@immasiddtweets I get yr point, but let me ask a question. Regular iPhones don't have a 120Hz screen refresh, but the phone is fluid, so who cares. So, if the Pixel runs smooth, why should we care about these scores? Not saying it may not be relevant in some areas, but for the masses it's fine.

I understand that Geekbench scores aren't everything, but charging $699 for a phone with such a slow chip is just robbery.

@wildlime Good to hear. Also, the battery life on my Pixel 7 Pro increased dramatically with Android 14. They certainly did something right, IMO.

@android_fhd Battery life has improved quite a bit it seems. After a whole day on the 7 Pro I still have 40-50% left. I don't believe that happened before. Quite surprised, actually.

Pixel users : How is your experience with Android 14 so far? Have you seen any improvements in terms of battery and overall performance?

@android_fhd Yes, once I used an iPhone for a bit more than a year and went back. After that, I used one for a couple of weeks and went back. I could use either, but Android works slightly better for me.

Android users : Have you ever tried an iPhone and switch back to Android?

@sondesix If you ask iPhone users, I imagine they'll say they can't switch back... Also include those that have tried iPhone, I'd say.

iPhone users... Is it true that once you switch to an iPhone, you can never go back to Android phones? 🤔

@ufc @AlexaGrasso I LOVED the fight and honestly both deserved to win, but the score cards had some issues and that is not fair to either fighter. I just really wish they will fight again!!

IT'S RULED A SPLIT DRAW 🤯 @AlexaGrasso retains her title at #NocheUFC!

@durreadan01 I used an iPhone for 2 weeks this summer and really loved the experience. I had to go back to Android and I felt that I would get an iPhone as soon as I could. However, now I am back on my Pixel 7 Pro and I don't miss the iPhone at all anymore. I could use either, really.

Is it true that once you use an iPhone, you can't go back? I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. Personally, I've found this statement to be quite true in my own case. I got my first iPhone in 2021. I was a 100% Android-guy before. But since I started using an iPhone, it has always been my main phone. Right now, I have two phones, a roughly $350 iPhone 12 and a $1,100 Z Flip5 512GB. And you know what? The cheaper iPhone is my MAIN phone and the expensive Flip is my second phone, even though the latter is a better phone on paper. The reasons are Apple's ecosystem + iOS in general. It's just too hard to give up on my Apple Watch and better-looking apps on iOS.

@thetech_wiz Totally agree. I used an iPhone 14 for 2 weeks while my Pixel 7 Pro was being fixed and the iPhone is really fluid in animations and not once did I notice a difference with the 120Hz Pixel. Both work great.

Hot take 🔥 It's the Android users who want a 90/120 hz display on the iPhones than the iPhone users themselves 🤣 Change my mind ‼️

@android_fhd I don't know if it is make or break, but it certainly conveys a feeling and interactivity that is attractive and you don't really want to "live without" and anything without feels sloppy and cheap.

Animations make or break the user experience I am sorry to say but Samsung users will never know the importance of smooth animations unless they start using phones from any of these brands Even though phones like Nothing phone 2, Oneplus 11 costs less than the Galaxy 23 ultra, They still provide you much smoother experience

@ShishirShelke1 Clearly not. It just offers a pretty great mobile experience.

According to android users, people buy iPhone only for the Apple logo. Is it true? 🤔

A message from Carl Sagan from 1995—some of his last words, for our current epoch…

He says I didn't pay enough and these are the rules. I have to check in my luggage. Much to my surprise there is plenty of room, not just in the plane, but right above my own seat. Thanks for listening to a concerned father and a customer of yours. Splendid work @klm (NOT)

@KLM So, we are being made to check in cabin luggage, because the flight is full and too many suitcases. I explain to yr staff that my daughter sometimes has terrible pain during the flight and that I'd like to take my cabin luggage with me so that we can go home as quickly....

@gigastacey I am so sorry to hear that Stacey!! I suffer migraines myself, though not daily (every 2-3 days aprox). So difficult to find sth that helps. Sports is essential for me, as many as stress related. Still get them. Will go to osteopath next week. 🤞

I've had what is basically a persistent migraine for the entire month of June with the exception of 2 to 3 days pain-free. I am so over it. Thanks to Botox the headache isn't terrible, but the muscle tightness and general stupidity is exhausting.

@jeffjarvis @ant_pruitt @leolaporte @gigastacey No offense, but that is your loss. The conversation brings to the surface things I had not thought about at all. But I understand that it is way too much techno panic for you.

@bheetebrij @ant_pruitt @leolaporte @gigastacey I couldn't get past the opening.

@ant_pruitt @leolaporte @jeffjarvis @gigastacey Just listened to the latest Twig episode with your discussion about the risks of AI. I urge to check out the following video. Perhaps the man is somewhat off on some things, but there is food for thought. youtu.be/bk-nQ7HF6k4

@MikeOBrienn Not surprised... Room enough to put the seals in 😂

@bheetebrij IPX4!

So Sony sent me this massive portable Bluetooth speaker. It's an absolute unit. Where should I use it? Wrong answers only

@SamsungMobile Just realised that the Galaxy Tab 7+ will not be getting Android 14? I would understand it if it were an old tablet, but the most recent is the Galaxy tab 8! Is there no way to review this policy? It gives longevity to your products.

I would surely not mind working like the video shows. pcworld.com/article/191939…
