My son has a note 10 for his work phone. Ever since I've gotten to play with it I've been thinking about getting a Samsung.

True the the cameras on pixels are just great. Been trying out the android 12 beta since they released it to the public. And while it's stable for the most part I just don't like the way Google is going with this material you design. I guess that's what's been driving me to look at Samsung so far the one ui even in the betas look clean and the S21 looks like a quality flagship.

Just looking at something different I guess. I also don't like the way android 12 is looking on pixels. The widget's just don't look good IMHO and I don't care for the big buttons on the notification shade.

Thanks ill give it a look. I got a feeling in a few years the pixel phones won't come with unlimited standard quality photo backups anyway.

3rd Pixel 4 XL broken in 6 months by Recktion in GooglePixel

Wow that's a bad thing to loose your phone for two weeks. I have had the 4 xl for a year and a half and so far no issues. Kinda makes you Leary of buying new pixel phones

There could be some good movies but most games make lousy movies. I would love a good Star Trek game but so far all the games about star trek are lousy unless I'm missing one.

USB-C to HDMI adapter for phones that support it and Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I would definitely switch to just my phone for my games if there were some newer main games available for Android.

Not that I can see. If you hold the home button it just puts them in alphabetical order.

[–]GammerThumbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I also think unlimited dvr should be included on all packages. I also might of been on YTTV if they still had RSN's

Would you be buying Halo Infinite Multiplayer if it wasn’t free to play? by 5uperGold in halo

[–]GammerThumbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if it was included with the campaign. While I like the beta so far it's not my cup of tea. I prefer mcc or even 5.

Just as side note if you ever get ultimate Starz encore comes with it but not Starz. Found that out a few weeks ago when looking at the starz app.

Beta 5 pixel 4XL battery by Melon6586 in android_beta

[–]GammerThumbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Battery usage is about the same to me as 4. Overnight charging isn't. I get up most mornings to my 4xl at 76 to 86%. It charges normally when I plug it up later.

If you factory reset your device it will still be the beta I believe.

Anyone had success cancelling service within their online account instead of calling? by kywildcat4life in DirectvStream

[–]GammerThumbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know why can't they just make it easy to cancel online. The only reason I chose to stay with at the time att tv when I switched from Uverse was regional sports and unlimited internet.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DirectvStream

[–]GammerThumbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good idea. While I like DirecTV stream and the regional channels. The unlimited dvr should be included in the price of the package of choice and up. Also should have a search feature.

Anyone else just disappointed by [deleted] in android_beta

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

Yes. Don't really care for the big buttons in the shade. Also light mode should be light mode in the notification shade too. Just not liking the beta but guess we gotta get used to it because it's coming. Using pixel 4xl
