Giff gaff supposed to piggyback off 02, do you know how the speed compares to 02 5G?

I have no idea, I find it ok when I'm at home, however if I travel to the countryside or the seaside it's not the best.
 
One of my Galaxy buds apparently isn't charging so if I can't get this thing to work I might try some Pixel buds. I'd rather not get new buds right now but we will see.

Can't recall if you're in the US but both Best Buy and Google have them on sale, probably through today, for $169.

I like mine a lot.

I am in the US. I saw that price but I'm going to wait and try to make my galaxy buds work. If I can't maybe around Christmas there will be a good sale again. I wear hearing aids so I don't need buds often but I like to use them when I'm out walking.

I think I prefer my pixel buds pro 2's to my airpod pro 2's, they fit my ear better. I don't use the gemini features though

Odds are slim that I would use Gemini through the buds. I suppose I would get some device specific features using the Pixel buds on a Pixel too although I don't know exactly what.

I like their fit better with the little wings to help secure them but the controls on the AirPods Pro are better. Tapping the Pixel Buds to play, pause, activate/deactivate ANC, adjusting volume means often pushing them into the ear, something not so comfortable sometimes. They also often just don't register the action. Using the stalks on the AirPods is much more responsive and comfortable, IMO.
 
sold my pixel 10 pro XL when the iPhone came out but just grabbed another 1 via the giffgaff deal. Supposed to arrive today

Weirdly I prefer the tapping the earbuds method as you can do it with one finger. Each to their own I guess
 
Got an insane deal today, my local retail store network offered me €390 trade-in value for my Pixel 6a which I bought 3 years ago for €340 🤯

And another €200 discount because of cyber Monday...

So, I got a Pixel 10 Pro XL 256gb for €610 🤯
OMG, the next day I bought P10 Pro XL, store dropped phone cost by another €100. I went to their customer service and they compensated me those €100 🤯

So, at the end I paid grand total of €510 🤯
 
Qpr2 came out yesterday

And it's a big one.
  • 90:10 split-screen
  • Expanded dark mode
  • Lock screen widgets
  • Auto-themed icons and icon shapes
  • Notification summaries
  • Fingerprint unlock while screen off is back
Still missing Daily Hub. Maybe back in QPR3?

I've been on the beta for a month or so and just did the ADB update this morning to the final. Smooth process and zero issues.

Is this what I'm downloading right now that's 744mB?
 
I might be going stupid but how do you add the widgets to the lock screen. Can't seem to get it to work.
They’re one screen over to the right, not on the main front lock screen. Swipe left and you’ll see the initial widgets Google has picked for you. You can then edit that screen like you would on a home screen.

Yep. Also has 50+ security patches. Lot of stuff going on there.

And make sure you enable it in Settings-->Display & touch-->Lock screen-->Widgets on lock screen

Let's talk night time pictures. Is there a way to make the pictures taken after dark to be not so bright? It's impressive how the phone gathers all the light and makes the pictures so vivid but at times I want them to appear more realistic.

I think the easiest way would be either post photo edit adjust brightness or while taking pictures adjust on screen brightness and or focus

Not sure switching of night sight will work, but if you use pro mode and adjust the EV down will
