The Nexus 5 was their peak.

The Nexus 6 created the term "phablet", and then they had the 5X which was a great disappointment, and the updated phablet, the 6P.

Pretty much everything leading up to the 5 was better than what came before it, each release felt like movement in the right direction. Then we got the 5, and it was golden.

Then the 6 came out and everyone was confused, and the 5X/6P just made things worse...

My Google Pixel 5 broke less than thirty days after the warranty expired. The screen just turned off, there was nothing else wrong with the phone. No scratches, no water exposure, nothing. Google has turned into a crooked business

USA?

Bought the budget version, pixel 6a. I have nothing but good experience with it. It is the best phone I've had, never again spending money on flag ship phones. This shit cost me about $250, and it feels, looks good and faster than my previous bloatware s10 - which cost me $1100 brand new, the battery and the camera was shit, had it for 3 years, couldn't stand having it another year.

In a couple of years I'll by a new low budget phone. You don't need a flag ship phone trust me, if it's not for the camera, but then I'd buy an iPhone.

Touch wood. Never had a reboot with my 6pro

So you're basically saying that Pixels are the Star Trek of phones, every other one is decent :P

The nexus 6P was amazing...for about 6 months. Then it bricked itself, and I was bounced between my provider, Google, and Huawei who all basically told me to get fucked, talk to someone else. Have avoided Google phones like the plague since then.

I use it as my navigation on my motorcycle. It's shut itself off multiple times on me when I'm in stop-and-go traffic and the air stops cooling it enough. I've also had it go into overheat mode trying to film my wife playing in a sports competition. At least the bluetooth more or less works finally.

It was 23 months old, last month of warranty thankfully. Couple of weeks later and it would have been a total loss. I pretty much exclusively wireless charged during which i noticed it would sometimes get very warm. Ironically the primary method of charging being wireless was at least in part to prevent damage to the port with repeated cable insertion.
