  • I’m a new Pixel user with a Pixel 8. I’ve been daily driving it for about a month and I’ve been able to experience some of the amazing features of the Pixel. As a decade long Samsung user, I didn’t think anything would surprise me on the Pixel, but boy I was wrong. So today I’m going to share my top 5 reasons why you should consider switching to Pixel.

    If you are living in a hot climate like anywhere in SEA or South America - avoid pixel until they dodge the horrible chipset. The device constantly overheats and slows down to a crawl. Horrible experience, was great in England but not in Thailand

    Decided to switch from Apple to Android about six months ago. The features you mentioned are all the reasons I decided on Pixel vs. Samsung. All the smart features related to reminders, schedules, etc. are incredibly helpful. I find these features much more useful than anything in the Apple ecosystem. All that and Pixel phones are much less expensive than their Apple and Samsung counterparts (at least for now).

Depending on the region you live in, it is very likely that you will not have half of features that Google promotes. Except If you live in the U.S. The phone is obsolete as soon as the new Pixel comes out because you will not get new features as samsung does it with older phones. The battery life is a disaster.

      The phone gets very hot during normal use such as watching videos or scrolling through apps. The processor is very bad and slow uses a lot of battery, so the battery life is very bad. Slow charging. The features that google promises with the phone usually don't come right away sometimes and a few months after purchase. Sometimes up to 10 months. Which is disappointing and you paid for it. The camera is not as good as everyone makes it out to be on the internet. You will only have features if you live in America, if you are in other parts of the world, be happy if you have 50% of all features. Because Google limits that by region. The phone is forgotten after a year. Google will no longer deal with the previous model and they will not work with the implementation of new options that the new model has. As Samsung does it. So after a year you have a very old and forgotten phone. The list is very long, but I hope you understand and that you will give up the purchase.​@@dobargento9480
