I made the dangerous choice to see how much credit I have in the Google store and now I’m thinking it’s time to upgrade my Pixel 4 even though I am still happy with it’s performance.
Maybe I’ll wait until the Pixel 7 is released and upgrade then. That makes more sense since it will likely be this fall.
