Used my 4a yesterday, fingerprint, terminal, done.

As Javier mentioned, it’s a problem with gestures post Android 10 and third party launchers. Every third party launcher has the same problem on every handset running Android 10 and above to varying degrees. If you switch to the old soft button navigation the problem should be rectified, it’s...

Zero performance issues on mine.

It's not a widget on pixel devices, it's built into the OS. You can't delete it unless you use a different launcher.

Here's our little buddy.

I'm currently using a Pixel 4a and an iPhone SE 20, one personal, one for work. My backup is an Oppo Reno 2z which I picked up for £120. I also have an iPhone 6s lying around somewhere.

My Samsung S8 decided to give up so needing something quickly I bought a G7 power for a bargain £140, thinking it'd do for a week until I picked up something long term. Well, a week later I've changed my mind. The G7 Power is snappy and the battery lasts me at least two days with a frankly...

I made the jump from the S6 edge to the Note 8. The difference is night and day. Enjoy your phone.
