The day has finally arrived...

I've done it. I ordered an...iPhone :(

Got my son one earlier this year so had a chance to check it out, used it for a bit, verified that all the apps I needed ran on it. I'm done with Android. Google has been one let down after another. Current Pixel 3XL (<1 year old new replacement) now over heats occasionally and won't turn on until it cools off. The Google app, which runs almost everything on the home screen, crashes all the time. I have to go through Settings -> Apps and then force stop and start it. That now makes 3-4 pixels that have all failed shortly after a year. I don't get it wet, I don't drop it, in fact I've NEVER had to replace a screen.

Should be here end of next week.

Screw that, I'm getting the new Pixel 6. I love what I'm seeing and now they've gone the route of producing their own CPU for it, which is allowing them to do lots of things they couldn't before. The list of features with the new Pixel 6 is wild. Looking forward to it now that they officially announced it and shipping real soon.

Yeah, Pixel 6 is on my radar to replace my old Pixel 2 XL, although that bad boy is still going strong.

Sorry, can't every see being part of Apple's walled garden. Did that for a while with my iPod Touch.

I'd love the Pixel 6 Pro but I'm not a fan of super large phones. I prefer a phone I can drop into the center console.
