I've always done clear cases. It's nice mixing it up for once!
I use Magsafe for car, charger on nightstand and Apple Wallet.
Thinking of getting this case for my P7 Pro. It has a magnet in it which comes in handy sometimes.

I got my Bellroy case and I instantly love it! Feels great, snug fit (but snaps in easy), light weight, buttons are clicky (I had read to push them a little to break them in prior to first putting it on), and it’s an overall thin case. It’s very similar to the Apple leather case to be honest.

looking good and I can't wait for mine
Picked up my Pixel 7 from Best Buy yesterday, it took over an hour. My rewards certificates botched up the Pixel 6 trade in for some reason. They had to call into corporate / some bigger center to have them resolve and they couldn't. Finally was able to cancel the order in my app and the manager just redid the whole transaction, applied the $480 trade in and gave me a physical $100 gift card.
Setting up now, the screen is noticeably worse than my iPhone 14 PM in terms of off-axis viewing. No dead pixels / dust at least. It has the "rainbow color tint" when I tilt the phone (switches rapidly through the whole spectrum of colors) and has a very limited straight-on viewing angle before the shift happens, but it isn't horrible. Nice to see that Google is still using older and crappier screens in 2022 when everyone else has made improvements.
Aside from that I love the phone compared to the 6 that I traded in. FPS is very quick and glad face unlock is back. It was a no-brainer considering what BB was offering for trade in of the 6.

The Pixel 7 uses a rigid OLED screen which is susceptible to the rainbow effect and has worse off axis color shift. These display are cheaper and what helps allow the price to only be $599... If you are going to compare screens to an $1,100 iPhone 14 PM then at least compare they 7 Pro screen which is a flexible OLED screen as you'd expect from a flagship.
Has anyone here dealt with Google's 3rd party trade in company? Were you taken to the cleaners? I have dealt with Samsung and my experience was great. I'm asking because I am about to send out my Pixel 4a which is in mint condition and the last thing I want to hear is that they won't pay the $300 they said they would.
I only use them once when I traded in the 2XL for the 4XL and they gave me exactly what the trade-in value was. It didn't seem any different than what I've experienced with Samsung trade-ins but it was a while ago

I appreciate that. But I’ve had many “cheap” phones with far better displays like OnePlus 7 Pro (which was years ago) and more recent iterations. I played with the new Moto Edge 2022 while waiting for BB to figure its stuff out, it too had a nice screen and is also $599.
So, Google is using the cheapest of the cheap re: displays.
Finally received my Woven Watch Band. Went for the Lemongrass.
Love it. Fits great, nice and comfortable and I like the mechanism to make it larger or smaller depending on your wrist size.

TGIF folks ...watch looking sleek there with that band my friend ..
My wife is so excited to get her Pixel 7 today. This will be her first Pixel since the 2XL, which she likes but we both grew to hate the quality (or lack thereof) of that display.
Does anyone have ideas on how to score a iP 14 PM with a SIM card? The only places I know of are Canada and the UK. I don't want to pay a scalpers price which I have seen them go for 2x3 the MSRP.
How are those that went from the 6 liking the 7 so far? I am on the fence, but the trade incentive from a few places is insane. Can get the new phone quite cheap, but honestly am still really happy with my 6, and personally dislike the chrome flashing around the 7's cameras.
That said, I always like the progression of Google device features.

I purchased the 7 Pro and I can tell you there are noticeable improvements. The FPS is vastly better like almost to the point where it can be as quick as a rear FPS. The battery is also improved. Android 13 doesn't eat away at the battery as it does on previous models.
I'm not a picture or selfie taker but many here say the 7 series camera, especially the 7 Pro is much improved over the 6 series.
Had the 6 Pro traded in for the 7 Pro, and I am satisfied, the 7 Pro just feels like a more polished better 6 Pro;
- Brighter screen is very noticeable outdoors, and overall just looks like a sharper better display.
- I like the softer curved edge, it feels closer to flat.
- Battery life seems a bit better.
