I'm considering getting a Pixel 7 or 8, how do you like your device in general? I'm looking for a cheapish, hassle-free device that doesn't require much maintenance or tinkering with and that just works.
For cheapish, put an "a" at the end. Unless you're looking for a status symbol or the ultimate camera, you won't care about the difference in models.
Pixels are great phones, I've been on them since they were still called Nexus. There are hints of enshittification, with Pixel-only features and what not, but it's not gotten out of hand yet, and I will argue Pixels are the best (non-de-Googled) Android experience -- as they are meant to be Android showcases.
Thank you! This sounds like it's what I am after. I've been using Xiaomi phones for the same purpose, but they started neglecting software side heavily since last year or so. This should be a good replacement.
