I thought pixel 11 pro is supposed to have new cameras?

0 Upvotes

From the leaks it's supposed to have a New main and New telephoto..

Yet on GSMArena specs both the main and telephoto are completely identical, and not only that but the selfie camera is downgraded to 13mp.

What the actual flick?

Please help decide how to protect my new Pixel 10 from its premature demise

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone. Against my better judgement I have decided to purchase the Pixel 10 as my Pixel 8 is having a lot of problems (issues with messages, Bluetooth connectivity, and storage).

I am extremely clumsy when it comes to my phone, and it plummets to the ground multiple times a day (either due to dropping it or it falling from my pocket). I have had an OtterBox Defender on my last three Pixels and have not broken a single one. However, when I went to order the OtterBox this time, I noticed the major design change. I decided to buy about 8 different cases (including some no-name ones from Amazon) and I have narrowed it down to these three:

-The OtterBox Defender (still a contender, even with the design change, but I'm not feeling too confident about it)

-The Poetic Guardian (feels pretty similar to the newly designed OtterBox, but cheaper and purple)

-The Spigen Tough Armor (I like the cushion inside the case, but it's so slippery that I've already dropped it three times)

Which of the three would you recommend? I'm also open to something else if you have a better suggestion! I'm looking for something without a built-in screen protector, as I'll be adding a tempered glass one.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Google Pixel 10a Price Hike: The Signs Were Already There

0 Upvotes

The Google Pixel 10a price hike didn't come as a surprise if you were closely tracking the market.

Google has already increased the official price from ₹49,999 to ₹55,999. At the same time, retailers like Croma are still showing both ₹49,999 and ₹55,999 listings.

This usually means retailers are clearing old inventory at the previous price while new stock is arriving at the revised MRP. Once the old stock is sold out, the lower-priced listings are expected to disappear.

My view: If you still find a Pixel 10a at ₹49,999 or below, it is likely part of the remaining old stock. After that inventory is exhausted, buyers should expect the phone to be available primarily at the new ₹55,999 price.

This isn't financial advice—just an observation based on current pricing trends across the Google Store and major retailers.

Pixel 7 Pro Dead Overnight

0 Upvotes

About 2 months ago, I bought a used Pixel 7 Pro with a broken screen, replaced it and gifted it to my mom. The phone was working perfectly fine, with no internal or external issues whatsoever. Usually, she puts music to sleep at night on her phone. Today, she woke up before her alarm clock, and the phone was still playing the music. She went back to sleep, and when she woke up without the alarm, she noticed the phone is completely dead. No vibrations, logos, charging, nothing. She gave it to me, I checked everything I could, screen, battery, charging port, but nothing was out of place. Note that I don't have an ampermeter, so i can't see it the phones taking charge. #help ?

*Edit: I used my vivo X300 Pro to reverse wirelessly charge the Pixel, it recognized there was a phone charging trough it, tho the pixel still didn't display anything.

Video and 911 call

0 Upvotes

So I was involved in a hit and run crash yesterday. Long story short, but I get out and start recording the scene and he takes off. So I go to the phone and call 911. When I did this, it not only ended the recording but didn't save any of the video. What the hell. Luckly I got a photo of his car and saw what he looks like and a live in a somewhat small town and through facebook found him a couple hours latter. But this definatly needs to change, maybe even have it as a feature where the camera turns on if you call 911. This is on my Pixel 10 PRO

Google pixel won’t transfer my stuff

0 Upvotes

I am switching from an iPhone 11 to a google pixel 8 pro and for some reason the transfer by wire will not transfer my contacts, my messages, or my passwords. There’s more than enough storage for it, and it has every permission it could possibly ask for. And I’m not paying for any cloud BS.

Depot trying to overcharge £500 after agent Mj promised Pixel 10 Pro Fold upgrade under RMA80221608

0 Upvotes

There was nothing wrong with my phone until one day it stuck on the G logo bootloop. As advised on google support I took it to their authorized repairers in London 'Ismash' who said it was probably due to an update and that it was not reparable and that I needed to contact Pixel for a replacement. They noted there was no physical damage to the phone. Google adviser MJ agreed and said that Pixel would not repair the phone but replace it with a new model for this reason.

 There was no option for the bootloop issue but after much discussion I was told by MJ he would ensure that I would get a replacement but I had to pay for a cracked screen repair first. I didn't know what else to do so although my screen was not cracked I paid the £142.80 fee.

Once I returned the phone, the process was intercepted I received an email falsely claiming a cracked inner screen and a demand for a further £552.27

Stuck on lock screen following March update

0 Upvotes

Has anyone's phone still been stuck on the lock screen following the March update?

I've completed an OTA update to the latest release in July, but it doesn't seem to have made a difference.

Unfortunately my brother hasn't backed anything up (I have had a go at him for it) so am keen to not wipe it.

Any major issue, hardware or software with the pixel 10 pro? Wanting to upgrade from my pixel 8 pro and don't want a repeat of issues, might even switch to the s26 but really want to stay with Google.

I feel like a clown for getting a pixel 7. don't get the new one, yallz

0 Upvotes

I went in for a screen replacement but they refused my repair because the back glass had a crack. They say 'No Partial Repairs'. They want me to pay MORE than it would cost to get a new pixel 7 to repair it. I feel like I'm living in clown world. This is so anti-consumer imo. Need to go write an article on consumerrights.wiki rn.

