    that seems like too many sacrifices (no AF for selfies, older ultrawide, less battery life) for $100 of savings. Then again, it might make sense for €200 left in your pocket 🤨

      This pathetic Pixel 9 is on par with Snapdragon 8 gen 2!
      That's midrange now. And btw. you know that 46 percent in 2023 using their phone to play games besides so many other tasks like video editing and photo editing.
      Even without gaming my phone needs to have more power than my desktop for many years now. On smartphones people expect anything real-time. It's no problem on my home pc to wait 10 seconds for applying a complicated photo effect or to trim a video.
      Underway it is unthinkable.
      But anyway, this device is outdated at arrival. If you don't need any perfomance their are much, much better phones for the buck on the market than this thing.

        Outdated tech on arrival. Great. Give 7 years of updates as much as you want. Battery will die long before, and technically, well it's up to replacement at date of buying.

          Why spend $800+ when you can buy a perfectly good Moto G running Android 14 for $200? And the only difference is the occasional split second lag when switching between apps and camera quality that is more than adequate. Silly.

            Sadly, the old clean pixel is no more and now the series is bloated AI probably to made it easier for US agencies to screen your phone.

              Yong Farlight84, 26 Aug 2024Phones still charge for more than 1h Plus minutes in 2024 🥶😆Google might not make great phones but they make amazing jokes.

                          The geometry of camera layout is so UGLY , Google dont you see ??? are you blind ??? , your designer engineers are nuts ??? , what you say about camera layout of samsung s23 , 24 , it is so beautiful .

                            Docktor, 26 Aug 2024Pixel 9 will never be midrange phone.It already performs like one, and in a couple of months it will be priced like it.
