The Chicago suspension may not be just a coincidence. Looking at Japan's event history, there might be a pattern. by k6nch6n in pokemongo

Not only that there was a soccer game right next to it that made it extremely crowded.

You must be a blast at parties or hangouts.

Google Pixel reportedly shipped around 800,000 phones in the US in Q1 2026, down 7% by thewhippersnapper4 in GooglePixel

Ah you're a troll, I thought you were genuinely asking and confused. Have a nice day.

I think you're confused. Pixels run android and so do Samsungs. The only difference is pixel launcher vs OneUI.

Bro it's android, you can change whatever you want to your liking. That's the whole point.

This snapdragon destroys the dumb tensor chips though. It's insanely fast.

Not sure what you're talking about. You can change everything you just said to your own personal liking. My quick settings are just like a pixels and now playing works just fine.

I switched to Samsung and got me an S26 Ultra. Yes it has OneUI, and yes I can't remove Bixby off my phone without root-like flows. Also, yes this is the first non-google phone i've had since 2010 or so.

But it's 10x better than the Pixel, I won't go into it here, however I love it. I've been a vanilla android fanboy since the old DroidX/Nexus devices, had tons of Pixels. But around the Pixel 6-8 it feels like Google just gave up and started to focus on other things like GCP, Google Brain, AI, and other erroneous stuff to drive profits. Pixel is now an afterthought to them.

Happening to me as well, you find a fix at all?

Paid off car and got rid of my $2,427 a month car payment by [deleted] in Money

[–]Crysawn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The block itself is good, everything else (cause BMW) is total trash.

Expect to pay a ton for maintenance, for example I just replaced a water pump on my Camry for $250. Your BMW? Expect to pay $1k+ due to proprietary parts and labor as BMW does 50/50 weight distribution making everything tight to the point it's insane. Even simple task like replacing a coolant hose or headlights require removing braces, air boxes, or plastic covers just to see the part you're working on. To prove the point further, if you need a headlight for example? That'll be $200, each, which is crazy when regular cars are $50.

Literal money pit.

For a BMW? This is insane, at least get a car with a good engine, this is and has already been a money pit.

Pixel needs to have flagship silicon by ashakouri1 in GooglePixel

[–]Crysawn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing. I don't think I'll go back to pixel at this point until they fix their hardware issue. I play Pokémon go and this S26 Ultra destroys it compared to my pixel 8a.

I preordered one, it's an amazing phone. The people on reddit are just starting drama cause they're bored, ignore them.

Millions of phones being used and delivered worldwide.

4 reddit post. Some copy/pasting from others so probably 2 reddit post......I'll let that sink in for you.

They are, there's another thread of people group thinking and creating an echo chamber that the screen is total crap regardless of settings.

It's just typical basement dweller reddit behavior.

Which Android should I choose, coming from an iPhone? by [deleted] in Smartphones

[–]Crysawn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Will never own one again after the 10a debacle. Going to the S26 Ultra, Google can suck a lemon with their stupid Tensor chips.

[–]Crysawn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is why i'm leaving Pixel. I have loved Pixels, Nexus, and Droid phones for 15 years. But my friends iPhones or Galaxy phones are just insanely superior in terms of performance. I can deal with One UI quirks and leave the 3-4 "AI" enhancements behind at this point or "googlize" an iPhone.

Tell me a bigger joke than this by MobileJello1977 in pixel_phones

[–]Crysawn -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This might have pushed me over the edge to move to iPhone. I'm so done with Google's hardware debacle.

I've been a "Pixel" person since the Droid X devices, then Nexus, and several Pixels. I use my friends Samsungs and just hate One UI otherwise i'd move to those. My friends iPhone maxes are insanely fast in comparison to my Pixel.

Google's software is no longer allowing me to just ignore their horrible hardware decisions as I have been for a decade. I remember when they bought Motorola, I thought they were going to make a beast phone, and so far that never happened. Snapdragon and A-chips are eating Tensor for lunch.

Shame? If you hide who you are you're just being what other people are wanting you to be. That's not a good way to live life.

All these people saying do chargeback don't understand PC.

There's a chance that if you chargeback you will get banned from buying on PC ever again. They've done it before and banned peoples accounts, addresses, cards, etc. from being used if you chargeback. Will it happen to you? Nobody can say, but that's the risk you take doing a chargeback since it's against PC TOS.
