Luchadork posted:The problem with the battery life discussion also comes down to how much you use the phone. The 5x battery is perfectly fine for me, but 1.5 to 2 hours of SOT is my norm. I'm not on my phone constantly. The battery is Good (especially considering the price paid for the device). Alternatively, there are ever increasingly larger capacity and smaller form factor portable battery packs for cheap.

Sell both and buy a 5x for $200 bucks.

galahan posted:So if I want to wait for the new nexus, but my phones screen is shattered, battery degraded, and power button is jammed.... Just did this exact thing. Dropping $250 on a phone with a smaller form factor to replace my shattered Nexus 6 seems like a steal when the replacement glass and digitizer costs nearly $200.

Leaving your phone out in public while you sleep is inviting it to be taken. Hell, having your phone out while walking around, depending on where you live, is inviting it to be taken.

Jerk McJerkface posted:Try talking for two seconds on an NJT quiet car. You'll get some khaki wearing polo shirts middle aged white guy to yell at you before you finish one sentence. Once a packed train with no room a poor lady with a kid got stuck standing in the isle on a quiet car and the kid started fussing. After no less that five seconds some guy started yelling at her to get the kid off the quiet car. I was standing between her and the guy, who was sitting down, and asked him to please calm down and leave her alone, the train was packed, and she was doing the best she could, there was no where for her to go. The guy got a little irate and yelled at her more, ignoring me, so I got in the guys face and told him to leave her alone or I'd shut him up. He looked at me, and I said, "you piece of garbage I hope that awful kid didn't ruin your commute" He kept his fat gob shut for the rest of the ride.

Taffer posted:On Android at least, you can always get back a bitmap which is just a raw image. You can do whatever the gently caress you want with on literally any android device including the very oldest ones that existed. There really is no excuse for that. Eh, when you start to factor in all the different hardware like dual cameras, different supported resolutions, ability to not blow up having a big rear end bitmap in memory, etc, it was probably a lot faster for them to poo poo out a screenshot app than to spend money on doing it right.

I can only assume the extra system partition on the Pixel will take up a good chunk of that 32gb, which was my main concern.

At about 12gb free on my 32GB 5x, I don't really see 32GB being super viable on the Pixel. 4k video, pictures, double system partition size, and caching music and podcasts due to Fi. The extra $100 is worth not having to worry about storage at all in the future, given I have no idea what new cool poo poo will be out in the next 2-3 years.

You apply for financing through Synchrony Bank. If approved you make your monthly interest free payments to them. If you're an automatic bill pay kinda guy it should be pretty painless.

It's all in the post processing. Buddy of mine did some raw comparisons and iPhone7/Pixel raws are hilariously noisy compared to a good quality Nikon. Yet if you let the phone do it's thing in auto mode, it's incredible how good the mobile phone pictures end up compared to the Nikon.
