Tbh, I'm more interested with the new Chipset it will be using, some rumors suggest it will perform similar to exynos 2100 or sd888

        No thanks

          Google long term pixel strategy, launching a phone in only 8 countries.

            Among all of the phones from past 5-10 years this is the most ugly phone i ever seen.
            Even Xelibri lines from siemens were looking far more superior to this in terms of beauty and look.
            The only sandwich like hones i really ever liked is X2 and Vibeshot from Lenovo.

                  I hope they present a watch and new hearing aids, so you don't have to buy one from other markets and take better advantage of the integration of the Google ecosystem

                    I am interested, if they fix the camera software issues. In comparison with the Nexus 5x HDR+ On mode, the Pixel 3a was a huge disappointment for me:
                    -Much worse auto white balance
                    -white balance presets have been removed
                    -very artificial digital zoom that also makes dead, white pixels visible
                    -Night Sight takes up to 7 seconds and causes slightly blurry photos due to an exposure time of 0.5s-1s per frame (HDR+ enhanced is much better)
                    -occasionally even more blown out highlights
                    -more aggressive spatial noise reduction

                      Enhanced machine learning in Spygle device? No, thanks. Can't wait for Harmony OS.

                        Since it is yet to be released, it's too early to conclude anything about these.

                        Limited availability will be a biggest drawback.
                        For India this will be 4th Pixel which will skip the launch ( after Pixel 4 duo and Pixel 4a5g and Pixel 5). But it makes sense since there is no active 5G network yet in India and it won't happen immediately.
                        But to make up for this, Google will have to take one of these two ways to ensure its presence in Indian market :
                        - either release 5a in India with an attractive price tag ( rumors are that 5a will see limited release like Pixel 6 duo and India is not on the list of release)
                        OR
                        - make 4a available at lower prices till 6a releases.

                        But end of the day it Google knows what it has to do.

                          I got the Lenovo Legion Duel 2 pro a couple of months ago, and I'm considering trading it in for a Pixel 6 pro, but I kinda want the watch and some wireless buds too, if they announce the pixel watch and new buds I think I'll drop the dough.

                            Anonymous, 08 Aug 2021Even if it won't be available in Africa I'm sure ... morei want a compact phone and at the same time i need/want telephoto camera, am I asking too much?
                            so no real options available for me. xperia 5 iii maybe but it is not that compact and who knows when it'll land and in any case it'll be super expensive... damn

                            hope zenfone 9 compact will ship with telephoto...
