Thank you for that perspective. I guess I can live with lavender. Hehe. Just put a nice black case on it.

Thank you for that perspective. I guess I can live with lavender. Hehe. Just put a nice black case on it.
I think the colors this year for the ultra are pretty bad for the standard colors. I would have liked a real purple or even a true lavender not pink with a tiny bit of purple.Thank you for that perspective. I guess I can live with lavender. Hehe. Just put a nice black case on it.
In any case pink isn't just a color for girls anymore anyway. Saving money is more important anyway.
If you can get a good deal on the ultra no matter the color I say go for it. It is a great phone and as mentioned above you can add a case and I bet a deep purple would go nice with Lavender. Ringe has a deep dark purple case that would go well with it. Just check Amazon for Ringe Onyx. Really nice case.
Not yet. Probably going to be a few days.
My Pixel hasn't even gotten the June update yet. It was just announced for Pixel so it should get it soon.
In my experience the ultra has always followed getting an update after my Pixel by a few days. So I am assuming early next week if I get a Pixel update soon.
Apparently it was pulled cause of bugs, but it should be available soon though.
Easy to complain about but glad they found the bugs before we did.
Unfortunately I also lost the ability to speak normally for a day and a half. I could swipe type pretty well. In my head I can form complete sentences. But when I try to type or speak, complete gibberish or random words come out instead. When I'm typing I won't notice until I go back and proofread.
My speech actually still is rather stilted. Sometimes speaking gives me a headache.
I did finally get an appointment with a specialist but not a neurologist. Gastroenterologist. But hey, at least one doctor was willing to see me without making me wait a year in a queue!
Now getting back to VR, I just want to see dinosaurs in my living room again. That was fun when I did it on Samsung's goggles.
I also enjoyed virtual fishing. It was fun and more humane than the real thing.
I'd like AR to help me navigate new places on foot.
Beyond that, I prefer unaugmented reality most of the time.
You might want to give the VR a cautious approach, it’s not good for those with migraines. It triggered a few for me when I used my son’s Oculus Quest 2 VR headset. Because of the way it works it did something to my vision and messed with me.
Oh goodness! I'm sorry to hear that. For me with Samsung VR it was the opposite and I used to go into VR to soothe my migraines. Also I was the only person in my household who could stay in there as long as I wanted. Everyone else go nauseous within a few minutes. But that was Samsung. I would bet they're all different and I'll definitely exercise caution.
I probably won't be able to use the Apple ones if the mechanism to track eye movement is the same as attention aware on iPhone. The IR dots cause me incredible eye pain. I can't play with Animoji at all. I have to turn everything off.
You might be ok then, I have since used it and have been fine - mostly. I don’t get the nausea I have heard of. My son often spends upwards of 4 hours playing some of his games and no issues but then he lives in there most days
Cannot say I’m too impressed by these rumoured specs for the S23FE. Doing away with the Snapdragon is an immediate negative in my view.

Yeah. I honestly wish Pixels used Snapdragon just because in my head that's the best. But in day to day functions I honestly can't tell my 7a is running what is essentially an Exynos. Granted, it's heavily customized by Google.Cannot say I’m too impressed by these rumoured specs for the S23FE. Doing away with the Snapdragon is an immediate negative in my view.

I think the manufacturers are on trend to really make the non flagships very spare. So you're really going to feel the sacrifice not going flagship.
Well, I have to admit I don't feel my 7a is depriving me of much luxury. But I'm weird and have a tech crush on this phone. 🤣
Hm, great sales again on Ultra… maybe will buy 256gig one to try android next to iphone.. doubt i will ever leave ios, but for relatively low amount of money can try ultra, just for fun
I didn't know it had been pulled. I was just checking for the update and didn't see anything. I am glad they took the extra precations though. Thanks @Technerd108 and @hockeyfan81 for the replies
I've seen that before but not on this device.. did you try to reset network? And then do a reboot
Yeah I just did that, and it'll connect for a bit and then disconnect as I'm using it and switch to 5g.
So far just my home WiFi. What's weird is that every other device is working just fine. Just tested my work iPhone 11 and having no issues.
I'm trying to remember someone on another forum has issue with wifi6 and connection ...
There were some peeps having issues on previous updates and some resolved it in the meantime by disabling wifi 6 on their home routers ...not ideal solution but might be worth a look to see if this is what is causing your issue
I've connected my Galaxy Fold to a 4K monitor and used DeX... works flawlessly. I've used Xbox Game Pass on my Galaxy Fold briefly, so I cannot give you any advice on the performance. But there's plenty of videos out there giving users an idea of what to expect using a monitor/tv with Android for Xbox Game Pass.
And I highly doubt the performance is going to be as equivalent to being on the console. But Microsoft is putting quite a lot of resources behind cloud gaming.
