Any of you jumping to the Pixel 4?

[Gix1k]

I am going to pre-order tonight, get it here and see how it goes. Send back if i do not like.

Thing is the screen is worse, storage is worse, build isn't as good or equal to S10

I think it's an awesome smartphone. And the price is cheaper than the other flagships. If I was in the market for a flagships this would be the smartphone for me. But, I just can't do flagships devices anymore. I don't see the point for myself owning a flagships smartphone.

Other than a few new gimmicks, I don't think it has much on an S10 besides the camera. So not that different from last year's Pixel.

I don't know why you getting so nervous about this ? Phone just was announced .

Maybe I'm making you nervous, LOL. I'm not nervous at all. Just discussing.

I certainly was considering it at one point (I've already owned Pixel 2 and 3), but now that I've seen it and the full feature set, and even face unlock scepticism aside...I can't say I'm convinced it's worth the move from an S10+. The camera looks to be very good, but aside from that I see far too many compromises.

Definently see your point , I also have the pixel 3a , did have the 3xl until traded in for my note 10+ ....s10+ i also have which is a solid phone .
Right now I'm actually content with the note 10+/1+7pro/pix3a but I'm a sucker for new devices and I do like pixel phones also .

Pixel 4 is tempting, at least for the camera and the software + updates.

Having said that, I've always felt like a bit of a guinea pig on Pixels because we are basically beta testing the cutting edge of Android. The new and unproven face ID doesn't help. And while I used to despise Samsung for the bloat and custom UI, they have done really well with One UI, the gestures, dark mode, so far they have been quite good with updates, Android 10 beta is already out, etc. Also, the S10+ worked perfect out of the box, fully supporting all carrier features such as VoLTE and wifi calling without a single call to my carrier. My S10+ has been a rock solid, dependable workhorse from Day 1.

To move to a Pixel 4, I would also have to give up a headphone jack, FM radio, edge apps / lighting, sd card, 2GB of Ram, 2 cameras, dual messenger capability, Samsung DeX, power sharing, screen size and dpi, up to 1/3 battery life reduction, secure apps and folder, display blue light filter, among other things. Those are pretty big shoes to fill for any phone, but to pay as much as I did for the S10+ not to mention the resell hit I'll take on it - very, very difficult to justify the switch to a Pixel 4 IMO.

And on top of all that, I've taken some really great photos and videos on my S10+ as well, so even the camera argument is a difficult one.

Cheaper than which flagships? Even at RRP the S10e is 50 dollhairs cheaper and the iPhone 11 is 100 dollhairs cheaper...

I wouldn't consider those flagships because they are cheaper variants of the flagship model.

Then th pixel 4 isn't a flagship either, it's a cheaper variant of the real flagship.

Personally I think that's a bit silly.

I'm sorry. I lost you there. What's a bit silly?

Thinking the iPhone 11, pixel 4 and S10e aren't flagships.

Oh boy. Nevermind my comment. You are right. I'm wrong.

 

[GrooveRite]

I will say no because Pixel devices are known not to come with an SD card slot. If it did, I would def give it a try!

That's kind of what I'm feeling at the moment, as well. The camera looks awesome, but there are a lot of things about the phone that, combined, aren't worth how awesome that camera would be.

But, it looks like a phenomenal phone and I hope it does well!

Wide angle? Non proprietary fast charging? No. Tiny battery? Yes. Fingerprint sensor? No. I don't trust Google to have a trustworthy face scan.
That orange though...
It is a great looking phone.

I think the pixel 4 is a bit rubbish, but it definitely DOESN'T have proprietary fast charging.
