The moment pixel got design award, the award lost its value.

    I wonder why pixel win.
    Ugly copy paste design, small ram, battery sllow charging apart the CPU and GPU and fresh stable constant updates nothing special and worth the price.

        The only award that Pixel deserves is the award for the worst flagship of 2019.

                  But you can find people that look for help because their phones just "died" after update.

                              No K20, P30, Mi Mix Alpha, Note10, Realme X2, Honor 20? They missed out some of the best looking phones and gave the award to Pixel 4?

                                Google Pixel 4 XL user here. The new Pixel 4 is really good looking phone - much better than on the photos on the internet. For me, the Google Pixel 4 XL is the best phone of the year 2019. ;-)

DACs like this strong needs to be miniaturized until it's the size smaller than the palm of our hands or better yet, small enough to be part of the internals of phones like vivo Apex and Meizu Zero.

                                      There were working units of Meizu Zero that had reached the hands of multiple reviewers, just like Vivo APEX 2019. Meizu Zero has the distinction of being officially announced with detailed specification several days before the official briefing of Vivo APEX 2019.

                                        No-ports/buttons phone is definitely the future and I could imagine using one, not without the jack though. We need wireless lossless jack alternative.
