    Anyone broke theirs yet?

    Google Assistant Haz Jokes!

    It really is nice seeing Google catching up on Apple in making its assistant more 'human-like'. Even if in reality these little conversations you have with your phone doesnt have any much significance, it surely shows that it has surpassed Apple's Siri in almost every way, with 'being...

    No Gallery....

    You could open the side menu and find 'device folders' there as mentioned by Steven, or you could go to the rightmost tab (album) by tapping on it on the bottom bar, and by clicking into the second box (the one beside 'shared'). That will show you all the folders on your phone that contain...

    Sound quality of videos at concerts/loud environments?

    Being a N5 owner and someone who goes to concerts/shows pretty often, I find the bass-heavy sound systems usually make the sound in video recordings super distorted, and basically just crap. As a guy who actually cares quite a lot about recording at concerts (I know, enjoy the moment, but there...

    Pixel: Really Blue - Anyone Buying?

    If they released a maroon version, I wouldn't hesitate to get it. Tbh I'm not really a fan of the Really Blue. Just looks a little too striking and.. well a little 'low-end looking' imo

    Notification lights

    Yes, it's listed on the official page of Pixel. Here's a picture of it in action from a Reddit thread

    IP53 rating a bit dissapointing

    Agreed, the closest my phone is ever gonna get to water is probably rainwater, and the IP rating for Pixel covers that so.. it's totally understandable if people use their phones differently and some would want it to be able to be submerged, but it's just not something I'll actually care.

    Do u think the Google pixel will be a success?

    Tbh I think it will be quite a success. Maybe for us who've been following tech for quite a while, it'll take some time before we finally get over the fact that Google did indeed steer away from the beloved Nexus line - with their good specs to price ratio, into a whole new dimension of premium...

    What is Google's goal here?

    As several others in this thread have mentioned, I too think that Google is trying to jump on the 'premium phones' bandwagon. We as people enthusiastic about tech, of course see the good in Nexus - good specs, fast updates directly from Google, and all of that for a cheap price. But in my...

    Verizon's TV commercials claim Pixel only available on Verizon. Isn't that false advertising?

    It is to an extent. Well, anyway Verizon is the ONLY carrier that carries Pixel. Mix it up with a little marketing and thats how they came up with the claim. I do agree its a litte bit of false advertising, but thats just how marketing works I guess

    Over 100 Photos taken with the Pixel

    They look really good imo. Some people are saying its not accurate as some of the photos have been post-processed, do keep in mind that most of the good pictures that you see are already processed in some way. It can only bring out the best of whatever you already have

    Google pixels best noticable feature???

    For me its the camera. The way they advertised it so heavily had me put alot of hope into the experience it will be able to deliver. Esp when the nexus line wasnt really known for its camera (except the 5x and 6p's which were decent, but still not the top of its generation)

    Anyone love the black version of the two phone like me?

    Its really all subjective on this one - some people like the all black look, some like a little cleaner look with the white, some think blue is a cool take (which I personally dont prefer). I myself think the black looks really really good

    (Poll) If you could change ONLY 1 thing about the Pixel, what is it?

    Definitely the speakers - cmon, stereo speakers would make the phone almost perfect

    Pixel or Pixel XL?

    Personally I've always been secretly hoping for the return of smaller-sized phones.. I guess the choice is clear now
