My Pixel 8 Pro has been the best of the Pixel phones I've had, but Google's phone hardware is rough. Contrary to my previous point, my Pixel 4 XL had the bloated battery issue, and I had to give that up for the 6 Pro, which had the shittiest Tensor chip leading to overheating and lack of reception in areas where I should have full bars. Gave that up for the 8 Pro, and it hasn't had any significant hardware issues so far.
So yeah, Google hardware sucks, and I'm thrilled to potentially be moving to a new Moto phone that has a Snapdragon chip and improved hardware quality.
