The 6.3-inch Google Pixel 9 Pro is a high-end smartphone with the Tensor G4 AI processor, great cameras and an extremely long update period of 7 years. This review from Notebookcheck will show whether the Google phone, which has already received Android 15, is worth buying.
I would but I’m not sure how much longer it’s going to last
I’m mostly an open source/libre software user (this LineageOS tablet I’m using right now is entirely Google-free) so as long as AOSP upstream is available I should be fine.
I still pay for and use some Google services for the sake of convenience but I could self-host them in principle. Or cease consuming them altogether. Same applies for some proprietary apps.
