Right now I'm using the S24 Ultra, and my Pixel 8 Pro is sitting at home. I don't actually carry two phones on me at the same time.

Go to macrumors site, lots of people have multiple phones with one phone number, they SIM swap often. I've asked and they say one week they want an iPhone to use, and then another week maybe want the Google Pixel experience for the best portrait photos, and then some weeks they want the S-Pen...

Few photos I took last night walking in the park:

Lots of people dual wield 2 phones. I read other forums where they have an iPhone, a Galaxy phone and a Google phone.

Put my SIM back in my P8P to get that beautiful stock Android feeling again, and man I just love the Pixel UI and feel in hand with the rounded comfortable corners, etc... But why can't Google build us a true flagship Pixel to compete with the Galaxy S24 Ultra? The battery life on my Pixel 8...

Did a full wipe reset AGAIN, to a fresh install of the latest monthly update April 2024, Android 14. Set up everything from scratch again. And I have to say Material You and the way the UI is really funky and silly, but also very fluid and pretty smooth, it is a great phone no doubt. But then...

Yeah Android beta's are not daily drivers. I typically know that and shouldn't wipe and factory reset my phone and install a beta, but I did LOL. Even though the S24U is my typical daily phone now, I wanted to test the Android 15 beta on my Pixel 8 Pro, as I love the Pixel experience. I...

I know I sound like a broken record, but the non-reflective matte screen on the S24 Ultra, really is a game changer for me, it looks so dang good, that I can't get another phone unless it has a similar type display tech. Sure hope the Pixel 9 Pro has this same type of screen.

Thank you, sorry didn't know there was a dedicated thread. Hmm seems I don't have access to that thread. I click it but says I don't have permission?

I'm only on the second episode of the show, but do they explain who or what causes the nuclear Holocaust? Was it the expected WW3 between the U.S. and USSR at the time? Or something else? And if there were was nuclear war, wouldn't only the big cities and suburbs be destroyed, and not...

Totally agree on Planetside next gen type game seems a no brainer.

Saw someone post a screen shot of their homescreen on XDA, and wow, this looks crazy. brouwerchris Stock S24 U , NO ROOT : Reev Pro icons One UI Home , with GoodLock ThemePark

Never understood the point in pre-ordering a video game? For what purpose? To give a billion dollar game company your money extra fast and early before real reviews or first hand impressions. Uh no thanks. I could see if it's a start up new indie game company, yeah then it helps them. But...

Anyone use Nova Launcher on the Pixel 8 series? Is it as smooth and fluid as stock? Reason I ask, I tried Lawnchair14 recently, and it did not feel as smooth, was a little janky. Was wondering if Nova was smooth?

I wish Google would add a bit more customization to the UI. Like icon packs and changing the Google search widget. Thing is, I've tried third party launchers and they seem to ruin the experience of the smoothness of the default launcher. For some reason the animations in other launchers don't...

Thanks just signed up for the alpha. When is this supposed to start?

Is this game only available on the Epic GS? If so [H]ard pass until its on Steam.

Word is Android 15 fixes the laggy microstutters for good. There's been some recent articles about this. Battery life has been an issue on Pixel's since the Nexus days. It's always bad, to mediocre at best. I will say my S24 Ultra is super smooth always fluid. And battery life on the S24U...

I really hope Google adopts that same screen technology as on the S24 Ultra; the non-reflective, matte finish display. It really is a game changer. When using other phones besides my S24U, they look so shiny distracting, like looking at a mirror.

I'm the exact same. I don't give a crap about having the best loot or gear in the game I just want good upgrades but it doesn't really matter to me. And the perfect class build? I don't care I just put together what I find most fun. I finished Diablo 4 last year with my main character and...

That's a good explanation.

I'm a super casual player, and this is news to me, but none to you pros here. What's the deal with seasonal characters? Why do they make us create and start a brand new character, and then need to level up to max and gear up from scratch all over again, every few months? That seems like such...

Seriously, does the new Ray Tracing on an OLED monitor, make a noticable difference? Or is it a minor nothing burger?

I seriously do not understand the gameplay of this new mode? What is the objective? What's the point? You don't have a Class you just run around sprinting doing God's knows what? I thought WoW was an MMORPG? PVE storyline driven group content to team up as wizards and barbarians...

Tried it for all of 60 seconds, before logging off and thinking WTF was that? The weirdest thing I've seen in WoW, needing to create a new character, bit no class really? And just run around sprinting to get some bullcrap stuff, for what exactly? What's the goal?

Since I've been SIM swapping for the past week, a few things stand out between the S24U and P8P -Battery life on the S24U is SIGNIFICANTLY better -Network connection and Bluetooth is also noticablly better. Areas that used to be poor signal, I get great on the S24U, and Bluetooth connects...

I did keep the S24U, but having a hard time making a final decision, been SIM swapping daily for about a week now. The S24U is clearly the better built, better designed, with way better [H]hardware phone. Fact. But... There is just some special magic with the Pixel phone, I can't seem to give...

So I've had my SIN back in the Pixel 8 Pro all weekend, and did that very minimal looking homescreen, and it felt so good, the device itself with the rounded corners, and more narrow candybar shape is very comfortable to hold, and UI just moves so fluid and all the little bounces and sweet...

There's a new update out, I have not received it, but Reddit saying it makes the phone even smoother super fluid fast; https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS24Ultra/s/lZ3yKsyVBD

Will the RTX-5080 be $1800 and the RTX-5070 $1300? Ugh

I sure hope this rumored $2500 price for the upcoming RTX-5090 isn't correct? Said to be 60% to 70% faster than the current RTX-4090; https://www.pcgamesn.com/nvidia/geforce-rtx-5090-performance
