I'm very happy with the new phone... however

I feel its designed to entice iPhone users… apart from the camera bump at the back and the software, the build feels like an iPhone

Nice… How do you like it so far?

Sadly they didn’t do free watches this year… not that I use it… I love it so far and I want to go and test the camera more…

I prefer the build of the iPhone but the software of an android so I got the best of both worlds now.

It’s more customisable and more features so I prefer it …the iPhone is more user friendly … I think you’d enjoy it but I would go to the store and test it out first. I feel the camera is much better.

I see that phones aren’t getting any cheaper :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Sorry I mean it worked out around 350 less than the price I told you. It’s expensive but not as expensive as iPhones.

Sounds tempting to switch but I’m really used to the ease of an iPhone plus my cell phone provider doesn’t sell the Pixel.
Also I own an Apple Watch

Yes that makes sense. If youve already invested a lot into their apps etc. I didn’t like androids until I found the pixel.

Also it’s down to preference. My friend doesn’t like the photos taken on the android. It has to be iPhone.

I’m glad that you’ve found a phone that you really like.
I hear great things about the Pixel

I don’t know if my Samsung is designed to feel like an iPhone, but I do love it.

I have bought into the ecosystem of Apple mainly due to convenience

Probably be the number one reason I give if someone was to ask

Spent my early years messing around with building computers and running hooky software

These days all I want is everything to talk to each other and not having to deal with technical issues

I like that I can pretty much guarantee my phone will not outlive the updates they provide

For a couple of years I changed my phone for the latest models but not bothering any more as the user experience differs very little

Although must say the 48 mega pixel camera is appealing

A couple months ago i bought a Samsung S24+…so far i like it. I traded in a Moto z4 and got $200 off but it was still $800. But it works better. I have an iphone SE for a lifeline phone but i never use it, it’s too small for my fingers (the keyboard and icons are all too small…and i don’t understand the interface anyway). I just prefer Android cuz it’s what I’m used to).

I have a Pixel 8 Pro and love it. I smashed my S22 ultra. Used to use both phones. Samsung does the best calendar app.
