    Bluetooth issues

    Have you tried turning Bluetooth off, then back on? That works for me when I have connection issues with my headphones.

    Not too shabby on battery life

    I've been quite pleased with the battery life on my 3a XL. My phone gets light use, so I can get over two days on a charge. Granted, my previous phone was a Nexus 5, which was notorious for poor battery life.

    Bluetooth issues

    I have a pair of 1More Triple Driver Bluetooth headphones. They worked just fine with my Nexus 5 last week, but since I've upgraded to a 3a XL, they don't work as nice. There are two issues that I run into all the time: When I power on the headphones, they don't auto connect. I have to either...

    Sooo... Who ordered?

    Just got mine a few days ago. My Nexus 5 finally started giving up and I refuse to buy a phone full of bloatware. I love my new 3a XL (except for a few minor annoyances).

    Most Netflix content has corrupted video since 8.1 upgrade

    I've been wondering about this. I've been holding off on the 8.1 upgrade. It looks like the last of the rough spots (for me) has been addressed.

    Pixel C Streaming

    Could it be IPv6 related? I know that Netflix supports IPv6 on the Pixel C and will use that for streaming if it is available. I get good quality on Netflix at home using IPv4 with only 25-30Mbps up and down. I haven't tried Amazon.

    Pixel C Streaming

    Services like these adjust their streaming bitrates according to the bandwidth available to them. If you are not getting good throughput on your WiFi, the streaming bitrate will go down, causing the picture to be more "blurry" and "pixelated" (i.e. the compressing artifacts will become more...

    Truecaller app - how get back to speaker phone?

    I think you are on the wrong forum. This forum is for the Pixel C tablet (which is a WiFi only device). Try the forum for the phones instead: Google Pixel & Pixel XL - Android Forums at AndroidCentral.com

    So what is the overall opinion of the Pixel C so far?

    Re: My opinion of the Pixel C so far... All that Samsung bloatware is why I won't buy another Samsung tablet/phone again, if I can avoid it. I love how little the C has installed on it.

    Pixel C Owners, What would you do

    I too have no interest in a keyboard, so the Pixel C is perfect for me. Long battery life. Nice display. Fast.

    Nexus 10 replacement?

    I'd be more concerned about present usefulness than future possibilities.

    Nexus 10 replacement?

    The question you should be asking yourself is not whether or not Android tablets have a future, but whether Google's choices in the future would artificially limit the life expectancy of any device you get today. The Pixel-C was the best option for me when I bought mine. Most people don't use...

    Anyone know how to fix this?

    There have been a few people that've reported similar experiences. Doing a quick search should come up with a couple of threads. Here is one where the OP ended up RMAing the device: http://forums.androidcentral.com/pixel-c/708275-half-screen-corruption-issue.html

    [Pixel C] [Android Nougat] Play Store fails installing/updating apps - error 495

    I had an issue with the play store recently and it was related to my IPv6 tunnel acting up. Once I fixed my IPv6 issues, the store worked again. I don't know the error number I was getting, unfortunately.
