    Poll: WiFi Calling -- Do you use it ?

    I do sometimes but the delay can make conversations difficult. I typically get a 1-2 second delay between when the person speaks and the other hears it, while on wifi.

    Is anyone shocked how popular the pixel has become?

    Not surprised. I think it shows that there are many people that are sick of the constant phone upgrade cycle. Finally having an Android option that will receive timely security and OS updates for a few years is what they've (I've) been looking for. IPhone's do it but nothing on the Android side...

    Pixel 2/2 XL - December Update (OTA) 12/5

    Re: Pixel 2/2 XL - December Update 12/5 Just rebooted the phone, for a non-update related reason. After it restarted, it prompted that the 8.1 update was available to me. Updating now. Pixel 2 XL on Verizon.

    Honeymoon Period

    Honeymoon is just starting for me. Pulled the trigger this weekend with Verizon doing the $300 off with no strings, other than 2 year commitment. I'm coming off my OG Droid Turbo, which I've used for 3 years. I was looking for a phone that will last me another 3 years. That's the main driver for...

    Verizon Model

    This is my main concern and I'm hoping we'll get more details on it. I know they said Google will do the updates. But I want to know that it will work like the iPhone on Verizon, where you can get the update from Apple the day they release it. I've been burned too many times by Verizon with they...

    [Closed] Win a Nexus 5X from Android Central!

    I want a nexus 5x because it will get all the updates in a form factor I like. With carriers doing away with contract subsidies I don't see much reason to go with anything other than a nexus. Winning one now would help me solidify that thought pattern before my next phone is ready for upgrade.

    Turbo Charging vs. Wireless Qi Charging

    Got my case today. It is just the silicone cover that Verizon sells. it is pretty thin. But my Qi charging doesn't work with the case on. Maybe a better charger would. I just bought the cheap "Nexcon® Qi Enabled Wireless Charger Inductive Charging Pad Station for All Qi Standard Compatible...

    Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Total charge time from empty to full

    Re: Total charge time from empty to full Same as everyone else. About 2 hours from single digits to 100% with Turbo charger. Qi takes longer but I have that on my nightstand. Always topped off by morning.

    Voice call volume. Any fix?

    Are the people complaining of low earpiece volume (I am one of them) all left handed?

    Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Is anyone concerned about being orphaned?

    Re: Is anyone concerned about being orphaned? After being burned with the original Droid, this was definitely a concern for me. With the original Driod, it was only a few months in when VZW did an update that locked the bootloader. After that, they never did another update to the phone...

    Turbo Charging vs. Wireless Qi Charging

    Just got my qi charger. Got a Nexcon® Qi Enabled Wireless Charger Inductive Charging Pad Station from Amazon for $14. Did a quick test. Phone charged from 75% to 94% in 1 hour. That's about what I was expecting. I'm planning to use the qi charging at night, so I can just put the phone on it when...

    Droid Turbo: Battery Life

    I'm about 26 hours in from a full charge and down to 8%. That's with some pretty heavy use. I looked at what was using the battery and #4 on the list was cloud. I assume that's Verizon's cloud, which I don't use. I went into apps and disabled it.

    Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo In call earpiece volume issues

    I too find the earpiece volume quite low. Haven't found anything that improves it yet.
