Table size[edit]

The table is getting big! There has to be a way to display this info without it overflowing. I'll take a look at other comparison articles for ideas. – The Grid (talk) 12:23, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Here's some thoughts:

I should have already fixed the overflow bug with this edit. InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:32, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Is it possible to freeze the top row and left column? 24.90.236.26 (talk) 05:24, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Afraid not. InfiniteNexus (talk) 05:26, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

InfiniteNexus, I know this might be some work, but maybe we should split the table by release/generation? I think showing a comparison of 7 years of phones seems a bit much on the same table. I can think of logical "gaps" (which I don't know if they can be sourced) but this seems at least logical by the teams working on the phone:

  • Pixel 1, 2, 3, 3a — Pixel 4 could fit here as Mario Queiroz and Marc Levoy leave Google in May 2020, we start to see the Pixel line changing
  • Pixel 4, 4a, 4a 5G, 5, 5a — 4a, 4a 5G, and 5 were developed at the same time but of course, COVID-19 put things on hold
  • Pixel 6, 6a, 7 — this one I have to look into more, focus is definitely on their SoC while keeping a similar chassis

Yeah, I actually like that idea, this table does seem to be getting rather unwieldy. I think the easiest way to break them up is by their back designs, so Pixel 1 + 2 + 3 + 3a go together (two-tone with fingerprint scanner), then Pixel 4 + 4a + 5 + 5a (top left camera square), and finally Pixel 6 + 6a + 7 (Daft Punk camera bar). So basically like what you were suggesting. InfiniteNexus (talk) 21:36, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Pixel 5[edit]

In table there is Pixel 5a 5G but but Pixel 5 is missing https://www.gsmarena.com/google_pixel_5-10386.php --Mrilluminates (talk) 02:14, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That's not true, both phones are on there. Please check again. Also, "Pixel 5a 5G" is not the correct name of the device, regardless of how it is sometimes marketed as. InfiniteNexus (talk) 02:48, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Change of device images[edit]

Hello everybody! Keep coming back to this page as an Pixel enthusiast and like to add my input, but am a bit rusty on Wikipedia contributions so here we go... This is just a check so I don’t break anything or if I am missing something here. I have done some work in Inkscape on the schematic images of the Pixel models and like to add missing ones and improve the visual representation with the intention to give a better understanding of size, shapes and how they differ. Some of the present images are a bit different in style and are sometimes a tiny bit presented in the incorrect size compared to the others, so I would suggest to replace some of them to have all a similar look. Here is a suggestion of all of the SVGs I tampered with, to illustrate how it could be shown side by side, all aligned bottom :

I think its all right to keep the different gray tones between the models to give a graphical feel between the contributes graphics to keep respect to earlier graphical work efforts. What do you think? Hope this is OK for all, if not please correct me. Thanks. / JorgenQ (talk) 20:55, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They look fine to me, but I'm no expert in graphic design. Perhaps you can discuss with @Mliu92, who created most of the existing images. InfiniteNexus (talk) 18:06, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@InfiniteNexus Looks good to me, I appreciate the effort involved in making them all the same scale. For the ones I drew I tried to keep the same scale, but with a year in between each, I probably fumbled the scale at some point. Cheers, Mliu92 (talk) 18:14, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Alright done and thank you so much, JorgenQ (talk) 08:46, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
