    First time Fold "Crease" Impressions?

    Sure it's there. No one is denying that. What is being implied is, on the third day, your eyes see past it... It's a non issue... For most people. This is something you can't get a handle on from an hour at best buy.

    First time Fold "Crease" Impressions?

    I agree. My other phone is a surface duo. You always have to open it. As it's a v1 product, there are allowances. That said, after getting the fold3, I find myself using the larger screen less. Oh, I do the multitasking, yes, but I don't automatically start with the larger screen.. I find...

    I'm happy with my 4 xl

    I've jumped in here a few times, but I will once again. The forums should implement a " Certified Owner" tag, so reviews from NON users or owners can be separated. I have no issue in hearing anyone's opinion, but it should be limted to look and what you think the specs means. And, these...

    1st 48 Hours with my 128GB 4XL

    Ok, I'm now at 7 days with the Pixel 4xl. I took some time away from the Note 10+ because, well, I'm a dork. The Note 10+ is a great phone. I've read a lot of posts here and other places. I've read reviews from a lot of people...here and other places. And there are a few things I've gleamed...

    1st 48 Hours with my 128GB 4XL

    Yeah...I live in Seattle. I use it all the time, and it's a novelty here.. Usually draws a crowd when I tap the phone. My wife and kids refuse to use it. Won't put their cards on a phone. I do the explanation... But still. My wife had an I phone x... Even refused face unlock until about a month...

    1st 48 Hours with my 128GB 4XL

    Ok...5 days now.. Things that stands out. I come from a note10+ Have gotten used to the pixel gestures and now move around quite nicely Ambient lighting is something I still struggle with. I prefer a slightly brighter display, do in the evenings I still have to set the display brightness up...

    It's Going Back

    Agreed...which is true for every phone ever released. Your particualar experience, understanding, or expectation, does not necessarily make any phone a failure. Hate to call the P4 a failure because it doesn't come in blue.

    It's Going Back

    For the first 30 minutes after setup...I felt the same way....WTF!!! Nothing was working...everything was getting cutoff..I was ready to drop it in the trash. I even walked away. I didn't need this. I have a perfectly good Note 10+ sitting right here. So I went out and got a beer...beer...

    Who has their 4XL

    OK...not gonna compare specs here....just comparative feelings between my NOTE 10+ and the P4xl Weight roughly similar Pretty...Note 10+ Cool extras...like AR icons, etc ....Note 10+ Display...Note 10+. The Note10+ screens jumps at you. Like its entirely enhanced. By compare..the P4xl looks...

    *Obligatory 'I ordered my Pixel 4' thread!

    Dude...I bought an s10+....then opted for the Note 10+. I had a case on that s10..took it off while in the house. Was sitting on my desk. I made arrangements to swap the phone with someone. As soon as I did....I bumped the desk, the s10 went flying...and ended up cracking the front. No...

    MKBHD Review is Out. Google can NOT be happy lol

    I generally agree with your statement. But ...you know, on instgram, they have the pixel based takes that do dozens of pics a day...and that wide angle sure takes some good pics....if those are the pics you want to take. There is clearly a good argument here

    *Obligatory 'I ordered my Pixel 4' thread!

    I just got my case for the P4xl. Size wise comparison...I have the Note 10+ and the s10+. The s10+ with case fits inside the P4xl case. the p4xl case is slightly smaller than the Note10+. But appears thicker.... Just trying to get a visual before tommorrows delivery

    64 or 128

    I went with the 128 simply because I could. But normally, I do get the smallest...as long as its at least 64 gb. I am also heavily invested in the cloud connections with OneDrive, Google Drive and iCloud. so, there is never a hurt for storage space. Where I get concerned is the size of apps...

    It's like Google is trying to fail

    Only if it's important to me. Our must haves are different, that's ok. I'm just saying.. Lots of people talk about different things. If FPS is important to you..yay. I would think the bar majority of pixel users don't take video. They take pics. They take that pic and share it. So good cams...
