It seems like software updates are the only reason you would shell out the cash for a Pixel phone vs any other Android phone...

Or am I missing something?

The top notch camera although Idk how it compares to the current gen of Samsung phones.

The 4 was way too expensive tho. Especially since you need to shell out the extra money for the XL because the regular still had the shitty sub 3000mah battery. Went from the pixel 2 to One Plus 7T and super loving my decision

The camera on the Pixel 4 is ranked 15th though:

Idk why you'd get the 4. One of the older cheaper models sure

Idk how reliable that site is because it lists the One Plus 7 Pro as having a better camera than the Pixel 4 and no way in hell is that correct lol

Problem with Pixel is that it had a good camera game when they first came out but the rest of the industry caught up. I also don't really care about the software updates as all they do is bring features to Pixel devices that Galaxy devices have had for years.

Can't even give it points for the camera anymore since you can literally download the same camera onto any other flagship Android now

What are people taking pics/videos of that require an upgraded camera every generation? It can't be very important.

This and other manufacturers have better hardware too. I don't how a late 2019 flagship like the Pixel 4 can lack an ultra wide camera.

Just sideload the Gcam app on an S/Note and you've no longer got any use for a Pixel.

I am envious of the regular software updates that Pixel phones get; almost like an iPhone. No other mainstream Android manufacturers give out regular updates (Samsung, Motorola, LG, etc.).

They would be worth getting if they had a card slot and headphone jack.
