  The display does not allow for 144hz and 1440p at the same time. It's kind of a bummer, but I'm just excited to finally leave my 60hz life behind.  Opening a couple of games, this phone performs extremely well, but I did find it odd that it did not allow for higher graphics options on games like Genshin Impact or Diablo Immortal, since it defaulted these games to high graphics rather than highest (not that I play waifu simulator or Diablo Immoral, but I did need to benchmark my credit card somewhere).  Lastly, this may be just my shipment, but the cord did not work for transferring data from my old Note 8 to the S20

, this device seems to be the best value for the price. Between the refresh rate, battery, AMOLED HDR display (boasting 1400 nits of brightness) , stereo speaker audio, 12gb ram, security/software updates (for at least another couple of years at the time of writing), this phone is absolutely killer.  The refurbished part scared me at first, as I normally buy all my devices new, but I have no complaints here. My device genuinely feels brand new

 Spec-wise, this device is equivalent to the s22 ultra with very minor exceptions (EXTREMELY minor, like camera and variable refresh rate).  Comparing this device to all the current budget phones from Google, Apple, Samsung, Nord, Moto, TCL, etc., this device seems to be the best value for the price.

Lastly, this may be just my shipment, but the cord did not work for transferring data from my old Note 8 to the S20. Fortunately, you can transfer everything wirelessly, and the cord I got works for fast charging. It's just an odd issue worth noting

Best new budget phone by far!

I'm also disappointed by the S20 Ultra's (I have the Exynos version) battery life. It's ok, but far from great. Even when just sitting on the couch or doing miniscule things like streaming music over Bluetooth, the battery seems to drain a lot faster than it should.

It can't compete because its available in 5 countries only... As soon as iPhone 13 was ~~released~~ announced i got ads from my local retailers that it will be available on day one of the release.

Pixel needs some serious marketing and availability, otherwise it will always be enthusiast phone.

I laughed when the article said the pixel 6 pro was the closest to the iPhone in terms of competition.

Most people I know don't even know google makes (ever made) phones. I truly find the pixel 6 an interesting flagship (even tho I am not buying flagships anymore because its not worth it).

It brings actual competition to the real iPhone competitor, the galaxy s lineup. Now they offer similiar (maybe even better) software support, samsung 3 major releases +1 more of security while google could do 4+1. The hardware is finally up to date and it justifies the price more than its precedecessors did, flagship components for flagship price.

IMO google will have a real hard time at the high end segment, mostly occupied by very loyal iphone customers and fought against by samsung with their s series. Sure some phone/tech enthusiasts here and there but not enough to make it profitable.
I would say the best bet for google is to take what oneplus left, enthusiasts that look for the best bang for the buck. Make the pixel a series the pixel and cut off the premium lineup. Gain market share and spread the word and the pull off a move a la oneplus, make them premium again and betray the enthusiasts that funded you.

If we like your phone, decent specs, excellent software experience and optimization for a fair price, we will push everyone we know to buy one, not because we want you to take our money, but because we want our friends and family to get an excellent experience with a human price.

Oh and also, maybe start fucking sell the damn device in more than 3 countries wtf

>Google's mid-range flagships just haven't sold! In our tests, they've consistently outperformed their mid-range hardware thanks to Google's optimizations; but Android shoppers have gone for faster Samsung hardware or the cheaper Pixel "a" phones instead.

Maybe that's the answer there. People are going for cheaper phones in general and Pixel phones at the higher end aren't just being compared to the iPhone, but Samsung. After my Note 10 was stolen, I chose to go with a Nord 200 5g and with a 128GB SD card I've been mostly satisfied. I'll see what's available in a year but it'll need to really impress me especially if it's a flagship given cost.

As someone who doesn't personally like iPhones, I think the 13 is a great improvement - they've been long overdue for the 120hz screen. Like, what else did you want them to add? Well, aside from USB-C...

The Pixel 6's true competitor has always been Samsung, not Apple. The best chance Google has at getting more Pixel buyers is to lure away people who are already on Android, and the biggest Android maker to fight in markets where Pixels are available is Samsung. The likelihood that iPhone users are going to jump from the Apple ecosystem for a Pixel is, to my mind at least, unlikely.

If the Pixel 6's camera is truly as amazing as rumors would have you believe, then they have a real shot at doing so. The catch is that their marketing and execution has to also be rock-solid, something they've never really done before.

Dumb article

The iPhone 13 may seem like a minor upgrade for Android users/enthusiasts

But the majority of users potentially upgrade will be with 2+ year old iPhones (older Android phones)

So for them it's still huge upgrade. E.g. 120Hz, Night Mode, Smart HDR, longer battery life, UWB, ...

This is actually the first time in my life I've ordered an iPhone. Some may say the iPhone 13 is dull (I ordered the 13 Pro Max), but I think that's totally fine. I'm also just open for something new after more than 10 years of Android.

When the Galaxy Note 9 launched (which I had), many Android fans praised it as being a great refinement. No huge new features, but an overall great package. I think that's what the iPhone 13 lineup is.

