Google Pixel 5 Looks Interesting...

The new design of Google Pixel 5 looks very interesting. Finally an ultra wide angle lens. Snapdragon 865, Android 11 & More.

Google Pixel 5 - THIS IS SHOCKING!

Google Pixel 5 won't be a flagship phone we were expecting according to new information. Google will unveil Google Pixel 5 and Google Pixel 5 XL in October.

What if we all stop worrying about "flagship" specs and what is a "flagship" phone for a second? I know....most tech enthusiasts can't do that...but just try. Why hasn't the Pixel line sold as much as Google expected? They are too expensive for what you get. Period. Not bad phones at all, just too expensive compared to the competition. I read this earlier and wanted to share:

This isn't about Google's next phone being mid-range or any other range.
Which processor is in the phone doesn't matter as much as people like to think. Google needs to get the "whole package" right, at the right price point. If they do that, this could be Google's best chance yet at actually selling a large number of phones.

Pixel 3 a was a great start and I think the best way for Google to make more money and put quality phones at great prices in people's hands... I'd like to have both w mid-range and high specs but I understand it's not profitable with the way the other manufacturers do a better job... I do need my wireless charging can they at least throw that in .. plenty of mid range phones out there with additional features and seems Google skips on them ... We can find a happy medium .. I'm happy I got the Pixel 4 though going to keep it this time not giving it in like my 2 XL ..

Google's Answer To The Apple iPhone SE!
The Pixel 4a is seen as being one of the most promising, exciting new Android phones of this year, thanks to the combination of affordable price and exceptional user experience it is believed to possess. According to the latest information the Pixel 4a will cost just $299 for the base 64GB variant.

Some current rumors suggest that Google is going to ditch motion sense altogether with the Pixel 5. I'm not sure how I feel about that. I have kind of grown used to it, and starting to find it handy....like silencing an alarm.

We might have the last premium Pixel
That's possible. But I will still probably buy a Pixel 5 next Spring ...if the price is right.

The latest reports for the 4a show a further delay. With the general release being announced in July. But only the Black will be available initially, with the Barely Blue not available until October. That would normally put it right there with the Pixel 5 release, but that could be delayed as well.

Google Pixel 4a release date just leaked — and it's bad news [Update] | Tom's Guide


I've been using an P 3XL since January, and I have to admit that I prefer a smaller form factor phone. I'm looking forward to a phone with the physical dimensions, closer to my Pixel 2, but with a ton more screen real-estate. If the 4a had wireless charging, it would probably be my next phone, otherwise I'm waiting for the P5.

Let's hope it's battery is sufficient if you wait on the Pixel 5 ...then again they plan on going lower snapdragon so will be helpful..I heard the same about the 4a in July ...screen will be a plus for the smaller phone ...more real estate for sure ...
