It's nice, but Pixels are so expensive.

Getting a used one is cheaper AND you don´t give money directly to Google. Or wait a year or two for the other Graphene phones.

They're even expensive used.

They did go up a bit this year but if you set alerts on your preferred marketplace and be patient, you'll find one at a decent price. I started shopping pixels last November and pulled the trigger on my preferred model by first week of January. Worth the wait all the way.
