Google has been developing its own phones for a decade now, although it started taking things more seriously when it pivoted from affordable Nexus phones to premium Pixels. These high-end devices are supposed to offer buyers the purest taste of Google’s next-gen mobile operating system, and showcase what a high-end Android has to offer compared to the latest iPhones. But Google is far from perfecting its smartphone-making skills and the Pixel 4 is no different from its predecessors.
Google is now once again forced to repair its latest phone via software updates, just as it has had to do shortly after the release of every other Pixel phone. Other smartphone makers have had issues with brand new flagship handsets as well, of course. The iPhone’s Antennagate and Bendgate issues, as well as Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 fires and the Galaxy Fold fumble, come to mind. But no other phone maker has had to issue quick, important fixes for every single phone it has ever launched, so this is a tradition Google undoubtedly hopes will come to an end this year.
