- The Google Pixel 5 has been one of my favourite Pixels, its actually been the pixel that i have had for the longest. But can it still be used in 2024... is it worth YOU buying? And was it the LAST True Google Pixel?
I love talking all things google pixel so if you want more pixel goodness then sub to the channel.

Pixel 5 Google's flagship ever❤
There’s a lot of love for this phone ❤️
@@rossniem yess...I'm still on it
I have no 5G bands in my country
@@yadhuyadhu9842 5G is over rated at the moment anyway.
@@rossniem That really depends on where you live. The speed difference is huge where I am
got it last year after i dropped my 5a after 1.5 years and i want all my phones to be this small+competent
I’ve had it since new and it still gets used daily. Going strong aswell, no signs of slowing down.
@PSL09 why pixel 5 over 5a. Both are mostly similar.
@@Hari-kd9dz 5 is smaller
@@PSL09 okay, I'm going to get mine tommorow for the same reason :-)
You can also install Lineage OS or another Custom Rom and it get's security updates and it is faster than Google Stock OS :)
I tried to get this on my 2XL but I couldn’t get it work 😂 I need to find a better guide
Are there problems with NFC or banking?
@@rookybeats yes banking apps are not working. For get them to work you must get root access and install a few plugins to hide the custom rom
I've ALWAYS been a fan of the smaller form factors, but even more now since my getting older has caused those ultimate physical "issues" such as mild arthritis in my hands/fingers. My (standard) Pixel 8 has been a true blessing in that regard, and the fact that it's a terrific phone has simply added to my experience! The Pixel 6 was my first foray into the Google system and it was a thoroughly enjoyable device for the 2 years I had it, despite the occasional connection and software "bugs" and the not-always-reliable fingerprint sensor........many of those which got better after several software updates. My decision to upgrade to the Pixel 8 was primarily due to wanting a smaller phone, and the 3rd Tensor Chip, which has obviously gotten a lot better! The Pixel 5 (absolutely love that green-ish color) would've been the phone for me when it was released, but I was really into the LG phones back then. For the record, I'm totally on board with bringing back the smaller devices!!!
The Pixel 8 is nearly the perfect phone, will certainly feel better in the hand than the pixel 6. Who knows, maybe one day small phones will have a resurgence Tony. I hope the rumours of a 6.02 inch Pixel 9 are true.
@@rossniem - After hearing about this Gemini Nano AI on-device info and subsequent confusion regarding the alleged "Hardware Limitations" on the Pixel 8, I just may find myself jumping at the upcoming Pixel 9, even though I love my Pixel 8!
You can never trust 'hardware limitations' with Google, lots of features always seem to trickle down no matter what they say.
The thing I liked the most about this phone was how the screen looked, with the thin symmetrical bezels all around. It was ahead of it's time
Yeah it was such a clean look.
rocking my pixel 5 again, have the 7pro but its like a brick, getting a new battery for my pixel 5, the battery last ages and the phone does what i need it to do, best pixel ever, hope google desides to give us a few more last updates, just to polish of the software
Yeah that would be nice, I've found the same with the pixel 6 it's a bit blocky and I'm glad they softened the newer phones up.
@@rossniem I do hope they update the pixel 5 a few more times, just for any last optimisations, to maximize the phones hardware and software capabilities, especially the camera, the camera needs some more optimisations, just clear up video and night time pics
@@Davetherave666 it could certainly handle another update in my opinion
@@rossniem it can, the phone has the power, come on GOOGLE YOU CAN DO IT, we believe in the pixel 5
The only thing that really annoyed me about the Pixel 5 was the shiny fingerprint scanner after a while of use. And slightly slow camera? Otherwise, the phone served me well for 3 years without any complaints.
Yeah if you keep it in a case then the fingerprint scanner gets worn a lot quicker than the rest of the back. The Pixel 5 seems to get a lot of love.
I miss it. I traded it in for a Pixel 7... Got a great deal, but I think overall I prefer the 5
Yeah the pixel 5 has so many great things going for it. Pixel 7 isn’t a bad choice though
I'm still using mine, 2024. Good enough for me.
Yeah mines still going really well. It’s getting close to needing a new battery though 🪫
Constructive criticism: Not sure if its the voice or the just the mic. Its grainy. Making it difficult to keep listening and engaged. Maybe the native english speakers dont find it hard but I have to do a conscious effort to listen to that voice. That can drive the viewers away even when you have a good content.
Maybe try other mics or voice therapy.
Good luck
The battery life on the Pixel 5 was just amazing. Still better than my Pixel 8.
