Pixel 10

This guy ... 128 is all I need (and then some).

Same. Currently using only 45 of the 128gb on my 8pro. It's a shame G is forcing those who like an XL sized screen to pay more for storage they might not need. More options is always better.

That would be the way I'd go this time too think it's a nice change

The ergonomics of the non xl 9 are fantastic.

One thing I'm disappointed in with the 10 is increased weight for some daft pointless magnets. Shame.

They should have ditched the equally pointless temperature sensor to save weight.

I like the magnets bc now you can use magsafe no case and agree on temp

Choice is always good. But I can't think of a single use case for me that requires carrying magnets about in my phone. None.

Fair enough. I have pixel stands about the house, never thought they needed magnets.

Yeah you can definitely go without magnets though they are so clutch on my car mount

what do you think?

Google will throttle your Pixel 10's battery, and there's nothing you can do about it

Google has confirmed that it will reduce the Pixel 10 line's battery life and charging speed over time to 'stabilize' battery performance.

I Tried the Pixel 10 Series and Google's New AI Tricks Feel Like Magic

The Pixel 10 lineup doesn’t dazzle on the outside, but inside, it packs serious power, sharper cameras, and next-gen AI—at the same price as last year's models.

I get the intent, but this comes across as lazy to me. Instead of better battery tech, you use software to extend battery health?! I guess I shouldn't be surprised as Google's approach is always software over hardware ...

100% just bad in my opinion, especially so early in the battery you should at least give users the option to turn it on. Hopefully enough people complain and they put through a software update to give you the option. Samsung and Google need to get on board with the battery tech

Software over better quality hardware in many cases.

They've had battery issues since Pixel 4a. I dumped mine before the that one lost too much capacity.

I suspect they are also implementing the hard limit to reduce overheating issues in addition to reducing capacity drop after 200 charges.

Pixels do not charge quickly in the first place. Curious about how trickle and partial charges will impact the 200 limit.

Sticking with my 9 ProXL. As retirement priorities change things, happy to get a new phone every two years vs every year - unless I'm really unhappy with my current phone (which I'm not) or a new model really wows me (which it doesn't).

That indigo does look pretty though

Got to try the 10 Pro in a store today. I know it's early sw but 10x on my S25U was sharper with more details

I've opted to cancel my order ... The more I see on the 10 series the more "meh" I get on it. (Plus my fridge crapped out on us, so there goes a big chunk of cash ).

Sorry about the fridge, might as well wait it out on the phone most definitely

Yeah, unfortunate timing on the fridge for sure ... although, I'm not sure any time is a good time to have your fridge go kaput LOL

I'm currently a Pixel 6 Pro user and have not had any issues with it. I'm debating if I should go with the 10 XL for the screen size or 10 Pro. Decision, decision. Will most likely elect the XL.
