Pixel 4, oh so orange.
Pixel 4, euro edition
To me it's just, Pixel 4 or Pixel 5/6. I don't have any other replacement for my Pixel 2.
Though I'm starting to consider moving into a custom rom. I'm a bit tired of Google adding so many services to Android. I don't want that much AI in my life. I love 50% of the features they have (like At Glance, Google Feed), but I don't use the other 50%.
In every Android version if they saved like 5% battery life, they added new services that consume 6% of it. So they never truly improved in that area. But now they will have to, because they need to maintain Pixel 4 working fine for at least 3 years.

IPhone 11 pro.. After 8 years of Android...
The Pixel 4 is awesome. My battery last all day. The Radar is pretty sick ! I feel like many of the reviews are extremely bias. Squeeze works extremely well. All around its a dope phone. I feel like Google did extremely well and the poor reviews are mostly nonsense. To speak to the small battery it doesn't really matter. I feel like Google is trying to actually solve battery problems as opportunity to grow and not just slapping big battery's in a phone. It's also half smart to release Solo on a device to the XDA community. Let's be real here most of the software innovations in Android happened right here with Cyanogen XDA and a hand full of Devs that the blathering reviewers look at as features that did not exist let alone main stream before XDA before Android. Face unlock works in the dark, in the ****ing dark.
I'm waiting till Black Friday to see about giving my wife my Pixel 3a XL and getting a new phone. It will likely be a Pixel 4 XL (if the sales are just stupid crazy) or a Pixel 3 XL. If neither of those are compelling enough, she'll likely just get a Pixel 3a and I'll keep the 3a XL.
So I'll definitely be getting another Pixel phone, it's just depends on which one offers the best deal.

I have a PIxel 4 and it is GREAT. Is there any purpose to this thread?

i got the pixel 4 for free but if it cant fix the battery life for me im going to be using my pixel 3xl for sure and give this to a family member or something. i usually always have the XL line but my 2xl is still running good and the battery is still better than the 4.
I got an 11 Pro instead of the Pixel. After a week of random problems I had enough so it's between 4 and 4XL for me. None of the reviews mention how the Pro's wide angle is a gimmick except maybe for video.
