Oh man the pixel 3 was so good! Autofocus front camera was unrivalled.

Are the newer ones not as good? My partner is considering upgrading as he slightly broke the charging port in his (constantly using broken chargers and wiggly them to make it work 🤦‍♀️) but I want to keep mine for at least a bit longer. I've never had a smartphone for 5 years and it's a goal of mine lol. It'd be a shame if an upgrade has a less impressive camera.

I upgraded from the pixel 3 to the pixel 6, and the selfie camera wasn’t anywhere near as good. That’s when I discovered the pixel 3 front camera was autofocus! The rear cameras were crazy good though.

In the end I returned it because I couldn’t handle how frustrating the in screen fingerprint sensor was on the regular pixel 6, and bought an iPhone 13 Pro instead. FaceID is magic, but I wouldn’t rule out going back to a pixel again in the future!
