    What storage size did you buy? Is 128GB enough?

    Thanks for the feedback so far. Oh man I jumped through a lot of hoops. I ended up buying two 128GB Google 8 Pixel Pro phones and returning them.. I I noticed the black Friday deal and I was trying to get the 256GB one from Amazon, but they were selling so fast. I ended up getting a 512GB...

    What storage size did you buy? Is 128GB enough?

    After cracking my Pixel 7 Pro yesterday, I went out and bought an 8 Pro earlier today. I haven't opened it yet, but I'm seriously wondering if 128GB is gonna last me for a few years. It was more than enough on my 2XL, but I was already at 40% within a year with the 7 Pro, but I think a good...

    I'm sorry but 1 year later, the Pixel 2 still has an awful voicemail system

    What's the Verizon voicemail app called? I deleted it almost immediately.

    Weird. I just downloaded attached visual voicemail app. That shows a history, but why can't I just have it on the phone app?

    Misleading? How would I have known if its a carrier issue? I have attached as my carrier btw, and I don't have the voicemail tab on my phone app

    Tl;Dr version: Google's voicemail system is terrible. Setting up voicemail was a chore and required going to the at&t store, and the voicrmail box isn't readily accessible and requires a password input every time. What's worse is that I don't have a list of who left voicemails. No number...

    Pixel 2xl not recognizing USB C to A hardware

    A bit flabbergasting we never got this outside of the box... But at first I got a third party one from Amazon, but it didn't work--as in my laptop doesn't recognize the hardware and my pixel 2xl and I can't put or take anything out of my phone.. It just charges my phone. I tried my car too, and...

    I'm sorry but 1 year later, the Pixel 2 still has an awful voicemail system

    This is by far one of the worst features, and its something I complained about late last year after the pixel 2/xl came out. 1.Why the hell do I still have to type in a password to check my voicemail every time and why can't it be accessed via another Tab on the phone app next to Favorites...

    I've used the Gservicefix for a little over a week now and I think I noticed improvement, because coincidentally my data with att stopped working around the same time for some reason, so I reset it the other day and its working again via System-->Reset options-->Reset Wi-Fi, mobile, and...

    Screen Profile / Battery Life

    how is it completely black?No matter how dark my background is, most of my screens(settings, chat, remains a white background). Only black background I'm getting outside of my screen is when I swipe down on short cuts from the top of the phone(black but transparent background), and when I press...

    Battery life took a hit after 8.1 update
