2018 Google Pixel 3 and 3XL...😗🎉😵

[Mecisteus]

Lol at least we are better off than HW phones. No buy back price at all lol.

Did the buy back prices drop recently because of the US-HW relation? I did not check.

Oh no I got the Nova 3i for my MIL because of the 2 years warranty. Luckily, it is $250 only.

Got 6gb RAM on the Pixel means the world ending tomorrow liao.

Hahah cannot be another 4gb for the fourth year running right

I don't think it dropped lol. I think the prices got removed. Maybe no shops dare to buy them just in case they become dead weight. But that was in the letter morning and early afternoon. Not sure if they are willing to buy back now since they said support will still be there for existing devices.

I'm thinking of the next Pixel 4 XL.. But i have a feeling I'll be disappointed, like GoT season 8

Life is tough as a Pixel fan. We get disappointed every single year.

Think after the price increase for Google phones, the best for that year was the Nexus 6P. N6, Pixel, Pixel 2 and Pixel 3, all got issues or quirks..

Actually no leh bro, 6P got the boot loop issue also. I think I recently saw an article say they need compensate users of the 6P for this issue?

Actually just started using my iPhone X after quite a while on pixel 3 and s10 plus. Quite tempted to go for XS Max now haha

If you take selfies/wefies regularly, the front-facing camera on the XS totally cannot fight with Pixel 3's. Haha

If not for the camera I wouldn't have even considered the P3XL. Yeah, 6P had bootloop issue too.

for a recent newbie on Pixel 3, what are the current issues? not encountered any yet..

but a few observations from a multi generation iOS (still hold iphone 7 and Xr) switch over
1) audio on bluetooth headset sounds better on iOS (bose, westone bluetooth cable) when connected to Pixel 3 already show AAC (for bose) and aptX (for westone). Maybe placebo..cos been listening to iOS for so long. but they do sound different on the pixel 3.

2) the usb-c to audio adaptor is crap! ok maybe not... but the audio output from the adaptor is bad! so it can be anything along the audio chain degrading the audio

3) build quality is still a few notches from apple. when playing music at >50% volume, the glass back resonates/vibrates quite a bit. and the glass front and back meet the meta frame is still not seamlessly gapless.

All observation on Q beta 3.

so any good?
1) I actually prefer the screen on P3 (on natural setting) than iphone Xr. Although i read that not a single android app (even native google apps) support the wide gamut P3 screen (all just standard sRGB colors). wide gamut already support since oreo...but.. seems like neither google nor developers pushing for it.
2) camera is a joy to use and pics pop. But i miss the square mode on iOS
3) perfect size and weight distribution (i need to get a spigen thin fit soon, the google pixel fabric casing which came free is quite bulky)

Not good... then again i am on Q beta 3. so not fair to comment. it last teh day for me but levels gets nervous pass evening. so this is definitely not a chongster or clubbing phone.. assuming u don't top up during the day.

Actually bigger android (s10plus or p3XL) and smaller iphone like (iphone XS) is a good combo hahaha best of both worlds
