Pixel 3a sales will be good (in the US only) and it will be perceived as good only because of the price point. Doubt it will be due to the headphone jack in itself. Haha

Hahah yeah it'll probably be good in the US. Not sure they have like third party retailers like us, if they do then the sales probably suck as well. But one thing for sure is they do not have any markup! :mad:

Hopefully p4 video will improve and no more notch.

Hahah I seldom video much but still hope it can be improved. And hole punch display probably but I still wish for the hole punch to be in the middle to look more symmetrical and not to the left or right :s13:

I think I'll prefer hole punch but preferably in the middle lol. Just realised another issue on the beta. With the gestures, the auto rotate button doesn't appear when I rotate the phone around to watch video lol. Need to manually tap the full screen button for now haha

Hope p4 can record 4k 60fps instead of just 30fps.

Notch wise or cut-outs i prefer center also. Same for camera placement on back.

just power on the new out of the box p3 from singtel, the firmware is from sept 5th 2018
humm.. singtel's stock is very old stock? or all shipping pixels is with original sept 5th 2018 firmware?

Edit: after 2 min search on google, per the serial number, 8Axxxxxx, it is manufactured 2018 October. no wonder singtel got good deal on p3. they need to clear stocks!

Yeah bro. It was mentioned a few days ago.

Hahah I think centered is the nicest lah. Looks more symmetrical and won't block until any thing. The one on the S10/S10+ had to shift the icons on the top right to the left alittle to accommodate the hole punch which looks ugly IMO.

u can check on singtel website, on combo 3, p3 is 48, p3a is 68 both 64gb

Oh really. I didn't know about this.

I guess Google already dropped price when distributing P3 to Singtel since it is an older model.

am i understanding it correctly?
updating the firmware is a "diff" based update? meaning it does not just download the latest image and update but will d/l the "diff" updates and upgrade sequentially?

It does not download the latest update as you mentioned. It'll download in sequence based on the month of release :)

Hahah from time to time the P3 price does change on singtel website. Just not sure if this is a permanent or temporary change. If it's a permanent one then it's a no brainer to go for P3 instead of 3A.
