Can I check, what counts towards storage under Google Photo? I have already chosen to save under lower pic quality but it seems storage is still being used and counted towards the 15Gb entitlement?
And those pictures that you download, saved screen savers etc that you choose to upload/sync with google photos, does it count towards storage as well?
Thanks!

If not wrong even the unlimited storage was stopped after Pixel 5 series.

I totally missed this announcement.

If you have a Pixel 5 device or earlier, your current backup options and benefits remain unchanged. Photos and videos backed up in Storage saver quality (previously named High quality) from your Pixel 2 through 5 devices will continue to receive unlimited free storage. However, as of June 1, 2021 any new photos or videos you back up from other devices in Storage saver quality will count toward your Google Account storage.

Holy cow :s14:

This qc really 不可以...
They should make it like Lego to allow removal and fitting back if the thing is not permanently glued down leh

Even Nokia phones also much more durable, now I'm scared to clean it thoroughly as I work in high risk areas :frown:

So those without 5g plan now, how do you know that the p6 you received is not a dud? Components like camera, wireless charging, dead pixels, you can easily check and test., But 5g no chance to test drive. Then 2023 you get a 5g plan and you realize eh wtf my fone cannot 5g g g g gg

How likely is it that all the hardware in your phone is working ok, but you got a 5g-related factory defect?
5G isn't a consideration to me at all. I don't believe our networks will switch from LTE to 100% 5G in the near future.

i highly doubt all will switch to 5g in the very near future
it benefits the service providers cos they can charge a premium for those that want to be onboard 5g
and they can have a higher load capacity - Cost less to them + Cost more to us

but to consumer 5g currently is excessive.. we unable to fully utilize the bandwidth and speed given
and 5g has more range issue than the faster speed it gives
my guess is there is a high chance we will skip past 5g

Another sharing - just received my bellroy case. its a good fit and doesnt add alot of bulk. feels premium too with the leather feel.

but compared to my spigen rugged armor, its less protective. spigen covers the camera bump alot more. and it has a raised front lip to protect the screen.

How does the leather handle wet hands/water? Does it stain?

Anyone here owns the Pixel Stand 2nd gen? Does the built in fan run at full speed when wirelessly charging a non-Pixel phone? Thanks!

i bought the "basalt" color, which is pretty dark, so i dont think there will be any issues with stains.

and I'll see what happens if i get any water/oil smudges on it. but normally i dry my hands when handling my phone.
I had the terracotta one but after about 2 months the case started to look so dirty that I just had to change it.
Hopefully you'll have better luck as you've got a darker colour.
I've really liked other Bellroy products but this one was really disappointing.

Hey guys,
I've just upgraded from Pixel 5 (US set) to Pixel 6 (SG).

Not sure any of you came across this issue - whenever I try to use the Gpay Autofill option to complete my credit card payment I keep getting error: This card can't be verified at the moment. This applies to all websites and apps like Lazada / shopee.

I've tried to remove and re-add all the credit cards into gpay but still facing the same error.

Go to Google's Pay website (I think it's pay.google.com). Select the correct Payment profile (the drop-down option next to your profile picture on top right). Then click on the tab Payment Methods to verify the cards. I think you can only verify the same card once a day for security reasons.

Thanks for the advice.
I don't see any option to 'verify' tho..
