3 months ago. Join the beta. All the Apple Intelligence is pushed to 18.1, 18.2, and 18.4 apparently, so might as well join the beta train now and stay on board for all the fun.

I have work stuff on my phone so no betas unfortunately

After all my crying and moaning like a spoiled brat about my P9 Pro delays, it's coming tomorrow. So I'll stop whining now. 😁
Mine is coming tomorrow as well, although it did say 10th Sept from the start. As I ordered the watch too, I'm guessing they intentionally delayed the shipment of the phone so it arrives in one shipment on the date of the watch's release date. Looking forward to reading your first impressions :)

Did anyone order the new Pixel Buds Pro 2? I use the gen 1 every day but can't keep them in for long until they hurt.
I pre-ordered them from BestBuy I'm going to have to look and see when they will have them ready I'm thinking sometime mid-month.

Do you have the gen 1 as well? Really interested to see how much better the fit is. I think my problem is the gen 1 are maybe a bit big for my ear, they stay in but they start to bug me after a while.

I did not. I'm not an accessories kinda guy. I've obviously got the screen protector etc but cases are not my vibe. I normally buy a cheap one first few weeks then I rock it naked.
Do you have the preferred care at least? Last time I didn't have a case or screen protector on I scratched my S24 Ultra screen within 24 hours. 😂

My Pixel 9 is fully protected, screen protector and Mous case.

3 posts in a row oops. I said no accessories... May have just ordered a Watch 3...
Only because Google returns are so good I thought, why not. Did go for the larger size to try out as curious to see what it looks like on my smaller wrists. I have £140 in store credit and they were doing £50 back with the order of a watch so will see what it's like for that price.
And I've not just earned £90 back for it so that'll go towards either the new Buds or a watch strap or 2.

If I don't like it I'll return it. So it's Pixelmas again tomorrow now it seems.

I ditched my Samsung watch and got a cheap Fitbit Charge 6, which I guess is Google now lol as I had bad experience with the Pixel watch 1 and 2. Unfortunately you can't see the Fitbit in the battery widget like you could Pixel watch.

I have the Pixel A which I think was a freebie and they fit okay but suck with battery life

I really wouldn't have thought 4mm would make such a big difference. Let's see how it looks when it turns up tomorrow.
4mm on a ruler isn't much but when it's added to a cirular shape it really does make the difference with the 2mm on each side of the circle.
