I wonder if there is something subpar about whoever Google is getting the batteries from for the A series phones.

    Pixels of this generation can get up to $1500 USD. If that’s not flagship territory, I don’t know what is.

      True, but that’s just the price they charge. The actual value of CPU performance, build quality and part quality indicates a midrange device.

      In regards to the Pixel Fold (the $1500 devices), well, those in the market for a foldable already prefer to sacrifice device longevity and some practicality for the double screen, and usually aesthetics and gimmicks cost more than bare practicality. The foldables are in a different league, but still are outclassed by others in their price range.

      Never seen a 4a or a 6a sold for 1500 Bucks. Dunno where you live though…

        That is correct! However they said “the pixel series” meaning the entire lineup of pixels.
