One problem would be, if they go smaller it gets more expensive and then there is less space for camera/battery and so on. So you pay more for less power.

Maybe Google finds its way like Apple and will get a wider range of phones.

What is your current phone?

In todays world the Pixel 8 is a small phone. It has nearly the same size as the IPhone 15Pro which is also a small phone.

Is there any flagship phone with smaller dimendions?

I think there could be a big hardware change for people who are interested in the photo area. I want to see how that bigger sensor and AI performs. Currently there are not many brands who stand a chance sgainst the Pixel photo quality. Smartphones resching a goof point for a second camera.

But besides this, i also agree that locking Software features is BS and they should not copy Apple with that.

I dont know how, but i have currently 68gb of App data on my phone. Im a photographer and traveler and i already try to push photos to cloud. But sometimes its not possible. So im happy about 256gb, so i dont need to care.

I want to switch to a Pixel 8 Pro, but im considered with that price tag and i need to pay 70€ for additional 128gb of storage...

I mean they promoted it with more MP cameras and better video, that will all take up storage.

I think its fair to call it BS not starting with 256gb as a basis.

is there an alternative browser for android? im very happy sbout uBlock instead of using a VPN for blocking Ads. I stopped using Chrome, since there are now add ons for mobile.

My Huawei P30Pro NE only received 1 Update and im thinking the 8Pro could be the final replacement. Im still waiting for Battery tests.

My work phone is a IPhone13pro and battery is crazy good there. I hope Pixel can get closer to Apple.

I guess they have then 7 years time to fix battery life or make it worse every year.

On Android there is xManager (Spotify) and Revanced for YouTube Music. I didnt encounter that many problems over the years. You dont get HighBitrates, but everything else works.
