I think google has lost touch with its customers and one of the reasons it's current users went to the nexus brand. The nexus brand was priced signifcantly lower than the iPhones and other phones making it even more popular and for some a no brainer choice when it comes to buying a phone.
The new pixel line is the exact same price as the new iPhone 7... while looking "similar" to the iPhone as well. I see nothing that attracts me to paying almost a grand for a google phone now. I certainly won't be paying that much for an iPhone either. I will be purchasing a more reasonably priced phone obviously based on how my post started.
The phone itself looks great and I would love to own one, but it doesn't look like its worth what they are asking for it. I was really hoping the price was going to be more attractive and was planning on purchasing one due to how the 5x and 6p were priced when they launched. Google really got greedy here.
