Kindof a terrible article TBH. "midrange flagship" is a stupid phrase. It even says the phone is good for a good price. But the author is probably a europoor who wants to dunk on USA as much as possible or else an apple fanboi or both, so

If by market, you mean the people buying them. IE, This product highlights the fact that there are still retarded people using google.

To be clear, the Google Pixel 6a is a good phone. I like it a lot

Author is a tardjar

Get used to the downgrades for the "new" products -- crappier cameras, "full HD" (1080) PC monitors, slower generation upgrades to GPU's etc.. With most of the parts and resources needed for these products being corralled in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East -- effective captured states of China -- the iRon Curtain falling to separate the East and West will hurt tech consumers most.

It's not that bad. I can still buy unlocked phones online and use them with the carrier.
