but this is basically common knowledge at this point, google india prices pixels stupid high, no one buys, people who buy get it from outside india, and then BBD sale comes and the price goes down like crazy, and then new pixel phone launches, with another stupid high price. rinse-repeat.

Look, if I owned and ran a business, and all the profits were mine to keep, I would slog 70 hours too, to build it up and get more money. From that POV, NRN statement makes sense but that is it. But as an employee, I get paid for my time, and india isn't really good about OT. We are exploited...

That is never going to happen, they will continue with Samsung node manufacturing.

Where did you buy it in? Can you tell us the price in INR you got it for? Also, please tell us how the fingerprint sensor is? is it fast? Please do also report about heating/battery life once you use it. :)

Does no one remember that they killed Pixel Pass, a thing that was meant for pixels and promised upgrades after 2Y? I will believe their "promise" when I see it. I trust nothing that comes from google...

9. give away a phone (who knows who gets one) for RTs, likes and comments

I agree - I have noticed the frame drops on samsung, and the occasional stutter :( This too on a flagship device. I dont know why most tech reviewers dont flag it - maybe they dont really use their devices that much The camera - I like the pixel skin tones far more than samsung, but in night...

I have had a very, very terrible experience with Pixel devices and have posted about it before. 1. Phone heats up like a toaster oven in indian climate, doesnt cool well at all. Never fixed 2. The network reception is piss poor, and lot of calls are missed due to that which is a non-negotiable...

wow this is crazy, I just logged in now otherwise would have bought this as a gift!!

no, it does not support VESA mount if that is what you are asking

That is some next level conspiracy theory and highly, highly unlikely

online gaming I totally support though. by gaming, I mean, gambling.

yeah, exactly. I suppose it will be the same as how phones are done, and things will be fine. I think this is fine, if we get assembly here, atleast it incentivizes jobs here and gets more expansion scope later on. Not a big fan of china having a monopoly in manufacturing, so this is painful but...

Honestly, life will go on just fine - HP and Dell already assemble stuff here, and they can just adjust a few processes and do that. They will be fine. Folks from niche brands that import and sell will be in trouble. This benefits companies like Jio who are trying to break into laptop space...

does this restriction apply to PC parts? I dont think so, right?

I am one of those who saves more taxes in the new regime, and its nice to not have to care about all these deductions.

In fact, if you cant afford the ultrasonic FP, might as well just have a rear mounted or back mounted FP sensor, they are both cheaper, and also faster. :facepalm:

This is good, definitely, it will make pixel prices lower as it wont have to be imported from vietnam. They are doing this to avoid reliance on china. Apple is also assembling phones here.

I sold P6A and got S22+ in the flipkart offer - I think the cameras match up fairly well, but my S22+ does not heat up that much and does not struggle with camera in outdoor heating. Samsung emojis suck but apart from that the OneUI thing does not really bother you that much now, once you set it...

What did you end up doing? Did you do a refresh or a clean install of windows 10?
