Google Pixel

My review is exactly the same as A. G. of Morton Grove , IL posted on 6/2/2023. The phone would turn off with 50% or more battery and i couldn't turn it on unless it was plugged in. I researched online and was going to get new battery but i wanted google to pay for the battery. After a week the phone shut down and would never boot up again. I took it to Asurion who is a google approved repair place. New battery and phone still wouldn't start. Next... The drama and futility of talking to google to repair or replace the phone. Long story short I believe all their help is AI bots as the exchanges never answered the mystery response of "your phone has been flagged" and they will not deal with you. I filed a complaint with my state's consumer affairs... Will see if they can do anything. I'll never buy a google product again. They should be embarrassed by the support of their products.

After 1 year and 2 months my Pixel 5a phone stopped charging and then working altogether. All my files, notes, app information are gone. The $500 I paid for this phone was gone too. It's not a small amount to pay for a phone. I bought it brand new from an online retailer. The phone would constantly freeze and would need to be started. Then I noticed that it would turn off due to the battery overheating. On the Google website, they claim to have an extended warranty for Pixel 5A but Google does not honor their warranties when you contact them. I initially took the phone to Asurion for repair. They told me to contact Google due to the extended warranty because the phone was dead. There was nothing they could do. Google's customer service is abysmal. They will constantly give you a runaround and tell you to contact the retailer. After a year, what can the retailer do?

If you ever need to submit a warranty claim they will try their hardest not to give you a replacement. I have been through so much phone call and disconnect phone calls. No resolution. My phone is only 7 months old and the camera clarity is very blurry

Do not purchase. Loved my Google Pixel 3 xl...then it bricked overnight. I lost all my data. Husband had 2 Google Pixels....They both bricked!! Please do not purchase. All 3 were the Google Pixel 3xl models. Google update bricked them.

At a first sight phone looks decent. But in time I am facing a lot of bugs, like Bluetooth problems all the time, software crashes out of nowhere even without any heavy usage and I am not even talking about google maps. Maps always disconnects and especially when you are driving you always disconnecting from your route or just bouncing all around the streets even though you are not moving. On a good side photos looks good but rest is garbage. Save your money and buy other brand. It's a joke that Google owns Android and can't provide good user experience. Never had any of these troubles or bugs with my oneplus, jokers.

I switched from Samsung to Google, worst mistake ever. The Pixel 6 is complete garbage and I will never ever buy another Google product. I have had so many problems constantly with the Bluetooth Which disconnects all the time and then the assistant is not usable at all. The assistant requires an update yet always come back with an error message and can't update and I can't use it unless it's updated. Of course can't get any help would the that either. Google customer service is just as horrible.

In the 4 months that we have had our Pixel phones...it has been nothing but trouble. I have the 7 Pro and my husband has the 7. In the last 4 months I have been in contact with Google tech for various issues the last 3 months. I have had reps tell me that the issues being had are carrier issues. This phone has deleted some of my contacts, it has deleted text message threads older than the last message sent. It has switched to something called RCS in messages and has even done crazy things like delete the VPN just to make a few of these headaches. Sadly we are sick with these overpriced functioning phones for the time being.

I have had a BlackBerry forever. Though the latest version was running an Android 8 operation system which was 6 years old. So I switched to a Google Pixel 6A. Had a lot of similarities since the BlackBerry used a lot of Google apps. Within 3 months of purchase through ATT the Pixel 6a stopped sending sms text messages. Could send through data but not sms. I don't download videos or anything that could corrupt the software yet I could not send sms texts. Could text in group chats only since that's data. After numerous calls and emails to Google nothing worked to fix the phone. Never mind the many resets and fixes I tried on my own from various help web-sites

I have had the pixel 7 Pro for 3 months, recently I found a black spot on the screen. There is zero issue with the glass, still in mint condition. Took the phone to the place of purchase, they had no idea what it was but was just past the return date. Reading over Google's warranty I took it to the local authorized repair shop. They informed me that I was at fault and would cost me 300.00 to have it repaired. I'm at fault so I ordered my own screen from iFixit with tools cost 280. When removing the digitizer I found a screw had come loose and pushed into the back of the digitizer. I took pictures and a video. Started a support ticket with Google sent them the picture. They then informed me to take it to the authorized repair shop and have them go through the phone. Repair shop informed me that there's nothing they can do. And Google is still giving me a runaround. Be advised if you have a black dot under your camera it is a loose screw.

I had a Google Pixel 3 for years and I loved it. I recently upgraded to the Pixel 7. For some inexplicable reason they've made taking screenshots almost impossible. Also, when I scroll through my photos it will close if I swipe too quickly. If I'm searching for a photo that is not at the top and I'm moving quickly I frequently have to start over when my gallery disappears. So frustrating!!! I've also had problems with my voicemail. Calls going straight to voice mail, no notifications and I can no longer access visual voicemail.
