    Do you have Location Services turned on? If so, have you experienced bad battery life?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 11:05 PM PDT

    Now days in Android 10 and so on I have not seen greatly batter drain when using location services. Android phones have been really bad for using location services in past. I remember when had to use maps I turned LS on and after the navigation had to turn it Off just for my battery. I'm using an OnePlus 7t and it survives well using LS daily.

    Returning my Pixel Buds (2020)

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 08:41 AM PDT

    Just in case anyone is in the same situation as I am, here's my experience with the Pixel Buds:

    Bought two pairs (black & white) for my S.O. and myself, directly from Google, they took about a week to get here. We were both super excited since we are both pixel phone owners.

    Then we were hit with the audio skipping issue at exactly 1 min 50 seconds. Nothing would fix it, not factory resetting or bluetooth cache deleting or left bud first, etc.

    Called Google for a refund and they didn't even push an exchange, they just said "yeah ok so I can process the refund for you".

    It's kind of disappointing that this is such a wide-spread issue (a LOT of threads on reddit and other sites show this) with a product that costs so much. I've had much better/stable connection with 20-30 dollar buds.

    If anyone has a good working pair then yeah stick to them but otherwise beware of the 1:50 issue, it isn't fixable every time.

    Edit: grammar

    With rumors surrounding an upcoming Pixel 5, what is there actually in the device to actually entice a purchase over any other phone?

    Posted: 31 Aug 2020 06:30 AM PDT

    So I wanted to setup this post to have as sort of a discussion and gather others opinions on the potential (and most likely) Pixel 5 from google. I also wanted to state that I am currently using a Pixel 4 myself (and wanted to discuss my disappointments.)

    Since the release of the pixel they have had 2 defining features. The stock Android experience, and arguably the best camera upon release each generation. They have never toted the best specs, and sometimes even left out some newer hardware, but the camera gave it a reason to be used. Now with leaks surrounding the Pixel 5 it looks like they will be downgrading the specs, and rather than at least having flagship level processors it is obvious that they are moving away from that. Leaks also highly speculate at a plastic back, a back mounted finger print scanner (I personally grew to like face unlock, but am disappointed in not at least having an in screen!), and with these being out of the picture I would not be surprised at a lack of wireless charging. These all seem like a MASSIVE downgrade from the past products offered. However, none of this stacks up to the letdown that the cameras will be.

    Rumors are agreeing that they will stay with the same camera hardware that they have been using since the Pixel 2, a massive disappointment. With what Google has achieved through software imagine the insane potential they have if they now upgraded the hardware and paired it with the software! On top of this, by downgrading the processor there is no way that the software can work it's magic as well as the pixel 4, and with the pixel 4 having guaranteed updates for 2 more years it should outperform. In addition to this supposedly they will take away the telephoto lens, and replace it with an ultra wide. I am all for an ultra wide, but it is time that google has a triple camera setup and ADDS the ultra wide, not replace the telephoto with it. With all the camera rumors coming around it seems like one of the only 2 reasons to buy a Pixel device, and arguably the biggest reason, is now dead.

    If these current rumors turn to be true upon release I will personally not be getting a new device from Google. I am honestly fine with a mid range processor, but the letdown of a premium design and hardware, as well as the catastrophic letdown of the cameras lead there to be little reason to desire a Pixel device.

    I genuinely want to have a discussion to see what peoples opinions are if the Pixel 5 matches these rumors. What do you think makes it a considerable device, what are you personally disappointed in, and current Pixel 4 owners would you consider upgrading - (downgrading?) - ?
