I found this, I’m wanting to get a pixel tablet in about a week or so. Title just got me wondering a bit, though it’s probably just a little bit sensationalized

My Pixel 6 issues (originally bluetooth, which now (mostly) finally works, but now overheating and a factory reset to fix background networking just dying) turned me off pretty hard. I ended up getting another Android tablet instead and it, thankfully, has mostly been great.

I’m still really on the fence about sticking with Google devices for my phone. It’s even push me to consider going back to Apple, which I really don’t want to do. I’d rather stick with Android, but I also don’t want bloatwere and/or spyware (in addition to what using Google apps already gets me).

Im in the same boat, I like my pixel 6 pro, but less about device issues, I’ve had my fair share of them. To me google has left me pretty sour, and as someone who has been a huge android and was a fan of Google services. I just can’t give a company my money when they cancel and sell off the services that I loved.

Pretty sure I’ll be buying my first iPhone if I like the looks of the new 15.
