2. Bloatware - wtf is samung internet, just keep that garbage off my phone, I'll use chrome thanks.
3. No visual voicemail support - this killed it for me.
4. Poor Google assistant integration - not even sure what bixby is.
Overall it's annokay phone, but for $1850 (with the wireless charger) it's too many compromises.

I barely pay attention to hardware specs at all these days, to me it sounds like the early 90's when every game console manufacturer was bragging about how many bits they had.
I paid the Pixel premium for exclusive (or at least early) access to a software experience that is slowly becoming more like the phone from the movie Her. unfortunately it's not yet at the point where my phone is hiring surrogate ladies so that it can be intimate with me, but I'm sure Google's working on that for a future Android release.
