lens flare on photographs taken with its flagship Pixel smartphones.

My next upgrade will likely be from the Oneplus Two to the OP3. Similar specs to the Pixel, and much more affordable.

OP3 is a great phone for non-morons. You might wanna wait for the OP3T if it tickles your fancy.

I may look into that. Have specs been released for it yet?

I took a ton of pics with the pixel I played with at best buy and didn't get any halos or lens flares....

All nice pics taken way faster than an iPhone could ever...

Other than it having Snapdragon 821 over the 820 in OP3, I don't think it's worth the price increase. The OP3 is already blazing fast.

Might be a good time to snag a used OP3 from some idiot who just has to get a new phone every month.

You can't change the battery. It's like an iPhone...
