                    Last more or less reliable phone from Google was Nexus 5 starting from Android 6.0
                    After that - all of them was a total crap with continuous hardware and software problems.
                    I even wonder, why first Xiaomi on custom ROMs was named as icon of software bugs, when real one was Google ))

                      AnonD-994853, 06 Sep 2021If there isn't any hardware issues, it is not a Pixel.... moreThat is precisely why you have to wait 2 or 3 months to buy it, we are waiting for it, because they always come with a problem

                        This is why the pixel is only released to selected (read :1st world) markets. People there will suck it up and be patient with returns. I wonder how much the failure % is if they release it on a worldwide scale like samsung and apple.

                          The pixel 6 pro is coming, it's obvious right? speaking of another thing, I was one of those who suffered the sudden death of the LG g4 a month after buying it, it went out of nowhere and bye bye, that same day I never said more about an LG, and so it was to such a degree that LG already He died and never returned to that brand, I hope the same does not happen to my microwave and washing machine hahahaha

                            The Pixel 3 should never have been made so that's good I guess.

                              If there isn't any hardware issues, it is not a Pixel.

                              If there isn't any software issues, it is not an Xiaomi phones

                              Well let's see if Pixel 6 will have any of these issues

                                "Some believe that one of the security updates caused this, while others say that a hardware malfunction is the root cause, similar to LG's bootlooping problem from back in the day."

                                Huawei Nexus 6P says 'Hi' to you. I was about to buy one for my custom ROM activity until I read A LOT of bad complaints regarding the constant bootloop, so I ended up scrapping that wish list.

                                  This is why nobody wants a Pixel.
