  • It is interesting that the price has already dropped on the P8 and is expected to continue to drop thru black Friday.

    This is precisely why I never buy new anymore, having been burned by two previous Pixel releases in the past.

    This chip situation doesn’t bode well for my continued Pixel use however.

    Software is important but it isn’t everything, and like the article said raw horsepower does matter. For me. The most important things are battery, life display brightness, and cellular connectivity - something my pixel 6 Pro objectively fails at on all three fronts.

    Combine that with all of the data theft that Google software utilizes, and I think I’m pretty much done.












  • Seriously. Fewer and fewer people are using Google as a search engine anyways. I know it’s miniscule, but people are aware of Duck Duck go, and aware of Google’s spy apparatus, hence why in any survey or poll they conduct they ask the user’s opinion on how well they think Google is doing with their private data. I always score them the lowest possible.

    What we should be concerned with is how many websites and third party logins use Google.
