Woke up on Monday and my Pixel 6 Pro wasnt quite fitting in the case while i was checking news while having coffee on the morning. Pushed it in and it didnt seem to fit right. Took the case off to find it had turned itself into a spicy pillow and was splitting along the side. Was 1 month inside warranty, messaged support who told me it was wear and tear initially. I made it quite clear i wasnt accepting that and there wasnt even any way that internal adhesive failing would be wear and tear, never mind battery expansion. They agreed to replace it with a refurb as a goodwill gesture, how very nice of them. I upgraded the same day to a S23 Ultra and have sold the refurb to a reseller.

    The nexus was great. The pixel one was okay, I skipped the two and four. I really liked the 3 and 5. We had 2 & 3 of those respectively in the household. Both 6s were lemons. One spontaneously cracked from the inside, the other was just insanely crash prone traded it for a discount on the 7. So far I like the 7 but I think the 5 or nexus was my favorite not sure.

      So you’re basically saying that Pixels are the Star Trek of phones, every other one is decent :P

      The nexus 6P was amazing…for about 6 months. Then it bricked itself, and I was bounced between my provider, Google, and Huawei who all basically told me to get fucked, talk to someone else. Have avoided Google phones like the plague since then.

        Google gave me a free pixel XL because they knew the 6p was a piece of shit. Additionally, I’m sure Huawei sent all my info to the CCP
