To have a Pixel 7, and get almost none of the new software-based features leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
Yes. Google is weirdly bad at this.
The thing I find even stranger is that many of the new features are pretty weak. Magic Eraser leaves noticeable smears on images. The Best Face thing often looks weird. They talk this crap up but it feels more like a tech demo than an actual feature.
Pixel folds get it worst same soc as pixel 7 but released months before the pixel 8 line so 90% of the new stuff for latest Gen don't count for it. Not to mention it's the most expensive MSRP pixel phone.
Oof, yeah that's rough. I hope they put something out for the rest of us soon, or at least signal some intention to do so. Promising new Android versions don't mean much if all the special Pixel features are locked to the newest models.
