Evidence summary
Recurring strengths and trade-offs
In early hands-on reviews, Mark Ellis Reviews' 19 August 2026 review says the 256 GB model has 12 GB of memory, and that the 512 GB and 1 TB models have 16 GB. In Depth Tech Reviews' 8 September 2026 review says its 256 GB unit has 12 GB of memory, and points to the 512 GB model with 16 GB if keeping apps open in memory matters to you.
What depends on needs and context
HowToMen's 10 September 2026 review, in the first weeks on sale, says basic use reaches about 4 to 5 hours of screen-on time. Everyday Legends' 25 September 2026 review says that after a full month, most days reach 7 to 8 hours without rationing the phone. One reviewer is on each side.
Decision checks
Check which SIM version you are buying. Google's support table lists dual eSIM for the US model and a nano-SIM plus eSIM outside the US. On 4 October 2026, JB Hi-Fi listed the 256 GB Fog at 2099 AUD, and Currys listed the 256 GB Canyon at 1279 GBP.
Plan on eSIM if you buy a US model. Google's spec table lists dual eSIM for the US model, and lists a SIM tool in the box only for models sold outside the US. Google notes that eSIM support depends on your carrier and country.
