Don't know if anyone has noticed this but you can install Samsung Internet on the Pixel now. It's fast and supports ad blocking. Really missed it from my S7.
Upload your music to Google Play Music. That's what I did. Takes some time and organising, but you can upload 50,000 tracks.
Already done that.Google play music runs like a dog on the pixel I've owned. Plus i don't want to use an inferior music app.
Are their any USB c micro SD card dongle things that can be read easily as a drive to play music on the pixel

Something like this? https://shopmeenova.appspot.com/st/p/dash_g3c.html
Think you have to root the phone to be able to install some files that will allow the Pixel to see any SD card you use with the adapter. I know I had to do that with my Nexus 5/6 with the microUSB adapter version Meenova sold.

I have noticed, when I press play on the widget, I have to wait about 5 seconds for any sound to play. Does everyone have this?

Variable for me... Feels like caching shenanigans going on possibly. 5X and 6P were much the same for me.
I've thrown about 30,000 tracks at the upload, and use a canny chunk of the streaming subscription as well... If I download to the device, it's usually ok, but i sometimes get some stuttering.
I've not tried the same on a P9 or the Honor 8 though.
Has anyone else experienced a slower camera and general slowed responsiveness across the board on their pixel?
The camera is far slower to launch and shutter speed has gone from basically instant to half a second or so and ruined a few photos lately.
On top of that the phone has been laggy in launching the dealer and apps from time to time. Typical degradation that i would expect on touchwiz, less so stock.

Can't say I have noticed this on mine of late. The one thing I noticed previously is that when you clear the cache to free up some space the phone can be slow again for up to a day, I assume while it rebuilds your cache so I've stopped wiping it now, just let it build.

Not really Pixel related but for those interested in the Google Eco System, Home and WiFi are now shown on the UK store.
Home for £129 and WiFi for £129
Join the waiting list only

I haven't noticed this and I've had mine since the first month of launch.
Spoke to Google support today with question on Google WiFi and they said that the waiting list should open up as a firm ability to buy as from launch date of 6 April Same with Home. I expect to buy both, esp as WiFi should help boost signal in two rooms of house that are currently not great for WiFi.

Can anyone please check their regular Pixel charging amps using the official charger?
Mine feels slower compared when it was new
Ampere app says it is charging at 1400mA
Estimates at 39% is is 1h 52mins
Although does says Charging Rapidly

Ampere isn't very accurate.

Yea I dont expect it to be 100%. I do not have the tools to take an accurate measurement so I am using it as a rough reference.
