New year, same shit again.

I wonder who are the target of these phones really are? Never seen anyone using a Pixel out in the wild

Feels like a pet project of Google to me. Like "we make Android so we better make some phones too otherwise people don't take us seriously" idk

I use them, and I've known several other non-google employees who use them. Definitely not as big as Samsung or iPhone but we're out there.

Marques Brownlee on YouTube generally gives them good reviews. They're good for the ~vanilla android flavor vs manufacturer skins.

Maybe you just haven't met anyone with one or even noticed people who do own them. I've owned almost every pixel phone. In my opinion, they're some of the best Android phones available with great cameras and less crapware pre-installed.

I use a Pixel4 and love it. I switched from iPhone and would never go back to using an iPhone again.
