    Official Google case review and warning

    Unfortunately I'd already ordered my live case when I read this. The packaging is better quality than the case! The NFC button is a nightmare to press, I thought it would be perfect for launching the camera i.e. even easier than a double press, wrong. The NFC parts show through i.e. they're...

    Best way to transfer everything from edge to pixel

    Is there a way of doing a hard backup of the pixel on my PC like with smart switch for my Samsung?

    Pixel curved screen and tempered glass problem

    Spigen screen protector is pretty poor. Feel, application etc all good but it's way too narrow. I got a refund from Amazon for mine. I've left it on for now but the gap around the edges is getting annoying now

    Spigen Tough or Speck Presidio

    I've got the Spigen tough on my XL and I'm impressed with it. I've had quite a few Spigen cases and they've always served me well. Looks good in black too

    screen protector

    I couldn't put a screen protector on my s6 edge + and ended up with loads of little scratches. Dirt/sand I assume and I'm very careful with my phones. I've got the Spigen tempered glass screen protector and it's way too narrow, doesn't even cover the width of the screen.

    A few Pixel XL issues..

    Google now and assistant have always recognised my voice with Yorkshire accent remarkably well. I do wish there was an expanded version of the 'ok Google' voice recognition where you could repeat various words so that Google now and assistant could do an even better job of recognising your voice

    A few Pixel XL issues..

    Install a third party camera app to use in place of the stock one! Same issue again tonight so update hasn't fixed it

    A few Pixel XL issues..

    I think it's a software issue. Tried going through the support chat but part of the trouble shooting they suggested was a third party camera app and if rather stay as I am, rebooting when it occurs every few days (there has been an update since my last crash so hopefully it's been rectified)

    A few Pixel XL issues..

    For me:- Photo/Video backup just freezes. Doesn't matter if I change from home to office Wifi. Only thing that rectifies it is a restart and then it works as expected. Camera crashes fairly frequently. I get a purple stripe on my screen before it blacks out a freezes. Can't take any photos but...

    LG G3 signal - generic issue or just a few faulty phones?

    I have the exact same issue with my lg g3 with o2. 4g seems fine/better, anything else I can't even load a webpage. Movement seems to be a big issue too, I rarely get signal driving, much worse than my s4 with 3 on 3g. I'm getting a new SIM to rule that out but it looks like a software issue...
