For good reason - Google's firmware and quality control are absolute shit. I have a Pixel 10 and there's hardly a day goes by that I'm not dealing with multiple problems.

Last week I was out of the country with no access to wifi and a very limited roaming data plan. Without notification Google pushed a 1.4GB firmware file on mobile data which used up all my plan's remaining data.

My BT speakers work fine with older versions of Android, but with the Pixel on Android 16 and 17 one speaker has 2 volume levels, off and 100%, the other speaker blasts at full volume momentarily when playback starts. Plenty of other bugs too.

I've always wondered why the Google employees I've known have carried Iphones. After purchasing a Pixel I understand.

    The only reason to buy Pixels is GOS.
