#52Is there new hardware in the phone for the forehead thermometer? Any chance this comes to earlier models?
Re: Google Pixel 9 Pro
#53Call summary is such a good feature. How many times has your wife snapped her fingers for you to jot something down when she's on the phone with the pediatrician? you go crazy looking for a pen or something This is why I love my pixel. They build stuff that affects my life day to day. My biggest vote of confidence: since buying my wife a pixel, I've had zero tech support requests. it really just works.
Never because clear communication and good lines of understanding make a positive and stable relationship?
Snapping really? Your comment literally reads like a classic "I hate my wife" boomer meme and it comes off as kind of gross.

Yes it's new hardware. Pixel 8 also had it.

#55The previous camera bulge was questionable but this one looks horrendous
All camera bulges are a poor design. Just make the battery thicker. Either way people are throwing a case on to make the back straight again.
I think the bulges are because everyone’s using a case anyway, so they may as well bump out. Unless someone’s doing the “I care so little about protecting several hundred dollars that I use an expensive phone without a case” thing.

#56I was waiting for this to figure out if i want this phone. The answer is, I'm not willing to pay $1000 CAD.
I would like a phone with 7 years of updates, that's the reality. This is so annoying because I would go to LineageOS since it keeps getting updates, contrary to manufacturers roms.

I can't record calls but Google can? Gross.

#58I love Google Pixel phones because of Google Fi for traveling; unfortunately Google Fi is facing major service downgrades/outages for travelers (including me) who go on 3+ month trips out of the US. Google Support tells me the Google Pixel 9 Pro has the same limitation. For comparison my iPhone works fine on Verizon. The issue is now described in the Google Pixel T&C, and I hope Google will eventually offer a way to…
Do you have a link with more information on the pending changes?
Added link above. The changes took effect last year.

#59"Unlock Gemini Advanced for a year on us ($239 value)" Who thinks they are booking phone sales as AI revenue to juice the numbers?
It’s total trash AI. I keep forgetting to unsubscribe. Can’t do anything.
I mostly agree, but partially because I can't tell (even though I'm paying $20/month) what tier of Gemini I am getting. I know most people won't care, but because they won't tell me, I will assume I'm getting Gemini Flash from 6 months ago, and I'm not paying $20/month for that. I'm sure if they were honest about the model people wouldn't pay for it.
They're making the mistake of optimizing for general case users (who don't care about model version) when they need to attract power users so that they can find product-market fit.

#60I have never been less excited for a phone. Maybe it's the One Plus 12 I'm holding, but this is a hard pass by me. All I want is a flagship chip, Esim support and a headphone jack. But since earbuds are almost all profit we won't see jacks coming back.
Sony flagships fit these requirements (micro SD card slot, swim, flagship chip, esim, etc) but they unfortunately don't feel as polished in the software end. Not to mention Sony phones being very difficult to find.