The Pro models finally have 120Hz and the battery life (on the Pro, but even more so the Pro Max) seems to be spectacular. Yes, I will miss the great zoom on my Galaxy S20 Ultra, that's something where the iPhone can't compete. But for the rest of the camera setup I think it's really well balanced. The Galaxy S20 Ultra has a huge sensor with pixel binning which works great for photos, but it's actually a downside when shooting video in low light. It can't do binning for videos and that's where Apple's approach (big sensor, "only" 12MP) flexes its muscles. The high megapixel count without pixel binning leads to worse low light video.

I'm also disappointed by the S20 Ultra's (I have the Exynos version) battery life. It's ok, but far from great. Even when just sitting on the couch or doing miniscule things like streaming music over Bluetooth, the battery seems to drain a lot faster than it should.

I'd also prefer an in-display fingerprint scanner over the notch, but at least it's a bit smaller this time around.

That'll be my first venture into iOS. I know I will miss some things like installing apps outside the official store or setting any app as standard. But if the 13 Pro Max is really a well optimized package of hard- and software (something you hear all the time when people talk about iOS devices) maybe they'll win me over.

I still really like Samsung and I really like my S20 Ultra despite some flaws, but I'm curious. Maybe the 13 Pro Max will be my first and only iPhone, maybe it's just the start.

As for the Pixel 6 (Pro): I'm curious if Google really manages to make a no-compromise flagship phone this time around. In the past, the almost always screwed up with hardware issues or glaring omissions. More competition is good!

On the contrary, the "dullness" of iPhone 13 Pro is almost what makes it appealing. They've polished it to a shine, adding loads of things they desperately needed over the last 3 iterations despite not changing *that* much visually (squaring-aff aside).

If anything, if someone is interested in iPhone, Apple spent the last three years adding missing features that might have convinced them otherwise. That's tough news if you're trying to harvest iPhone buyers.

The Pixel is never going to sell as many units as iPhones do. That ship has sailed and the iPhone will remain the dominant player until the current smartphone era comes to an end, in the same way Apple climbed to the top in the late naught years against the likes of Nokia.

Not being able to compete in sales with Apple doesn't mean that the phone is a failure however.

What they need to fix is their godawful customer service. Having a 5a with constant overheating and a green tint in its screen isn't normal (And no, I wasn't recording 4k 60fps just playing COD Mobile and Pokémon Go in both an air conditioned room and outside for 20 minutes both times) and telling me otherwise is insulting.

I can understand a dud happens every now and then but refusing to deal with it period even with insurance is bad for the customers. Google could make a phone with the best cameras available but it won't mean squat if it craps the bed in a matter of months. Take care of the customers and they'll switch.

If Apple had to compete against a 'Samsung iphone' they would struggle too.  The Pixel is never going to beat the iPhone.  Google chose a different path for their OS back when the smartphone wars were ramping up, choosing to get their software on as many phones as possible over dominating the hardware space.   They can gain market share but even if the Pixel 6 was the 'perfect' smart phone, it's not going to just overcome a decade+ of brand loyalty and marketing overnight.

iPhone may be dull as dirt but it'll still sell more units this weekend than the Pixel will in a year.

Non-tech folks simply don't know the pixel exists because of poor marketing by Google. Also, the iPhone 13 may be a boring upgrade but it's still an improvement to the iPhone 12 which as a successful device and was generally well received.

To preface, I'm an iPhone user and a former android user.

When you say "dull-as-dirt", what you're really saying is "stable af". It doesn't have the bells and whistles of a S21, but it doesn't need to. It's a really good phone with stellar battery life, constant updates (up to 5 years), and a super premium feel. If you don't recognize that's why it's the top selling premium phone, that's on you.

In my opinion, google just needs it to be "dull-as-dirt". Meaning, it needs to have stellar battery life, constant updates, and that nice premium feel. What google needs to fix is their abysmal advertising. Apple can make a "meh" product but man they're good at marketing it. Even Samsung makes phones I don't really care for, but they're absolutely amazing at marketing. 

If google can nail the fundamentals and just market the shit out of the Pixel, they'll be selling literal hot cakes. Google's software is absolutely stellar imo. If they can just market that, they'd have no problem.

<p>When you say &quot;dull-as-dirt&quot;, what you&#39;re really saying is &quot;stable af&quot;. It doesn&#39;t have the bells and whistles of a S21, but it doesn&#39;t need to. It&#39;s a really good phone with stellar battery life, constant updates (up to 5 years), and a super premium feel. If you don&#39;t recognize that&#39;s why it&#39;s the top selling premium phone, that&#39;s on you.</p>

<p>In my opinion, google just needs it to be &quot;dull-as-dirt&quot;. Meaning, it needs to have stellar battery life, constant updates, and that nice premium feel. What google needs to fix is their abysmal advertising. Apple can make a &quot;meh&quot; product but man they&#39;re good at marketing it. Even Samsung makes phones I don&#39;t really care for, but they&#39;re absolutely amazing at marketing. </p>
