Pixel 5 review after 10 days

I have been getting over 2 days on the battery, and even 3 days once so far. I was surprised it doesn't have a SD Card slot, but the Google Picture Management is working well for me so far. I wish the online Google Picture offered a free 128GB instead of just 16GB

I like the fingerprint sensor on the back for unlocking and it has worked extremely well.

It is fast and responsive.

Still a lot to learn getting alarm and ring tones like I am more used to, and I haven't done much with the Camera, which is one of the features I picked it for.

No negatives I have found.

Definitely a downgrade from the pixel 4 aeries

The pixel five was supposed to make a few compromises yes, but not to the point where you'd notice on a daily basis. This thing is a complete downgrade in almost every way compared to the pixel 4 series from 2019. Slower processor, lower resolution screen, lesser build quality hardware, lack of telephoto lens, no facial recognition ID, and so much more.Read full review...

Nice SFF phone!

I am replacing my old Pixel 3 with this Pixel 5. Small Form Factor is what I like, slightly larger than the Pixel 3 makes this sized right for me. Pixel cameras have always been awesome, this one is very good and it uses multiple lens like more modern phones. Although, I had a original Pixel XL with a single lens camera and that was the best ever. The Pixel 5 battery life is way better than the Pixel 3, not days long like the newer Samsung models, but the 5 battery life is very usable throughout the day without worry to find a place to charge. Some people don't like the plastic material used for the back of the phone, without a case it is easy to grip but I typically use skin type cover so the phone material doesn't matter to me. Overall, if feels lighter than the Pixel 3. Paid $300 for a "very good" condition phone with a 1 year Ebay refurbished warranty. On Amazon, the price is about $100 more for the same condition without a warranty. The condition itself could be been rated "excellent". No scratches on the screen or on the body of the phone. One thing, this phone may have had a nano coating on the screen, when I first received it and cleaned it, you could see the where the screen was swiped, I've experienced this before and I use Flitz polish. It removed the remaining nano coating and the screen is perfect with no scratches. I then put a soft screen saver as I like these the best. I am very happy with my purchase and would not hesitate to purchase from the vendor or Ebay again.Read full review...

Best Pixel out there, especially used

This phone was overpriced at launch but now used it’s a steal. 2 more years of timely (not delayed like other Android manufactures) software updates, fast and bloat-free Pixel software, great Pixel camera, excellent battery life. Great community of ROM developers if you’re into that. Oh and the perfect size for one-handed use. I wouldn’t buy any other Pixel especially the ginormous 6 and 6 Pro.

Good phone, good deal.

First of all, the price is good. Next, the battery life is better than the iPhone 13 mini which I've been using. I think that there's no need to make new phones in this price range, when this one exists, unless they can make it in smaller form factor. I bought this to check out GRAPHENEOS. Now, this is my daily driver. Display is great. There are few minor scratches on the screen, but that's okay. Read full review...

Full featured device with little left out. A solid phone that's all useful.

Perfect form and features. Best Pixel yet. Lightweight, love reverse charge, fingerprint sensor and manageable size. Battery life is better than all Pixels before. No compromises...no regrets. Well done Google. 👍👌Read full review...

Exceptional value given features and price point

Really happy with this phone. Battery is great. It's a beast for work and personal use. I don't do much gaming, but this screen resolution and refresh rate is really good for streaming video.

Not a PH-1, but the best alternative.

I replaced an Essential PH-1 and am very happy. The Pixel 5 is almost the same size, and the battery life is very good. I miss the 360 camera, and the PH-1 build quality, but it's nice to be back to the Day-0 updates for Google! Read full review...

my first google phone

i really like this phone, coming from HTC phones over the last ten years ( HTC made the original Pixel i think) i feel like it is easy to use and has great specs. I got this instead of the cheaper 5A because i wanted a premium phone that was as small as possible. i dont use my cell for games or entertainment so a big screen is not important to me. great battery life, an OS that will be updated for years to come ( i kept my last phone almost 4 years) and a great camera while fitting easily in my pocket.

Refurbished price for brand new feel.

Just to be clear, this is a refurbished unit I bought for just over $300. At that price, the product I received is well worth it for the form factor and features available (I hate how big phones have been getting!). Read full review...

Good deal on a good phone.

Seems like the phone is working well. I like the slightly smaller size than my old Pixel 2XL. Everything else is more or less the same (I can't even really tell much of a speed increase over my old phone, but I am not really a power user so....).Read full review...
