Google Pixel 6 series

[garychengjw]

you might need a back up plan like s21 which is cheaper fr ah beng shops but those are not new sets

p6 is a flagship with top notch camera performance and 5yrs security updates 一分钱一分货

i wonder if any pixel experts know whether got any sales fr google here where e.g. US usually have black friday sales for pixels

Monitor for Amazon US/UK. iirc, there small price discount for last year pixel.

Anybody bought from JBHifi and shipped to Vpost and having issues with Vpost sending the item to Singapore? I'm facing some issues now and they're asking for an MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) else they will not be sending to Singapore

Aust customs issues already discussed many posts back

It depends. Based on your phone max charging capacity, u can buy an equivalent fast charger. Baseus and aukey are what I usually use.
Alternatively, if u have many phones and tablets, u can buy a multi port charging hub to charge every device at once. I use Siig 90W 10 charging hub. But don't expect fast charging if many devices at once. More for overnight charging and reduced clutter

Doesn’t look good for battery, 6 pro is rank even below pixel 5 and iPhone 12 Pro

IMO, battery test wait for 1 or 6 months later reviews.
Smartphones nowadays have to learn your daily usage for optimize for best battery life
Plus, early on everyone will be testing the phone extensively more so than normal, it might not reflect actual normal usage

Both phones have crazy good battery to be fair. Definitely more than 1 day battery.

Turn off 5g. its not an essential feature across all regions. wi-fi all day / 4g lte speeds can satisfied your needs for now. 120hz will oso significantly increase battery drain. turn it off too. wat tech ytubers dun tell you

I guess everyone have their preference. If this is called crazy battery life then what does P5 or even 13 Pro Max makes. Let see how gsmarena battery endurance work out, if top out at 88+ .. is called average at best.
