Are people getting the Pixel 9? Improvement seems anecdotal compared to the 8
My mom got one but she upgraded from a 3 so it's a big improvement. I got an 8 a couple month ago and see no reason to upgrade. Most of the changes seem to be AI related with very minor hardware improvements.
Whatever if i buy one i would flash graphen os in it
Pixel 9 isn't aimed at Pixel 8 or even 7 users. These 2 phones are still very much in software support period and have a decent hardware so as not to upgrade per year. Pixel 9 is aimed at gaining either new users or upgrading very old Pixel users.
Still, two problems persist, the phone still somewhat gets hot and charging is still on the slower side. Even Samsung has jumped on 45 W bandwagon, not to mention Chinese OEMs which can recharge more than twice as fast.
I'm actually considering getting a 9 Pro, because I like the design. The past few generations of Pixels have been (in my opinion) ugly as hell. The Pixel 9 Series actually looks great though. I'll probably give the 6 Pro that I currently use to my mom (with GrapheneOS of course), because she needs a new phone anyway.
A friend showed me the "revolutionary" calculator in iOS 18. It can now show the full formula!
I was like... "This is the standard in Android since cupcake"
Do I remember right? Does anyone remember if in any point of the history of the Android aosp calculator behaved like a dumb calculator from the 80s? For reference, the calculator in iOS < 17 can show at most 10 digits and replaces the digits on screen at each press, for example, if you type 1+2=, first you see 1, then 2, then 3, with no history and no backspace. Even the calculator in Windows 3.1 has the backspace!
To be fair, there's always been backspace feature, it's just a swipe gesture, not a dedicated button
Wow, i tried it, it's like an Easter egg. Not only this swipe is nowhere mentioned in the UI, but it only works when applied over the digits, anywhere else on the screen makes a button press
Found the aosp calculator from android donut https://github.com/unrarp/material-calculator
iOS users, welcome to 2014
