5 points due to which Pixel is not very successful
- Limited availability: Pixel phones are not available in all countries. Service centers are also a problem.
- phone high price: Pixel phones are generally more expensive than other Android phones.
- Lack of marketing: Not spending as much money on marketing as other manufacturers.
- Identity Crisis: Google’s phones don’t have a strong identity like iPhone and Samsung.
- Software Intensive Approach: Google uses pure version of Android in its phones.
However, despite these challenges, Pixel phones have a large number of loyal fans who appreciate the company for delivering a pure Android experience. Google is now expanding the availability of its Pixel phones in more countries. Apart from this, it is making major changes from AI to camera. Therefore, it is possible that the sales of Pixel phones will increase in the coming years.
