Unless a phone is broken, there is no serious reason to upgrade any phone less than 4 years old. There will always be cool new features and improvements that would make an upgrade nice, but it doesn’t take away the value of the phones people already have.

I was going to wait for the Pixel 10 because of the shift to TSMC Tensor G5 but knowing Google it will have bugs. So I will wait for the Pixel 11 after getting the Pixel 9 in the next couple of months.
@@alexisaguirrevazquez7900 First, I'm a Google fan and I have owned nothing but Pixel way back when they were Nexus phones. Second, its the fact that Google will make their first chipset without Samsung "holding their hand" So I will proceed with caution. (LOL)
I am using a pixel 8 pro. It works super smooth on 98% of the time just like any other flagship phone. Yes it tends to overheat sometimes if we continiously shooting videos and photos for a long time. I think it is the same for apple and samsung flagships.
So I currently have a 6a, a 7, and an 8 pro. Love the 8 pro. It works for me since I'm all in on Pixel. I'm definitely getting a pixel 9 pro. The design I've seen looks great. I'm also going to get the pixel 10 or pixel X or whatever they'll call it. I definitely want to experience what that tensor G5 will be like.
I love my Pixel6a. I have 0 reasons to upgrade at all, unless anything happens to my phone (that I baby). Overheating isn't an issue for me, the phone doesn't become inoperable. The camera is still fantastic and every program I've thrown at this thing doesn't lag, so why bother? I don't care much for the AI stuff. I did get the Gemini text support which is cool, but it's a gimmick at most to me. Not a requirement. Perhaps I will wait until the 10.
I really love my Pixel 8 Pro and I have had almost no issues with it. I can count on one hand easily over heating, it hasn't been a problem for me. Everything else has run fine and I feel it has gotten better over time. For me the chance of an ultrasonic finger print sensor and a smaller phone with top specs make me consider trading in my beautiful Google Pixel 8 Pro. I just don't know what to do yet.
The Tensor G5 sounds like a first gen with a new manufacturer and new design. I think the Pixel 9 would be a safer bet for then upgrading to the Pixel 11/12 down the road.
Currently rocking a Huwai P30Pro. Not waiting another year for the 10, give me a 9XL. New chip first year, it's like buying the first car of a new model line right off the manufacturing floor. Let them work the bugs out of the chip and wait for the 11.
I have a Pixel 8 Pro that I like a lot. The only reason I'd have for upgrading to a Pixel 9 would be design. I don't believe performance will be drastically different from the 8 series. Though the processor may have some minor tweaks and efficiencies.
I'll wait for now. I've been using Pixel 8 Pro since the start of sales, it's not bad, but it gets very hot and, as a result, has poor battery life. What do I expect in the new Pixel: 1) Good software without bugs and lags, as well as with all the declared functions immediately from the start of sales. 2) Of course, an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner (already available in 9 Pixel). 3) Face ID is like Apple. 4) Processor made by TSMC, no heat and with good power and energy efficiency. 5) Normal communication module. 6) Size no more than 6.2 inches, ergonomics like Pixel 8. 7). More premium frame materials and high-quality assembly of the device. 8) One inch camera sensor
I really want a well rounded package from Google but highly doubt it. In the past we have seen pixels plagued with issues in fp sensor, terrible overheating specially in India's heat and cellular issues. Tensor G5 has big promises but i will believe when i see it bcoz google hardware reputation is not that great....
I've had the Pixel 6, 6 Pro, 7 and still use the 8 Pro and 7a. I've had zero issues with the functionality of the Tensor chip, no operation or heating issues. So I assume that somehow Google built me (and me only) faultless phones. Sorry 9to5Goocle but I don't agree with anything that you have said. No one uses any chip/processor to it full potential. Everything that you know about the G4 and the so called G5 is via rumour control via various websites. Absolutely nothing wrong from a reliability pov with Tensors. Unless the phone under review has a Samsung or Apple logo too many reviewers are critical and biased.
