@darthcharius 6 ай бұрын

Everyone says that the Pixel 8 has better software support, the problem lies in its chipset compared to the s233, How will that Tensor perform after 5 years of use, as it is still barely average in the middle segment?? With s23, I believe that sd gen 2 will still be competitive in 5 years against phones in the middle class.. And as for the premium look and feel in the hand as well as the build quality, Samsung is ahead of the Pixel in every way. Personally, here in Serbia, the prices of these two devices are relatively close, so I believe that s23 is better in terms of investment-gain. I use s23 from March, and is awsome. Cameras is way better from last updates, battery can hold 2 days of usage, if you can use it wihout playng any games. But when i travel and use phone a lot, it ends day for about 30%. So my money is on S23... see ya

Samsung is less buggy, and at £550 on amazon, cheaper than the pixel. I would choose the S23 but I'll probably hold out for the S24 and see what generative Ai and translation features they bring. Hopefully on device - most of pixels useful features are cloud based and offers via google one, so you don't need a pixel

@Vss077 7 ай бұрын

tbf cloud based AI is prob currently better compared to on device, since its easier to train / update the AI, on-device needs an seperate update for faster compiling, learning, (features) & prob doesnt learn as fast as cloud based, since the AI doesnt get feed as much as a cloud based one (since it moslty only learns from your data), which makes it bit more "restrictive". for bugs: if samsung had proper OneUI i would agree. but their launcher is so unoptimized its insane compared to other brands, but they getting better. Also to bring the pixel up: thats what u pay for, u can use it for free otherwise u pay for it, like any 3rd party AI software - i would like to use it but pay for it monthly? nah.

@@Vss077 I like OneUI - the multi-window is best in class. Better than all other Androids and iPhone has nothing. Secure folder is great, Routines is like Apple Shortcuts. Multi-Sound and smart things is great. I don't know your experience but typically critique of OneUI comes from low level handsets or very old versions.

To AI i agree. imo both things have their pros & cons - i expect the new SD gen 3 wont have "much" AI, its very basic too, as seen that some chinese devices have the new chip but still missing the promised / shown main AI features, maybe in 3-4 years it will be insane.

I've been an Apple user since June 2021 with an iPhone 12 (before of that I had an Oneplus Nord) Now I am a back to Android with a Pixel 8 for 2 weeks now. This phone is great for my usage. Bright for outdoor, fast to switch between apps, beautiful camera for everyday shots (I have a Sony camera for more HQ pictures) and great battery life for its form factor. 5h hours of screen time per day, and it usually need to charge at 6pm or 8pm (with the iphone I needed to charge it 2-3 times per day). I went with the Pixel to go pure android and it's so smooth to have only the Google apps and not the Samsung ones (or Xiaomi ones). I only play Clash Royale once per day so I don't use this phone regularly for gaming, so the G3 CPU is doing great to me. Drawbacks: - videos, bot good as iPhone ones but I have the Sony camera for that - emojis, Apple emojis are like the universal ones - Instagram is more buggy that iPhone's one - Gallery app, I recently watched some pics about Samsung ones and that's a thing I would like to Install on my Pixel (I am so glad of APKs...)

True you can't uninstall some Samsung apps, which isn't ideal; however, Samsung doesn't force them in your face the way Google does. Mine are buried in a folder in the apps page--I literally have not even seen them FOR YEARS so I can't say it has an impact, being just being a nuisance in principle. So, do you want a full row of forced propaganda on your home screen or a home screen that is 100% your choice. Guaranteed Korean-American freedom wins in my book!

@@dyeace lol. You can get rid of the search bar. You can't get rid of the apps. Sticking the icon in a folder doesn't get rid of the app, it still takes up storage space, and still tries to become default. And since nobody prefers them, why have them at all, let alone make them impossible to remove? Shouldn't that be up to us, whether it's Google or Samsung, or whatever? I like Samsung phones, I'm just not convinced that they give you more choice or freedom than pixel. Both could stand to improve. I don't see why anything other than system files should be impossible to remove.

@@xenod1066 1. You can't remove search bar on pixel. 2. What's this about other apps trying to be default? Must be another pixel fail. On Samsung you choose your defaults and it sticks for life. Haven't adjusted default apps in years, and they're all custom. 3. Storage isn't an issue. I have 512 always (Samsung's minimum since it's always free upgrade from 256). And I never use more than 50gb. TBH I wish my phone had less storage in the age of cloud. Just paying for shit I don't need. That said, if you really care about storage 🤡 I doubt Samsung apps take up much space. Couldn't tell you what the Samsung apps are or what they do. Unlike Google, Samsung doesn't shove its shit down my throat. Rip your home screen

@@xenod1066 just double checked lol. Google confirms the search bar can't be removed. As discussed earlier best you can do is replace it with another bullshit. Your home screen can never be 100% yours. Cope game is strong with you for suggesting it can be removed
