I'm seeing it as $600 now.... what is going on with tier-ed price reductions....


Did yours come with the fitbit?
No more fitbit promo, the promo is for pre order if i'm not wrong. When i placed my order, Amazon indicates free $30 gift card.

FAQs
1. What is the offer?

If you spend S$749 or more on Google Pixel 6A phone series (an Eligible Google Pixel Product) on Amazon.sg using your Citi Credit Card, a S$30 Amazon.sg Gift Card will be added to your Amazon account for use on a future purchase.

FYI ya... u buy at $600, so not $749 or more

Yeah that's the best that you can have.

But still the price drop is kinda shocking....

Ordered my 6 pro on Tuesday and got it today! Is it normal that the phone heats up quite a bit while I'm just doing the set-up? It was a little warmer than what I usually feel on phone...

Any one can share tips on what are some things I should check/look out for these few days in order to make sure my set is ok?

Normal. Its one of the selling point of a samsung fab tensor chip. Can warm up your cold hands during cold weather

Straight forward... Initiate the return, and they will send u an email on how to arrange for courier to collect back. Once they receive the phone they will process the refund. Need to wait 7 to 14 working days though

Anyways on a serious note, phone should not heat up so much after everything settles down. Initial set up takes up alot of cpu power, so it will heat up definitely. Give it 2 to 3 days to settle down

Google support is very bad. I purchased 2 P6P few days ago and instead of telling me the phone DO NOT have VoLTE enabled, they pushed the blame to everything from spolit SIM, bad network coverage, and carrier issues.

Their phones are catered for Red, orange and green only. The only way is to change carrier.

I regret I didn't check with this forum before buying instead on relying on youTube reviews.

So you mean that as long as using Red, Orange or Green then volte will work? Not TPG, not any of the MVNOs? Thanks

Not sure but the other 3, and all other MVNO under it, has got 3G spectrum to make 3G calls. So it works in a way. FYI many countries like the US are letting go of 3G...

And when you post on Google forum, these admin are so offensive. First they said I am buying in an unsuported country. Then they said the p6p does not sell here and thus unsuportted.

The call centre suport insist that there is VoLTE and put the blame on my SIM and coverage.

SOng boh I asked myself. Spending money to trouble myself when my $300 phone is working just as well. Sould have get the iPhone

Even on main telcos, VOLTE is not guaranteed. ( require BOTH phone and telco cooperation )
Telco will sometimes still ask to refer to their official supported handsets list.

My 2 cents, if die die want VOLTE, stick to main telcos.
For everybody else ( even MVNO which does have VOLTE ), be mentally prepared to have no support.

Google Pixel phones are traditionally not bundled with telco and not sold in high quantity. Thus there also is very little incentive for telcos to work with Google.
