The Pixel business has failed

Forget about challenging Apple...the Pixel line barely competes with Samsung. There is no way this is a win for Google, and its long past time they gave it up.

Quality and software issues (from Google!) plague these phones. Even now, there is a trending story of an update that is causing phones to get hot...and this is from Google who controls the software, hardware, deployment...

And then there is the pure junk like the Pixel Watch and the upcoming tablet...inferior products that should never have been brought to market. Were even 100k Pixel Watches sold?

I was loyal until my Pixel 3 swelled to the point I was concerned it would catch fire

After that, back to Samsung...no problems since

Even if the Pixel phones were great products...they don't sell in volume. Time for Google to accept that Samsung runs the Android market.

I thought the best use of a Google phone line was as a baseline reference device. The Nexus 5 is a great example. It had good specs (size/weight, screen, speed) and importantly price without any bloat.

That saying about premature scaling "You're not Google." seems to apply to design execution as well "Google, you're not Apple."

Has it? The latest generation is their best selling generation.

Been using pixel 4a since two years. Not a single issue. One of the best phones I've ever owned and cheap too!
