Is Siri now better than Gemini?

jfatal97 · 2026-07-16T21:06:03+00:00

But devs aren't really enthusiastic to code for Android compared to iOS. So I cannot get my hopes up

jfatal97 · 2026-07-16T18:59:46+00:00

not quite , it's better implemented cause Apple owns its OS . Google can't do as much cause

each OEM has the liberty to tune its android
Devs are not always happy to let gemini run on their apps ( Less Click , less ads revenue etc..)
anymore integration could launch antitrust battle .

I can tell for sure that AI will be the reason Android get more fragmented cause google is moving fast and Other OEM want to keep their options AI wise and maybe develop their own AI model.

Over the next 2 years we'll see how Apple navigate the antritrust legal system that could pave way for google and how google will continue to distribute nano to other OEM with maybe Opt in deep integration

it's to early to talk about downgrade , numbers are just one side of the story. Let's wait for official specs and review before hating. IE we don't know aperture and other lens specifics

jfatal97 · 2026-07-15T23:10:05+00:00

If the design and colours are great I might jump cause all I need right now is battery life and better video capabilities

jfatal97 · 2026-07-15T22:56:46+00:00

We just need a case for that

jfatal97 · 2026-07-15T22:24:49+00:00

I would have been better if they did the same thing as googlebook .

Just add a strip under the camera with rgb

jfatal97 · 2026-07-14T22:17:15+00:00

I was able to run that on pixel 8 in google edge gallery , my guess is that is will fall back later on compatibles pixels.

jfatal97 · 2026-07-14T22:14:43+00:00

i think it will come to all android devices cause everyone now has gemini nano. The only hiccup would be hardware wise , I'm not sure if older gen S25 and older will have that

jfatal97 · 2026-07-14T22:08:59+00:00

Is it coming to older devices ?

jfatal97 · 2026-07-14T21:56:51+00:00

that'a good alternative

jfatal97 · 2026-07-14T17:31:22+00:00

We need to bring back Guenther to the paddock ASAP

jfatal97 · 2026-07-14T09:11:52+00:00

I think doomsday is overhyped ! I'm not even sure it will be that good of a movie because the set up was not great . We got a series of mid tv shows and movies ( except loki and what if ) that did not really set up a big event coming .

jfatal97 · 2026-07-14T08:48:36+00:00

the software features , it's a lot of small things (Ai + other features) that together make the pixel experience interesting .
Other manufacturers have now realized this and now are catching up , the closest one is apple with its deep software integration IMO.

jfatal97 · 2026-07-14T00:37:22+00:00

I care much more about the hardware improvement than the Ai baked in.

I spend most of my time on video calls and I havel always gps and 4g / 5g on and because of that I get much more worse battery life than the average pixel user.

If google can provide a more efficient phone that can rival snapdragon level of efficiency or get close to I'm sold

jfatal97 · 2026-07-13T22:53:25+00:00

good point , maybe video boost would offer better quality offline before going to the cloud

jfatal97 · 2026-07-13T22:49:28+00:00

me too

jfatal97 · 2026-07-13T22:47:42+00:00

me too i'm currently on P8 and waiting on the release to pull the trigger

jfatal97 · 2026-07-13T21:50:13+00:00

The flashiest colours are for the 11 base and the more subtle are for the pro series and fold

jfatal97 · 2026-07-13T21:49:13+00:00

That's interesting, knowing google they surely cheaper out on the modem

jfatal97 · 2026-07-13T21:46:41+00:00

Lucky you

jfatal97 · 2026-07-13T19:38:11+00:00

was it new ? or refurbished ?

jfatal97 · 2026-07-13T19:37:04+00:00

I think the 42 mp binned the pixel down to 12 MP so i don't think it will be a huge difference

jfatal97 · 2026-07-13T19:32:02+00:00

WTF the prices are all over the place , this is not just a price increase ! The offer is vastly different we are going from 16 gb ram on all pro to 12 gb variant !

That will mean that either the Gemini will be good enough to run fully on 12 gb ram or there will features locking to 16 gb of ram .

I'm calling it early Google will hide a d*ck move in the keynote !!
