    For the rumored extra $200 price tag, it’s disappointing that they aren’t including the better gorilla glass Victus 2, Qi2 charging, UWB, and UFS 4.0 on the Pixel 8.

    At least include the more durable glass, Qi2, and UWB. This is going to make the phone pretty out of date just by the spring. Especially because of the tendency for Pixels to get much worse over time.

    I’m a forever Android fan, but I’m getting jealous of the quality and consistency of iPhones. I just wish I could find that kind of hardware quality in something other than Samsung (because I can’t stand their software).

      I have the Pixel 6 Pro. It will be the last Google product I purchase. It felt out dated at release and it’s been plagued with so many “6o’clock news” issues if it were an iPhone. Not being able to call 911 was a deal breaker.