I bought the pixel 7 and 8, and I have the 9 on order. If the 9 does me good, I'll pre-order the 10. I get a brand new phone every year for a few hundred bucks, and that's not including whatever extras they throw in.
There's a lot of people that keep holding out for the better version ... Next year it'll be the Tensor 5 and hearing and the 6 and people holding out for that one. I for one, will be looking at that smaller Pixel Pro 9 ... I'm glad the announcement is only a month away
While pixel does sell at a cheaper price that competitors, they still need to get a grip and lower the prices, their A series shouldnt start at 499... Bring back the 349 days...and slash the normal pixel and pro by 200$
you rarely want the first build as you are basically a bug tester, wait for Googles second TSMC chip the G6 once they have ironed out the kinks. and since my 7a gets updates until at least May 2026 I should be fine waiting.
So considering that Google will have 2 plus years to work on the G5 I'm hoping they will offer something that's really good. The g4 seems like an after thought since they weren't able to secure the chips for the Pixel 9 from tsmc. I have a 6 and it's starting to show it's a age. I was really hoping the 9 would have a 3nm chip. I might go back to Samsung for a couple of years and get the s25. I really wanted a foldable but I wanted a future proof chip and the g4 is not future proof.
I think the biggest factor will be the modem they use, g3 is bad at mobile data battery life compared to snapdragon phones. If google will go with an efficient modem on the g5, it will be worth the wait.
Huge reason for thermal problems in current tensor cpus is lack of vapor chamber. While I'm waiting for the Pixel 10 (owning 8 pro) I hope they finally add it to the 9. Without it the G5 won't be such huge upgrade and will still have thermal issues.
I am using the Pixel 6 Pro, my Display broke once. The repair shop didn't made the fingerprint sensor work again with the new screen. My Backcover broke and I repaired it by myself, but maybe I broke the NFC and Wireless charging while doing so. Also my Battery from the 6 Pro is down to around 85%. I wanted to wait for the 10, but I think I am going to grab the 9 Pro XL.
I was happy with the 6 pro, went to a s23+ and switched back to the 6 pro for awhile. It started to show its issues with some latency and freezing and I've switched back to the s23+. I am getting the p9xl because I really enjoy the software experience a lot better than Samsung but am ready for the chip improvements from the G1 so it will be a beneficial upgrade for me.
With how we've known that Google was working toward a fully custom chip with tsmc for almost 2 years now, I think it's going to hit the scene similar to the m1. Not as powerful but ready for prime time.
I have a Pixel 7 Pro and will likely upgrade to the 9...not so much because of the chipset but because usually it financially makes more sense to upgrade every two years vs three years. You get more money from trade in or selling a two year old phone vs a three year old phone. My 7 Pro is still running fairly well and the battery still holds up but the depreciation does play a factor, unless I plan to keep the phone like five years which I've never owned a phone more than three years. Which is when I realized it makes more sense to trade in after two years.
Currently on the Pixel 6 Pro and it`s a tough choice. I will make the choice based on pre-order deal + trade in value for my current phone. If I get down to 600-700€ then I´ll probably upgrade and maybe trade in for the Pixel 10 next year if it´s really such a huge difference switching the manufacturing from Samsung to TSMC.
Who cares? All these chips nowadays do everything and more you need to get done on your phone. The average consumer doesn't even use most of the power these chips have
@@crimson414 it is exactly the same thing. Power is the product of efficiency when the source of energy is the limiting factor. The more efficient the chip, the more power it can produce per unit of battery. Luckily to scroll Instagram doesn't really change in power requirements year on year and therefore doing it using less power = efficiency. That's why I'll never understand people like yourself who fail to see that SOC power increases year on year are infact improvments in efficiency and should always be achieved. Otherwise decrease the price for stagnant performance. Google has only those two options.
My mom have the exynos s24 I can say that its a improvement from the snapdragon 8 gen 1 in her previous s22 and the internet connection is getting stable. Its big improvement from my moms old s10e with exynos 9820.
For me nothing wrong with the current Tensor chips what I would want more is to get rid of the temperature sensor & finally add lidar sensor great for productivity & pro users.
