This reads like a pure ad. And just in time for the pixel 9 launch event tomorrow. What a coincidence.
I'd say the Nexus phones (pure Android) were way more a game changer than the Pixels.
Yes, but the nexuses did not have the courage and the vision to remove jacks and sd cards, all while getting more expensive. Fuck I miss me a proper nexus.
I agree with the headphone jack, but the only Nexus with a microSD slot was first one, the Nexus One.

I hated rear fingerprint sensor tbh, didn't help that it failed 1/3 of the time. Current location is much better imo
They forgot to expand to more than 20 countries in the world

So they've "pushed RCS and AI into the mainstream" which are both negative developments.
