"Extra Dim" is a godsend

Title. As much as I have many issues with Android 12 (including but not limited to padding issues and wasted space, Material You colour limitations, weird "static" animations, etc) the new Extra Dim feature is my new favourite button when I'm in bed at night. I love being able to customise exactly how dim my screen should get, and it's made not waking my partner up when I come to bed in the early morning that much easier. Big up this feature...

Hello,

I just went to my local store to test the Pixel 6 (not the Pro).

Photo, videos and mic test are provided in the link at the top of this post. I will leave to you the in depth analysis pixel by pixel. I am more interested in the immediate feeling I have about the phone because it fits my daily usage.

Pixel 6 Pro Pre-Ordered and Arriving Today (10/23)

Not sure if this is a mistake or they're just shipping early. But I ordered a black Pixel 6 Pro, nothing else, it shipped out via FedEx on Friday (yesterday) and is out for delivery today. I did not preorder from Google but my wireless carrier due to Google giving me a December delivery date. I have not seen anything from Google about launching/selling/shipping before the 10/28 launch date.


Anyone else seeing this? Marked as Rumour currently as I haven't yet confirmed the contents of the deli...

The new Tab S8 Ultra leak seems to suggest that the tablet will ship without a headphone jack. Can we atleast admit to ourselves it was never about space?

Tons of cheaper phones released in India year around from Xiaomi and Samsung all have headphone jacks. A premium tablet sure as shit could've had a jack.

It was never about 'space' or 'courage'. It was about making money from disposable $180 earphones that cannot be serviced and will inevitably need replacing.

They (the smartphone industry) could've just as easily made excellent wireless earphones ALONGSIDE regular wired ones. They knew no one would buy them unless pushed.

I don't believe...

Android 12 - One step forward, ...

Got an update notification on my 4a. Contemplated a few days whether to update or not and decided to give it a shot.

To be completely honest, I am a bit underwhelmed. I expected to notice the changes a lot more than I have so far. In fact unfortunately I have noticed what they ruined (in my opinion) more than what they've fixed/added.

Here are some of the points that I like and dislike so far, if you haven't updated yet maybe it'll help you decide:
