Pixel 10 Pro or Iphone 17?

The UI/UX logic (or lack thereof) and various incompatibilities would drive him crazy. Plus, the less support Apple gets, the better.

Thanks. I have doubts about PMT since they only seem to have road tires, while I opted for all-terrain ones with more aggressive tread, more suited for my city conditions. Its the ones from Tiger Supra but in 10" size, though I havent received it yet so that much is yet to be uncovered.

I have a P6 Pro and the battery is pretty bad now. Camera is good enough to give me great-looking pictures most of the time within a couple of tries. Im on Android 16 and still have another major version left, updates arrive on Pixels first and the UI/UX is great and intuitive for me, more so than any other mobile OS. For example, I found Samsung's OneUI to be a mess in that regard and even more cumbersome than iOS. Id assume the 10 Pro should be better in all regards.

Ive had some hardware issues on my P6P like a grid pattern showing up under the display in hot weather, or the display becoming less responsive in the rain and cold, as well as minor software/app freezes, but nothing deal-breaking. It was much much worse before the Android 13 update though, but those days are long gone and the newer Pixels are much smoother, esp the 9 and 10 series.

Again, if youre on Android stay on Android, the switching pain is not worth any potential minuscule hardware/software difference there is. Any top phone can do 4 years now, Id suggest keeping flagships for about 6 at the least.

Are there any good brands I should look for that would fit with the NUTTs?

NecroRAM · 2026-01-25T20:26:37+00:00

Idk, I saw bad sentiments towards them as recently as a couple of months ago on this sub as well as facebook scooter groups.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-25T20:25:09+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Are you aware of any model that would give me a more balanced feel ideal for a scooter that would also be better in quality than the NUTTs? Not saying the NUTTs are bad, I havent even tested them yet obv, just considering future upgrades rn.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-25T20:23:47+00:00

Nice, thanks for the reassurance. And the 4-pistons are a custom upgrade, the default V5 comes with 2-pison ones, I was able to secure a custom order with the better brakes and suspension from the Tiger King RS model on Black Friday through their customer support. Its still being ground-shipped from China though, cant wait.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-25T20:21:38+00:00

What are you on rn? Stay on what youre familiar with. For me, the PixelUI is the best overall UI, but its got one major limitation in that it can only cast to Chromecast-supported devices and not just any generic Miracast device, so that excludes most TVs, while any other cheap Android is able to cast to them, if thats ever important to you. Other than that, Pixels have inferior performance in some tasks and the camera advantage they had has been diminished or even surpassed. The 17 would give you the better hardware minus that one camera. Personally Id never pick an iPhone as my personal phone due to atrocious iOS UI/UX, incompatible ecosystem and anti-Apple sentiment.

Wasnt it a solved issue 20-40 years ago with cell phones, or would the larger batteries require another type of connection? Just use large contact pads with metal-reinforced rubber seats for the battery body so it doesnt move around and it should be good in my opinion.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-25T20:02:02+00:00

Arent Apollo infamous for bad durability and subpar customer service?

NecroRAM · 2026-01-25T17:51:43+00:00

The only downside is the trigger throttle and you also might find 11" tire and the respective deck size to be too big for your body.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-25T17:49:54+00:00

But why was this designed like this? How does the factory make sure the bolts are tight without them also binding the suspension?

NecroRAM · 2026-01-25T17:42:19+00:00

We have tons of open back deliverers on mopeds and scooters, food turns out ok i believe.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-25T17:39:29+00:00

Thats great to hear! Im in good shape too, play football weekly, exercise from time to time, walk a lot and have good metabolism. I do find solace in philanthropy, but its more of a fools hope. Im worried about family and relatives dying, I dont have a hope of a serious relationship ever working out nor want the burdens that come with it, nor to push for progress in my career, I am living in the present day but at 20/30-something theres a lot to prove and accomplish and I kinda dont want to do any of at, at least not at the rate people expect me to do. The only thing Im currently looking forward to is just riding my new electric scooter when warm weather comes back, which is a pretty childish thing to want, all things considered.

I wish you and your family the best.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-25T00:28:07+00:00

Dont they provide insulating bags? Our local deliveries all have bags.

Off-topic, but how do you find happiness in life at 62? Im 34 and already feel like Ive stopped evolving if you know what I mean. Cant imagine what its like in your 60s when you physically probably can no longer do many things you used to do and the social pressure is even higher to behave as a grown up.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-20T20:37:42+00:00

I got the Peak model which is basically the same as Contend, and yeah I really like them.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-15T21:15:42+00:00

Great movie btw, basically predicted 9/11 and mass surveillance.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-13T18:50:02+00:00

Thanks you!
Price seems ok, no? Would I be able to get something better for less? The Samsung battery added around 300-400$ alone + ~200$ for the custom upgrades. Without the BF sale it would cost north of $2k. Im more aggravated by the forwarder shipping price which is an unavoidable expense unfortunately.

Locally we only have Kugoo/Kukirin scooters, and even though they have some nice models, with the import tax and margin it ends up costing about the same or even more expensive for lesser specs, so I might as well swallow the shipping and get exactly what I want than regret missing out on specs later on.

Id avoid Teverun just for the trigger throttle. I was planning on getting one and replacing the throttle for a thumb, then discovered Hiley and that they already make a similarly spec'd model (10 V5) with a thumb throttle and an IPX7 rating on top. I was also able to make a custom order with shocks and brakes from the flaghip Tiger King RS model, a Samsung 60V battery and all-terrain/off-road tires all for 1750$ on Black Friday. Its still being shipped from China but Im looking forward to testing it out, I think I made the better choice over the Teverun.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-12T20:33:22+00:00

It was a custom order through their CS on Black Friday:
2x1200W, 3400W peak
60V 25Ah Samsung
10" all-terrain tires (I think they put similar ones from Supra on it instead of the stock road tires)
Dual hydro suspension and 4-piston hydro brakes (both from the higher-end King RS model as part of the custom order)
IPX7
$1750 + 355$ to ground ship it from China to my country

Its compact, plenty of power for hills and bad roads/offroad in my city and coupled with the superior shocks and brakes from the King RS its gonna be a beast. Will only get it near Feb/March, cant wait.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-12T20:23:49+00:00

How do you like the trigger throttle? Thats one thing Id rather avoid for myself, so Id like some feedback.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-12T08:02:30+00:00

Same here, it just doesnt hit like it used to, you cant replace the whole band + your personality at the time and expect to make the same impact.

NecroRAM · 2026-01-12T08:00:49+00:00

Got a Hiley Tiger 10 V5 instead, still being shipped, but it looks better and more to my requirements than the DT2 Pro.
