looks good but, 04 Apr 2022but again as it always is with google phones, you'd better find something else to purchas... morehave you watched any reviews before you bought this device? everyone mentioned that it has a mediocre CPU, it's not fast by any means (yes it does takes a second before the picture is processed), it's actually quite durable unless you work on constructions (which can be hazardous for any device); if you had all those issues with it, why not return it weeks after using it mentioning all those issues you claim to be having; personally this is by far one of the best devices I've had over the years: battery is excellent (2 days minimum) very good camera quality, monthly updates and I do use a sleeve for protection

    but again as it always is with google phones, you'd better find something else to purchase. been using it for a few months and:
    1. good camera, but slow processing. also bugs, sometimes front camera doesn't work for days.
    2. fragile phone, not durable at all. horrible hardware. one small fall can take you to the lab to pay for new internal parts that were damaged due to a ridiculous fall with a case on.
    3. bad speakers.
    4. google support is basically non existent and if you had an update that messed up your phone, good luck, no help from them.
    i'm amazed people still buy google phones. they are one of the worst phones i've ever used.

              Google should make a phone series like the Pixel 5 as Apple did on the Iphone SE. but it renewed, same screen size, same symmetrical bezels, get rid of the rear fingerprint scanner and instead put it on the side or in screen, (side-mounted is more convenient but it will make the pixel too thick) same material or use the glass back as the pixel 4, this phone need to be powered by google tensor 2 so the phone will be more capable in heavy use, I love minimalist phone and gaming is essential too, and of course 90hz minimum for this phone, if google see this you should name this phone google Pixel 5R. Dumb ideas but this is just my opinion

                          Why are you not providing sound tests for many of the google phones? I love that you do these tests as it has really helped me find the best phones. But your Google 5a review says you were not able to test for volume either - any plans to do this in the future? Thanks! It's so hard to find a reasonable priced phone in the US that plays decent music volume!

                              I have been using pixel 5 for six months long, for experience, everything is almost okay because when I decided to buy this device I have already known that it was just a mid-range device and I didn't expect it like the flagship device.
                              I use it for daily work only.
                              Its camera is very good for me.
                              The battery is fine, I use it morning till night.
                              It's light and compact with my hand.

It was an overpriced, overhyped and ... morePaid $280 for mine (with trade in of two year old phone). That kind of changes the narrative. For that price, it's been a pretty good phone for the last 14 months. So, yes - I agree with "underrated" for sure. The call screening and spam management is beyond what anyone else offers. That alone has drawn envy from others.
