My two year old Pixel 7 still feels like on day 1, and before that my Galaxy S8 worked flawlessly for 4 years (I just broke the display but it still worked fine when I replaced it with the pixel)

My wife and I'd Pixels were rock solid until one day a Google update came along and killed them with an unrecoverable loss of critical functionality. The only way I'd recommend one of these is if one heavily values having the newest thing for cheap, or for the wide angle camera.

I like Pixels cause of the great custom rom/alternative os support

If Google's not the final say in driver QA then I think it's fantastic. But, the last phone that I've rooted was an S5. I don't know what's up today.
