I wanted to try pure android and a phone from Google for the first time. And for the last time. The phone got very hot even with normal use, many different bugs in the system, and the worst were missed calls with both the classic sim and esim. Without ringing, it just reports the caller unavailable and you just get a missed call sms, there are forums full of this on the web. The problem persisted even after the complaint and replacement with a new piece.
Great cameras
pure android
At 5g, the phone gets insanely hot
even with lighter use I had a max at the end of the day. 20% flashlights
When using the camera app or other apps ( Instagram, youtube ) the phone heats up after 15 minutes to the point where you can't even hold your finger on the screen
Missed calls, phone doesn't ring and after a few minutes you get a missed call sms.
Phone doesn't keep signal in places where other brands are OK

When I bought the phone, I wanted to order a protective glass. However, I did not find this option in the offer and therefore chose the foil. I wasn't satisfied with the foil because the first time I cleaned it with a cloth, it left smudges. Fortunately, I noticed that the foil was stuck with a bubble, so everything was resolved within the claim. At the same time, I could have had protective glass glued on and paid the difference. So the lesson is that you just need to add extra protective glass to your order and then they can glue it at any shop on the spot.
great phone with a lot of advantages, I would highlight the macro photography, which surpassed what I was able to take with a DSLR with macro rings
When purchased, you can not see the possibility of sticking the protective glass, only the protective film

Very good fast mobile, 3 great cameras, so far the best I have ever had in a mobile. If you shoot with an SLR, this piece is a good backup. It gives very balanced and surprisingly reliable results. A very nice price on Alza that was irresistible. and it was worth it. For me, probably the best photos that can come out of a mobile phone today.
3 surprisingly high-quality lenses
Very good unburnt colour and unsharpened images - good post-processing
Excellent display and sound
Pure android is incredibly snappy
Just the right size for your hand
Due to the lack of memory card slots, it is better to buy the version with 512GB memory
Unfortunately weaker battery life
I don't really know what else.

Compared to online reviews that predict terrible battery life, disappearing signal or lousy performance, the reality is completely different. After switching from the Samsung Galaxy S21, the battery life is the same, maybe even better. The poorer processor performance is only noticeable when taking multiple portrait photos in quick succession, in normal use it is not noticeable at all. And as far as signal is concerned, compared to the Samsung Galaxy S23 on the go, the Samsung loses signal quite often and even the 2G signal doesn't catch much. While the Pixel holds very steady at 5G, or 4G in more remote locations. It's definitely not a phone for everyone, it is on the larger side after all. But the pros definitely outweigh the cons.
Camera
Signal strength and stability, at least against the Samsung Galaxy S23
Speakers
Display, whether maximum or minimum brightness
Speed of SW updates
AI features in camera and elsewhere (Circle to Search, Now Playing)
Frosted glass back
Power button above the volume buttons
Glossy visor with cameras, collects fingerprints quickly
It's less compatible with the Samsung Galaxy Watch, but that's more of a minus for Samsung
It can slow down and heat up a bit during more demanding tasks, especially when shooting

