I have to say I'm still loving this phone - the camera is just wonderful. Since turning 5G modem off the battery seems a lot better. It's become a work horse for me as I use it for work and personal (dual sim).

Really basic simple things like not connecting to my work WiFi, when I literally live at my work for weeks at a time with no mobile signal, is just a total deal breaker.
I can't wait to be rid of it.

I guess it strongly depends on where you are and your personal circumstances.
Phone has been perfect for me so far.
Only issue I've had was Google sending me the wrong phone initially

Maybe you got a faulty phone?

Indeed it's horses for courses. This for me is probably one of the best phones I've ever owned - but for my usage it's ideal. that's why there's choice out there, people can choose what works best for them.

Probably. It constantly connects and disconnects in the airport, too.
WiFi at home works fine, so who knows.

I think in your situation, I'd just sell up and buy something else.
Or possibly Google will offer a good trade in deal for the pixel 7.
If you want to risk the 7 being no better....

Yes, I'll probably buy the new iPhone and give it a try.
Have you turned Private DNS on?
I had it on automatic and it worked fine at home but it gave me issues on other WiFi connections.
Search for it in settings and it will come up

That fixed it, mate. Thanks - that's been just short of a year I've had to suffer that carry on.

Like any tech device, it's great when it works, awful when it doesn't 
Talk of iPhones is sacrilege though

Had the strangest thing today after my update, I plugged my 6 in to charge and it didn't do anything. Went into settings and battery share was on and my phone wouldn't charge until I turned it off.
There Is no device close to charge wirelessly....

Pixel 6. I have adaptive brightness off and screen brightness set to 100%. When I unlock the screen and then place the phone screen down on the table it vibrates after a few seconds, I lift the phone up and the screen is dull and then comes back to full brightness. If you don't pick it up within 10 seconds and then pick it up the screen if off and the phone i locked.
Does anyone know what setting this is please as I want to turn it off. Thank you.
