    Tritrix, 22 May 20232 days to test a brand new phone -_-You don't need a phone for a week to test it. I got it, set it up, and had it for 2 days to test. It was still hot for some reason and I didn't want to keep using it anymore.

      Measure the PWM please.

          An0nim0us, 18 May 2023How so, Tritix? ??

I would recommend the new Oneplus 11, it has SD 8 gen 2 and it's relatively cheap

                Pumpino, 18 May 2023I'm not sure I understand the purpose of this article.... moreIt means that the review for this device is pending and should be expected in less than a week

                  Tritrix, 18 May 2023I've had my Pixel 7 for 3 months and no heating issues... moreIt probably has something to do with network reception. Pixel has terrible network issues on certain regions and carriers rendering those phones almost useless

                    Anonymous, 19 May 2023Bring bootloop back too? LG is dead so no need to worry about that.

                        Interested in battery life and how it fares

                          Although I don't like iphone, but at least Apple know how to take care of their brand and use that as an advantage.

                          In term of hardware pixel need to put a lot of effort to satisfy the Consumer.

                            Deepak , 18 May 2023Design is good , camera excellent but lot of heating issue ... moreCan definitely confirm the heating issue, I had it for 2 days and sent it back.

                              The saga of bad sunlight visibility continues.

                                  How so, Tritix?

                                    I'm not sure I understand the purpose of this article. A "quick unboxing" when you've already published a brief hands-on review? I could understand if they were published in reverse order. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the review. Maybe you should fast-track popular models such as this to the front of the queue.

                                      No matter what Google does they still have big software problems, 128GB in a 500$ phone in 2023 is scary creazy and no card support, even the new HTC u23 Pro is a better option than this.
                                      I'm glad is limited to so few countries!

                                        Bring back Nexus instead. These devices are overpriced and ugly imo.