I have a 4xl for the unlimited google photos storage, but it’s only a backup phone i leave at home. Really interested in jumping in on the pixel 9,10, or 11
The issue isnt that tensor is slow. Its that its inefficient (which is a product of being weak), in addition charging as much as they do to give performance the iphone was giving 3 years ago is unforgivebale. They should be selling this sort of performance for $300-400 LESS than iphone prices.
my question is, just because Google will custom manufacture the Tensor G5 from scratch, does that necessarily mean it'll be better than the G4? Samsung has been manufacturing chips for years now, and Google just tinkered the chips a little bit, but that doesn't necessarily mean they can completely design a new chip from scratch and for it to be great?
My pixel 6 pro has been a good sidekick for me but I'm definitely feeling an upgrade for camera and battery life mainly...also screen brightness. I'm tired of barely being able to see my phone outside 😂
The beauty of 7 years of updates is that you don't have to pick up a pixel on the day of release and you can buy the last year's phone cheaper. And we all know the Pixel 9 will be on sale.
The biggest undoing of Pixel phones is the battery life. It's lagging behind in comparison to the other flagships. Waiting to see battery life of P9P XL.
I'll be upgrading to the pixel 9 but no way am i paying full price. I'll wait until they have $200 discount or something. That being said, I haven't had any issues with the tensor chip. The only thing i hate is the finger print scanner and they should be fixing it on this one.
Maybe my bar is too low. But I'm currently watching this on a pixel 6. I've never felt like my phone is slow or lacking power. Battery life is still pretty good. Not perfect but I don't find myself worried about my phone dying. My major complaint about this phone is the finger print sensor being slow and not working well with a screen protector. This phone has aged well for me. I have no desire to upgrade as of yet. Maybe in another few years.
It's not option for me anymore to wait. Gotta replace my 4 years old Pixel 3a since the battery unable to hold the power like it used to be. Might wait for Pixel 9 launch, it's either Pixel 9 or Pixel 8.
Having an 8 and not being a person who needs to have the larest I'll wait a few months to see what the 10s looking like before deciding if its worth getting. Anyone looking at purchasing the 9 I wouldn't blame them. Best of luck whatever you decide.
I'm a huge fan of the new hardware design choice they've chosen to go with this generation, especially the matte finish. The only thing I want is better battery life & better sounding speakers as I do watch a lot of UA-cam on my phone. Cellular connectivity could use some work as well. Other than that all good and will be upgrading 🙂🤗💯
Tensor needs more power and efficiency . The current minor improvements are not enough to keep up with rivals like Qualcomm snapdragon and Apple silicon.
I dont have issues with the tensor soc, it covers my needs, but why on earth is google dropped the Sony sensors? we need them back! quality on Pixel 5 and back were godlike, these days is meh. I'll wait for a camera upgrade before purchasing a new phone.
Of course I'd rather wait for the 10, but Google tends to forsake the previous generation as soon as they release a new one, only giving new software features to the new one. So that makes me consider the 9
I had a Pixel 6a with the G1? anyway, it was fine no real issues except standby time wasn't great, but not terrible either. Now I'm spoiled with a one Plus 12R which has amazing battery life and fast charging. Pixel will always have the best camera imo, but others are getting very close.
Been holding off for a folding phone, and I always liked the dimensions of the first Pixel Fold, but not the outdated chip. Do you think this year's will be worth getting?
First fully customized chip ? Wasn't that what the tensor g1 was supposed to be? Google and their crap... We kind of had the same story coming from nexus to pixel series... I have had several nexus devices as well as some pixel devices. Currently on pixel 7 and man there are tons of issues that google just does not address, biggest problem being the network issues. When you loose connection and get no msgs or calls but the phone shows reception to be fine... Airplane toggle became my most used toggle to date... 😢
There hasn't really been a good reason to wait a whole year for a next generation of technology since like 2018, probably earlier than that. Get a phone when you need it. That being said, as good as the move to TSMC is going to be, the 2nd generation on TSMC will probably be the one to wait for if you were going to wait for a better chip. Give them a year to learn Tensor and how to best manufacture it.
