Put a cheeky bid in for an obsidian 256GB Pixel 9 Pro Fold on eBay UK last night; forgot about it and seen that I’ve won it earlier today. Seller has posted it, it’ll be with me tomorrow 
It’s nigh on faultless bar a tiny hairline scratch on the edge of the screen; a Spigen screen protector will soon hide that
My S24U is going back to Amazon UK; bit miffed really as hadn’t realised it wasn’t a UK phone but a Middle East one and both Samsung Pay & Google Wallet don’t work as they should; found out the other day…
Mous Case is on its way to me for it too; just need to sort a MagSafe ring for it

One bit of advice from another P9PF user whose tried using magsafe rings, both directly on the device, behind a skin and inside a case—it needs to be positioned lower than you think if you care about wireless charging and not just the ability to mount and they don’t stick well. I don’t know if it’s the matte texture on the back but all of mine get pull off. I finally found both a clear case and a thin carbon fibre style case that had the ring included in the proper location.Put a cheeky bid in for an obsidian 256GB Pixel 9 Pro Fold on eBay UK last night; forgot about it and seen that I’ve won it earlier today.

This clear case I have shows the proper magsafe ring position. This is the case I’m using now…very thin and nice strong, properly positioned magsafe ring.

Thanks - I’ve had one before so know it’s peculiar location
Just a shame very few case makes make a decent case for the 9 Pro Fold, more so with MagSafe built in

16 QPR1 Beta 3.1
I saw the update for that in my System, did the download and install, after it was all done, it said failed at restart or something ( which I've never seen before ) I restarted my phone, and it shows it's still on the July 5 patch, and no other updates available.
Strange
Can anyone recommend a good quality vegetable tanned leather case for the 9a as I am struggling to find one.
I have the Belroy one that I got from the Google store but not loving it as the leather does not feel as good as I thought it would.
I am in the UK if that helps.

Just bought a Pixel 9a this Black Friday for $350. I think it is a good deal.
After the iOS 26 disaster (and a 13 Mini sold to my brother after that), I went to my beloved Pixel 5. Beautiful phone but it is outdated and man, why not to go to a more recent version?
I hope that I can disable most of the AI things and the battery last me for at least 2-3 days since this Pixel 5 last me for 1-2 days (a phone bought second hand from Amazon 1.5 years ago).

I have all of the AI rubbish disabled on mine so it is doable and I get 2 days from a single charge but a bit less on busy days.
Nice. That's what I want to hear.
I think the phone arrives in the middle of December. I hope i can squish at least 2.5 days of battery
Just got in from work after a 12 hour shift and it's been a fairly light phone day with some calls, texts and Google maps and I am on 74% but some days are heavier but it never stops below 50% on a work day.
