Still using or already changed to pixel 6? 😬

Same here, using jap set and don't find the sounds loud or annoying.
Personally have tried playing around with some modded gcam apk, the sound can be disabled, but most modded gcam apks are for non google phones so there are some weird behaviors when using.

Have to say the battery life is really good, sometimes make me think is the battery spoilt, stayed at 100% for so long.
Still using. Think android phone hard to find 1 with such good battery life. Like 10hour sot ..

For me, so far so good. Of course there is some shortcomings from the sd765g, like sometimes can be slow etc. But in exchange for the battery life, all is good :s13:

Im still using the default gcam, dont find the shutter sound annoying for now. Using default one at least will be constantly updated.
No need bells and whistles. still a capable phone that offers a very good battery life

Battery life good meh?

45-60 min of YT or browsing can already bring down battery life by 10%.

Anyway I give up battery life on Pixel phones.

I just do multiple and adhoc charging at home or office throughout the day.

Battery life on each phone varies, depending on your settings and apps you're using

Based on reviews, better than most midrange phones but no where near flagships from Samsung and definitely not iPhone.
was considering 5a or 6. i thought pixel camera very good so videos should be on par with the best?

Nope. Before Pixel 4a , their video was just above average.
Don't get me wrong, the video quality isn't bad. It just isn't one the best.
Even for photography, other vendors have caught up already.

Why would you not send it back if it's under warranty ?

Trying my luck here, seems my 5A is bricked out of sudden and from googling, seems like no solutions.

Suddenly black screen, like cannot on and when connected to PC, showing as QUSB_BULK_CID: XXXXX:XXXXX
XXXX seems to be some mac or serial numbers.

Kindly help to share if any of you faced the same issue before and know how to resolve it.

Thank you.
