🚨 WARNING for all Pixel owners in India. 🚨 My Pixel device was sent to official Google repair. After inspection, Google declared it “not repairable” and gave me only 2 choices: 1️⃣ Pay ₹22,620 for a replacement device 2️⃣ Get the phone returned unrepaired Now comes the shocking part. Before taking ₹22k+, Google India REFUSES to disclose: ❌ Which exact device they will send ❌ Whether it’s NEW or REFURBISHED ❌ Battery health details ❌ Water Resistance Rating ❌ Replacement quality standards ❌ Google cannot guarantee battery health percentage ❌ Google cannot guarantee IP/water resistance rating And in writing, Google Support confirmed: ⚠️ Once payment is made, there is NO refund and NO return — even if you are unhappy with the replacement device quality sent later. Most shocking part? Google could not even confirm whether they have any minimum measurable quality standards/policies for refurbished replacement devices: Battery health % Water resistance integrity like IP rating So basically: Pay first. Find out later what device you got. No refund. No choice. Without transparency, measurable quality benchmarks or refund rights. This is not premium after-sales support. This is “trust us after payment.” Attaching screenshots of Google Support’s own email response. Indian Pixel buyers deserve transparency before payment, not blind acceptance. @GoogleIndia @madebygoogle #GooglePixel #PixelIndia #Pixel6 #GoogleIndia #ConsumerRights #RightToRepair #MadeByGoogle #TechTwitter #Android #Smartphones

Information overload has become information exhaustion. Instantaneous access to the world's knowledge through the internet was supposed to educate and inform us but instead it has created a society-wide poverty of attention! #quote #insightful
