The price is high but they are really nice. I bought Pixel 1 on launch day and still have no desire to upgrade. (To be fair I have replaced the device a few times due to cracked glass but still a Pixel 1).

This could just be a slowdown in hardware needs thought. Good enough is sometimes good enough.

My Pixel 1 died for no reason 4 months after the warranty ended. Google Support basically said: "lol sucks". Repairing means dealing with a shitty third party service, and even the most trivial repair costs more than the device is worth.

For me the high price was totally not worth it. I have a Pixel 3 which I bought 4 months after release for 30% less than the release price. I was considering an iPhone, but the cheapest one they sell in Germany is 850€, which is a bad joke.

I got my Librem 5 devkit tough, and maybe, hopefully something will come out of that.
