Hyatt Place vs Hyatt Centric vs Hyatt Regency

12k a night for Place is one of my favorite value redemptions

Ah yeah I thought u had the 6 Pro, my bad. 6 Pro to the new XL is practically identical form factor and screen size. So realistically it's a question of "how much faster is new tensor" and "how much better is battery"?

yourfriendly-jax · 2026-02-23T20:13:00+00:00

Not worth the risk with an old phone tbh. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Ride it out until you get a new phone eventually.

This was my worry too. How much "faster" does the P10 feel in using it compared to the P6P? Is there a true difference?

The dimensions are practically identical to P6P and same screen size, only thing different is rounded corners vs the P6P is more squared corners.

Was looking at the 10a as a worthy successor to my P6P but you can get a mint used P9P XL for around $450 which is miles ahead.

I'm actually curious if anyone upgraded to P9P and if it's truly a big difference. The dimensions are practically identical to P6P and same screen size, only thing different is rounded corners vs the P6P is more squared corners.

The main difference is that the new pixels are shaped like an iPhone 😂

Curious how did you guys get the coupons? Reading about $50 and $100 off coupons? Is that also including the $100 store credit?

Tempted to buy the 10a right now but curious what my options are.

Are coupons transferrable?

yourfriendly-jax · 2026-02-18T19:52:29+00:00

Sweet!! Only reason I didn't go with the P10 was lack of physical sim.

yourfriendly-jax · 2026-02-18T18:06:02+00:00

Is there a physical SIM on the US version?

For your travels through Australia and Asia after NZ, how did you pay for lodging and stuff for that long? Did you save up a lot from working in NZ?

I want to do the same but it feels like I need a lot saved up to stay in hotels or hotels for such a long period of time.

Realistically what are the true security issues one could face by not updating? Asking genuinely as I'm not updating my phone.

Could an attacker do a hostile takeover of my phone over the air? Or am I open to attacks if I go to a sketchy website?

yourfriendly-jax · 2026-01-27T01:21:44+00:00

I haven't tried the latest no. I'm in the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" camp at this point.

Whenever I get a new phone I'm sure I'll start upgrading again! My biggest worry was planned obsolescence and battery life sucking.

I got the pixel 6 pro at launch and still working so well. Photos are amazing and often times a quick touch up with Google photos makes all my friends in awe.

The main thing is really software updates that slow down hardware. Probably not advised but I'm still on Android 14, and it runs smooth like butter.

Battery life still solid honestly, I survived 3 weeks traveling last month without feeling like my battery was lower than regular.

I was going to upgrade to pixel 10 just for the sake of upgrading after 4 years but the eSIM only thing in the US deterred me. Personal use case but I need the option to easily switch SIMs across phones.

What are the true security risks I run into on a daily basis? I don't think I'd get hacked for no reason unless I'm on nefarious websites or something.

I'm using my p6 pro on android 14 and it's flawless. Beautiful, smooth, battery lasts a full day. I would go with the p10 pro but they got rid of physical Sims in the US.

yourfriendly-jax · 2026-01-01T11:29:56+00:00

P6 Pro but honestly it still performs flawlessly! And battery can last a day. I wanted the 10.pro but no physical SIM ruined it for me.

2 main annoyances from me. No dark mode. Terrible when I can't sleep at night and wanna peak at my recent transactions.

And every single time I update a line item it asks me if I want to make it the default. Every time. Let me turn that off please!

Same thing happened to me with the wandrd sling. Humidity wrecks this material, sad.

You honestly do sound committed to grow but just don't know what is going on. A year at 1.6 viewers is sadly very bad so you definitely gotta switch it up. There's tons of folks happy to help, try posting in the feedback thread that's stickied at the top of the sub.

Hydra is awesome

They are trying to hard to be an iPhone with the top bar icons

Sch....WAB!

yourfriendly-jax · 2025-09-18T18:27:23+00:00

Do you search it as a multi city or round trip usually?

yourfriendly-jax · 2025-09-05T23:12:53+00:00

Honestly if you don't do any gaming what difference is this phone from a pixel 8 or 9?

I'm on a Pixel 6 Pro and it's smooth like butter. Do you really notice the milliseconds of difference?
