You got a 7 Pro refurb as a replacement?
Or if it's just another 6 Pro there is a thread here https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/google-pixel-6-6-pro.18928502/

Ah you're right, somehow completely missed that out.
My Pixel Watch broke today. It was acting up for a little while - assistant coming on all the time as though a button was stuck. Then the back cover came off.
Seems to be a fairly common problem. Purchased October 2022. I contacted Google via live chat and have been asked to wait up to 48 hours for an email addressing the issue.
Hopefully I don't have to buy another watch.

Android 15 update has done some weird things to my battery - either usage / remaining charge info is glitched or theres been some massive improvement to battery life.
Currently sat at 93% with 1hr 29mins SoT after fully charging it / restarting it following the update landing this morning... weird!

Interesting, I'm about to upgrade to the 9PXL as my battery life is shocking - don't think I've had the update yet so will take a look...
Sadly this must have been a glitch of some kind. Same battery % today and only 42mins SoT. Knew it was too good to be true hah!

Ugh, I've just started the updating progress. Cheers for the heads up.

Android 15 seems very dull. Gone are the days of UI overhauls and exciting new features. They took longer than normal developing this and if someone had updated my phone overnight and given it back, I doubt I'd know the difference!
Soldato
Yes the differences are pretty minimal over the last few iterations of Android.
The only two features I have turned on since getting the Android 15 update are:
Adaptive Vibration
Theft Protection

That's for mentioning the Adaptive Vibration. It will be usually in my home office.
I'm looking at the Pixel 7a as I need an Android phone to develop apps for it and I'm curious if the 7a is a good choice? Also I'd like to know how long it will receive major Android updates.
If it isn't a good choice can you suggest something else for under £500?

Just picked up a 7a, very happy with it for about £200.

Noticed that hotspot has stopped working on my Pixel 7 recently, unsure if it's phone or network related. Data still works fine when out though with 5G. I'll turn hotspot on, connect to it and there wont be any itnernet conenction to the device that is hotspotting.
Try another device to connect to the hot-spot

I understand how frustrating that must be, and I’m sorry to hear about your situation. Is it possible to return it for warranty repair?
