North American sales are bad for everyone, except, miraculously, Google.

Well.. contract lengths are getting longer, what do they expect?
Also, one phone is very much like another these days. You don't get a lot by upgrading.
I picked up a Pixel 6 for about three hundred. The last phone I had was a Moto One Action. I prefer the Moto for a lot of things but the irony is the final reason I had to get rid of it is the USB-C charging port was fucked. Of course the battery was very crap by then and the screen was cracked to hell too.
I really like that phone though. Lots of functions just by shaking it, like the flashlight came on when I tomahawk chopped it twice. Super handy. If I could have fixed it for a reasonable price I would have.
That USB-C thing made me laugh though. I've had to use iPhones for work a lot, and the one thing I really like was clicking in the lighting port to charge it. Never failed. On more than one android the USB-C gets wonky, where you have to tilt the cable to get the connectors to touch and stuff. Not bad, but not even as good as the old USB mini chargers.
I love Moto actions. The twist for camera, the shake for flashlight are both awesome. Too bad they don't seem to use AMOLED screens anymore. I'm on Pixel 6, but held onto my Moto Z, first Gen, for as long as I could.