This will sound sarcastic but I promise I'm being genuine. Anyway, I put a small desk fan next to me when I play COD Mobile on my Pixel 6 Pro if it starts to get a little hot. It performs quite well when I do that. It rarely struggles or lags for me to begin with, though 🤷🏽 I am planning on upgrading to the 9 Pro when it's released, though.
Also, if they're doubling down on TSMC chip, the Pixel 9 upgrade might not be worth it. So if you're looking for a phone right now, I'd think Pixel 8 is still a good choice.
I'm gonna upgrade from a Pixel 6 to a Pixel 9 pro (small form factor). I really like the visor that has leak. I Guess the Pixel 10 will get the Pixel fold2 camera distribution that i found boring

As an owner of the standard Pixel 8 who is quite content-as an non-gamer & non-creator-I'm planning to wait for the [TSMC/G5] Pixel 10.
The Tensor G5 sounds like a first gen with a new manufacturer and new design. I think the Pixel 9 would be a safer bet for then upgrading to the Pixel 11/12 down the road.
I got a Pixel 8 Pro currently but im in love with the Pixel 9 look so i will upgrade to a pixel 9 when its released regardless.
Can you remove the search bar from the home screen?
Currently rocking a Huwai P30Pro. Not waiting another year for the 10, give me a 9XL. New chip first year, it's like buying the first car of a new model line right off the manufacturing floor. Let them work the bugs out of the chip and wait for the 11.
Exactly
Had this question for so long. Planning to get the 9Pro to upgrade from my 4xl
I have a Pixel 8 Pro that I like a lot. The only reason I'd have for upgrading to a Pixel 9 would be design. I don't believe performance will be drastically different from the 8 series. Though the processor may have some minor tweaks and efficiencies.
I'm thinking it's too early, but it's all good. We'll be looking forward to the G4 in the Pixel 9, If it's going to live up to expectations.
I'll wait for now. I've been using Pixel 8 Pro since the start of sales, it's not bad, but it gets very hot and, as a result, has poor battery life. What do I expect in the new Pixel: 1) Good software without bugs and lags, as well as with all the declared functions immediately from the start of sales. 2) Of course, an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner (already available in 9 Pixel). 3) Face ID is like Apple. 4) Processor made by TSMC, no heat and with good power and energy efficiency. 5) Normal communication module. 6) Size no more than 6.2 inches, ergonomics like Pixel 8. 7). More premium frame materials and high-quality assembly of the device. 8) One inch camera sensor
I really want a well rounded package from Google but highly doubt it. In the past we have seen pixels plagued with issues in fp sensor, terrible overheating specially in India's heat and cellular issues. Tensor G5 has big promises but i will believe when i see it bcoz google hardware reputation is not that great....
I've had the Pixel 6, 6 Pro, 7 and still use the 8 Pro and 7a.
I've had zero issues with the functionality of the Tensor chip, no operation or heating issues.
So I assume that somehow Google built me (and me only) faultless phones.
Sorry 9to5Goocle but I don't agree with anything that you have said.
No one uses any chip/processor to it full potential.
Everything that you know about the G4 and the so called G5 is via rumour control via various websites.
Absolutely nothing wrong from a reliability pov with Tensors.
Unless the phone under review has a Samsung or Apple logo too many reviewers are critical and biased.
I bought the pixel 7 and 8, and I have the 9 on order. If the 9 does me good, I'll pre-order the 10. I get a brand new phone every year for a few hundred bucks, and that's not including whatever extras they throw in.
