    I really want to buy this phone. However, feels like I'm downgrading my since I have the SD845 mi 8, though I really want the cam and video quality, but the price it seems too expensive for a mid-range chipset.

        Anonymous, 08 Oct 2020I agree with your point here, but I would point out one maj... moreThat's a good point. I was speaking more generally about the efficiencies of more powerful chipsets.

        Although in actual practice, it looks like the Galaxy S20 5G, with the Snapdragon 865 and non-integrated modem, has pretty good battery life. That despite having a higher resolution and higher refresh rate screen, than the Pixel 5, both of which ought to hurt the S20's battery life. And they both have the same size 4000 mAh battery, so the Pixel 5 probably would have been fine with the 865 chipset.

        Anyway, even if there's an advantage in battery life because of the 765G's integrated modem (will have to wait for reviews of the Pixel 5 to see if that's really true) it still doesn't justify the crazy $700 price tag.

          Anonymous, 07 Oct 2020I'm really happy with the choices made by Google here.... moreSeriously? mid range chipset, 128gb rom with no memory expansion slot for 800 euros is terrible pricing decision by Google. The specs are alright, not at that price point

            Anonymous, 07 Oct 2020I'm not saying this is a bad phone, but the only thing... moreI would consider 90hz, more mAh, more ram, cpu slighty better and ultrawide module pretty significant. If that justifies the 300€ more they are asking for the P5 compared to P4a, that's another story.
            For some countries they have this Bose wireless headphones giveaway if you pre-ordered the P5 or P4a 5g which is pretty cool to be fair.

They a... moreI agree with your point here, but I would point out one major factor with the 865 in particular, is that its coupled with an external modem, which also draws energy. I believe the next iteration(assuming it's named 875) will have an integrated modem. This should be even more powerful and efficient.

This is because they can ramp up, complete a task very quickly, and then drop back to low energy idle. In contrast, a less powerful processor when it ramps up will take longer to complete the same task, using more energy, before it drops back down to idle.

                    Dave, 06 Oct 2020128gb storage with no expandable slot is a joke, especially... moreSD card it’s something from the past something from Nokia era. Agree with you about 128GB for $700 it’s and dated Soc it should be 256GB at least.

                      I'm not saying this is a bad phone, but the only thing that kills it is the price and the fact that you can get the 4a for half the price and with not significant differences

                        this or the xl version will be my next phone I guess

                          I have a feeling that you are the guy that thinks that when Apple introduces a old ass feature thinks it's the greatest innovation made in California (even if it was already available on Android phones for years).

                            So this will have a slower processor than the Pixel 3XL on paper. Will it actually run slower or will the extra RAM help?

                              I'm really happy with the choices made by Google here.

                              765G with 1080p Amoled Screen and 4000mAh battery is a great balance between battery life and performances.
                              Why should we need a 8xx Snapdragon which will drain battery faster for a gain of performances we won't need, especially with Google software optimizations for the hardware ?

                              Aluminum construction + wireless charging is also great.
