Three reasons why I did not buy the Google Pixel 5

I have been an avid fan of stock Android phones since the Nexus One. I still have my nexus one with my name engraved on the back of it. I have owned several Nexus phones followed by the Pixel one and Pixel 3. I was the perfect candidate for the Google Pixel 5 and to be honest I was looking forward to it as I needed to refresh my phone.

Unfortunately, Google had decided to disappoint this time, and below I will share the main three reasons that had killed my interest in the Pixel 5 and caused me to buy the Samsung S21 Ultra which I will review later in detail. I hope Google will be reading this, and address these drawbacks in future releases.

Google Pixel 5 Maximum Storage capacity is limited to 128GB. 

Google Pixel 5 Limited to a single Storage configuration of 128GB

Limiting the storage capacity of the Pixel 5 phone at 128GB had been The Reason I decided that I need to find a different phone. I might have tolerated the other two issues if there was a 512GB option for the Pixel 5. I might have even survived with a 256GB option, but limiting it to 128GB had killed it for me. 

As Google is pushing to kill the unlimited online storage offer and my Pixel 3 128GB was getting out of disk, buying a new 128GB phone with no expandable storage did not seem to make any sense. Google please offer a larger disk configuration, as people need it! Data is king these days and people would like to keep their videos and photos!! Offer a higher disk capacity like other vendors even if you leave the basic config at 128GB!! Many of us are willing to pay extra for a higher disk capacity config. You are losing customers for a problem that is very easy to fix.

  Google Pixel 5 had no expandable storage SD slot 

Alright! Alright! Before you jump on me, I know that neither Apple nor Samsung are offering expandable Storage SD slots on their flagship phones. They have though made up for it by providing larger storage configuration options on their phones with both offering 256GB and even 512GB options. Google please fix your storage capacity issue on your flagship phones!

Google Pixel 5 is targeted only to the Mid-range market. 

With the release of the Pixel 5, Google had decided to ditch their high-end devices customers and unlike with their previous generation of the Pixel phones, they did not release a high-end version. They have released only a mid-range device targeted toward the larger sector of the market. 

This had been a disappointment to many like me who was looking forward and expecting a high-end device from Google. Google, I hope you can think again about the high-end devices market as there are many like me out there!!!

Hope you find this article useful. Please share the article if you find it useful. Please share your opinion in the comment below. Are you going to buy or did you buy the Google Pixel phone? Is any of the problems I had with the Google Pixel impacting your decision? Do you think Google should change how they are going about their Pixel devices in the future?

Great Little War Game

Great little war game

Great Little War Game!!!!! a fantastic turn-based strategy game from Rubicon, this is a game you need to own if you like turn-based strategy, and the update is going to make it better than ever.

User always call Great Little War Game “great” without hesitation, but they hardly call it “little” – not with 20 campaign levels, a 10 level IAP expansion, and tons of maps for pass-and-play multiplayer and AI skirmishes. This isn’t a game that’s over quickly – the levels take time and multiplayer matches can turn into all-out war.

The campaign gives you a thorough introduction to the game’s many units, from the humble Engineer to mighty tanks, warships and aircraft. Early on, you learn the simple controls – tap to select and move, hold to see range and movement – and then then you’ll learn to capture the enemy’s resources and base. You’ll also need to pick up vital strategies like holding high terrain, defending your resources and picking the right spot to lay an ambush.

You’re set against enemy forces controlled by an AI that poses a challenge without becoming frustrating. In each level, you’re facing ongoing assaults by the enemy while you try to achieve a goal. Sometimes you need to capture the enemy base. Other times you’re left to hold out against a superior foe or to struggle to build up your resources before being overwhelmed. Your performance is ranked on how quickly you succeed.

Great Little War Game isn’t just an impressive strategy game; it’s also pretty darn funny. The cut scenes between levels feature your army’s Generalissimo and his terribly courageous approach to warmongering. User’s never seen someone lead so bravely from the (distant) rear. Unit voices, animations and descriptions also offer up some laughs.

They always had a chance to go hands-on with the upcoming updates, so hopefully we’ll see more updates soon. The biggest change is the addition of difficulty modes. You’ll start on Basic difficulty, and there are three higher modes to unlock by beating the campaign with each. Damage increases for both sides as you play on higher difficulties, so you’ll need to be very careful about keeping your army safely out of range while picking off the enemy.  The AI also gets more cash to spend, and it’s a little smarter in all modes, so skilled players are going to be challenged.

Great Little War Game is also getting a cosmetic bump, with improvements to lighting and water, multisampling and bump maps. It looks very nice – still cartoony, but much more polished. Despite the nice new look, 1.4  users feels snappier than ever on 3GS. As for the one thing some of you have been holding out for – the game’s 16 achievements now sync to Game Center. Three new skirmish maps have been added (including a sweet little nod to this site). On top of all that, there’s a new 15 level campaign,

Rubicon’s always been very responsive to their fans, adding fixes and updates based on feedback. They’ve adopted a lot of ideas from users on our forums, so if you’ve got any suggestions, make sure to stop in.
