Well after a week or so of deliberating; I've decided to go for the Pixel 6 Pro as I've sold my Alpine Green iPhone 13 Pro Max

I was sorely tempted by the S22 Ultra; but I've no need for the S-Pen and at close to £300 more expensive, what am I getting on the S22 Ultra that betters than Pixel 6 Pro for every day, real world usage etc...!

As excellent as the iPhone is, they just leave me bored! It's been a great 3 months, but I've been finding myself using my Samsung A53 5G more & more (dual SIM with my business SIM in there also) and only tended to reach for the iPhone for taking close up photos (although I have to say, the A53 5G does a very good job too) or for acting as a remote for Apple TV etc

So just ordered the 256GB black Pixel 6 Pro today via Amazon UK and I've ordered the Whitestone Dome screen protectors and a few cases (Spigen, Supcase & Caseology)

Will report back with pictures when it lands and I've got it all set up ;)

Looking forward to getting back to Android as my daily driver :cool:

How exciting!:D I love this phone more and more every day. It's been absolutely fantastic for travel, with the excellent telephoto and wide angle lenses, as well as very respectable battery life.

Pixel 6 Pro landed with me today

Fitted the Whitestone Dome screen protector as soon as I removed it from the box; never used one before but it's super-easy to do and works brilliantly!





All set up as a fresh device, loaded Nova Launcher onto it and fitted it into a Sage Caseology case which feels great in the hand

Great to get back to an Android device again; looking forward to testing its photo-capabilities ;)

Welcome back to the green plains of Android! I can understand what you are saying with regards to Apple. Great products and camera, but the lack of customization keeps one bored. Let us know when your Pixel 6 Pro arrives and how you are liking it!

Yep still got the Teg.... Been 17 years now but may be time to let someone else enjoy her as I'm not driving as much now.....


Bloody hell; that's good going!

Mine lasted 2 years; went from fresh import to JRSC charged to OEM again in that time; fantastic car, but not one for a daily commute (well, not for me); ended up buying a 7 series & Ive been in BMWs since

I've none of any of my Honda's unfortunately; long gone due to Photobuckets crappy service and reliability...

I'm in a BMW E39 540i Sport now - Japanese import: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=47&t=1989977

Prior to that was an F01 730D and before that another BMW E39 Japanese import, a 530i Sport Touring

Pixel and BMW go well together
