Which is the best phone company in terms of consistently putting out good phone products.

    I’ve owned two Google phones (original XL and the pixel 4 XL) and both died at about 2 years. It may have just been bad luck, but it soured my whole outlook on them.

      The ones I’ve used that trickled into my family:

      • OG Pixel XL, alive, retired
      • 3 XL, alive, in active use
      • 3a XL, alive, in active use
      • 5, alive in active use
      • 6a, alive in active use
      • 6 Pro, alive in active use

      I’m debating between Fairphone 5 and a Pixel 8 Pro for my next. It depends on FP5’s camera performance and it’s frequency band allocation for Canada, as well as Pixel 8 Pro’s battery performance. I could keep my 6 Pro too as it works flawlessly.
