According to a new report, Google’s 2025 lineup of Pixel phones unsurprisingly includes five new devices in line with this year’s batch.
I wish they just stopped making these so often. We’re beyond even generational improvements at this point. We’re barely making any improvements at all
I don’t really see any downsides to annual phone releases. For those people who want to upgrade every year, they can, for everyone else, you upgrade when you want to and you get a pretty new phone. I definitely agree the improvements for slab phones has slowed down a bunch, but there are still pretty big leaps in foldables, etc.
There’s no need for this consumerism. Is wasteful and unsustainable.

You really can’t see any downside in upgrading your phone every single year? I’ll give you a clue, it starts with an E and ends with a T and it is constantly being degraded by the mining and manufacturing required to flood the market with annual releases that are barely an improvement on the previous iteration.
If you’re upgrading your phone every year, that is a personal choice. Plus, most people who do that trade-in/sell their old phone which gets used by someone else.
In theory, phones would be cheaper if they had longer shelf life.
Similarly, we don’t need new cars every year, but the beast must be fed, right? Right?!
pixel is literally becoming the iphone
That was the plan all along. Google played the long con with Android.
iPhone SE doesn’t come out every year, and Apple doesn’t have a foldable.
I’d argue the 9a is more equivalent to the regular 16, the regular pixel is the plus. Then the Pro and Pro max are the pro and pro xl
It was only a couple years ago that I would mock iPhone users for buying overpriced phones but they’re 1:1 on pricing now, and the iPhone is a wayyyy better value…
I hope this Pixel flops and they get some sense knocked into them…

Pixel is the device for custom ROM… Why so much hate. Let Bromies pay the cost jfc
True but also doesn’t contradict anything I said.
