I mean it's a common sense that sturdy stainless steel and aluminum side edges have higher deflection resistance than plastic side frames, which the deformation-sensitive sensors rely on to detect even the slightest of deflections? Which other manufacturers have this feature on their flagship phones? HTC, and both the U11 and U12 suffered the same problem. Or you know, don't flipping bend the phones in the first place.

are we going to see the battery test any time soon for this device?
I have a Pixel 2 and since it's still running the latest software, I'll probably wait for the Pixel 5, but I'm curious how the Pixel 4's battery compares to my phone.

Pixel 4 & 4XL, such disappointing efforts from Google for all the reasons other contributors have said. For me specifically it's the weak battery life, even weaker build strength and no fingerprint sensor. Was looking to upgrade from my Pixel 2XL, which has been a great phone, especially camera and battery life, but it won't be with one of these over-priced sub-standard offerings.

I find it embarrassing as a Pixel user that the creators of Android make an inferior and more expensive version of the iPhone 11. I absolutely love the Pixel OS but goddamn is the hardware on these things is complete trash.
No fingerprint reader, no Wifi 6, no 5G, no reverse wireless charging, an even lower capacity battery vs the Pixel 3 despite the 90Hz screen it uses, no more front facing stereo speakers and ofc, like true Google fashion, no Micro SD card slot or headphone jack and what do we get for foregoing all of those? A gigantic bezel that houses a useless radar chip and face unlock sensors. *Everyone hated that*
Oh and btw Google, Apple is still using 720p IPS screens in 2019 so you have another opportunity to copy Apple and save some manufacturing cost and charge even more on the next Pixel since you guys are so keen on doing that sort of thing.

Also why does anyone care about the 'bend test' I really can't understand, just don't put it in your back pocket lol.

Residuals for the first 2 phones mentioned are stronger than Pixel's too.

Small batteries may run out quickly but that means they charge quickly too. Just saying.

Unpopular opinion: bezels are cool
I literally bought the pixel 2 for the bezels
Another unpopular opinion: the design is really pretty
While the phone makes many compromises (battery, limited screen, bezel, -1 camera, storage, ridiculous price, no 855+, 6gb ram) it's still an upgrade for me.
I think we're all forgetting the reason people buy pixel phones. It's not for the latest and greatest specs, it's not even the excellent camera (although a key selling point for many). I think the reason we buy pixel phones is for the clean android, it's for the frequent software updates, it's for the 'pixel' experience. At least that's what it is for me.
Google isn't trying to compete with anyone here but themselves and I don't think people see that. It's like comparing your 'bog standard' car with a sports car, whilst the sports car has many things the standard car doesnt, the standard car just works. Albeit standard cars are usually cheaper. Seriously, who in their right mind buys a pixel at launch when in about a month there's black Friday. Oh and over the next year we'll see that price tank lol.