My pixel 5 is still going strong in the battery department, never needed to get it replaced 💪
After using Pixel 3a, 3xl, 4xl, 4a, 4a 5g, 5, 6, 6 pro, 7a and 8 pro For me 4Xl has been the best and I switched back to it from 8 pro last month
Yeah it definitely feels something special, my favorite one!
Why it's the best??
@@anjanbabu2009 it's either on par with the best of the best or just a little lacking all in all if you compare the speakers, camera, display, built quality, in hand feel, haptics it either comes on top or is just lacking a tiny bit so it's the only phone with the least trade offs hence the best
Pixel 5 best bezel simetris and Compact
Even the Pixel 8a doesn't have symmetrical bezels
Did all Pixel 5's support 5G? Specifically the Canadian Model GTT9Q which is a %G model, I guess only certain countries got this option and it has support to Aug 2024. Does the Pixel 5 get the unlimited google photo storage? I currently use a Zenfone 9 and I LOVE it for its size and performance. I am planning to buy a Pixel 5 5G today used in as new condition for the photo storage benefit and as a spare small phone
i am not sure about 5g since it doesnt work in my country (sri lanka) but, the unlimited storage features still works can confirm
Did pixel 5 have unlimited photos storage ?
Yeah it was the last one that offered unlimited standard quality photo storage
Would it be safe to use this phone, since it hasnt been receiving any security updates anymore ?
It's less safe but it wouldn't put myself off using it. If you are really concerned then try to add a new OS like lineage or graphene that still get updates.
@@rossniem i bought the pixel 8a its an amazing replacement for the 5a.
@@sozl I'm very tempted to get one of the Pixel 8's after the 9 comes out.
This is a true phone, not the garbage they have today...this is a pixel...the rest after this...their crapxichels
I kept this phone for so long, it's a great phone
Still using my pixel 3Xl
I’m on the lookout for a 3XL to add to my collection
Using my 4a since 2022. This feels like a 4a Pro rather than a Pixel 5.
Hey Rossi wish to buy this phone, i have watched your video but do you think it will be good choice? I only care about battery life, small phone good camera front and back and software. i don't play games if very occasionally or not at all.
Yeah this will be a good choice for you, I know someone that has had this phone from new and still uses it every day. They love it
@@rossniem thank you :)
@@rossniem there are minute changes between the 5a and 5, one thing that stands out is the improved battery which makes me second guess if i should go for 5. How ever from your review I belive the battery is not an issue. Also High Refresh can be a big plus as well.
@@disgruntledshota somehow I was able to get better battery life out of the 5 than any other I tried
@@rossniem wow, thats so interesting haha . That puts my mind at ease. One other thing Ross that has always been at the back of mind, previously i have used the 3a pixel and to my surprise even though the native camera app thanks to google's processing was really good but every 3rd party camera was blurry and had no detail, like snapchat instagram which was so odd and I had to switch my phone because of it. Was that only the case with those or will it be a think is the 5 as well ?
I’m personally not a fan of the iPhone 11 looking camera bump on the back of and the camera on the front being in the corner rather the middle the the Pixel 8. But I do genuinely love the squeeze feature and I’m sad to see it gone. In my opinion the Pixel is the best now that it has ever been.
Yeah the pixel 5 is definitely more generic looking. The Pixel releases are the only ones I'm genuinely excited for every year.
@@rossniem Yeah there is the glass and plastic design like the first pixel, and we have the current degine with the visor look, witch feels like an evolution of the original Pixel look, and the 5 is just a one off. I hope Google Keeps the way it looks now for as long as possible.
The leaks of the new pixel fold have a really nice camera design. I wouldn't be mad if that made it's way to other models
@@rossniem Oh I haven’t see any leeks yet. So I wouldn’t know what it looks like.
Never actually tried this, need to pick one up!
The biggest wrench 🔧 for me in leaving my 4xl (apart from funky oh so orange colour) is I love-
Squeeze for assistant
#Radar gestures (yes I know I'm #probably in the minority 😂)
#Crazy fast face unlock
...not to mention original Google's fabric cases are like £5 brand new on eBay (different colour for different day lol)
Great videos, keep them up 🙏🏻
What is the cost of this ?
I got this from new but you can pick them up now for less than £100
Found a new one at a german store!
I just came here to say the last true pixel was the pixel 4xl, bye.
4 XL = My favorite pixel ever
4a and 5 are fine..
The 5 was the low key best all time but the face unlock on the 4XL was amazing !