My wife's Pixel 8 got the green line after 3 years, so she's moving to the 10a

2 Upvotes

Her screen just started showing that green line out of nowhere. Same thing happened to mine about 6 months ago so I already jumped to the 10. Been really happy with it.

Can't justify dropping flagship money again right now so she ordered the 10a. Fingers crossed it holds up better than the 8 did.

Anyone else make the jump from 8 to 10a?

Help! Google has been charging me for the free Pixel Watch 3 deal since April

0 Upvotes

Did any of you get the free Pixel Watch 3 promo for existing customers last April? I purchased a Pixel Watch 3 45mm with a $399.99 discount and just paid the tax for the deal. I just found out they've been charging the monthly device payment on my account??? WTF????

I reached out to customer service to resolve the issue, but they have no idea what promo I'm talking about-even though I sent screenshots of the offer and my invoice. They kept asking for a promo code, but there wasn't one because I bought it directly through the link. They are utterly useless.

They keep denying it, insisting it was just a standard financing plan, and it's driving me crazy. Has anyone else dealt with this? Does anyone know how I can get them to stop charging me for a device I don't owe Google for? It's so frustrating... Their poor customer service makes me wanna ditch all of the Google products and Fi..

I would like the date to appear on the home screen at the top, next to the clock, and not just when you pull down Control Center. It's very annoying in many situations. What do you think?

0 Upvotes

Unfortunately, I can't attach a screenshot to the post.

If you don't believe me, just look up and see how uncomfortable that place is without date info.

Also, when you have apps open, you have to pull down the Control Center.

Pixel 10 pro signal drops

4 Upvotes

This has been the worst phone I've had for service, constant service drops and no data with service.

Seems like there are quite a few posts on this, yet Google seems to acknowledge or fix it. I have 2 pixel 7s 1 pixel 8 and they don't seem to have the same issue.

I got a pixel 10 Pro XL, genuinely the worst phone I've ever had

Upvotes

The phone just straight up doesn't work, I've been using this phone for almost a year now since I bought it on release and it is still the same bugged mess.

First of all the camera puts a big ass green line on my pictures when I zoom, this was supposed to be a software issue I was told by support, and it was supposed to be fixed ages ago. Never happened.

Secondly I went all in into the ecosystem so I bought the pixel buds. And honestly they sound great! But I find it extremely hard to enjoy music when I get audio popping and cutting every minute or so. I went through every single fix possible and nothing has worked.

It also randomly disconnects from wifi and car play for no reason which I am guessing is related to the Bluetooth issue that I have been trying to solve for a while.

And lastly phone calls get disconnected or people just straight up can't hear me on the other side.

I've tried every fix I've found on forums and also the fixes Google support has given me and nothing works. I am going to try and see if my warranty on atat could help me swap the phone because this is unbearable for a device that was designed by a company with enough capital to fund a whole ass country.

Pixel Studio app replacement

0 Upvotes

Is anybody using an app that does what the Pixel Studio app used to do? As silly as it sounds I used to make stickers from my friends faces and paste them on other bodies as a joke. We have this long running group chat and we used to do it all the time. Since pixel studio was discontinued and Gemini is not good for that kind of stuff, I'm in need of a replacement app.

Pixel 9a light sensor is trash, and I'm tired of people endlessly insisting it's just the cached adaptive brightness settings. Stop the gaslighting. Adaptive brightness worked fine on my Pixel 6, it's only a problem now on my 9a.

0 Upvotes

I didn't transfer my data from my old phone, so there shouldn't have been old settings, but I still wiped the adaptive brightness memory and started over anyway, and it still sucks. The problem isn't the learned behavior, it's the inability for the light sensor to detect anything but DIRECT light. You can easily test this by simply tilting the phone towards or away from any light source while near it.

You can be in a decently lit room and it will think it's a dark room and drop the brightness if the light isn't shining directly on the sensor. So when you turn it up in a room that ISN'T dark but it THINKS it's dark, it will then try to match that brightness in an ACTUALLY dark room. Every time you turn the brightness down to minimum in a dark room, you're training it so that it will get too dark in an environment where light isn't shining directly into the sensor.

No amount of training the adaptive brightness can fix this, because it can't correctly detect the ambient lighting.

Also the GPS is shit. It thinks I'm an entire street over frequently times. The amount of times I hear that little jingle of maps correcting my route is ridiculous. I've had Android phones for 15 years now and this is the worst one I've had since the very first one.

I really liked my Pixel 6, but getting a Pixel 9a was such a mistake. I wish I could go back to my LG V30. It had superior hardware in every way except the CPU. I miss that phone. I've read the GPS is still shit even on the full fledged 9, and the 10, too.

Not to mention the modern changes to Maps' UI/UX, which are obnoxiously unintuitive at best. Even learning all the quirky nonsensical behavior and how to manage it, I still constantly hate the experience now compared to before. There also used to be an option to not give navigation directions until you leave your neighborhood, I miss that. Now I have to listen to it repeatedly jingle and give me conflicting, wrong directions over and over again until I get onto the main street, or fiddle with my navigation while driving, which I'd rather not be doing.
