The closed display halves almost touch, and that can smash debris into the screen.

    I think the biggest issue with Google hardware is that there is always at least one huge flaw. My pixel watch for example has terrible battery life. My 7 Pro display got a green tint and died while I was using it to navigate, after two months. I RMA’d it, but the display I got back had a disabled fingerprint reader.

    It’s always a gamble with Google hardware sadly. :(

      Yeah, I don’t trust Google hardware enough to spend 2k on something.

        Pixel 7a here. My battery life is far worse than my 4a 5G. So much buyer’s remorse.

        But if I’m being honest, I’d drop silly money for an android phone that is small enough to actually fit in my hand and pockets comfortably.
