Back to iOS for me Liao.
Used the pixel as primary phone for few days and decided to sell it.
Heng sold away without incurring too much loss.
Reasons for selling:
- Getting OTPs on iOS and having them auto-fill just feels a lot smoother and seamless.
- When dining out and scanning a QR to order or pay, Apple Pay pops up right away. On Pixel, you usually have to type in your card details.
- Videos on the Pixel don’t look quite as smooth while recording.
- There is no counter on the app icons to show.
YMMV.
Just FYI.
1. Pixel phones does this too automatically for OTP. Usually it's implemented from the app, scanning your messages will automatically fill it in. Alternatively, if you use Gboard, the OTP in your messages will auto be suggested (auto copied to keyboard).
2. It's the same for Gpay. You just need to ensure you integrate your bank's app with Gpay and you'll be able to QR Scan without credit card details.
3. True for most people. But if you use Video Boost on Pixel, the quality is a jump ahead of even the Iphone.
4. Doesn't have it. Only shows a dot. Other launchers have it though if you're willing to try.
