My Pixel 6 Pro commited suicide this week

Woke up on Monday and my Pixel 6 Pro wasnt quite fitting in the case while i was checking news while having coffee on the morning. Pushed it in and it didnt seem to fit right. Took the case off to find it had turned itself into a spicy pillow and was splitting along the side. Was 1 month inside warranty, messaged support who told me it was wear and tear initially. I made it quite clear i wasnt accepting that and there wasnt even any way that internal adhesive failing would be wear and tear, never mind battery expansion. They agreed to replace it with a refurb as a goodwill gesture, how very nice of them. I upgraded the same day to a S23 Ultra and have sold the refurb to a reseller.
I got a Pixel 6 as a work phone thinking that the vanilla Android experience on the Android developers own device would be great.
Feel like my OnePlus One was a better device.
The Pixel phones haven't been 'vanilla Android' for a while now. The Pixel launcher is just a way for Google for more easily serve ads and paid 'news' stories to you. The only thing I really like about my Pixel 6 Pro is the camera, otherwise it is an over-priced piece of hardware.
