I've had the Pixel for 3 to 4 weeks now. I came from an S7 edge and 2 years of using Samsung. Took a little 3 months break with the iPhone as well.
Here is my experience.
1st week = confusing and frustrating. Missed a lot of features from the S7 but did enjoy the smoothness of the Pixel as well.
2nd week = really loved the Pixel for its camera. The camera is absolutely amazing on this. And i take a lot of photos so this was a huge plus for me. The performance sort of faded to the background. The S7 never gave me performance issues either.
3rd week = the phone started to feel extremely boring. The performance stopped to matter. The camera was the only thing I was lingering on to. Kept it going.
4th week in = now that I see that nougat is rolling out on the S7 I feel really torn. Went to the shop one day with the intention to get the S7 edge back but couldnt do it. Left a bad taste in my mouth.
I don't regret getting the Pixel. But I'm not completely satisfied either. It's a really weird phone. Half baked but still tastes good.
What are your honest thoughts after using the Pixel for a few months? Do you see yourself using this phone for a long time? What is the thing which has gotten you hooked?
Note: This post is not about Samsung vs Google. Just want to know your thoughts about the Pixel