Hope you all enjoyed!! What are we thinking? Is it worth waiting for the Tensor G5 or moving forward with the G4?
ill keep my p8pro as long as possible bc its perfect if you dont do hardcore gaming
I think I'll buy the base Pixel 9, then get Pixel 10 Pro depending on its flaws
I like that you mentioned "broken or outdated" that fits me perfectly 😂
There's a lot of people that keep holding out for the better version ... Next year it'll be the Tensor 5 and hearing and the 6 and people holding out for that one. I for one, will be looking at that smaller Pixel Pro 9 ... I'm glad the announcement is only a month away
It works for me that I only have to wait a month to (I assume Pre-order) cuz I basically broke my phone ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
While pixel does sell at a cheaper price that competitors, they still need to get a grip and lower the prices, their A series shouldnt start at 499... Bring back the 349 days...and slash the normal pixel and pro by 200$
I just recently got a Pixel 8 and am happy with it, probably gonna keep it until at least the Pixel 12.
@@AppleReviews Same here. I had the PIxel 6 Pro and yeah, that was a nightmare. Went back to Apple til the S23U came out now I want the P9 XL
Currently using 8 pro. I am 100% waiting for 10 pro!
you rarely want the first build as you are basically a bug tester, wait for Googles second TSMC chip the G6 once they have ironed out the kinks. and since my 7a gets updates until at least May 2026 I should be fine waiting.
So considering that Google will have 2 plus years to work on the G5 I'm hoping they will offer something that's really good. The g4 seems like an after thought since they weren't able to secure the chips for the Pixel 9 from tsmc. I have a 6 and it's starting to show it's a age. I was really hoping the 9 would have a 3nm chip. I might go back to Samsung for a couple of years and get the s25. I really wanted a foldable but I wanted a future proof chip and the g4 is not future proof.
Grabbing the 9 pro, first gen usually has defects (things to work out, ex. P6)
It's tsmc they're the most experts in the world
Ill be getting the pixel 9 only because my pixel 8 pro has modem connection issues 😢
I think the biggest factor will be the modem they use, g3 is bad at mobile data battery life compared to snapdragon phones. If google will go with an efficient modem on the g5, it will be worth the wait.
Huge reason for thermal problems in current tensor cpus is lack of vapor chamber. While I'm waiting for the Pixel 10 (owning 8 pro) I hope they finally add it to the 9. Without it the G5 won't be such huge upgrade and will still have thermal issues.
I am using the Pixel 6 Pro, my Display broke once. The repair shop didn't made the fingerprint sensor work again with the new screen. My Backcover broke and I repaired it by myself, but maybe I broke the NFC and Wireless charging while doing so. Also my Battery from the 6 Pro is down to around 85%.
I wanted to wait for the 10, but I think I am going to grab the 9 Pro XL.
I was happy with the 6 pro, went to a s23+ and switched back to the 6 pro for awhile. It started to show its issues with some latency and freezing and I've switched back to the s23+. I am getting the p9xl because I really enjoy the software experience a lot better than Samsung but am ready for the chip improvements from the G1 so it will be a beneficial upgrade for me.
how about cameras do you prefer pixel ines or sansung?
@@user-gx9wt7dn3t hy , for me , i prefer apple and Google camera , it's the most reliable to what you see by your eyes , Samsung is good though
I can't wait till pixel 10...its the time to upgrade from my Pixel 3...
damn, 7 years? you'll actually fully extract the value of 7yr OS updates offered by these phones
I updated from p3xl to p8
With how we've known that Google was working toward a fully custom chip with tsmc for almost 2 years now, I think it's going to hit the scene similar to the m1. Not as powerful but ready for prime time.
Just wait for the 10, my Pixel 8 is already starting to stutter.
I love my Pixel 7. I think the OS updates expire right around the time the Pixel 10 comes out, so I'll be waiting for the 10 Pro.
Using the pixel 7 rn and I don't think I'll be upgrading it soon. And I really love my 7. So, I'm gonna wait for the 10.
I have a Pixel 7 Pro and will likely upgrade to the 9...not so much because of the chipset but because usually it financially makes more sense to upgrade every two years vs three years. You get more money from trade in or selling a two year old phone vs a three year old phone.
My 7 Pro is still running fairly well and the battery still holds up but the depreciation does play a factor, unless I plan to keep the phone like five years which I've never owned a phone more than three years. Which is when I realized it makes more sense to trade in after two years.
