2. What's the point of those comparisons? I can also make a comparison that the Exynos 1380 on my phone is as fast as the Snapdragon 855.
3. 8s Gen 3??? You mean 8 Gen 1? Because that's literally the flagship Snapdragon chipset that has similar performance to Tensor G4.

    403 Forbidden, 19 Mar 2025I mean Pixel 9a is also a budget phone sooo....Any phone that comes with 4GB of ram is budget. The pixel is mid range. Different chips as well. The Exynos is like a Snapdragon 778G while the Tensor is like a 8s Gen 3.
    They're not the same

          And do you think it's cheaper to replace a screen with thicker bezel from Samsung rather than a screen with thinner bezel from Chinese phone? No. There's something called "Samsung tax", and it's mostly existed in a country where Apple doesn't lead that country's market.

            I would also bet majority of people aren't willing to pay more for screen replacement just for thinner bezels

              > Do you really look at your phone and think "Wow I wish the bezel was smaller"?
              Yes, majority of people do.

                Are you willing to pay €150 just to replace the screen?

                  Give me 3 years of updates but please cut the BAZELS. It looks like a 2010's phone especially when i know its intentional

                      The camera module is flush with the case!!! Finally, I can replace my LG V50!

                                  Hope the display will not die like in my 9 Pro. That I no longer have

                                    How do these people not fall into legal trouble?

                                      that tensor G4 performs exactly like the G2... a 3year old chip that already was underwhelming to say the least 3 years ago..

                                        I have a Pixel 9 having previously been obsessed with having the latest and greatest. I love the size of the P9, the battery seems to last forever and the camera is great. I do not game. I have no complaints at all. If the P9A is anything like the P9 in use then you cannot go wrong (unless you are a gamer maybe but I cannot comment on that).
