Any case friendly good tempered glass to recommend me ??!
If you don't mind cutout then ringke's tempered glass has good fit and great oleophobic coating. Plus it's cheap and can get from shopee/Lazada.

If you want no cutout get whitestone dome EA from Amazon US. But FYI this one got very slim black border but won't affect the display real estate significantly. Makes the SP look more seamless.

Got one more recommendation i haven't personally tested but bought for other models from taobao (seems like for different markets, cannot find for pixel on taobao). It's called magic John and it's the easy dust free application type. Go google it and you'll be able to find but more expensive than whitestone. But from experience on other phone model, the glass feels very premium and got great fit.

My camera app got very bad shutter speed, startup very blurry, need to wait 3-4 seconds or shake the phone to focus.
I uninstalled the updates, clear cache and data, disable/enable camera app, restart phone, reinstall camera updates. Now ok liao.

If not, I see pple say is hardware issue, RMA get another set, no issues.

I am having this issue as well. If never use the camera for awhile, startup will be blurry then need to wait a few seconds. Are you going to send it in to service center?

Have you tried to factory reset first?

You shake the phone can liao. :s13:

The problem came back after clearing camera cache and storage. Oh well, more shaking.
Lazy to return to service center, no time.



Anyone knows what's the RMA procedure?

Singapore no such thing as RMA, only ask you to bring to CDTI for warranty servicing.

Means only repair, no replacement? How's the process ah? Did it take very long?
I haven't had to bring it for servicing yet both on my P7P and P8P, depending on the severity of the issue I'm guessing it should take around a week or so.

Maybe experienced forumers can add on.

Thanks, I contacted Pixel support, they re-direct me to CDTI too. Emailed them, see how.

People who posted about the camera unfocus issue.

Actually seems to be software issue, have you tried to factory reset as a last resort before sending it to CDTI?

Thanks for the recommendations... I don't like those with black borders and am looking at the ringke ones now

One annoying thing about P8P camera is the auto macro switching. Sometimes when I was scanning QR or doing some Google Translation via apps, the camera keeps switching between macro and normal modes. I had to turn off the auto macro setting. Anyone also facing same issue?

Yeah sometimes the macro mode activation is quite aggressive.
