Really grinds my gears manufacturers pretend the beveled screens are premium features and not the ugly, difficult-to-protect liabilities that they actually are.

Man they're really going for it with the footnote symbols aren't they

Why. The fuck. Can't we get any cool fucking colors? You have to go to the pixel 8 pro to get even a basic blue.

I just got an interesting case instead.

How does it makes sense for the 7 pro and 8 pro to be priced identically? Why would you get a 7 pro if that's true?

Am I missing something?

They won’t be priced the same when the 8 comes out…

They’re just keeping the same launch price. The 7 will likely go on sale when the 8 comes out.

Gotcha -- that makes sense
