No, i don’t think i will. How bout i just leave your site instead?
it gives you the option to continue without disabling lol
Oh, i did not see that. Oopse
Ya, how dare a website gets revenue to pay their writers and server host.
I am willing to pay if i must, but not with ads. I dont use any particular site enough to justify a subscription, but i would be perfectly willing to pay say 1 millenero (0.001 monero) to read the article.
And I’m willing to pay tree fitty for iPhone 15. take that.
This is not your kindergarten playtime where you set the price and pay it with fake money. Shove that crypto up yo…
I am willing to pay if i must
of course bud, we believe you. 💯
But they won’t. Why would they?
Google makes money from providing service and advertising. It has more to gain from supported devices than without.
Because they can say they will, possibly sell slightly more than they predicted. And then in 2 years say that they cannot support it anymore anyway.
Because they don’t have a monopolistic position in this market yet.
I’d love to see that happen. At the very least security updates. It’s a shame when a device stops getting updates rendering it an insecure device despite the hardware still being capable of quality performance. Especially with phones costing more than laptops.
I mean they could, but they won’t.
I could start levitating. But I won’t.
Man and I just bought a new phone like 2 months ago… I would have much preferred this for the longevity
7 years of security updates alongside feature drops, which hopefully translate into 7 years of OS upgrades, would be great. The hardware may not be as repairable as the fairphone, but I guess something is better than nothing.
I have a Pixel 6 and after 1 year the battery is terrible. I intend to move to Pixel 8 because of longer updates and Desktop Mode. Unfortunately they don’t have removable batteries yet.
Really? With average usage, my 6a ends the day at 70%+
Maybe you got a lot of crap running
My 6 Pro’s battery is nearly as good as new after 2 years.
“could”…
That word is doing a tonne of work here
For the rumored extra $200 price tag, it’s disappointing that they aren’t including the better gorilla glass Victus 2, Qi2 charging, UWB, and UFS 4.0 on the Pixel 8.
At least include the more durable glass, Qi2, and UWB. This is going to make the phone pretty out of date just by the spring. Especially because of the tendency for Pixels to get much worse over time.
I’m a forever Android fan, but I’m getting jealous of the quality and consistency of iPhones. I just wish I could find that kind of hardware quality in something other than Samsung (because I can’t stand their software).
Aye, it’s overpriced. Pixel prices usually drop pretty fast though.
So which Pixel hardware survived seven years in the past? 🤔
Without replaceable batteries, there’s no way I’m holding onto a phone for that long.
The batteries are replaceable. Just not user-replaceable and therefore a bit more expensive. Typically $80-100 a pop for Pixels.
