saw that too! that's around $100 discount from the SG Google Store right?
hmm thinking of importing from Amazon US - are there gonna be any compatibility issues? thinking of 256GB

but if send for repair... would they replace with a 128GB local set?

went ahead and bought my Pixel 6 Pro 128GB Stormy Black from Qoo10 instead!
S$1067 but after store coupon, Q-money, Q*coins, etc. - not too bad.

oh well. hope it'll be a solid replacement to my Pixel 3XL. haha still excited for Pixel 6a and Pixel 7 Pro

now to look for TGSP (maybe I'll try Whitestone for once) or maybe it's Hydrogel this time round? Do we still have those spray coating types?
will be looking to get a Moment Case again hehe

Top up $300 can get s22 ultra 256gb...

ohhh... my final cost is under S$930 with the qmoney + qcoins...
I still prefer the Pixel UI/UX + Pixel Camera... haha

if not Pixel, I may have gone iPhone (but the thought of transferring WhatsApp over is lol)

Any deals on Pixel 6? Prefer a flat screen instead of the curve screen.

Saw sometime back in this thread (around End April/May) that Pixel was on sale in Google store. Not sure if it's SG. Does it happen frequently?

WhatsApp officially supports Android to iOS migration now. No need to muck around with 3rd party apps.

Personally I wouldn't move to iOS though. Too many quirks

I saw qoo10 hot deal shop selling the 128gb black one for SGD 777. I don't have any experience with them so better to ask other members if they have any feedback

oh neat! that's super neat!

and totally agreed on the quirks - still not a fan of the UI and UX
yea, I'm only using Apple for their Macbooks (and iPads lol)

Congrats on the new phone

Please share your experience once you receive the device. Quite interested in the experience of a fellow 3XL user jumping to 6 Pro.

I am interested in the Pro for telephoto lens but worried about size increase and curved edges. Not to mention the price/performance dynamic.

Oh wow thanks for this! Is there any large difference between US set and Local set, other than the warranty?
Hmm I saw review stating shipment arrive between 2 to 3 weeks. Think that's okay with me.

Edit: Yes I went to buy from that shop! Hope it arrives fast. thanks for informing!

I bought yesterday. they marked it for shipping this morning!
-fingers crossed-

based on the thread, seems like US set are offered local warranty support but best to check with distributor!
which one did you get in the end?

Hey, this is not a sus account (^ erniechua could attest to that). We have been looking through the posts about the event for awhile, so we thought of coming up here to address those who have not received their invites.

Anyway just abit of background and to manage expectations, the event is not officially/directly organised by Google. We are from an agency, but we pride ourselves as Pixel fans too. Hence this initiative since we did not have such in-person events before, and we thought it would be nice to have everyone meeting f2f and mingle around.

We also have a social media presence (IG: teampixel.sg); garychengjw has interacted with our moderator before. Feel free to follow us for the latest updates!

@tkc2263 @wilflare why don't you guys PM @lwkd1088 to check? I confirmed my attendance with him even though I didn't get a confirmation email in the end, he told me that I'm registered & they will send me an email reminder closer to the date. =P
