Apparently I'm going to be a bit of a dissenting opinion, but I think they're interesting as an option. The appeal of "as-stock-as-possible" Android on a mid-high range phone is where I land in what I want. It's why I had a 1+ 5T and now a 1+ 8Pro, but continued software and OS issues with their version of Android and just continued price climbing and parity with the shitty OPPO OS they are using has me searching elsewhere.
I left Samsung with the...Galaxy S3? I think? And have had no will to return to their bullshit. I had an LG Nexus 5x that bricked itself, which isn't a glowing review of the brand in my eyes. Pixel is the next closest competitor, but I don't care for camera power, so it's large selling point is way down on my priority list. Nothing is as good an option as any for what I am usually looking for, tho I may wait for this cycle to complete and see what Phone 3 looks like.
- The 5x brick event was what put me off LG for good. I was happy to see them exit the market.
  I'm ok with my pixel 7 but I really want a phone that does USB c video out so I could make my commute less annoying. Hmds have come a long way and watching a 1080p movie on a large screen while riding the train sounds great.
  
  Apparently the Pixel 8 will support USB-C video out.

  Amazing! I like my pixel and will probably trade in for a new 8 ASAP. Cause that would make a huge difference for me commuting 1.5hrs a day
  
  just out of curiosity, how are you getting a large screen on a train?
  
  I've been very pleased with the xreal air. I originally picked one up to play games sitting next to my partner and would love to expand their usage.
