I've really grown tired of the term "Flagship" being used as a description for a cellphone. The term gets thrown around so much that its almost lost it's true meaning. flag·ship /ˈflaɡˌSHip/ The best or most important thing owned or produced by a particular organization. Now if you ask that same...

After 30 years of building, selling, and fixing computers/various other electronics I could never NOT do a clean install on a new phone. Shoot I just did a clean install of Android 12 on my Pixel 3XL. People always wonder why I never have problems with my electronics like they do ... Hmmmm

I'm lost on why you would have to go to any store to accomplish this. You would think it would be as easy as requesting a Sim card from T-mobile, and getting your account # and Pin# from Sprint. Then put the new Sim card in your phone > go to the T-mobile activation page > select what level of...

I guess the real question is what do you care? Spreading FUD for no apparent reason other than stirring up the local natives is beneficial to no one. Don't like Google and their phones, I would suggest moving on because your efforts to be a harbinger of Googles demise as a cellular vendor is...

Not a spam call by chance? I know my Pixel will kick known spam calls right to voicemail, just an idea ...

They stopped selling the Pixel 4xl before Black Friday, so that was never a factor anyways ...

I restart my phone and smartwatch every Sunday whether they need it or not. In fact I restart most of my household electronics on Sunday, and check for software/firmware updates and install them. I've practiced this since the early PC days when it was pretty much a necessity to do on a daily...

Yeah you beat me to it. Facebook Messenger is an easy sell to most older folks because it's simple, and they're familiar with the Facebook brand already.

Do you use a smartwatch maybe?

Clear as mud lol ... :confused:

Later I'll be "testing" a few phones myself ...

I'm probably wrong, but the OP's post seemed a little "trolly" to me with intentions of stirring up the "natives". From the looks of it, seems to have worked LOL ;)

I'm waiting to see what the black friday deals bring, and will most likely replace my Pixel 3XL 128GB with a 4XL 128GB just as the 3XL had replaced the 2XL prior. I find this method allows me to stay fairly current with a new flagship every year without having to take out a second mortgage ...

Seriously hang up the phone ...

I've never turned off a phone ever. No matter what phone I have smart, dumb, or otherwise gets put on it's charger right next to my smartwatch on my night stand every night. I reboot most of my devices at least once a week.
