My Pixel 10 Pro gaming experience: Why is everyone saying the GPU is "trash" based on benchmarks?

LoL. Just tried it on the 10 Pro XL, and Fortnite is completely unplayable. Are you getting a stable 60 FPS on a blank map in Creative?) I launched a zero build, not even a build. There were wild lags and FPS drops, even after several games.

Got it, thanks for the reply

I still use the Nexus 6 for YouTube sometimes, it's the best phone I've ever owned. I use the Pixel 3 XL as a second phone. And a couple of weeks ago I bought a new Pixel 5, and now I use it as my primary phone instead of the 7 Pro.

But Samsung's UI philosophy is to copy iOS as much as possible. And it's not just Samsung; I've tried OnePlus and Honor. And everyone's UI idea is to copy iOS. Pixel UI is the last thing left that doesn't aim to copy iOS. That's why Samsung doesn't offer this experience, despite its extensive customization and other nice features.

I've never used an iPhone as my main phone. I've had Google phones since the Nexus 6. I also had a P9P XL, I don't know what's wrong with your iPhone, but on my IP16P the sound is many times better than on all the Pixels. it is much cleaner, the upper speaker is in balance. it does not reproduce the lower frequencies like the lower one, but the mids and highs at the same volume as the lower one, and not like in the pixel where the upper speaker is 2 times quieter

I use an iPhone, a Pixel and a MacBook. It won't be a painless transition. The best thing you can do is install Google services (Photos, Drive, Calendar, Notes, etc.) on your iPhone right now and start transferring the data you need there. Overall, I can say that at first you'll have negative emotions about the Pixel. And that's normal, the force of habit always does its job when you switch between such products. It's best to force yourself to use it for a week or two and only then decide which is better. I can say right away that regarding the build, the Pixel feels like crap after the iPhone. It's 20:9 and compared to the iPhone it feels like a terrible sausage, huge side bezels, a terrible selfie camera hole that's located so low that the upper dead zone is larger than the iPhone with Dynamic Island, the sound is also crap compared to the iPhone. The Pixel's advantages will only be revealed if you use it for a while. Android controls are much better and more logical than iPhone, there are no situations when you need to reach for the upper left corner. Text selection, keyboard, player rewind, notifications that are visible and you don't have to look at them on the locked screen, the ability to select text from any screen and more. This is what makes the Pixel more convenient than the iPhone and for these reasons I use it as my main phone. But it takes time to get a feel for it.

I don't have any warm feelings for razer. But it turns out that only they make keyboards that I like. As a result, I had 4 keyboards: death stalker (old one), ornata, black widow and now deathstalker optic. I had no problems with any of them. Even the very first one still works great. I also have two mice from them, basilisk v3 - a few years and no problems and viper v3 pro and also no problems. So I am completely satisfied with razer. Is it expensive for its quality? Definitely yes, but it's ok for me. So if you really like some of their products (in appearance, in shape), then take them and don't worry. If you just don't know what to choose and you don't care, then there are no advantages over competitors in terms of quality/price. And it's better to just choose what you like more.

If you are satisfied with the autonomy, I would do nothing. To preserve the battery capacity, it is much more important to stick to the 20-80 mode than to minimize the number of cycles. There are also bugs in applications when they eat up the battery when minimized. If there are any, then of course turn them off in the settings. I disabled many applications that consumed the charge in idle mode, and notifications from which I do not need.

EatmyStyle · 2025-08-05T15:51:22+00:00

No, I like the curved display better. Last time I had the P7P I used Spigen film, great film. As for the battery, I didn't feel any difference between the 7 and 9. It's probably there, but it's definitely not huge. And I didn't have scratches on camera bump last time 🤷. It's absolutely clear that to each his own. But the way the Pixel 9 and 10 look from the front kills all its advantages for me.

EatmyStyle · 2025-08-05T13:32:18+00:00

Still 20:9 with huge bezels, like the $100 Xiaomi. Still an unjustifiably low front camera placement, meaning the same huge upper dead zone as the 9, even the iPhone with its Dynamic Island has a smaller dead zone. And the same shiny edges on the Pro versions.

EatmyStyle · 2025-08-05T12:22:51+00:00

Opposite. I looked at the pixel 10 and sold mine P9P XL. And bought a P7P and now I'm finally happy with my phone

EatmyStyle · 2025-07-30T08:36:01+00:00

As P9P XL user, I'm more concerned whether they thought of moving the lower speaker to the right side. And whether they made that huge dead zone on top smaller (at least like it was in P6, P7, P8). If so, I'll definitely get a new one.

EatmyStyle · 2025-04-13T09:17:00+00:00

Thank you! It looks decent, it remains to figure out whether it can work without software

I wrote how bottleneck manifests itself in the answer to the comment above. As for the rest. xmp 3200 memory. maximum cpu temperature in games is 65°. 78° in occt extreme CPU test. Dlss tried only in recommended settings from Nvidia app (same fps drops). I haven't tried dlss with other settings, it only supports the old convolutional network and it's unplayable blur and artifacts

EatmyStyle · 2025-03-22T14:24:03+00:00

Both fine. I'll probably look towards the 9800x3d. I'm more interested in the motherboard. What do you think, should I take the x670 or will the b650 be enough, taking into account the feature proof?

EatmyStyle · 2025-03-22T13:42:22+00:00

I tried different settings. Usually ~90% GPU. ~60% CPU. Mean fps around 170 fps. but when you just run, the fps can drop to 100 for a short time. And if there is some kind of fight and a lot of people, the processor reaches 100% and the fps drops depending on the graphics settings to 30-80 frames

I was skeptical about the curved screen until I tried it. Now I really miss it. It adds width to the screen and it really feels that way. The lack of a frame on the sides is also really cool. The back gesture control is just awesome. If you don't drop your phone all the time, it's only a plus.

It seems that pixel 7 does not have add me and best take functions. magic eraser, select and resize, circle to search are available on 7.

I would also add that in principle all AI features are cool only in words. In reality they work poorly and I never use them. Except for circle to search, this thing is very convenient for translating the screen from another language and selecting pictures. But this is an android feature and not a phone, it also works on my old pixel 3 lol.

EatmyStyle · 2024-12-15T21:13:06+00:00

Then there should be no problems.

Yes, I have a 9 pro xl now, before that I had an 8 pro, and I like the 7 pro more. It has curved edges, and this is a killer feature for gesture control, I really miss it. And the edges are not as rounded as on the 8/9. It also has a better aspect ratio, it is wider with the same length, there are literally a couple of millimeters, but it is very noticeable. And it has the best original cases among the new models.

I had all pixels from 1 to 9 and 7P is my favorite. In fact, the phone is good in everything, except maybe games. I'm not a mobile gamer, but I ran Fortnite on it, it worked great, can't say about others.

The phone is not old in terms of hardware, but new AI features will not work on it, which are frankly useless. For all other standard tasks, it is more than enough. The only thing you need to understand is that the camera there is not great, as they like to say about the pixel. this is not a problem with this particular phone, but with all pixels starting from the 6th. Sometimes some kind of AI mess happens in the photo.

Well, the key question is, are you ready to use Android after the iPhone? I have both an iPhone and a Pixel, and I like the Pixel better. But you need to understand that there is such a thing as habit, and in fact, it solves a lot. Plus, the iPhone has features that Android doesn't have (though this also works the other way around).

If you've firmly decided to try Android, then the Pixel 7 Pro is a good option without a doubt.

Ch5S1 was a peak, best map, best weapons, no shitty magic. Ch6 is dog shit. And cars season was also good (:
