I owned 2 Pixel 8 devices and both had very different haptic motors, one of them would just make a plunk sound and the other one would give you an uncomfortable buzz. Google’s hardware design and consistency is lacking compared to other brand phones. Plus even though both were the same unlocked 128GB model, one of them was missing software features (3d wallpaper generation with AI for example), like what?
I mean usage wise sure you still see the display either way. But high refresh rate is better for your eyes, especially when it’s a quality display with high PWM rate. There is a huge difference between an S24’s display and an iPhone 15’s. I can use the S24 without my eyes getting tired for hours, while my eyes get sore after viewing the iPhone for a while.
Just stating we shouldn’t have to pay over $1000 usd to get a 120hz display. This doesn’t justify it when you can buy phones with high refresh rate for $300
60 Hz in 2024 is crazy, aside from the fact that iPhones have been the same for the past 6 generations.
Bro it’s a Pixel. Few hardware issues are just expected at this point and I’m not defending Google, they have a bad track record with shitty hardware.
Don’t do it bro… YT has gotten increasingly shittier and although YTM stayed the same for a long time, you can now feel the enshittification coming to YTM too
And performance, and privacy, and …
Look into DNS over HTTPS. Otherwise no matter what provider you use, DNS is just unencrypted.
AMD cpu yes, intel no. Some AMD cpus have a good enough integrated GPU for light gaming

Same old slow chipset, ugly design (personally), software locked features rather than hardware limits
Plus the Pixels with the Tensor chip suck. You pay a flagship price but the processor cannot even compete with 5 year old chips.
Why Chromium based browsers? I understand using Chrome might help Google, but how does using other browsers based on Chromium help them? By increasing market share?
I mean if you can unlock it, you can probably root it by patching the boot image
Tensor G3 sucked. Guess how the G4 will perform.
Money. The latest Pixel devices all have the same processors although the features are locked behind software depending on which model you got.
Vapes don’t trigger traditional alarms
A really cool app that brings new functionality and customization options for a Samsung phone.
