    Pixel Stand deal, Did anyone else buy one for their Pixel 5?

    Eric the Duke is right. Just put them on the stand upside down . They charge better than the pixel phone.

    Pixel Stand deal, Did anyone else buy one for their Pixel 5?

    I also have two stands. One on my nightstand and one on my desk. I use them to charge my pixel 5 and pixel buds all the time. I used to charge my pixel 3. They were originally supposed to say charging rapidly when you placed a pixel on them. It never did with my pixel 3. I even contacted support...

    My Pixel Bud issues with Google support

    Well. I was one of the first to get these. I went through all of the updates. But my battery issues have been bad since day one. I hear you are supposed to get 5 hours of usage on a full charge. I never got more than 2. I never had the hissing or dropouts until recently. Now i get one bud...

    Pixel 5 durability test by Jerry Rig Everything

    From what I saw, the coating is rather thick. Kinda takes the wind out of the sails of those that are complaining they can see aluminum where the coating is wearing off.

    How's your Camera been (Pixel 5).

    Daylight shots are not the problem. Low light shots are. Where my pixel 3 gave amazing images, I now get grainy images.

    I never saw the battery share in quick settings. I only found it in the battery settings. Im glad it is there.

    How's your Camera been (Pixel 5).

    I have to agree with you here. The noise is horrible in some images. Hopefully they will update the software soon.

    How's your Camera been (Pixel 5).

    I got the Sage. I have pixel buds and I have pixel stands for charging. I charge the buds on the stand. Charging them on the phone requires you to go into system setting and turning it on. It doesn't stay on. It does stay on when the phone is plugged in, but I dont charge my phone that way. I...

    How's your Camera been (Pixel 5).

    I came from the pixel 3. I like the one handed use with the fingerprint reader on the back. It feels a little better with a case just like the pixel 3 did. As for the battery, I am very impressed. Getting 6 hours of screen on time and still have 40% left at night. i stream the radio all morning...

    5G indicator always??

    Mine does the same thing. It says 5G but the speeds are not there. I looked in my usage in the My Verizon app and it says i have not used any 5G data. The whole thing is misleading.

    How's your Camera been (Pixel 5).

    I think my Pixel 3 takes better photos. I miss the HDR and HDR+ toggle. I notice more grain in the low light images. If you ask the the camera is rather crappy. I do like the wide angle images, that was a nice touch but the image quality is poor.

    why no 5G indicator (Verizon)?

    My phone says 5G any time I am out of the house. My speeds say my WiFi is faster. When I look in my Verizon account is says how my LTE data i have used and how much 5G data. I have used no 5G data and everything is LTE I haven't seen anything other than 5G in the status bar since I got the...

    HTC acts like it has iceview when it does not

    On my Ice View case there is a liitle round disk in the lower left hand corner with the HTC logo on it. I think that triggers the Ice View app. When that disk fell off, I no longer had the ice view effect activate. I think there was a feature where double tapping or swiping activated the camera...

    Rapid Charging

    I have the Pixel stand. There is no rapid charge using it. If I want rapid charge, I unplug the stand and plug it into the phone. I spent about two hours with support chat. I think they removed rapid charge with the last update
