Google Pixel 5

Is it only me that finds the naming of the new phones weird?
Pixel 4 was last year. Yet Pixel 4a only launched recently. They're now following it up with Pixel 4a 5G, which is more like a cut down version of Pixel 5 than a 5G version of Pixel 4a. It's just... odd.

My opinion is unless your big into mobile gaming I doubt you'd see any performance difference in day to day tasks v something like the s20. Which will probably be about 90% of their target market

I went green. Fancied something different. Ultimately I can put a skin on it if I don't like the colour.
Weird that they didn't
I did think that, I'll proly just put a black case on anyway
I have a cracked 3XL which I love and hate anything other than stock Android. Checking the difference between the CPUs, it's the GPU side that suffers the most. I seldom game on my phone so I might not miss the extra power vs having a more efficient phone. I might miss the .3 of an inch screen wise however.
Contract is up in November and will likely buy outright if there's any offers due around then.

Extremely disappointing for the price, £600 for a mid-ranger, and missing the secure face unlock.
Do people realise the phones you can get for 600 notes right now?

Easy about £150.
I believe you need to go via CPW.
I've ordered the chromecast. Been waiting for it since the start of the year
Yep me too. What’s your delivery date estimated as?

You don't, it goes via Google.
I think the 4XL is better value now it's come down in price.
The headphones so work out a pretty sweet deal I think especially for the 4a5g. I don't need them, might flog them, but will see how they are, I have the in ear versions for plane travel (do long haul for work, or at least was doing before covid) the over ears might work out more comfortable, or maybe just good for TV watching at night.

Was tempted by this but no telephoto is a deal breaker. What are the alternatives for similar price/specs but with wide angle and telephoto camera? I don't need top hardware specs
