    pixel 6a pre-orders

    I would guess some people would appreciate the 6.1 inch size. The pixel 6 feels bulky to me with many of the cases that are made for pixel 6. I do agree it might be a tough choice with the lowered price of the pixel 6 and the specs you mentioned. Unfortunately the lowered price, for the pixel...

    Pixel 6a

    It's not that small, I just like to mix up the no. 5 with the no. 6

    Pixel 6a

    My bad. I'm old. Another typo. Why is the number 5 so close to the number 6 on my keyboard?

    Pixel 6a

    Pixel 6a in " chalk" color looks good. 6.1" comes in a little smaller than the rumored 6.2". Price is $599 here in Canada. I think I'll pass on this phone. I'm more interested in the pixel buds pro. They are going to have noise cancellation that will be upgraded to add spacial audio. The...

    For anyone who's just purchased a Pixel 6/6 Pro...

    My P6P is great. Only had YouTube related issues, these are pretty much gone. I've got the battery life of a pixel 5. I've kept the screen at 60Hz and it's smooth. I'll revisit the smooth display setting when the March update comes. Of note, going into my garage, I dropped my naked phone, it hit...

    Switched from iPhone

    Swipe down from the top of screen with 2 fingers to access the brightness slider. Quick tap, found in settings:system/gestures will allow you to take screen shots by double tapping the back of the phone.

    Google Delaying Update(March 2022) ... Again

    I agree. I've done a few tweaks in the meantime. I've installed transparent clock & weather. Links to calendar and I can tap through various cities for weather. I've set my brightness to just over half and turned off smooth display (120 Hz). My battery life is over a day and a half now. I...

    Google Delaying Update(March 2022) ... Again

    They've taken on a massive bug list! Let's hope they can pull it off. They even added a feature to access the calendar from the at a glance widget, there's a nice bonus.

    Pixel 6a

    I'm also considering, but not sure. There's still a lot of unknowns like, will it release in May, will it have a 90 Hz display, a solid battery and a manageable 6.2"display. If those wants could be met along with a great price tag, I'm in! That would help keep me from wearing out my P6P...

    some YT vids extremely bright

    I watched your latest clip. When I lower the brightness all the way there video is still in hdr, but when I go back and touch the brightness slider it does go very dim, and stays dim. If I move the slider up even just a little, it goes back to hdr

    some YT vids extremely bright

    I changed the video quality on the YouTube app. Went to settings, video quality preferences and changed it to data saver, from higher picture quality. Now the video is normal in landscape and portrait. I changed it back to higher picture quality and it also now displays properly. Thanks B...
