Only realized how Terrible Google assistant was when I started to use it with Android Auto.

2nded so hard. By far the best music app I’ve ever used. So small, and efficient too

Pretty exciting! Not going so great for their current phones.

Why is this down voted lol they’re completely right.

Note for Samsung users, change your keyboard back to Samsung keyboard for a second and check the clipboard. That’s right! It saves everything you’ve copied, regardless of if it was the active keyboard.

What were the others??

Is it a headphone jack? What about an SD card reader. An unlockable bootloader?

Tbh I’d still rather use a Samsung s24 with snapdragon than something like a pixel with a shitynos processor

I thought WiFi and Bluetooth location service scanning was already supposed to fix this?

They (kinda) work on Samsung now if you turn off the animations. Regardless, the custom launcher on Android is dead.

Absolutely. That and the recent vpn blocking changes has made using reddit absolutely unbearable.

I want an unlockable bootloader :((

What is an intent based ui

Why?

For a total of 3 seconds before the chip lights on fire lol

Looks good, doubt it’ll be a good deal though

Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 is an incredible processor however, so we’ll see

So when are they unlocking the bootloader?

Google already blocks apps they don’t like I can’t see this going well.

I am going to get this phone due to my carriers deals but, S23 battery has gotten significantly worse over the course of a year. Software updates have absolutely killed it, it’s about 1pm and I’m halfway through my battery, which isn’t as good as I used to get.

For those who want a good chip the 8 Gen 2 is the best I have ever used.

8 GEN 3 PHONE BEING 650$? does it still have all the preloaded ads and stuff? What about unlocking the bootloader? I would be really excited to know, this phone looks incredible.

Did they ever bootloader unlock the Zenphone 10?

I’ve had a ton of bugs on iPhone. But I completely agree with you. especially for the average consumer, iPhone will be just the easy choice.

Also Pixel 6 is just god awful with bugs. At this point I don’t think Google can fix all of them, so many just feel related to the chip. I’d assume it’s better on their newer phones but you shouldn’t have to buy a newer phone to get a bug fixed.

I have been diehard android but this is really testing me. I want to use the best phone, and Apple had already been making the hardware. (Though, snapdragon 8 gen 2 has really redeemed itself, absolutely incredible, efficient and great chip. One of the reasons I just can’t see myself using a Pixel again)
