Google Pixel Phone
This phone looks pretty good and considering replacing my iPhone 6 with one instead of waiting for iPhone 8 which will likely be more of the same. It has all the hallmarks of being a true iPhone killer! A first for Android, optimized for Google's own hardware, highest rated camera, unlimited cloud storage for photos and videos, premium build and design, Google Assist and of course a headphone socket.

That actually looks a bit interesting does that, Googles take on what an Android phone should be rather than a third party interpretation. The quick switch adaptor sounds like a nice touch too.
*mind you I've done a bit of reading around and they're only IP53, which is a bit pants for a £600 smart phone. |
I'd have one of those, nobody would realise I'd switched.

Is it not just a rebranded HTC phone?

Rebranded in so far as an iPhone is a rebranded Foxconn phone!

Hmm, these do look kinda good. I may have to see what they're like.
I need to get a phone that connects to the VW in car entertainment thingy (mirrors the phone etc.) Hopefully this one would, I know iPhones and Samsungs do, but my piece of crap, 'made in a danker and bloodier sweatshop than an iPhone' ZTE phone is a complete piece of shoit. On a pay monthly tarif though, so it's $45 as opposed to a contract deal that would be at least $120 per month :eek: I would have to go with phone only and use it on this prepaid thing, but $700+ is a lot of money! |

Wow! Just read that Android now contains features that will only be available on the Pixel phones, thats a kick in the face for other manufacturers and a good glimpse at the future.

That doesn’t mean it won’t ever arrive on other Android devices in the future. It would be stupid of them if it didn't at some point. They are limiting the features now so that they can flog the pixel.
|
I don't think Google will be providing free unlimited full size photo and video backup for any other Android phone or apps that are tied to specific hardware of the Google phone.
|
I mean't the google assist features etc. which is already partly available in the allo client anyway.
|
I think it's just the beginning, Google can't progress at the rate that Apple can with such diverse hardware and slow adoption of the latest OS.
|
Utter rubbish most of the pixel "features" are just added into Nougat which it uses.

Such a loser you are Jack. How do you get by on a day to day basis i wonder, continually checking this forum for insults against the idiots in Cupertino making devices that dont sell as much as they would like. Apple are having crap sales, the iPhones are as exciting a toilet paper. Android manufacturers at least are having a go can I say 'destroying everything else in real world tests?' thank you. :hjtwofing |

Look, if it had a silly wrap around screen but otherwise looked like an iPhone you could say they'd copied Samsung. As it is it's almost identical to an iPhone and even nougat is moving closer to iOS styling. You won't see that though, too much custard in your eyes.
More BS. Wash your teeth... |

With circa 25Million sales of the S7 edge by the end of Q2 2016, Apple would love a slice of that figure.

That's awesome but a bit weak, Apple sold 40.4 million iPhone units in Q3, that's one quarter not two and you don't see me bleating about it.

If Apple are indeed doing swimmingly (which they are not as any Google search will show) why are they trailing in global smartphone sales.. globally. (And not just smartphones...)

Share prices on the way up and approaching a 5 year high, yeah going really bad for Apple.

Apple have been having a bad time for all of 2016, if shares have gone up so what? Samsung shares have went up and down for months.

Keep it, I will put up a poll to see that its actually a Jack the troll thread. |
Will you two guys give it a rest? It is getting to the point where you two cnuts turn up on a thread that is half decent (which is a rarity in this place now) and ruin it.
