Phone preorders live on Google store.

Got $400 trade-in credit for pixel 5 and $200 in Google store credit for ordering pixel 7 pro.

Phones are up, looks like the Pros have $200 credit emailed after your order ships. So no pixel watch, but $200 off after the fact.

My Hazel 256gb Pro has been ordered.

So it is 650€ for the normal one vs 900€ for the pro and if you get a pro you get pixel buds pro for free (and nothing for the normal one). Not much reason to go for the normal one then I guess.

Oh, actually you do get the watch for free with the Pro and a 200 rebate or free buds for the non pro. It was worded a bit weirdly in German.

In Germany at least, yeah.



I'm sure Lens will translate that correctly.

So the Pro in Germany is either a Watch or Buds
Non-Pro is 220€ rebate on the watch or Buds

The "buy a 900€ phone, get a 430€ watch for free" deal in Germany is just amazing. I'll just sell my Pixel 6 Pro on Rebuy, sell the watch for a slight discount on Ebay and will have a new phone basically for free. Thanks, Google!

I always want to buy the new phone, but I skipped the 5 as it felt like a step back from the 4XL, so far the 7Pro vs the 6Pro seems to be the G2 chip and 5x zoom. Everything else looks basically the same? Face unlock sure, but I'm a fingerprint person anyway so that doesn't do much.

Yeah, that Tablet to Home thing looks slick. I'm all in when it comes out.

Sigh with a $200 credit I suppose I'll try out the Pixel Watch. I'm remain unconvinced it's going to be preferred in my rotation vs the GW5 Pro.

i've been following the phone and watch leaks but hadn't heard anything about the tablet. that was genuinely a nice little surprise for me. been thinking about getting a larger nest home display thing bc i use mine often. this feels like a natural upgrade to that.

Fitbit integration is the only thing. Otherwise the hardware looks inferior.

I wouldn't pay full price for it, but I'll check it out for $149 after credit.

I would recommend waiting for reviews to come out before putting down the money. I'm sure they'll be out before preorders end.

I am doing this indirectly because I bought a 6 Pro at launch and immediately returned it because it was too big, and now I'm getting a 7.

You are correct that it's too loving big.

Ah, thanks, I've only got Baby's First 100GB plan. Probably worth it to go up to the 200GB plan for the 3% off and just lose an extra $1/mo in Google Bucks(TM).

The Galaxy watch can, so I would say yes.

Good luck finding what you need since it's such a nebulous metric.

There's always going to be someone complaining about battery life due to some reason so social media is going to be inconsistent. Reviews aren't going to flush it out either.

You are basically going to have to wait like 6 months for a wide aggregation of reports.

I only had it on in the background, did they address any new thermal solutions (VAPOR CHAMBER COOLING, or however they might frame it as a selling point) or make mention of improved 5g reception?

It’s gotta be difficult to be on a stage and recognize your best selling product had some Serious Issues that need fixing.

P7 preorder is $399 for new Fi subscribers (requires 60 days on Fi; $499 for existing lines - shafted as usual). The 6A is still $349 for some reason but presumably will have to go down at some point.

Ordered the Lemongrass 7 and will get a clear case for it. I have a red iPhone for work so now I'll have Christmas phones!

May pick up some pixel buds with the store credit; we'll see if I want a new Chromecast instead.
