Same as any other phone. Apples had a tendency to turn off under 30%. Things are getting better but always going to be defective products. Not defending Google or any oem.
We the consumers should get better. But that doesn't change that plenty bloggers highly rate pixel phones.
I use a 6 pro. Had it's pros and cons like any other brand.
No, it's not the same as any other phone. Pixels get reviewed well because the reviewers get units that have been double checked and ensured that they are defect-free, and they are not used for very long before the verdicts get published.
If you go to places like r/GooglePixel or any of the Lemmy alternatives, they're full of users complaining about the finicky connectivity, bad displays, or unreliable fingerprint readers, in numbers that are far higher per-user than other brands.
Google phones sell significantly fewer units than, say, Samsung, but they have noticeably more users complaining about technical issues.

Yeah. Literally every phone gets that. Not special case for pixels. C'mon aye.

If you go to rany sub. Folk are talking mad shit. OnePlus was just a wall of angry people. And for good reason. These phones are expensive and should be held to a high standard.
Give me stats on pixels being worse or it's pointless. Gotta back up anecdotal information which this all is.
