Google Pixel

60% in 20 hours with 6 hours of screen-on time. Not bad. I expected lowe screen-off power consumption. Instead, it looks like the screen-on power consumption is lower than my expectation.

My Sony WF-1000XM4s are the latest victim in the battery issues plaguing Sony earbuds: https://old.reddit.com/r/SonyHeadphones/comments/x7mx2n/wf1000xm4_severe_battery_issues/ Sony's apparently taking them back and refunding customers, but I'm stuck without working buds in the meantime.

I had gotten the Pixel Buds A series when I pre-ordered my Pixel 6a, but I sold them to reduce the final cost of my phone..

I've been eyeing the Pixel Buds Pro since they're down to $120 USD for Thanksgiving/Black Friday. I was wondering what owners of them think of them and if they're still worth it - considering they're 18 months old at this point.

I use earbuds in the gym or when when I'm walking to the grocery store.

I had downloaded it but never rebooted to update because I heard about some issues and decided to wait. Now it's saying I'm up to date with Android 13?

I normally don't upgrade to the next series, but with trade-in,and pixel watch 2 deal I decided why not

While I didn't particularly love the curved P7P screen it did give you more desktop real estate. The 8s screen feels a tad squished in. Everything on screen is a bit smaller. I don't hate that but it's a surprise.

I just got my Peak Design case so I can use my PD mounts (motorcycle primarily). The case seems decent however, much like my opinion of the P7P case, I think it could use slightly more lip to protect the screen and camera bump. The screen lip is probably fine if you don't run a glass screen protector, adding that thickness really reduces the lip.

Otherwise, I have only really spent time setting it up, not much time using it yet :).
