    If I spend 1000 USD on a device, wanting for it to come with a warranty is natural, no?

    I’d love to spend hundreds of dollars for a spare part and wait for a couple of months to get it shipped before and then do the repair myself if something that falls under the warranty happens.

    I know how fun it was, because I did it once during the Nexus days.

        Please enlighten me on how you can claim a warranty for a Pixel phone in a country where Pixel phones are not sold officially.

        …you can do that

        But that’s not very cash money behavior yes? Especially during these times. Not everyone has the disposable income for that.
