Pros & Cons
Pros
The battery life and screen are clear. Waterproof is nice, and battery life is awesome. Definitely recommend pixel to anyone switching from iphone.
It is endless. No bloat to speak of. Fits perfectly. Overall, happy camper.
This phone is way smaller than my previous but runs much smoother. The screen was perfect and only a few scuffs on the back. I hope it lasts, as it is a refurbished phone.
The fingerprint reader is the best one i have found on an android cell phone. It's very sensitive and and doesn't lose it's fingerprint scan. Also works great with my smart watch running wearos. Nfc.
Cons
Screen freezes often, i have to reboot. Autocorrect is non-existent.
They really have bad ecosystem. Vibration is undetectable.
The device is great except it doesn't work reliably as a phone. The only pro is that i kind of like the user interface. Would recommend going through a more reputable source.
The speaker is worse, it makes a buzzing noise and the audio is inconsistent. The bluetooth sometimes transmits at something like 25% of speed the sound sounds metallic, i have to reboot.
If you buy this phone now that its a year old, i feel like it's going to be unusable before the end of its life. Terribly disappointed and frustrated with the quality of this phone for $400.

Downsides are really obvious, though, the sound is terrible, and the touch screen capabilities don't work on the outer parts of the screen.
Price
The price was right and the phone looks and feel like new!
This was under $200 and it's very nice.
Unfortunately, it now seems expensive for an older phone.
Shipping
Phone arrived lightning fast and in perfect shape.
Tried renewed first and was sent bad phones, twice.
Phone shipped with android 11 but updated to 12 during set up.
Packaging/appearance
Also, it arrived in excellent condition, takes great pictures, runs smoothly, etc.
Came with unsealed boxunlocked mobile simgreat battery
My phone was marked as new and came in a sealed, though not shrink-wrapped box.
Competitiveness
I returned that one and went to a different seller, crownproducts, and theirs was confirmed to be a new phone.
I tried to go back to samsung with their new flip phones, etc.
With lg out of the market, i was left with the options of switching carriers, refurb phone or a new brand.
There is a lot on par with samsung and apple, a lot to love about this phone.

I have the most disproportionately small hands of any person i have ever known and ever since they started increasing the size of smartphones my tiny hands have managed to drop and break every last one at some point always after numerous drops tempered glass and decent cases be damned

I am clumsy sure but i have always wanted a smartphone that would actually fit onehanded and with a death grip in just one of my tiny hands not both
