    Everyone happy with Pixel so far?

    That last point is a big selling feature: cloud storage for photos and video. The integration with Google apps is seamless, so it just works.

    Everyone happy with Pixel so far?

    Got a couple people to try Allo. They all went back to WhatsApp or simply stay on iOS with iMessages. Duo works OK, but I ain't trying to get anyone switched to yet another app.

    Okay to use standard chargers?

    I wouldn't want to risk fouling up a new, expensive phone. In the past I reused cords, charger heads, etc. without a care. But recently I've had a couple instances with sparks and slow/no charging due to not using the cord and/or power head supplied.

    Interesting - any reports of burning Note 7s in the past week?

    There have been at least five reports of S7Es exploding. The most widely known case is a construction manager that suffered 2nd & 3rd degree burns in an explosion in May (he bought his phone in March?). He claimed Sammy didn't respond properly and is suing. There is at least one law firm...

    Everyone happy with Pixel so far?

    I wasn't really thinking about getting a Pixel. After reading new buyers reviews, I see many of my concerns are common. I won't list them as it appears I'm in the minority and I'm happy if others are happy with their choice.

    Samsung hit with lawsuit over note7 & s8 may halt

    Because some people are out money due to wasted time and energy. What about people that turned in another phone when getting the Note 7 before the first recall? They aren't getting their old phone back and may be are on the losing end thanks to the 2nd recall. Some users may have been forced to...

    Verizon Pixel XL - Where's the Bloatware!

    This should be the way of all phones. It's frustrating when bloatware gets in the way and you can't get rid of it.

    Photos of Pixel & XL

    Well I would have to feel and play around with the blue phone. A photo is one thing, actual use for a minimum of a year is another. I was regretting my red Nexus 5 until I got it in hand. So glad I took the plunge.

    Samsung hit with lawsuit over note7 & s8 may halt

    While I think the angle being argued in this class action try is ludicrous, I think there are tons of buyers that have legitimate reason to sue Samsung. The botched two recalls. The first was premature and probably has sufficient evidence that Samsung knew of possible problems before the fires...

    Samsung hit with lawsuit over note7 & s8 may halt

    I think this is a silly angle for the class action proposal. But with all class action suits, it's up to the judge. They're the ones that certify the suits as a class action and its boundaries. Too many just go with the flow and don't really think about justice. The certification should not...

    Photos of Pixel & XL

    It's a matter of choice: the color reminds you about old cheap phone, it reminds me of some furniture and art work from my HS days. And I like different colors. That's why my current phone is a red (more like blood orange) Nexus.
