[–] BlovedMadman@lemmy.world [S] 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) My pixel 5 is still doing well and that's 3 years old, only gave it up as it's out of support permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] clegko@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago To be completely fair, I am extremely salty towards Google’s hardware division. I had a Pixel 3’s storage get corrupted and stopped booting about 7 months after purchase, and they refused to repair it or replace it (under warranty!) because I couldn’t prove I was the original owner. I was, but I couldn’t find the receipt. They eventually just stopped responding to me. I tried again with the Pixel 6 recently and ran into so many weird OS glitches that my wife’s Samsung S20 didn’t have, and that resetting / updating didn’t fix that I eventually just sold it and washed my hands of ever buying Google hardware again. permalink fedilink source parent
