I'm using singtel 5g, 7pro. No connection issue. But battery drain very fast. Maybe iphone 14pro is better.

It's 5G, 14 pro will drain equally fast.

It's like history repeats itself
I recall everyone had the same battery anxiety when 4G initially launched in SG.

Tensor isnt anywhere near as power efficient as apple's offerings over the past few years. Can't really be helped until google stops using samsung fabrications.

First time using a pixel phone and I realised that I cannot use past (other models) charging head to charge. ( Or usb to usb c wire) any solutions for this ? They can't use third party items? Saw some post on ugreen chargers are those the only ones available ?

the given cable that comes with the pixel phone is a usb c to usb c cable.

You can still use a usb A to usb c cable with a charger to charge the phone but it will be charging slower than a usb c to usb c cable.

U can still use other brands of chargers out there (Baseus, Ugreen, Aukey etc)

If you want to be on safe side, buy the official google charger from courts or challenger:

It's much cheaper than buying from official SG google store.

Hi, anyone using Circles.Life eSIM with their Pixel 7 Pro? My phone is intermittently not able to make calls or receive calls since Jan. Emailed Google support and they told me to keep waiting for a software update. After Feb update, problem still didn't get resolved so they told me to go to CTDI service centre. I went to CTDI, they changed the motherboard, but the issue is still there. Then CTDI tried to help me debug - seems the physical SIM slot works but the eSIM doesn't.

Trying to figure out if the problem is with Circles.Life (should I just change carrier), or is it with the eSIM slot, or is it just that Google broke the eSIM software such that it doesn't work with some carriers anymore. Anyone also using Circles.Life eSIM? Life without being able to make or receive normal calls is super difficult...

Check here, someone seems to have a similar problem as you.
Google has been testing esim features in beta, you might want to give the beta a try ?

Had the same problem here with P6a which I never had with P3a XL, in the end had to junk half my stock of USB A to C cables. I later read somewhere that current Pixel models only allowed charging from PD (Power Delivery) specs chargers & cables and a lot of the cables I owned didn't meet the specs. Now I am using Vention cables & chargers (after comparing prices on Shopee )

My 7 pro camera pictures suddenly came out upsize down. Any solution?

If your camera have the framing hints active (screenshot below) then during photo taking you will see a '+' sign, when this + sign appear in orange and level "below" the original white '+' target it will appear normal.

If the orange '+' level above the white + sign the photo will be upside down

 

[TakKiu]

So i turn it off?

 

[Yongkit]

No difference on or off for my phone.

It is personal preference and I prefer on because I can control better the photo level when taking photo.

If i take a picture of my doc on the table, the pic will come out tombalek. Unless you position the phone at 45°.
Why google come out with this shyt...
