Ordered just after the launch livestream, yeah it's gimmicky but it's also something different in the current climate of very samey handsets. The screen and hinge are a slight concern but i'm hoping this second iteration will be more robust than the Fold. My main worry is performance, i had the...

Thanks, if that's the case why does the unlevel picture tie in with an issue when playing games where the phone is level but a game such as RealRacing thinks it's tilted left (and thus steers left). The software is taking a reading from a sensor on the phone to check whether it's level or not...

Yes correct, i'm just using the gridlines as an illustration to show that when the phone is level the camera app has the picture at an angle. Hence the phone and the software (such as the camera app) believes it is level when it is not and i have to hold the Pixel3 at an angle (3-4 degrees) to...

Thanks, both of mine are 8A so based on that it's Oct18, the next two characters i assume are the manufacturing facility which is interesting as the two devices i have differ (DX and 2X) which means the issue i have isn't a specific manufacturing batch.

Could people kindly do a simple test for me on their Pixel3 and ideally if they have another handset of any type. Can you turn on the grid within the camera app, take a picture of a level object (such as a PC monitor) with the handset placed on a level surface and tell me do the gridlines look...

I have a couple of Pixel3 clearly white 64gb handsets, both have the same issue with poorly calibrated orientation sensors and i want to know if they are from the same 'batch' or it's a wider issue. They are from the same vendor but delivered 40days apart. Does anyone know how to work this out...

Totally agree with this, i use Nine for my corporate email and it has all the features needed for this, bonus is it uses application level security rather than device level etc. (I've tried literally all others!)

Mine is on the van for delivery today, Pixel2 White 64Gb (UK) Ordered Xtremeskins wrap for the Panda effect also :D

I have the Black, it's a matte type finish and i find the grip good. As per the previous comments the corners are quite angular in the hand but i quite like that.

Does anyone else have the Gold, 64Gb, L09 variant from Carphone Warehouse and if so are you stuck on VTR-L09C432B120 ? It is EMUI 5.1 Android 7.0 but the March Security update. I have seen people posting about being on later versions but wondered if you all manually updated ? I've had a few...

Similar to dov1978 i swap phones quite regular (not boasting just sayin!), this year I've had the G6, Keyone, S8 and currently P10. I've had the P8,P9 and Nova before and it seems that the Huawei design language just speaks to me. Suits my overall needs and taste. Only complaint is that the...

P8 P9 Nova P10 Others in-between but keep coming back, other than a poor update cycle Huawei phones just seem to suit my taste ...

UK unlocked and i'm at 1.30.401.1

The comment was to do with current and future battery life, from day zero the G5 is marginally better than the HTC 10, but, the main reason for the comment is the replaceable nature of the battery should you need to go on a long trip or when the current battery starts to deteriorate.
