Depends on your angle. The Pixel is a good phone and the OS works well, but it is a Google device. A growing minority wants to avoid investing in US big corp, or in anything US related in general given the current political situation.

    If I had to change phones now, I'd get a second-hand/refurbished Pixel and wait until the motorola devices take on. Fairphone is nice but lacks in security. The high price is only because of the "fair" small-scale production, the specs are quite mid for the price. I say this as a fp owner, I'm happy but if I had to choose again I'd go about it differently.
