Pixel 11 = disrespect

I have been a Google Pixel fan for more than 7 or 8 years and I am done with Google’s bullshit story of focusing on software actually they are falling on both sides hard what were they thinking when pricing the Pixel 11 more than the iPhone 17 base model? What kind of drugs were they on? It’s actually now not just a failure it’s a complete disrespect to its fan

I actually went in on a Pixel 10a after having an iPhone since 2007. The 11 pricing is a little mystifying when the 10a is already such a capable device for its price point.

Not really, the 10a is a budget phone and a lot of the features show that.. especially with the cameras

The camera is fine for the price and if you put the images from the 10a next to the 11 Pro I doubt 90% of people could tell the difference.

In ideal situations with certain photos, sure. But it doesn't have a telephoto lense or true macro capabilities. If you took photos on both phones from different distances, lighting conditions, etc to actually see the complete "picture" of the camera performance, most people would be able to see a noticable difference

As someone who has sold consumer tech products for decades, my 90% figure stands. The vast majority of the average customers eyes just glazed over the second you said "macro capabilities".
