Google "Will take up to 4 working days to validate"
Users "IT DIDN'T DO IT INSTANTLY, Y U NO WORK GOOGLE!!!11!1!!"

Lol. It is a bit weird that some people get really fast, seemingly automated approval, and some people have to wait.

GOOGLE Y U NOT GIV ME MAH FREE HADPHONEZ

We all know pro users get priority

This is the only explanation.

It's not that really it's just odd that some get it instantly others not so makes me question if I did something wrong lol.

LOL. Actually that's a good point, were any non-pro users automatically approved? Maybe its the vendor (i.e. CPW) that have taken the hit upfront so contractually different?

Can't claim mine until the 10th based on order date as I didn't order until the 27th, I'll be keeping mine though!

Im still undecided to keep mine or not. I was thinking use them as a xmas gift, but I dont know if they will be delivered in time.

Made my claim the other day and was approved within few hours

 

[mark43]

Mine wasn't instantly approved, took about 90 minutes. Standard 6 ordered direct from Google.

I was always intending to sell the headset, but tempted to keep them as don't have any decent headphones, plus I may not get much with so many people selling them on.

Put mine through now. Will update when I get a confirmation.

I already use aa Audeze Penrose as bluetooth headphones for TV watching but they're not exactly 'portable' so the Bose will get plenty of user for TV/Phone watching and travel use. Plus adding another set of heaphones to my collection is no bad thing Currently got DT990 pro and the Audeze Penrose.

Has anyone who bought from CPW had a claim approved yet?

 

[TallPaul_S]

Have to say, the battery on this thing is tremendous. Came off charge at 7am today, 'normal' usage for me which is light use, some web stuff, MFA approvals, bit of Youtube at lunch etc, typical day of not really looking at the phone too much. It's still on 77%.

Does/is anyone using any form of battery conditioning?

The one thing i was always quite impressed with on Sony was their battery care features - it would learn when you typically put your phone on charge and then charge it to 90% and do a trickle charge to 100% by the time you typically unplugged it.

I don't see the Pixel having anything like this, and accubattery's version of battery conditioning is to only charge it to 80% to reduce big wear cycles.

What are people doing about screen protectors and the fingerprint scanner? Are people just not bothering? Bit of a deal breaker them not working for me personally.

I started off using a Caseology one I got with the Parallax case, and unfortunately the underscreen reader hardly worked at all. To be fair they've offered me a full refund.
I took delivery of a Mediadevil Glassfree Magicscreen today and it's been flawless so far, very pleased.

Pixels have adaptive charging but it's pretty limited compared to other OEMs, it requires you to have an alarm set, and then it will slow charge the phone until it's near the alarm time, where then it will charge to 100%, similar to Sony. It's a shame it can't access the alarms on your Google Home devices, would've made it much smarter.

Could you upload a picture of how it fits the screen? I am using a cheap glass one from amazon just now and the fit is horrible. (The finger print scanner does work with it though)

Anyone managed to get call screening to work correctly? When I have tested it with a landline and then press call screen to answer it, the call screening doesn't happen, as in Google doesn't say anything.

I don't think it's fully rolled out to the UK yet? Give it a few weeks and it should pop up, when you have it you should see this in the settings: https://9to5google.com/2021/10/25/p...-screen-feature-begins-rolling-out-in-the-uk/
