MODERATORS
It is interesting that the price has already dropped on the P8 and is expected to continue to drop thru black Friday.
This is precisely why I never buy new anymore, having been burned by two previous Pixel releases in the past.
This chip situation doesn't bode well for my continued Pixel use however.
Software is important but it isn't everything, and like the article said raw horsepower does matter. For me. The most important things are battery, life display brightness, and cellular connectivity - something my pixel 6 Pro objectively fails at on all three fronts.
Combine that with all of the data theft that Google software utilizes, and I think I'm pretty much done.
