My name's Danny and I like biscuits.

  • Could be your NAND failing, more likely just needs a factory reset. But Pixel's lack of a good backup system is frustrating. You'd likely need to set up all your apps again.

  • Isn't that iPhone out of support?

  • In what way? Battery life?

  • I notice apps closing on my Pixel 7 with 8GB every now and again, but it's totally not a big deal for me. I can imagine certain users who swap between Reddit, Instagram and some game want more RAM, but most users won't care or notice.

    Part of it is longevity too, right? With phones being supported for longer and longer you kinda want more of a headroom as apps and OS become more RAM-heavy.

    This 12GB limit probably isn't going to stop me from upgrading, but I certainly wont be paying MSRP.

  • Do yourself a favour and just pay to replace your 9's battery. Would keep you going until the 13 or even 14. That's how I'm still using a Pixel 7 today.

    I mainly want to upgrade for the improvements to the display, and for integrated MagSafe.

  • I get that on the face of it it's a bad deal, but I don't think RAM capacity is the only factor in a phone's performance.

    Given Pixel's longevity these days, I wouldn't expect Pixel 10 or even Pixel 9 users to be jumping to the 11 anyway.

  • I appreciate that they've dropped the 128GB model, but paying more for less RAM highlights the sad state of tech right now 💀

    I held onto my Pixel 3 until I got the Pixel 7, and always said I'd wait for the 11. The 12GB RAM is still an upgrade over my 7's 8GB, at least.

    Reminder: never buy Pixels at MSRP. There will be great trade-in deals and sales in November, then again in January.

  • Signal doesn't send messages via your carrier, like a "text".

  • £1700 for a phone that only gets 4 Android updates? That's kinda insane.

  • It's a bot. Clearly got their code wrong on this one.

  • Nope, just seen an exact same reference on the Google Pixel subreddit. It's just old.

  • Man, I really must be getting old if people on Lemmy, a tech-enthusiast social media site, aren't getting that reference :(

  • Safari seems snappier.

    I'm surprised my Pixel 7 got another update so soon, given it went almost a whole quarter without updates.

  • This Doomsday Draconian Demise of Android that everyone on Lemmy has been screaming about sure looks like it's turning out to be one big nothingburger and just another minor annoyance that power users need to step through once in their life.

    What will the Graphene pushers move to next? I predict the age verification stuff.

  • It's in their best interests to continue the downward trend of education in the US. They literally forced children to say a pledge of allegiance every morning. US has been indoctrinating children for hundreds of years and the only thing stopping them continue that effort are liberal teachers.

  • I had a Pixel 3 before the 7, and basically just Nexus phones before that. Sounds like maybe I'm just used to this particular shortcoming of Google's hardware! 😅

  • I have a Pixel 7 and haven't really ever noticed issues with my modem. Has it gotten noticeably worse in later models or something?
