Google has worse UI , worse SoC so why people should pay around the same money for an inferior product

Thing is, Pixels usually drop in price after a few months. Not like Samsung, though. I've seen Pixel 9 retail for ~ $ 830 in Europe. It's an OK price, considering we have to pay VAT. Regular iPhone 16 starts at $ 1000. So... quite a bit of difference.

          The Pixel shouldn't be pitted against the iPhones. It's just not that good. The base Pixel at $600 and the Pro at $700 would work much better in its favour. At a thousand dollars category, the competition in android has lots of options so the Pixel Pro wouldn't find a lot of buyers.
          Anyways the Pixel is an overrated phone in the first place. So not worth the flagship title

            Please do not forget their tagline. Not a hardware company.

              That is always expected as the pixel uses older fabrication for the chipset plus the iPhone uses a titanium body
              Pixel wants to squeeze more profit margins they are getting greedy

                I love Pixel's software, but the hardware is a joke. It's honestly ridiculous to charge as much as an iPhone for it when there are so many viable Android flagships or flagship killers that provide better specs at the same or lower price.

                  So who's greedier? Obviously Google.

                    and at that price point, anyone and their mom would get the iPhone instead.

                    You have to be a hard fanboy of Google to pay that much money for a Pixel, especially considering the iPhone is an option + a lot of other options in Android that are cheaper or better specced.

                    Even software support is moot bc Google always messes something up with Pixels and leaves a bad taste in mouth.

                          This is just hardware, development costs are not included of course.

                            Still extremely expensive beta phone. Especially because they never leave beta state, even on release.

                              Iirc iphone soc is around 60. It is much cheaper as they are the end user.

                                  No wonder people are scared about ChatGPT. It can do math!

                                    11% difference (especially considering the price difference here) is not "much cheaper".

                                      And a worst chipset! What a joke the google pixels have become, remember the Nexus days... Capitalism ruins everything in the long term
