sabreW4K3,

Don’t think I’ll ever stop wishing that Lineage matched Google’s version numbers

sabreW4K3,

My Pixel can’t even merge calls or tell me that the person I’m ringing is on the phone, but they wanna add this shit?

sabreW4K3,

The corners seem too curved.

sabreW4K3,

I’m looking forward to the Monet implementation

sabreW4K3,

Samsung have for the large part, done really well with their phones in recent years. I’m glad people are getting more and more usage out of them.

sabreW4K3,

Mr Blott was suggesting that the review is ultimately just an advertisement. I disagree with it, but each to their own.

sabreW4K3,

Other than the battery life, the Pixels are great long term phone investments.

sabreW4K3,

What phone are you currently using? Do you find there’s anything you can’t do at such a price point?

sabreW4K3,

To be fair, I’ve only ever seen negative opinions about the Tensor chips and the majority of it stems from it being an Exynos derivative.

sabreW4K3,

What did you get last year?

sabreW4K3,

I think the finance model for phones kinda makes them such an easy purchase in a way in which you can’t do on PC.

sabreW4K3,

I thought the people still using 12s were mind-blowing.

sabreW4K3,

Yeah, but with a Roomba, it’s not tied to a utility. You’re never going to NEED it, whereas with a phone, you need it to live these days, for better or worse.

sabreW4K3,

That’s a good purchase

sabreW4K3,

The next couple years will be interesting. They can’t just throw more processor speed at us and call it a day, so will be intriguing to see how they overcome that.

sabreW4K3,

😂 I so shouldn’t be giving you that but you genuinely made me laugh, so I’m going to give you that. Take my upvote!

sabreW4K3,

I just read about them shutting down 2G here (the UK), it feels like the end of an era.

sabreW4K3,

That’s fair!

sabreW4K3,

Love my Pixel. Great purchase. Especially with the now extended software support.

sabreW4K3,

Just out of curiosity, if you could recommend a phone to a relative. Let’s say young enough to be on all the socials, but old enough to not need the newest flagship, what would you recommend? I’m guessing the 7 or 7a?

sabreW4K3,

Is it that good?

sabreW4K3,

Do the AI features feel like they’re more integrated than on Pixels?

sabreW4K3,

It’s all to get phones ready for Auracast as that’s going to be huge.

sabreW4K3,

Bluetooth broadcasting. One device will be able to stream to hundreds and thousands of devices.

sabreW4K3,

Huh? Why not? Being able to stream multiple languages in a single cinema showing or supporting those with hearing difficulties is amazing.

Even going to clubs and from the outside it looks like a bunch of weirdos dancing to themselves is amazing.

sabreW4K3,

From what I can gather, there’s a bunch of optimizations for battery that should bring massive benefits

sabreW4K3,

This is funny because accessing Google Assistant is clunky AF on my both my P6P and P8P. In fact the only way I know how to launch it in lieu of allowing Google to listen to everything I say, is to connect headphones and hold the button, WTF?

sabreW4K3,

Sadly Firefox is going the complete other way and not even introducing a smidgen of Material You in its redesign.

sabreW4K3,

Each to their own. I’m enjoying how my phone looks. It can be improved for sure, but it’s certainly not bad.

sabreW4K3,

While not quite what you’re wanting, this is a definite step in the right direction. https://lemmy.tf/pictrs/image/daafdba5-6567-48d8-b245-ae845085af12.jpeg

sabreW4K3,

I just tried to buy one and they’re sold out 😭

sabreW4K3,

This update has annoyed me. You used to be able to screenshot and if it was foreign, lens would offer to translate it from the screenshot pop-up, that’s no longer the case.

sabreW4K3,

Glad to have one of my favourite instances back when a vengeance.

sabreW4K3,

BTW @ijeff can we get the ability to edit our posts please? Way too often I’ll submit and then go back and edit to provide more information if the preview falls short, but lemdro.id doesn’t allow this.
