Google Pixel 5's SD765G chipset is a serious underperformer Comments

Pixel should die already, doesn't sell well and poor value to customers who bought. Google should go back working with other companies to provide stock Android.

I don't like this price hike to mediocre products and consumers should be judging by their wallets.

Give me battery life over performance any day of the week. Luckily with other vendors one can have battery life and performance..

Leave it to Google to make a phone that's worse in almost every way than its predecessor.

People who buys now will get scre*** because pays a lot and after a couple of months it'll cost 400 or 450 instead of 700.
If i really wanted a pixel, clean android, nice camera, would go with the 4A. You pay 350 and that price is right. It has a 730G SoC that's only slightly slower than the 765G and the camera is good.

I believe prices will drop as soon as everyone starts reporting this slow chipset. Who wants a slow but expensive phone?

The important fact is that pixel 5 works fine with the programs we usually used, ie browsers, youtube, camera, games. And all reviews from different countries have verified thus.
The benchmark scores are useless in real life usage.
A few times some phone companies may try to boost these scores artificially as people have found.
It is time to stop this foolliness on these benchmarks scores. Pixels are fine phones with fine cameras.

And Google you have the audacity to not provide or match those software magic to your older Pixel that is not acceptable in what ever economic business you are running.

Fr did they just try to sell a phone with a midrange chipset for $699 and downclock it.

I have the Poco X3 and it has small stuttering issues, revealed even in the review. They happen usually when doing heavy loads (gaming). If the P5 is even slower, it's getting to be more like 2 generations behind the curve, instead of 1.
Owning the Pixel 3, I have even less reasons to upgrade. But I expect that Google will anyway push an update to fix the governor and kernel parameters. Still, disappointing.
