            They should differentiate the Pixel 8 from this by making it more compact. Something close to Pixel 5 size is perfect for me. Lighter would also be nice. That way you have a choice of size with the premium range, and an in-between size that should suit most for the cheaper offering. Personally I just want a modern phone with the amazing ergonomics of my Pixel 5.

              Why would I?

              Better frame
              Stronger protection
              Better IP rating
              Bigger display
              lastly, Pixel 7 is a lot cheaper now

                128GB internal storage with no higher internal storage options (Pixels don't support micro sd storage expansion) for a phone that captures RAW and 4K 30fps is a sick joke. This is about as disposable as it gets and its a costly disposable.

                  Aierlan, 11 May 2023I think this and the Poco F5 are for a different audience. ... moreGamers? LOL

                  Bad screen with cutout, poor audio, slower domestic memory/ram. Majority xiaomi phones have poor battery endurance. Standby time is ridiculous. Easily loses 1% per hour.

                    MiguelBain, 10 May 2023Overheating Tensor made by Samsung while Poco F5 or OnePlus... moreI think this and the Poco F5 are for a different audience. The F5 is targeting gamers more and people who don't care about the rubbish cameras. The pixel 7a is probably more suited to those who just use their phones for social media and web browsing but want a good camera. The cameras in this will be on a different level. Not sure on the Nord 3. Has it even been launched?

                          My 4 year old LG G8 matches this phone in almost every category, is thinner, has an SD card slot AND HEADPHONE JACK.

                            markiz, 10 May 2023Who made you the authority on what is or is not compact? T... moreJust because majority is above 16cm, does not make this any small.
                            This one has over 15cm.

                              The Most Interesting Part is Ultra Wide using much wider with 0.5x, this much wider than Pixel 7 (0.6x) and Pixel 6 (0.7x)

                                How about commenting on the speed and accuracy of the fingerprint sensor?

                                For me, the Pixel 7 offers a better size with smaller bezels. If it's on sale, I'd have a hard time choosing the 7a over it.

                                      Love the size, hate the Samsung fabbed Tensor. Hopefully Samsung's future fab iterations are more efficient! Also, in the US at least, this phone will be on sale very quickly.

                                        Alex 94, 10 May 2023They said everything. What more u need.The most important: the autonomy tests where the Pixels are average or bad
