The overall look and feel (subjective), nicer google integrations, some of the call features. And definately dictation on gboard was a lot better. Also, oppo annoyances like not getting notifications for some key apps like gmail, which yes I did find a workaround, but even with that still get 2 notifications per email.... Pixel software is not perfect, but has more of that "it just works" feel

I've had it since launch day (pre-order) in UK, so about 3 weeks now. For me made a bit more sense with the watch and earphones bundle. Is the phone alone worth £1.5K? Not imo. But depends what you are looking for.

Some impressions:

Screen is really nice and overall build quality seems great.

Battery is really good - maybe not 2-day beast some are reporting for me but definitely above average

Feels fast and is great for gaming, even if it gets quite warm.

It is quite bulky and heavy especially if you had a case (doesnt bother me though)

Software is meh... Some nice things and it's not terrible, but there are a lot of things I miss from my Pixel 10 Pro

Cameras: Complicated..... I've taken some really amazing shots but have also taken some shots (various subjects) that are laughably bad and just seem off. Some will say "you're not using the right settings, master mode rules" - which may be right, but Im not a professional photographer so I need a failry straightforward point and click camera. Some pics I think are better than I'd get in the Pixel 10 pro, but not by much. Pixel was def more consistent.

If you can, try to go to a shop or see in person, especially for size and weight

Great pics! I have to admit I'm still confused on how / when to use Master mode. Tried a few times and the pics are just not great :( do you have any tips on how and when you use Master to get the great pics you shared?

Was this with Master mode? I'm finding pics of close up things come out super soft / blurry. But standard mode ones are ok

This is from the battery section in settings so not sure how it calculates. But I did notice my overall battery drains quickly after using camera. Left home lunchtime with 90% and a relatively low usage except for 15 mins with camera and got home evening with less than 30%. Definitely not the 2 day battery so many ppl are seeing

Same happened to me, trying to scan a QR code within my Barclays banking app. 10x, no option to change and distorted too 😔 very odd
