What pixel would be the best to buy right now?

Which one would be the best to use with graphene os?
Budget friendly and spec wise

I would go with an 8A. There are many deals that can be found if you’re living in Canada or the US as far as I know and last I checked.

You can check Amazon, BestBuy, and other retailers.

Yeah there are some good deals on official stores but on marketplaces you can find it for around 200-250$ used or in box
Maybe ill get this one but ill need to do some more researching.

That price point may be hard to find. Perhaps check Facebook Marketplace for pre-owned devices.

But I would buy a new one even if it means waiting a little longer to get it. It will last a long time on Graphene so best to get a new one in my view.

Like others have said, you can’t go wrong with the 8a like but I would be on the lookout for a discounted Pixel 8, I’ve seen them be at comparable prices recently. The 8 has better specs and better build quality (plastic vs glass back).

If it’s not super urgent you could wait for the Pixel 9a which should be coming out in a couple of months but you would likely have to pay full price when it comes out.

I agree, I got mine for 14,000 baht or 414 dollars (still a lot, but for a country that doesn’t sell Pixels, this is a great deal). It also has a macro camera! Which is kind of a must for me

The best by default is always the latest, as it will have the longest support. However, if budget friendly is an option, the recs provided by others are valid.

There are bound to be some bugs in the beginning. It could be worth waiting six months or so for them to fix them.

Yeah, ill probably get a new one cause im not really on a budget. I meant that i found some on facebook marketplace for around 200-250$

It’s not that much, considering i spent like 600$ on a honor phone, dumb decision.

For pixel i would go for 9 or 9pro, fo better modem and battery life, also an extra year of software update.

In terms of budget, if it doesnt break, it will remain supported till 2031, i think it is okay to raise the budget, if you could afford it.
