Just curious, why a 5?
Yeah. Pixel 8 just launched. If you want a cheaper phone go for the 7s
Google offered $150 for my nearly new 7, I'm sure there will be quite a few on the used market.
Probably because of ROM support
That and the form factor, feature set, weight, brightness l, fingerprint sensor, weight, materials.
I'd prefer a 4 since it's plastic, but the 5 is almost exactly same size and weight.
