Google Pixel 10 Series (10/10 Pro/10 Pro XL/10 Pro Fold & Pixel Watch 4)

Has anyone had any trade in issues so far in terms of Google refusing what they sent in? Hoping to not have any issues with my Xiaomi 12T if I decide to trade it in! Sounds like a lot of folks are trading in older pixels!
No issues yet, used then previously and it was fine.

I mentioned above, depending on value I would go for RMSD for example. They use the tracked Royal Mail service which I believe technically only covers for £150. I sent an iPhone 16 Pro so done the usual, took plenty of pictures of the device, packed it securely (additional protection) and sent it down. Awaiting my approval but would expect full value. It's currently being assessed.

With any of these companies though there are always horror stories, which is usually what people like to post about rather than the positive experiences.
 
I am torn between the Bellroy Leather Case & the Pixelsnap Case for Pixel 10 Pro.

Both areas good the same price on Google store.

Has anyone got either of these two cases & care to give their opinion?

Cheers

Just spotted that the previous pixel stands aren't compatible with the P10?
It seems there is some truth to this. My P10 Pro wont charge on my pixel stand (1) unless I remove the case first.
It does work if I place the phone on the stand sideways, but according to Reddit that only works on the first gen stand.

Edit: Just also realised that it only works sideways in the case with the buttons side down

Yes finally GSMarena have done some testing...worse than last year... And by quite some margin!

Absolute abysmal battery performance.

I've noticed the occasional lag/stutter when going back through the settings menu, anyone else?

Not in the UI. However when a played back a 4k x265 movie via VLC there were lots of stutters. Plays fine on the P8P.

Having a compromised GPU is not helping. Google need to pull their finger out and update the driver. Not impressed with the 10 series at all.

GSM Arena reviews don't look promising!

It's not so bad (I guess, depends how you use your phone!) when you alter the slider, to adjust how you use your phone.

So worse camera and worse battery life than the 9? The 9 at the moment seems a better phone than the 10.

I feel like google does this repeatedly, releases a pixel its amazing but then messes up and momentum runs out for them.

Shame.
 
You know it's bad when it's worse than the 9 series which was already bottom of the pack in battery tests last year. Either way I don't think anyone is surprised with Google's effort.
 
Just sent my P9 for trade in via special delivery, but I've got a horrible feeling it's going be a problem. I think the postmaster might have totally covered the original label, so when it arrives they won't know who's it is....
It didn't occur to me until I got home. Ugh.

You supply the IMEI when you fill the trade in form in from memory, so they should be able to link it to your order.
 
Hmmm, the more I think about it the more I think I didn't get asked for an IMEI this time.
Well nothing I can do about it now except wait and see. I can always give them my IMEI if it does become a problem.

Got the Belroy as had it for my iPhone 16 Pro and it's just as good coming to the Pixel. Premium look and feel and still has a slim profile.

I had ran a Belroy day one for nearly a year on the iPhone so certainly a good indicator for how it lasts.

I have taken your recommendation & ordered the Bellroy Sapphire on Google Store.

Thanks

The 10 Pro tests using the modem seem to beat out the 16 Pro on the basis that the 10 Pro battery size is much larger.

GSMArena seem to be doing some of their testing on WiFi only?

The multicore speed tests do seem to be real though (i.e much slower) but I think the chip is being deliberately slowed to keep heat in check.
