My google Pixel 1 has been nothing but a lemon.

Mar 13, 2018 3:24AM PDT

First off, i know this phone is old now, BUT i wouldn't expect it to handle or operate like this.

First thing, i find my pixel running so slow all the time! Especially loading pages, yet i have such a great internet connection at home. It lags scrolling through webpages etc.

Secondly, it crashes and freezes. A LOT. Is this just my phone or is it just how these Pixel's are now that they are getting older? It is fully up to date and i have deleted any apps that could be dodgy causing my phone to operate incorrectly.

Thridly, my headphone jack doesn't work and neither does my microphone. I do have speaker audio still, but i can't get anything to record my voice at all. Assistant, voice messages on snapchat facebook etc, phone calls or on camera.

My question is, are any of these problems repairable or should i just save my pennys and buy the latest phone so it lasts me more than 3 months? This phone is out of warranty as i brought it off a lady who won it, it was brand new in the box sealed. Can anyone help me or give me advice on any of these issues!?

Thanks heaps to all who reply,

~Elias
