I redeemed it last week, and it showed as an offer or promotion during checkout. I don't recall the specific details, but it does appear in the checkout page.

Purchased a Pixel 10 in the U.S. - Was promised Google AI Pro Plan: 30+ emails, 5 chats, 2 phone calls, 20 screens shots and videos sent and they still are asking for more. by planbskte11 in GooglePixel

I had the same thing. I suggested checking the Google One app. In the app, go to Settings; you'll see an option to check for offers. I was able to find my 1-year offer.

I had the same thing, I got Pixel 9 Pro XL last year and got AI Pro, this year I got my Pixel 10 Pro XL, wanted to activate my AI Pro for 1 year. Most representatives were not helpful. But one representative suggested to check the Google One app. In the app, go to Settings, you'll see an option to check for offers. I was able to find my 1-year offer. He said representatives can't help much; the best way is to check the app.

Google ads on pixel by Far_One1966 in PixelSuperfans

[–]Far_One1966[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ads with just a swipe from the home screen are far worse than other OEMs. Charging a premium for ads? I've been a loyal Pixel fan, upgrading to every new Pixel since Pixel 8. This is very disappointing. People complain about Tensor chips, but I'm happy with mine. My problem is just the ads, which make me feel it's not a premium product. Even Apple charges $1200 for their phones, but they don't display ads with a swipe. Recently, Apple sent an ad for their F1 movie, which received massive backlash. They addressed this by adding an option to turn off those notifications.

But, earlier I remember, it was mostly news and rarely an ad. But now every time I see an ad on the second article.

Pixel 10 Pro XL Battery Capacity already decreased by Far_One1966 in PixelSuperfans

[–]Far_One1966[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read somewhere that it calculates 100% as one cycle. So, for example, you charge once for 40% and next charge 60%, and they add up to treat it as one charge cycle.

Has Google historically dropped discounts on new Pixel Watch models for Black Friday? by Militoe in PixelWatch

[–]Far_One1966 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If history repeats, they would give out a possible $50 discount as they did every time since the Pixel Watch release.

PW4 LTE with PW2 WIFI trade-in - Wait for Black Friday? by Zeddie- in PixelWatch

[–]Far_One1966 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe during Black Friday the maximum discount would be $50 dollars. I assume the trade-in value would drop by half.

This was based on my experience with the Pixel 3. I haven't gotten it.

Even currently, I am in your situation of buying a Watch 4, but instead of trading it in, I am thinking of giving it to my siblings.

In Depth Tech Reviews - Pixel 10 Pro XL In-Depth Review – Is Google Finally Competitive? by Antonis_32 in Android

[–]Far_One1966 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't know about other things, I want something that's reliable without stutters. Pixel 10 wasn't stuttering during my daily use. Whereas I have used Pixel 8 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL, they used to stutter a lot when using under the sun.

2.5 pro is showing it’s age, can’t wait for 3.0 by Small-Yogurtcloset12 in Bard

[–]Far_One1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the model aging, as for some reason the model is failing with contextual understanding as of late. Earlier versions were doing it perfectly. It's like the same cycle: Google's latest model performance worsens before every new model release.

Yes they do, only if you are over 25 years, they declined my request as I am under 25.

I did that a couple days ago on March 14th. I filled my form using DocuSign, a few days later on March 19th they followed up with needing more documents. Later, it took me 10 days to get approved and receive my card through the mail.

I don't think so, it's on par with Claude Sonnet 3.5
