I wasn't gonna upgrade, Lord knows I don't need to. But.....

$600 trade in for my P6P AND $200 credit from google store AND another $100 credit with my Google One membership.

Plus, that Obsidian just looks sick to me. Pretty hard to pass up. 256GB Pixel 7 Pro preordered. I think I'm set for a while. Holding that S22 Ultra in my desk drawer till the S23 series is released. Hopefully it won't get a bulging battery from storing it so long without using 😂 (IYKYK)
Yes. Come on board.

Yes. BestBuy here had it.
I went to BB's website and much to my dismay they still have it carrier locked to the vendors that pay BB. I wanted to see what my 4a would get me in a trade and a 100% unclocked phone was nowhere to be found. They do the same with the iPhone's.

The Pixel Watch is $350? Wow way off the mark with that price if you ask me. That’s more than the Galaxy Watch 5 which is easily a better device. Pixel Watch has smaller lower res screen, less sensors, worse Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, worse battery, worse bezels, worse IP rating, and worse processor. It’s such an inferior device.

Google are falling back into their early Pixel days trope of…we think our software is so good, we can give you budget hardware and charge you premium prices.

I’m really far behind all the news. I don’t even know the colors this time around. I was not planning to trade my 6 Pro in at all but some of the deals look at least worth considering.

Unfortunately I’m broke though. I splurged on a terabyte 14 Pro Max. And I am also taking a very expensive trip soon. Assuming I ever get over this stupid virus that’s been going around. :rolleyes:

Is anyone planning on using a screen protector on theirs? Specifically 7 Pro. I never had one on my 6 Pro due to the curved screen, and even though the curve is supposedly slightly lessened on the 7, I’m still not convinced they’re any good.

Did anyone rock one on a 6 Pro?

I used a film one. It’s okay.
Hmm I can’t take to that kind at all. But I understand why it would be a better option on a curved screen.

I really want to protect it as my 6 Pro screen ended up covered in light (and some deep) scratches. No idea how.

I ordered a pair of tempered glass protectors for the 7 Pro. This year the screen on the 7 Pro is almost flat but not quite.

Interesting. Thanks all. I think I’ll have to go for something. 👍🏻. I may also go for a Bellroy leather case this time.

My Sorta Sunny Google case from last year got grubby pretty quickly.

I went with the Ringke clear case to show off the Hazel 7 Pro. It comes in clear and matte finish. Both the screen protectors and case have shipped and hopefully I should receive them around the same time as the phone arrives.

Whitestone Dome glass screen protector rocked on my P6P. It came with 2 pack. I dropped a few times and first one chipped-off at edge. The phone screen was intact and pristine when that damaged glass screen protector was peeled off.
Currently it is available in US but USPS postal charge to UK is ridiculously high.

I guess Mobilefun will bring in at some point.
Panzer glass screen protector is good too but I rather wait for Whitestone.

Same case I bought. I figured I’d stick to something I know.

It don't show the gift card for the white P7. Lemongrass is sold out. Only shows on the black P7.

So it's either another black phone .....which I'm not a fan of , or I wait to be notified when Lemongrass is available. OR,.....just pre order from the Google Store.

But hec, I'm putting a case on it so it shouldn't matter.

I don't keep phones long enough to have the case get yellow lmfao.. but seriously even if I have to buy two a year for that price is worth it
Oh, Lol. Then no problem.
I just ordered the Lemongrass P7 from the Google store. Now got to find a case that I like and a tempered glass protector.
Wasn't aware yesterday that the Google store gave you $100 store credit. The Best Buy $100 would be better but oh well.
