    3.You cant say a processor or socket are the worst unless you read the spec and benchmark them. My friend have a pixel 5, and it's do gaming perfectly.
    4.Tgis is the point where i dissapointed. But it doesn't mean you should blame them. Also, this phone were mid rangers (Based on specs and price, in my county it has $400 price tag) so they cut the production price by

              my poll result is no to Pixel 7 at all. I dumped my Pixel 6 Pro. Very buggy and delayed security updates. The final blow was months delay to a patch of a zero-day exploit. I bought Pixel for proper functionality and updates, and I got neither…. Even after waiting a year for Google to get their act together. The experience was so bad, that I hesitantly got a used iPhone to replace it after being 100% android since the very beginning. I’m very happy with the Apple hardware and software build quality and won’t ever go back to Android. I’m surprised to be writing this, but that’s my Pixel experience.

                Google is interesting me as of late because I think artificial intelligence is the future. Same with neurotechnology. I was watching one of those "end of times" YouTube videos yesterday because my dad is super religious and he's always interested in apocalyptic prophecies.

                It''s fascinating stuff. Things like deep fake. Joanna Stern from WSJ did a video about AI cloning only 2 weeks ago. What if we can digital clone ourselves? What if we can implant microchips in our brain and learn kung-fu in a few minutes like in The Matrix just by uploading data.

                It's possible we can live forever. Create an AI of someone you love. When they did, you can still talk to them. That artificial intelligence can ruin all humanity like what happened in The Matrix using humans as batteries, but I dig ita potential.

                A phone is just a phone. I'm more fascinated in more sci-fi stuff like living in Mars. Read about Theia, Earth's twin planet colliding with it. AI clones. Robots. Flying cars. Telepathy. Artificial intelligence can really the game. Only Google seems focused on it with the Tensor chip.

                    Man allright???
                    Dont you need some mountain dev coffee strongest in the world to get well???
                    I really dislike ads and usualy using proper adblocker or adblocking type of brownser like fr example TOR.
                    Also i dont care for who does or not does google works as long as they dont try to act as monopol.
                    And Eurotel better known as T-Mobile or Globtel better known as Orange does not impress me. I am user of O2 or telefonica in some regions known as Vodafone.
                    They are cheaper and usually with a lot better offer compared to other much more expensive so called competition.

                      Anonymous, 21 May 2023It is modified exynos, all done by samsung. But its called google Tensor.
                      But i really dont care i am just curious thats all.

                        "why buy this overpriced garbage, for beta testers only, blah blah.."
                        Fast forward few years and they have the best foldable on the market.

                        And for Google this is a first product of it's kind and they still did a couple things better than Samsung, like logical cover screen aspect ratio and no gap hinge.
                        I agree, it's not perfect or cheap, but you're comparing a prop plane to a jet fighter.

                                        Americans used to laugh at Europeans for using Samsung phones with Exynos, so they really shouldn't be buying Pixel phones.
