    They missed out on many things too. While the Pixel Pro has an LTPO display, the base model doesn’t. They only ship with UFS 3.1 storage despite UFS 4.0 being available. Charger is still not bundled.

    Heck, give anything except for AI.(144Hz screen anyone? Motorola has them). I never used Assistant and after trying Gemini out for some time, disabled it as well.

      Charger is still not bundled.

      That is an absolute pro argument though. Who needs yet another charger?

        The companies stopped giving chargers so they can sell them later to customers as an extra accessory and make more money. This wouldn’t be a problem if there was a uniform standard. But USB PD isn’t used by majority of manufacturers. My 33W charger can’t charge my Samsung device fast which only draws maximum of 25W because previous is based on VOOC thing.

          The idea is to reduce waste. Everyone I know has a 100w charger with multiple USBC ports. I only use one or two chargers for all my devices. I usually throw away the bundled chargers because they’re shit and worthless.
