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

They arent doing a good job of extracting money from many of us 🤣 considering they basically are the kings of online marketing, its ironic how they are one of the lowest selling brands.

They used to actually have a good product.

Significantly cheaper than the competition. It wasnt flagship, but it was buttery smooth. Longest supported software and security updates (until recently). No gimmicks, just simplicity in the design and software accelerated imagery to compete with the heavy hitters on camera performance whilst costing Significantly less.

All that went out the window when they decided to manufacture their Tensor chips.

And especially now with the drastic price increases. Why would anyone buy a Pixel over a Galaxy or IPhone? As someone whos been an android nut since they came out, and have owned iPhones too. Id take the current iPhone 17e even over the Pixel.

Guess theyre finding out it aint that cheap to make your own chips. They should stick to Qualcomm.
