A few years ago, Nothing used to make the smartphones with design that spoke to me, and made them my top consideration. But, with the design changes they made the last couple of years, using Google Pixel 7a, and the Pixel phones being officially available by Google in Mexico on 2025, the Pixel line has become my personal smartphone line.
Personally, I prefer Android over iOS on my smartphone. And while Nothing OS is quite a good implementation of Android, the smartphones from the Nothing just don't talk to me. I still can recommend them wholeheartedly if you like them, but personally I prefer the Pixel phones, the combination of their hardware and vanilla Android is just better suited for what want and need on a smartphone.
Other thing that makes Pixel a better option for me, is that it offers seven years of Android updates, while Nothing offers five years. The only other Android smartphone OEM the offers something similar I know, is Samsung which I prefer not to get smartphones from.
To be honest, I had an eye on Pixel phones since they hit the market. The only reason I didn't consider them was the difficultly of getting them on Mexico for some time. Then, five years ago I saw that I could get them unofficially, and a couple of years ago I made the jump to a Pixel 7a, which was a great choice.
Now that Google has made the Pixel phones officially available in Mexico, it has made it hard for me to move to another OEM unless Google makes a choice which a disagree with.
All things considered, I Pixel phones might just become my go to smartphone for years to come. Hardware and software works quite nicely, and while the Tensor SoC might not be a powerhouse it ticks all the boxes for my needs.
At the end of the day this is why I prefer the Android ecosystem, there is an Android smartphone that fits your need closely.
