    It's a little pricey, but overall it's a good phone. It's smaller, but I prefer that. It runs smoothly, has a good camera, and I like the location of the fingerprint scanner.

    Love this phone so far. Great battery life, awesome pictures, and love the fact that they still have the back index finger sensor for unlocking and swiping down the notification shade. Android perfection!

    I have dropped it in a cheap wallet case a few times with no hiccups. I use it in the shower and water areas often and love how water has very little impact on the screen. I feel it's kinda slow, and I prefer the ease of use on the Samsung interface (for example the volume on this phone... when I turn it down it often turns down media instead of ringer because a video was the last thing I did... but I am not doing it currently). I am hoping some of this gets better with the Android update that is coming out. Overall hardware (fingerprint scanner, camera, etc) is good though. MrWhoseTheBoss says there isn't much difference between this one and the last model, but I am enjoying something new. I recommend his Youtubes on Phones.

    I am not a regular phone owner, I buy multiple phones through the year and give them to people that need one, this one is sticking with me until they can make the hole punch camera disappear from the display, this phone is fantastic from the design, I love knowing that I don't need to worry about a glass back on a phone, the battery is outstanding on this beast, the software is smooth and not laggy especially with the 90rr display, did I mention this thing has symmetry written all over it, the pixel features also keeps me here with pixel imprint, screen calls, music listener, the put me on hold I put you on hold back feature lol, among other things, there's nothing to dislike honestly imo. Everyone needs this phone.

    Amazing device. The "iPhone" of the Android world.

    A wonderful device from both a hardware and software perspective. The size of the device is refreshingly smaller than most behemoth phones out there, and the phone feels light, yet substantial. The display is incredibly crisp, and at 90Hz, it makes the entire user experience feel incredibly fluid. I wouldn't want to go back to a lower refresh speed again. The camera quality is great, though there is some unexpected graininess when using the standard 2x zoom, but it's not bad enough to discount the overall incredible quality and feature-rich camera hardware and image processing software. This really is just the best phone Android has ever had. Zero regrets.

    Very happy with the Pixel 5. It has an all-day battery, quick start-up, great user interface. The camera is excellent and people definitely noticed when I sent them pictures. So far, so good!

    The pictures alone on this phone are amazing. The phone is easy to work with as I was an Applie person prior to this purchase. I was afraid it would take forever to get around in the Apps.

    The Pixel is back. No face unlock gimmicks and poor battery like. No need for a high-end Snapdragon Processor to chew up the battery. It's the same pixel that you've come to love.

    Wasn't sure if I was going to like this phone after hearing a lot of mixed reviews, mostly regarding the hardware specs. I'm coming from a Pixel 2, which I really loved but the battery is on its way out. I LOVE my Pixel 5. The speaker may not be the best, but a Bluetooth speaker or headphones is $30 tops and WAY better sound than any smartphone on the market. The screen is crisp, the OS is smooth and clean, it does everything I want it to and nothing I don't (no bloatware like a lot of other Android phones), and the fingerprint sensor is back!!! No regrets whatsoever.
