I myself have purchased 'cheap' items and they do not last nearly as long as something I would pay decent money for. Be it electronics to clothes.
But when you pay a premium for items such as Pixel phones, iPhones, Huawei's flagships.... you are never certain an issue will arise but can be damn certain it will be rectified.
As for 'cheap' phones I would not expect the same level of support.
That is to say that the company in question has an expensive flagship opposed to a company with a 'competitively' priced phone.

        This reminded me of the deep sleep on my nexus 4 if I forgot to put it on charge overnight. Such a great feature causing me being late for work numerous times. Never experienced such surprises since I switched to Xiaomi with EU Roms ever since.

          Shameful or even disastrous by a company as influenced as Google.

            When a "cheap" device with outstanding performance for the price, has slightest of issues "obbiously, you get what you pay for"
            When a grossly overpriced device has an issue "it's a phone, it's going to have issues".
            These people are fine paying a grand for issues, but make fun of people who get 300$ devices with issues.

              So glad I returned mine for an OP6T.

                And you thought the Yeti was only a legend ...

                  I stopped "wirelessly" charging my phone because it got so hot ... I don't think it's good for the battery/phone's internals. It was toasty!!! So can imagine charge & using at the same time will cook the phone.

                  Anyway, the new Pixels are sh!ttttt ...

                      For this price users must get more than a phone - phone with hand heater for the cold days.

                        Simple physics, high charging current means lots of heat, this already happened to me in the days of the first 2A Samsung chargers, the phone smelled burned plastic. Its not new on fast charge phones, just worse now than it used to be because the chargers gotten faster.

                            Anonymous, 09 Nov 2018All pixels had issue. I don't know why would anyone buy the... moreHah Nokia is ded. You mean Fokia (fake Nokia or HMD as some know it, a Chinese company). Fokia is really terrible, like Sony is. Light years below their Chinese overlords.

                            In phones it goes like this

                            Apple = Huawei
                            Xaiomi = Oppo/Vivo/OP
                            Samsung

                            ...and then chaos (really , really bad companies: Fokia, Sony, HTC, LG, etc. Ded companies)

                              Here's the problem with this, yes Google will fix through firmware but when? Everyday waiting and having the phone heat up is another day of shortening your devices life span.

                                Why does Google try to make phones? They seem to have too many bugs compared to other flagship phones (e.g Huawei, Xiaomi, Sony, etc.)