Currently on the Pixel 6 Pro and it`s a tough choice. I will make the choice based on pre-order deal + trade in value for my current phone. If I get down to 600-700€ then I´ll probably upgrade and maybe trade in for the Pixel 10 next year if it´s really such a huge difference switching the manufacturing from Samsung to TSMC.
Who cares? All these chips nowadays do everything and more you need to get done on your phone. The average consumer doesn't even use most of the power these chips have
There's more to that, like a crappy modem, insane battery drain, heat, etc.
The more powerful your chip, the more efficient it is. So no. It ALWAYS matters.
@@supaahflyyNot the same thing.
@@crimson414 it is exactly the same thing.
Power is the product of efficiency when the source of energy is the limiting factor. The more efficient the chip, the more power it can produce per unit of battery. Luckily to scroll Instagram doesn't really change in power requirements year on year and therefore doing it using less power = efficiency.
That's why I'll never understand people like yourself who fail to see that SOC power increases year on year are infact improvments in efficiency and should always be achieved. Otherwise decrease the price for stagnant performance. Google has only those two options.
it will matter 5 years later though.

My mom have the exynos s24 I can say that its a improvement from the snapdragon 8 gen 1 in her previous s22 and the internet connection is getting stable. Its big improvement from my moms old s10e with exynos 9820.
May finally upgrade my home rotary phone for the 9
For me nothing wrong with the current Tensor chips what I would want more is to get rid of the temperature sensor & finally add lidar sensor great for productivity & pro users.
I have a 4xl for the unlimited google photos storage, but it’s only a backup phone i leave at home. Really interested in jumping in on the pixel 9,10, or 11
The issue isnt that tensor is slow. Its that its inefficient (which is a product of being weak), in addition charging as much as they do to give performance the iphone was giving 3 years ago is unforgivebale. They should be selling this sort of performance for $300-400 LESS than iphone prices.
When 9 to 5 Google edits using Final Cut(it’s only available on a Mac)
my question is, just because Google will custom manufacture the Tensor G5 from scratch, does that necessarily mean it'll be better than the G4? Samsung has been manufacturing chips for years now, and Google just tinkered the chips a little bit, but that doesn't necessarily mean they can completely design a new chip from scratch and for it to be great?
I will be upgrading from my Pixel 2 to the Pixel 9.
My pixel 6 pro has been a good sidekick for me but I'm definitely feeling an upgrade for camera and battery life mainly...also screen brightness. I'm tired of barely being able to see my phone outside 😂
Never ends... Should I wait for pixel 11 or should I wait for pixel12 ,13,14......
The beauty of 7 years of updates is that you don't have to pick up a pixel on the day of release and you can buy the last year's phone cheaper. And we all know the Pixel 9 will be on sale.
The biggest undoing of Pixel phones is the battery life. It's lagging behind in comparison to the other flagships.
Waiting to see battery life of P9P XL.
I'll be upgrading to the pixel 9 but no way am i paying full price. I'll wait until they have $200 discount or something. That being said, I haven't had any issues with the tensor chip. The only thing i hate is the finger print scanner and they should be fixing it on this one.
Maybe my bar is too low. But I'm currently watching this on a pixel 6.
I've never felt like my phone is slow or lacking power. Battery life is still pretty good. Not perfect but I don't find myself worried about my phone dying. My major complaint about this phone is the finger print sensor being slow and not working well with a screen protector.
This phone has aged well for me. I have no desire to upgrade as of yet. Maybe in another few years.
I'll get the 9 pro xl cause I don't care and I always want the latest
Google always finds a way to ruin user experience, like the useless under screen finger print scanner
I'm good with my pixel 7 pro if they decide to push the tcmc maybe in pixel 10 it would be a great upgrade
It's not option for me anymore to wait. Gotta replace my 4 years old Pixel 3a since the battery unable to hold the power like it used to be. Might wait for Pixel 9 launch, it's either Pixel 9 or Pixel 8.
