They're just saying that the other phones on the market are larger than they'd like, and I personally agree. The only "making fun of" in that comment is the commenter making a joke about how the other phones are large enough to be considered a slab.
What about the USB-c connector? Can a headset be connected there with a 3.5mm USB-C/jack connector? Can the sound be output on this GP 5 because this USB-C port?
I suggest a special edition with 865 + snap dragon chipset with a special color maybe off white like the Porsche edition of the black berry and the huawei mate series

Most screen phones are great for enjoying games and watching movies when on the go so if you want to play tetris and want to watch just movie trailers on your small phone then peace be upon you brother. Meanwhile i am enjoying my 6.8 inch phone where i can enjoy game playing and watching media

What a refreshing change not to be holding a massive slab, the Pixel 5 feels a perfect size in the hand, the screen is wonderful, the cameras are still very impressive even by today's standards and the battery life is extremely good, performance doesn't feel any worse than my recent SD855+ phone based on everyday use rather than benchmarks. I just cant help feeling £550 would have been a more realistic price to ask for it, that said one forced my arm up my back to buy it.

Excellent body and android 11 . Why no card slot and no jack ? Cameras must improve very much. Price must decrease very much to sell more.

This seems overpriced now the that iPhone 12 mini is coming with way nicer hardware. I can tell the price will tank fast though
Once again Google disable displayport output in
USB 3.1 Alt-mode on pixel phone's ?
When even Google say:-
"Currently, DisplayPort is the most widely implemented alternate mode, and is used to provide video output on devices that do not have standard-size DisplayPort or HDMI ports, such as smartphones and laptops. All Chromebooks with a USB-C port are required to support DisplayPort alternate mode in Google's hardware requirements for manufacturers. A USB-C multiport adapter converts the device's native video stream to DisplayPort/HDMI/VGA, allowing it to be displayed on an external display, such as a television set or computer monitor.
The only reason i have not been able to buy Google phones is the screen size. Their screen size is too small. how do you bring out 3 versions and none of them is up to 6.9 inch screen. Very disappointing .
Hello.
So, i have to say that most people don't seem to understand that most numbers in AnTuTu are just for show, they don't affect your user experience at all unless you play very demanding games for hours after hours with no pause lol.
And someone else was talking about ram problems on pixel 2 xl, like low ram means constant restarts or something like that. Well it is not the case. I use a phone with 2 gb ram and it never restarts. I even play prety demanding games on it...on low performances but it still works and no restarting.
This thing about giving more and more of everything is just corporatist bulshit. No one will ever use 8 gb ram on a phone. This is just if you want to keep all apps in your phone opened in the background at the same time, in that case i recommand a visit to the psiholog doctor.
I don't see any problems with this phone outside of price. I think it is slightly overpriced and also in my country i can't find it unless i buy from amazon or even more overpriced from a local store.
Only haters and trolls in the comments, lol
Wow 2020 phone with these specs...not good totally underwhelming
Feragoth, 15 Oct 2020Now that the first reviews are in its obvious that the phone is more than the sum of its parts... moresee above your comment what Tom pogo said,and then may be you will understand something.
I just had mine delivered. All I can really say is disappointed. I’ve been a nexus and pixel fan from the start but this year really is the worst phone they decided to bring to the masses.
The photos still have to processed after the photo is taken because of the lack of the pixel core neural engines missing. This meaning that when you take a photo of what you think looks good, the phone then processes it and it comes back like a different photo more often than not blurry or darker than what you shoot.
STEER WELL CLEAR OF THIS ONE! The
Now that the first reviews are in its obvious that the phone is more than the sum of its parts.
I havent seen a single review where people complained about the processor unless you are heavily involved in gaming, which means the phone will perform just fine for 90% of the user base out there.
Couple that with a camera that is sill among the best even in 2020, a clean UI with timely updates, a great screen, compact size, wireless charging, an extremely good battery life and an aluminium build its actually an absolute no brainer especially if you factor in the Bose headset that you got when preordering the device. Overall the price drops to 400 Euro that way.
Sure you get the likes of Xiaomi, One Plus etc for a similar or better price but none of them will offer the package the Google can offer.
Stop comparing phones based on Antutu scores and check out the phone yourself especially if you are looking for a phone with a compact size.

Google wants to focus on user experience for a descent price. Google understands that people don't want a good looking specsheet but a satisfying user experience.

The Pixel line is about simplicity. Google have started going back to their roots with everything they make. By making an affordable phone that still has water resistance, insanely good cameras for photo or video, easy software, great build quality and real updates, you get a phone that will absolutely make anything else feel overpriced and not worth it.
The best phones to date have been the ones with less tech than others. The Nexus line and even OnePlus line as an example prove big tech doesn't always mean the best. The Nord as an example does almost anything the Note 20 does but costs half.
I am not a Google fan but I would give 100, even 200 Euro more for this device to get it with Snapdragon 865 or even 855. What a pity, that Google didn't want to choose a better solution for it. In this case I have to think about Pixel 5 or iPhone 12 (mini).
