It’s probably hyperbole to credit Google’s Pixel A devices for single-handedly keeping the broader line alive during some admittedly lean times. Let’s be honest, much of that goes to Google’s very deep pockets — when you’re one of the world’s largest companies, what’s a little sunk-cost fallacy between friends?
The budget devices have, however, been a lifesaver, buoying the line when the Pixel division was still desperately attempting to find its footing. It’s safe to say that — after several false starts — Google finally found success with the Pixel 6. It was the first time in the line’s history the company could credibly claim that it had released a flagship.