Pixel 10: 8K video, 64MP camera, 5400mah battery
Having an 8 and not being a person who needs to have the larest I'll wait a few months to see what the 10s looking like before deciding if its worth getting. Anyone looking at purchasing the 9 I wouldn't blame them. Best of luck whatever you decide.
Definitely wait. Esp if youre on 6 or later.
The design of the Pixel 9 series is wild !!!
I'm a huge fan of the new hardware design choice they've chosen to go with this generation, especially the matte finish. The only thing I want is better battery life & better sounding speakers as I do watch a lot of UA-cam on my phone. Cellular connectivity could use some work as well. Other than that all good and will be upgrading 🙂🤗💯
Tensor needs more power and efficiency . The current minor improvements are not enough to keep up with rivals like Qualcomm snapdragon and Apple silicon.
If the G4 is made by tsmc, it might actually be great. Or at least decent enough to consider.
I dont have issues with the tensor soc, it covers my needs, but why on earth is google dropped the Sony sensors? we need them back! quality on Pixel 5 and back were godlike, these days is meh. I'll wait for a camera upgrade before purchasing a new phone.
Of course I'd rather wait for the 10, but Google tends to forsake the previous generation as soon as they release a new one, only giving new software features to the new one. So that makes me consider the 9
I had a Pixel 6a with the G1? anyway, it was fine no real issues except standby time wasn't great, but not terrible either. Now I'm spoiled with a one Plus 12R which has amazing battery life and fast charging. Pixel will always have the best camera imo, but others are getting very close.
Before playing the video: predictions- wait for the *G5 to come around, but if it’s been a while since you upgraded, the G4 will be great too.
Been holding off for a folding phone, and I always liked the dimensions of the first Pixel Fold, but not the outdated chip. Do you think this year's will be worth getting?
I'm not 9-5, but I think so. :)
I have been using tensor chef from pixel 6 pro to pixel 7 pro. And i have no issues at all. Im running beta version always. Well done google. 🇳🇬
First fully customized chip ? Wasn't that what the tensor g1 was supposed to be?
Google and their crap... We kind of had the same story coming from nexus to pixel series...
I have had several nexus devices as well as some pixel devices. Currently on pixel 7 and man there are tons of issues that google just does not address, biggest problem being the network issues. When you loose connection and get no msgs or calls but the phone shows reception to be fine... Airplane toggle became my most used toggle to date... 😢
It's not all in the hands of TSMC if the design is bad TSMC can't really do anything
There hasn't really been a good reason to wait a whole year for a next generation of technology since like 2018, probably earlier than that. Get a phone when you need it.
That being said, as good as the move to TSMC is going to be, the 2nd generation on TSMC will probably be the one to wait for if you were going to wait for a better chip. Give them a year to learn Tensor and how to best manufacture it.
I'm very happy with my 7 Pro, I plan to wait for the 10
This will sound sarcastic but I promise I'm being genuine. Anyway, I put a small desk fan next to me when I play COD Mobile on my Pixel 6 Pro if it starts to get a little hot. It performs quite well when I do that. It rarely struggles or lags for me to begin with, though 🤷🏽 I am planning on upgrading to the 9 Pro when it's released, though.
IMHO, now is a good moment for s Google 8 pro and wait to see What happens with the pixel 10 and the G5
The graphics performance on my Pixel 8 Pro is really bad and it costs over 1000€, so I hope they get that sorted out.
Also, if they're doubling down on TSMC chip, the Pixel 9 upgrade might not be worth it. So if you're looking for a phone right now, I'd think Pixel 8 is still a good choice.
I'll get the 9 Pro XL and the 10 Pro XL too...😂❤
Samsung...shit. wait for Pixel 10 is truly worthy.
I'm gonna upgrade from a Pixel 6 to a Pixel 9 pro (small form factor). I really like the visor that has leak. I Guess the Pixel 10 will get the Pixel fold2 camera distribution that i found boring
Imagine we get Pixel 9 and 10 like apple released iPhone 8 and 10. Not very likely but that would be surprising for sure.
