Pixel 3 whose switching?

For movies and games and pictures etc.. I have currently used 185gb on my 512gb note 9 so far hahhaa

Exactly now that I have all this storage I am able to download movies so i could watch when I'm not accessible to data (like on the train underground) etc - i know there are SD cards for that but it feels good knowing I can out all that on my phone without an SD card

Agreed! I'm not a fan of using SD cards as my last experience with them I had slow xfer speeds
 
I'm glad I dont have to make excuses for my phone.

Its funny to hear things like: "Why would you need that much storage or ram", "Why would you need a pen", "Why do you need a headphone jack", "Why cant you just forget about the notch", "Why would you need removable storage", etc..........

How about "Why not have it all and never have to ask yourself any of those questions?"
 
Ever since Google released the Pixel they have become more like Apple. In terms of pricing and marketing.

I can even say they're worse.

When you need to advertise that you will SUPPORT YOUR PRODUCT FOR THE NEXT 3 YEARS you need to do better.

What justifies their premium pricing? Compare Apple and Samsung's build & design, at least it shows. What's their excuse for removing the 3.5mm headphone jack?

Well I definitely agree with you on that, especially with the notch and the removal of the headphone jack, bt that isn't what I was asking. I was wondering why anybody would need more than 128GB of storage.
 
It's funny listening to people talk about the Pixel 3

I was listening to All About Android discuss the new features in the Pixel 3. It's a great device but as Google often does it incorporates things that have been in the Galaxy line for years. And then the folks on AAA get giddy about these features as if Google was a genius.

For example, there's a new feature in the camera called Top Shot. What happens is that when you take a picture it takes a lot of shots. That way when the picture you took wasn't so great you can scroll through the shots and pick out a better one. The podcasters were simply over the top about how great this feature is.

But, of course, we all know this as Motion Photo, something that's been in the Galaxy phones for years. In Motion Photo it's easy to select one of the shots within Motion Photo and "capture" that one. The big difference is that Samsung takes all of those shots and puts them together into a short video also.

Last year the Pixel lovers would have called Motion Photo bloat. Now, when it's on a Pixel, it's genius.

If the Google version of night shot is taken at a lower res (and they didn't mention that) then it's the same thing that's on my lgv35
 
Pixels don't have two of my requirements: 1) Samsung Pay 2)Headphone jack.

Wow, I guess that makes sense. Personally, I would never use up 512GB on a phone - that's more storage than my desktop has and I'm not even close to filling it up. I would definitely download more movies but most of the sites I use don't let you download.

Never mind, sorry, I thought that was a reply to my comment.
 
after the pixel 2 and the bad screen and other stuff I told myself no more after the pixel 3 I have no interest I am happy with my note 9 and iPhone max , google is using the same design and didn’t so much just an camera upgrade really not worth it I wait until the pixel 4

This sounds like you are describing the apple fan base LOL
 
Just played with the Pixel 3 Ultra and my Note 9 opened everything faster. Camera quality may be close though, obviously I didnt have time to mess too much but my test shots may have been a hair better on the 3. They took an unreasonable time to process though, it's like they enhanced in three parts each time I took one and went to review it.
