[Nexus 6P General] Jammol:
Those tools I listed weren't the "useful tools" to me. Those were examples of tools that a different manufacturer developed and put into their device. I own a nexus because I use Project Fi. I use a Note 5 for work. I didn't buy it at full price because it's just a work phone, not my personal. The Nexus 6P does what I need it to do, Project Fi.

Even if it had all of those features, it still wouldn't justify the price. The Note 5 doesn't justify it's pricing. None of them do. There is no need for a phone to cost the same price as most higher end laptops or desktops. You are missing my point. It's the same reason a Mac doesn't even offer anything for how much they cost. It's a simple cloak that's been dragged over everyone's eyes since the beginning of buying and selling. "Why should I pay this much for yours when that guy's is cheaper?" "Because I'm me and I have this type of history."

It's like companies that think they are still great all because they've been around since 1909. Here's an example, John Elway used to have a car dealership here in Northern Colorado. He actually sold it about 2 years ago, yet majority of the customers still go there to purchase vehicles simply based on the fact that his name is still the business' name. The current owners actually changed the name to just Elway Motors, yet people still think he owns it, and they still go there to purchase their vehicles. Many of them were asked why they shop there instead of the other dealerships, and they stated because it's owned by John Elway.

Just because they are Samsung, Google, LG HTC, or Apple, doesn't mean they don't make overpriced devices. They all make **** products just like the cheaper guys. And in fact, sometimes you can get higher quality or more bang for your buck going to the cheaper guys.

I cut off those things because I didn't want to reply to those things. Am I not allowed to do that?:confused: I simply addressed the Apple losing numbers part of your post. I did read the rest of your post and I agree with some of the things you posted, doesn't mean I have to reply to those things. :p

By the way, your current is only directed towards everyone that wants to get a Pixel and is currently on T-Mobile. That's just one instance of the situation. Not sure if the rest of that post is directed towards me? But either way, I didn't buy the phone because I don't want to spend that much on it. Let us also not forget that there are two different versions of the phone, the Pixel, and the Pixel XL. Some people prefer the larger of the two, which starts at a much higher price. Financing phones is pointless unless you don't care of Credit, or the fact that you are paying for something you can just buy outright and call it yours. I am one of those people that pay cash for EVERYTHING that I buy. I don't like owing people money, so financing wouldn't be something I would do.

I don't think anyone here is complaining because they CAN'T afford the phone, I think everyone is complaining because of how much they and Google thinks the phone is WORTH. And then whatever else they feel like complaining about, lol. And I'm pretty sure people complain about how much other manufacturers charge for their phones too.

My problem lies with how much Google thinks the phone is worth, and to me, it just isn't worth what they are asking for. It costs less than $350 to make. It reminds me of the sweatshop issues that arose when people actually found out how much workers get paid for making a shoe that costs over 500% markup.

But hey, it's made by Google so, you know, it's worth it.
