I pre-ordered the Google Pixel 6a with the Series A earbuds that I narrowly chose over the Nothing Phone (1), and I use the Fossil Gen 5e smartwatch and the Fossil Hybrid Retro Pilot with a strong preference for the latter. You mentioned missing Apple’s MagSafe on non-Apple phones, this will be coming to Android by the end of 2023 with Qi2. I have been using Android since 2015 having switched from the awful iPhone 5C and the brilliant iPhone 3GS before that (it still works in 2023), and I have used some of the worst phones from the likes of LG and HMD Global using the Nokia name. Over that time frame, reliability has been lacking with Android seeing inconsistent software updates and quick abandonment by the OEM. Pixel has been the first experience for me where this hasn’t been an issue and some other reviewers and tech commentators refer to it as the “iPhone of Android”. Pixel is like a fine wine, and as it gets older, it just seems to get better and better.

With the copy and pase from your laptop to phone there is an app on windows called phone link. I use the app daily on my windows laptop and my Samsung phone. I am not sure if it available for Google devices but I don't see why it wouldn't. The setup was easy and it allows me to have all my phone calls and text messages on my laptop. It is all done through Bluetooth, so when connected I can make phone calls and send texts without using my phone. You can also mirror your phone screen to your laptop, along with all your notifications coming through to your laptop as well. Its a really handy app. It even shows your recent photos and videos took with your phone.

I end up carrying both iPhone and Pixel. Airmessage running on a Mac mini at home is great and snapdrop helps to move stuff between mac and android. The Apple Watch is so much better than pixel watch.

I recently upgraded from my old iPhone 11 to the Pixel 7 Pro after some time of looking at the iPhone 14 Pro. Ultimatly I switched because the Pixel 7 Pro was cheaper! Cheaper per month and more data for that cheaper cost even when compared with my then current iPhone 11 deal. I also found the 14 Pro uninspiring, it was more of the same with a few tweeks and in a slightly shinier package. 7 pro on the other hand gave me everything I needed and more and so far it's showing itself to be a belting phone which should have Apple and Samsung looking over their shoulders.

I definitely think the Huawei Watch GT 3 is wrongfully over looked all the time, the thing is a beast, I have been using it for about 8 months now, no issues, battery easily lasts about a week and that is with 2-3 hours of physical activity tracking 5 times a week. And for around £150 it is so much for your money. The only downside for it is that not too many apps have the automatic integration, like you can not link it to your google fit app etc, but otherwise I really would recommend you checking it out, and letting us know how it compares to the Apple watch.

I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max (8 months for now), and just getting to know the Apple ecosystem of how simple it is to just back up your entire phone and restore it in a single button press, that really sold it for me, but honestly, that's only really impacted me when I was working for a big cellphone service company/store, customers would come in, and I would do these backups and restores on a daily basis and seeing how easy it was it really did WOW'd me, coming from a lifelong android usage timeline, I was amazed, but honestly I haven't found myself doing a backup and restore for me at all... that has killed the mood a bit, I also bought the phone because of performance (Gaming, video editing, etc., etc.) and that's where it really it stands out, you get a lot of power also, and the cameras are just outstanding, I also liked it in the beginning for the weight and the feel of it, I like big displays, but was more of how sturdy it felt... and now that's been fading away a little bit, I have actually found it to be a bit intrusive size wise and quite heavy now... sometimes when I'm laying down on bed and have my phone looking downwards gravity doesn't help that much... So I want to make the switch for the Pixel 7 Pro, will potentially get the 8 Pro, but I'm a bit impatient and can't really wait for a couple of months, as I want the change to happen now.

You don't need to use portrait mode with Pixel 6 on. The sensor is big enough to do the work "naturally" rather than using a setting to artificially impose bokeh. I never use it anymore after upgrading from pixel 4xl to pixel 6pro and I am getting much better results. Try turning it off. Also, I use my pixel watch normally. Passive fitness tracking, google assistant, media control, some complicaitons and a handfull of panels or whatever they are called that you can swipe left or right from the homescreen...I get loads of notifications over night and I could possibly go at least a day and a half on a charge. It depends on how busy I was that day but I have never once run out of battery and usually go to bed with around at least 30 - 40 percent. Everyone's use case and experience is different I guess. I enjoyed this video. Thanks for making it! Hope you stay with the pixel! You can help us get the word out and make it better!

The LG V20 had that small second screen across the top. I always thought that was better than notches, pinholes or whatever that thing is Apple uses. Unfortunately it didn't even catch on with LG. I swear every one of their engineers had ADD.

I’m a full time iOS user now and I admit, I miss android sometimes. I think having both gives you the best of both worlds.

I was Android long time, mostly Samsung devices, but i've now come to realization how flawed and fragmented it is... How many times i found myself with new apps they pushed on my devices i didn't request ? or an update that pushed unremovable apps from Google onto my phone... The last straw was getting policy updates every week and having to press accept or read the wall of text and still no option to decline the new policy. Too many malware apps on the Google play store and after adding my credit card KZfaq charged $350 from my card to view ads free... which i didn't even accept but according to Google i did accept the trial popup some few weeks ago and by accepting that i accepted to subscribe to their service...

Transcription and live transcribe is the main reason I'm giving Pixel a try. Was Samsung Note 10 (loved but the screen broke) then moved to iPhone but just can't type on it well for whatever reason. So frustrating. Also annoyed by no schedule text on I messages. Few customizations. Just didn't want to pay the asking price for the samsung s23 ultra (i love the spen). Samsung not update Note 10 anymore or I would have bought another one. Got my fingers crossed trying pixel.
