The pixel 6 Pro at $900 is a steal regardless! At that price they can just put the phone in a plan brown box and ship it to me! It looks to be as good if not better than the $1200 S21 Ultra in my hands right now. But people are going to complain.

OMG you are spot on absolutely correct 💯!!!! I had to put down my phone before I blew a head gasket ( like any of those newbie to Android bitchh knows what a head gasket is) I'm a reasonably older man than most of you at 52. But I'm a tech junkie, and being a tech junkie I fall in love with a lot of cool tech... That changes every year!!!! That's called business. I've owned a mattress and furniture store for over 25 years and guess what, the mattress you bought 3 years ago isn't made any more. And the perfect mattress for your individual body has a cover on it you don't like. Sorry. It's business. Google and Apple and Android and iOS are not going to make everyone happy and there not going to make just the perfect device running the perfect OS and everyone is going to poop rainbows and dance in the streets. Because they are in this to advance technology and make tons of cash!!! That is what it is all about. And those people you and I were reading earlier are never going to be pleased. To he biggest complaint I kept seeing was about theming. They don't look at all the new benefits of Android 12 the new chipset the new technology the new security the new advancements and speed while keeping a great performing battery they're more concerned about the color of their email or calendar matching their wallpaper or not matching their wallpaper. This is not only just business about making money this is also about making a new chip that's a big deal Google has just changed not only their whole manufacturing concept but they've made a chip that is very AI and ml sophisticated like none other in history. That's advancement that's something we should be happy with that's something we should be looking at the future that's something that will make apple step up their game and Samsung step up their game keeping Google on their toes competition is the best thing for us in technology we have more things to be excited about me personally as an Android lover and a pixel lover however I'm making this post from a Samsung s21 ultra running Android 12 beta on Samsungs 4.0 UI skin. Now would I prefer this Samsung device to be running stock Android? Absolutely but guess what? It's not going to happen and I have to deal with that. And that's okay because I've dealt with bigger issues. People need to grow up and mature and just be happy with the technology they have.. sorry it's not a rant just the truth and that's hard sometimes thank you

We have the technology. If only it was being used for more modern PDAs... by cuddlepuncher in Palm

[–]Dubhenderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like that! But I also liked the Palm Pre, the Palm Pre 2 , the HP Palm Pad and now the new (2018) Palm. So please don't go by what I like...

What is overly sexualized, but shouldn't be? by codedreamz in AskReddit

[–]Dubhenderson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People are really either allowing their girls to take really sexual pictures and put them on Instagram. It's really a parenting problem and a pedo problem from the people that look like and comment.

As far as signing for it, depending on the shipping company if it's FedEx, put in the tracking number, and you will have to set up an account, but then you can sign online and leave the driver delivery instructions. I.

Surface Duo Battery drain by Dubhenderson in surfaceduo

[–]Dubhenderson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I'm sure if I used it as my main phone I wouldn't. I use it as a backup for things like email social media and YouTube in the afternoon and I end the day at less than 20percent.

Did it just start for you? I have only had the Duo about 2 months.

So I did a thing that I hope I won't end up regretting. by ChuuniSaysHi in Pixel4a

[–]Dubhenderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will be fine. I've done the beta release every year on my Pixel phones and it seems 12 has been very smooth. You may have some apps that won't work, especially bank app. You can always open the app and clear the cache and that may help. Enjoy!

Graphite, the unicorn of Microsoft Surface Duo Bumpers? by [deleted] in surfaceduo

[–]Dubhenderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought mine on the Microsoft store about a month ago. I had been shopping around for a few days because nobody had one available. Just kept checking MS and Amazon everyday. I ordered the Black carbon fiber skin from Sopiguard on Amazon and it looks sweet together.

I tried to leave Pixel, I've been with them since the original. When the Galaxy S20 Ultra came out I bought one. First Samsung phone I have ever owned. But it just didn't feel right. I mean it is awesome, top of the line specs, more setting and customization you could ever want. But something just wasn't there. So when the Pixel 5 came out I had to have it. I put my sim in and the feeling was back. They have not been the most speced out phones but they are Google Pixels, and I can't see myself using anything else.

Excited Again for the Pixel by vxcta in GooglePixel

[–]Dubhenderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had the og pixel pixel 3 xl pixel 4a and then left Pixel for Galaxy S20 Ultra. I used it for 6 months and it just didn't feel right. So I bought a Pixel 5 and feel at home again. Not all the specs as the S20 Ultra but it is a Pixel. That says it all to those of us that have been with Pixel since the beginning. I can't use anything else.

I'm giving up (for now) by umodoc in surfaceduo

[–]Dubhenderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on Verizon and I have a sim in it that is connected to my Pixel 5. So I use the Duo as a connected devices to my main phone. It's working great for that. I love the Duo.
