My mom got one but she upgraded from a 3 so it’s a big improvement. I got an 8 a couple month ago and see no reason to upgrade. Most of the changes seem to be AI related with very minor hardware improvements.

I wish more creators were on nebula. I would like to support them on patron but $5+ a month per channel adds up really quickly.
I have, it works better on Fedora than PopOS or ubuntu. There’s actually a fix for the 17 inch version of my laptop in the main kernel, but it explicitly mentions the full model number so doesn’t apply to my 13 inch version. I spent a long time trying and failing to figure out how to build a kernal with a patch for my model.
I switched to Linux on a laptop of mine because an update to windows caused it to not boot.
Now I get to deal with my keyboard backlight not working, sometimes the keyboard freezing on resume, my Bluetooth not connecting on the first try, and my wifi sometimes not working, but it boots fine every time.
When I dropped my pixel 5a the screen looked like a TV in a horror film. Were they lying for warranty purposes? Otherwise I can’t see a reason not to tell a repair shop what actually happened.
Someone needs to convince US Banks of this
My first smartphone was the Motorola Droid 2 and it could easily be over clocked from 600 MHz to 1200 MHz. The dynamic overclocking even helped the battery life. I miss the keyboard, it was great for playing old video games on emulators.
The Motorola Droid 2 was my first smartphone and I sorely miss that slide out keyboard with dpad.
I sadly became one of those people last year. I had every intention of keeping my Pixel 5A for a long time but when faced with a $250 repair bill I bought a used pixel 6 for $240 instead of fixing it. I do regret it because the battery life and antenna on the 6 is awful compared to the 5a.
If only google would stop blocking display out on pixels.
Unfortunately the 5a was the last pixel with a headphone jack.
I had an Eee PC. It was very slow and the poor resolution of the screen made it hard to use.
I’m using posteo with Geary on linux and K-9 on Android.
They’re not on the play store currently. You can get them from Github or through the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repo.
Calculator: I’m using the one that came with grapheneos, which I think is the AOSP calculator. It meets all of my simple calculator needs
Camera: GrapheneOS camera for qr codes and videos, because the modded gcam app (not FOSS) I use doesn’t support either. I like that it shows you the qr link after you scan it instead of instantly opening it. It doesn’t connect to WiFi if you scan one though it will show you the name and password.
Calendar: Fossify Calendar. It’s a fork of simple calendar. It has my favorite calendar interface and works with Davx5 to sync with CalDAV servers.
Will there be any battery improvements? My Pixel 6 could use some (I miss the battery life of my 5a, RIP).
On my Kobo Libra 2 the battery only drained with wifi on. It won’t charge over 76% for some reason though.
Is your feeling based on the fact that you can only get driving directions offline (not even walking!)?
The grapheneos camera shows you the link when you scan a qr code and then its up to you to decide to go to the site or not. It makes scanning qr codes safer then apps that automatically open scanned links.
If you’re in the US and on a carrier that supports stir/shaken and voLTE, Carrion can block (or silence) calls that fail verification. It can also block calls from a block list.
