    I upgraded from the Pixel 6 Pro to the Pixel 7 Pro. The phones smaller curved edges and extra screen width make the phone feel so much better in the hand. The speakers are better balanced this time around. Can't say much about battery life yet as I'm still tinkering with the phone. Feels the way the Pixel 6 Pro should have been from the start.

      Aye I was on the pixel 2 xl as well. Such a good phone that served me well. Works fine even now. I couldn't justify buying any of the previous pixles. Thought it was best to just wait it out until there's so decent changes and upgrades. Why spend So much money on a phone only to toss it away and do it again a year or so later

    • @OrcaSpace
      @OrcaSpace Год назад +1

      @@spaghetti5038 For me it was mostly because of battery. It would only last me about 3hours before dying even with 50% brightness on screen. That plus no more security updates. Decided to upgrade mainly because of those reasons.

    Thanks for the vid. Question about the punch hole. When watching videos, can you reduce video so it's black bars instead of a dead pixel hole in the video? I have old school phone right now. Seems everyone shows the videos expanded to the edge. No idea if squared corners are possible with black bars on either side. Thanks.

    • @semosancus5506
      @semosancus5506 Год назад

      Depends on the video resolution. 1080p video like youtube will have black bars so the punch hole is in a black bar. I usually zoom the video to fit width of the phone, thus cutting a little off the top and bottom. Punch hole is visible in the video.

    I had to turn off amber alerts because with working at home and running to the gym, I practically spend no time on the road most days. Yet the amber alerts will go off for me on cars 15+ miles away often at inopportune times early in the morning or during a nap, call, while working on something with my hands, etc.
    If I could customize the range of it to be just a few miles, I'd keep it on.