I've wanted a reference phone from Google for a long time, but I still didn't like the phones. That's changed with this generation of Pixels. I have been an iPhone user for many years and use Google services exclusively on my phone. So I thought I'd give Pixel a try this year. The contents of the package is quite austere, cable, usb-c to usb-a reduction and the phone itself, otherwise nothing. I searched in vain for a charger, but that's the trend nowadays. The phone itself is superbly crafted and very nice in matte black. It feels quite heavy when you take it in your hand, but the quality is good. After switching on the great display, we logged in and set up the phone. I was very excited about everything. Everything automatically logged in, updated, everything is flying like clockwork, no hitches, no lag, nothing. The operation of the system is exemplary or flagship. The fingerprint reader is good, I've never had it not recognize my finger. Also, the Face ID analogy with the Titan chip combination works well too. In good light, it always unlocks the phone without you being able to put a fingerprint. The certification for banks works too, so you can use face ID for banking too, but only in good light. Otherwise, you have to use a fingerprint. Let's move on to the cameras. There is nothing to complain about. How many times have I taken a normal photo and looked at the photo in the gallery over and over again in amazement, shaking my head in disbelief that this would come out of my phone. And it's macro. This is one big WOW! My phone forced me to go for walks and take pictures all the time. I enjoyed the shoot immensely. Until the sobering and great disappointment of endurance came. In a normal scenario where you take your phone out of the charger in the morning fully charged and use it normally, i.e. whatsapp, browser, here and there some call, no games, a few photos, 2-3h Spotify in the background and the phone died at 5 pm. I reply to a message and 3% of the battery disappears during the message. And so it was with everything. Then I was afraid to pick up the phone to see the evening. So charging twice a day. To blame is the Tensor processor, which is inefficient and quite heating and drains the 5050mh battery like nothing. And one more observation. If you're on wifi at home, the battery life isn't too bad at 6-6.5 sometimes 7h SoT, but it's a different story when you're only on data. There I had a max of 4 to 4.5h SoT, but more commonly those 4h. And that's woefully short. I'm off wifi for a minimum of 10h every day and I wouldn't be allowed to use my phone to get through the evening without a charger. I had read that the battery would sit down after 2-3 weeks and that the AI would learn to use the phone more efficiently, but that somehow didn't happen. A slight improvement, yes, but nothing major. And carrying around a heavy power bank is not gonna cut it. So unfortunately the Pixel went out into the world. A big disappointment from Google. If there's a Tensor processor in the Pixels, it's still a better choice to have an iPhone and use Google services than this. When they get a proper Snapdragon, I'll be happy to come back, but not like this. And I say that as a Pixel and Google fan.
Great display, flat!, sunlight readability, 120Hz, AoD - nothing to complain about
The cameras made me sit on my ass, I couldn't believe the pictures coming out of it, unbelievable
pure vanilla android and 7 years of updates
certified Face ID for banking via front camera in combination with Titan chip (only in good light, otherwise fingerprint)
I haven't had the slightest problem with the fingerprint reader, it works great
Functional 5G and VoLTE
Tensor processor, that's the biggest weakness of this otherwise great device. It's probably eating the air around it. I don't understand how Google will kill a device this good with a processor this bad. If they had put Snapdragon there would be almost nothing to complain about.
Performance compared to other flags
quite frequent heating up especially during shooting
terrible battery life, with normal use the phone died around 6pm daily (the Tensor and Samsung data modem used is to blame)
Size and weight, it's already a paddle and you can really feel it in your pocket

Super phone. I'm satisfied. I definitely recommend it. I left Apple in 2020. For a long time I was changing Androids and I was always bothered by something somewhere and I couldn't choose. I now believe I will stay with Google for years.
Display. High brightness in direct sunlight.
It doesn't overheat. Not even under pressure (shooting and filming on a sunny day)
Performance (I shoot a lot and I haven't noticed it not keeping up)
Cameras. All three. In general, the quality of the photos is high even when viewed on a PC in 4K.
Pure Android
Battery life (normal use without social networking, auto brightness - at the end of the day I have 50%; Day trip in nature, took over 500 photos and 10 videos, two hours of Android Auto and streaming music, auto brightness (mostly ran at max), 5% at the end of the day)
Fast charging (from 28% to 80% in under 30 minutes)
Signal reception at a perfect level (but maybe I was just used to the Sony Xperia 5 IV, which was really bad in this respect)
Telephone call quality
Design
For me as a professional filmmaker, the video quality is disappointing (blurry, noisy, especially when viewed on a PC in 4K, you can't tell on a mobile phone). I believe Google will work on this in the future.
The flashlight at about 10% suddenly shows 1% and shuts off. This is what the iPhone 8 did to me last time. Sony Xperia 5 IV at 1% lasted a few more minutes. It could use some work. This is how you get scared and don't know what to count on, you think you have 10% and more than once it's over.

Although I'm a big fan of Pixels, I didn't keep it. One should have specific reasons why one buys Pixel (Graphene for example). Otherwise, for the same money, the S23 Ultra makes more sense to a wider audience. The Samsungs need a lot of combing over, getting Gcam and others, but in the end it will be a lot more music for the same money.
probably the best calibrated camera output of any phone currently on sale
vanilla Android
material design at its best
GrapheneOS option
flat display - no problem with panzer glasses
Unfortunately, Tensor still doesn't catch Snapdragon at all
128GB base memory is not enough, extra charge for 256GB unchristian
I missed a few (but more important) improvements from OneUI - e.g. enable always-on only if there are unread notifications
persistent problems with Samsung modems - in 5G networks and in general
relatively limited customization of the environment
