Considering Google's record, let's see first if their custom SOC can run Whatsapp and other basic apps without major issues.

    Mobilemaster, 10 Jul 2021The renders shows a periscope camera, and don't forget... moreOk. Sadly don't like the punch hole. Maybe next year if they release the sucessor with under display camera without cut other specifications

      Android us such a privacy nightmare already. I am not sure more dark silicone and closed source firmware is what we need. Google will have a lot of convincing to do.

          Aadrian, 10 Jul 2021Never thought I'd say it about a Pixel phone, but the ... moreExactly as you say! It is not boring for sure!

            Kingslayer, 10 Jul 2021The best news is Google promising 5-year updates. They'... more5 years of updates is indeed a good thing. I'm using my Note8 since its launch and I will probably replace it next year, so that means I used the phone for 5 years too but without the 5 years of updates. However, I still get security patches, be it quarterly. The ever rising prices of phones and the environmental impact made me decide to upgrade at a slower pace. And for many 5 years of updates is a very important reason too.

              Never thought I'd say it about a Pixel phone, but the design is different. Of course it's a slab, but a different kind of slab. A breath of fresh air, well done.

                The best news is Google promising 5-year updates. They're now matching Apple's. This means upgrade cycles will take longer. More people will upgrade less frequently. They'll use two phones per decade. Saves us more money.

                Smartphones are already perfected. The improvements you get are negligible. I think Apple will eventually start introducing newer iPhones every 2 years. It's like their laptops and iPads. At some point, these annual upgrades will go away.

                  Kingslayer, 10 Jul 2021Google's Whitechapel won't be as powerful as a Sn... moreHave you not heard the angry mob trashing the newer Supra for being basically a BMW.

                    If nothing else, the design is a breath of fresh air. The biggest mistake Android manufacturers made was copying Apple's massive, left aligned camera island. Symmetrical camera rows are truly the pinnacle of design.

                      Google's Whitechapel won't be as powerful as a Snapdragon 888 while Apple's A14 Bionic is more graphically than a PlayStation 4.

                      It didn't take long for Apple to surpass Qualcomm and Samsung on the SoC department. But haters will say, but Apple doesn't manufacture their own stuff. But they did custom design that chip.

                      Toyota outsources their materials from other companies. Do people trash Toyota or other automobile manufacturers because the parts they use isn't in-house? Most products we use are from companies dealing with several partners.

                        My fictional concept smartphone that I designed around the time the F2 pro was released would still be better in specs and features than any modern smartphone currently on the market, and it will probably keep being on top for several more years.

                                        pufanu, 10 Jul 2021Screen protectors, yeah, not much choice. I don't even... moreI had "faux" curved protectors and they weren't even really curved even though all images suggested they somehow are. They had edges polished at an angle, but only on the top, underneath they were flat and often hanging over curved edge. It looked and felt horrible. Imagine strapping a flat glass on a banana. It was like that. Some without "curved" edges had glass smaller so it didn't go over the curve and you ended up having glass on top of display with visible edges and dust always collected there. For this reason I was kinda glad iPhone 12 went with fully flat display. So you can fit a display protector edge to edge and still looks good.
