Im using 4 different messenger apps and i dont really need to track it. If people sent you a message, i just open and respond. I have an iphone and i dont use iMessage at all. I think Europe is different to USA.

One problem would be, if they go smaller it gets more expensive and then there is less space for camera/battery and so on. So you pay more for less power.

Maybe Google finds its way like Apple and will get a wider range of phones.

What is your current phone?

In todays world the Pixel 8 is a small phone. It has nearly the same size as the IPhone 15Pro which is also a small phone.

Is there any flagship phone with smaller dimendions?

I think there could be a big hardware change for people who are interested in the photo area. I want to see how that bigger sensor and AI performs. Currently there are not many brands who stand a chance sgainst the Pixel photo quality. Smartphones resching a goof point for a second camera.

But besides this, i also agree that locking Software features is BS and they should not copy Apple with that.

I dont know how, but i have currently 68gb of App data on my phone. Im a photographer and traveler and i already try to push photos to cloud. But sometimes its not possible. So im happy about 256gb, so i dont need to care.

I want to switch to a Pixel 8 Pro, but im considered with that price tag and i need to pay 70€ for additional 128gb of storage…

I mean they promoted it with more MP cameras and better video, that will all take up storage.

I think its fair to call it BS not starting with 256gb as a basis.

is there an alternative browser for android? im very happy sbout uBlock instead of using a VPN for blocking Ads. I stopped using Chrome, since there are now add ons for mobile.

My Huawei P30Pro NE only received 1 Update and im thinking the 8Pro could be the final replacement. Im still waiting for Battery tests.

My work phone is a IPhone13pro and battery is crazy good there. I hope Pixel can get closer to Apple.

I guess they have then 7 years time to fix battery life or make it worse every year.

Yeah i hate the big Screen, i like the size of the normal Pro. But i miss the 5x zoom, that nearly all Androids do have on that price tag.

Why did they put the 5x only in the Max version… im on 13pro and can switch next year to 15pro. But im missing some new features or what “next gen” portraits do mean.

I will wait what Pixel 8 Pro will do, maybe this year they have more to offer.

It would be a very strange design approach to add an “backup” port. I think there are alreay gaming phones that have it? But for the normal person this seems to be odd.

I would like that we can exchange those ports without removing the display… i had two phones that had broken usb c ports. A good thing we have wireless charging.

I connect my bose nc700 with an audio cable to my controler and it works fine. I thought PS5 doesnt support other BT headsets, but i guess i should check.

How long do you travel? I have In Ears and Over Ears with BT and both have battery time over 20hours. And i can also charge them in their cases.

I have an iphone 13pro as second phone because of work. A lot of times i cant use the back gesture and then i need to hit a small button in the app. Its super annoying…even after a year it is not consistent

Is it possible to subscribe to that community? i tried https://lemdro.id/ in the search but that didnt work.
