Including the most critical group of all - customers. It’s astonishing how little Google cares about its paying customers, at least when it comes to AdWords and GSuite, and GCP.

I think the Pixel division is the only exception, though I don’t own one so I can’t comment personally.

After 3 years of updates, Google drops Pixel support like a hot potato.

As far as I'm informed every Pixel version so far had battery degradation issues. After year or so the battery seems to have only a fraction of the previous capacity.

So does every cell phone maker. I have a pile of old-but-working cell phones without security updates anymore in a drawer somewhere.
