P6P here had it since day one. My battery is not in the best shape, but not terrible either.

I just charge when it’s needed and adaptive charging has done a pretty good job of keeping the battery healthy.

Overall though at the end of the day I’m not sure there’s too much we as the user have control over.

Case but no screen protector master race.

Provocative removed

Amazing in 2023 people still referencing that 30 year old battery University article.

And liquid screen protector with a physical screen protector? C’mon my guy it’s just a phone.

Well that’s good, right guys?

It is interesting that the price has already dropped on the P8 and is expected to continue to drop thru black Friday.

This is precisely why I never buy new anymore, having been burned by two previous Pixel releases in the past.

This chip situation doesn’t bode well for my continued Pixel use however.

Software is important but it isn’t everything, and like the article said raw horsepower does matter. For me. The most important things are battery, life display brightness, and cellular connectivity - something my pixel 6 Pro objectively fails at on all three fronts.

Combine that with all of the data theft that Google software utilizes, and I think I’m pretty much done.

I love mine. Have had them since launch, and previously had the Airpods pro.

There are things I love about the pixel buds and things I hate. The noise cancelling is phenomenal when you get the seal right in your ear, which is rare.

One of my ears just doesn’t jive with the pixel buds. I’ve tried different sizes, cleaning them routinely, and even looking at third party tips.

The sound is excellent and I love the assistant functions and gesture features that are built in that the airpods don’t have. At the same time the tap / hold function to enable or disable ANC is annoying is shit for when all you’re trying to do is adjust the earbud. In my case that’s often.

Overall I would pick them up for $130. The battery life alone makes them probably worth that.

Retardation.

Well you got 15 words or so in before mentioning Linux.

Oh boo hoo, it likely wouldn’t have worked even if not disabled and the author DID actually get into an accident.

Out here talking like life and death because he got a popup from Google on a trip. 🙄

Need better ear tips and or design. For the life of me I cannot get them to stay in my ears.

Fun fact: Google has to pay royalties to Windsor Castle since they had a Keep product first.

Only thing I’ve been paying for since 2012 has been a VPN. Problem solved.

You’re not wrong those are all required by law except the mental health checks, but even then you are prohibited if you’ve had an involuntary stay in a mental institution.

But those people aren’t interested in facts, only biased groupthink just look at how they show their thoughts with their downvotes because they have nothing intelligent to say.

Funny, both you lose the intended scope of the second anyways. It has nothing to do with crime.

Because people have a different opinion than you, you feel “bad” for me? Well I don’t feel a bit bad for you.

Yeah these people think getting screamed at and not being able to use earbuds for fear of some maniac sitting behind you is some sort of virtuous affair that should be experienced by all.

It’s not Europe, so fuck off with that shit.

Like get robbed, stabbed, harassed, inconvenienced, annoyed and assaulted?

Tradeoffs indeed.
