Although if they're not going to be giving us larger amounts of expensive internal hardware they shouldn't be charging these ridiculously increasing prices.
I agree with all of this except the prices thing. These prices are directly inline with current phone costs.
Yes, 4gb is perfect and will work for the next 3 years. Again more ram doesn't mean anything as anyone with a galaxy can tell you, it's still laggy as hell and hiccups compardd to the optimized pixel OS on a pixel phone.
