Minu, 29 Feb 2024You seem to have not understood my point. Sure, there'... more"No matter how much you move with technology, most people would simply use a mobile phone for the same set of requirements."
Agree with your whole post but let me say something about this quoted part..
As I like to travel a lot with my family and kids I have a high respect for phones with a good camera set ups. So I must say even I use my phone (almost) the same way I did in 2017. results with more modern phones are vastly better in camera department then let's say phones 2 or 3 years ago let alone 5, 6 or more. Camera is the single most important thing for me on a phone.
Pixel's and Xperia's are in my peak interest when I'm getting ready to buy my next phone which once when I was younger was every year or so and lately I tend to have it for longer with special focus on what's going on with mobile camera department.
I'm using Pixel 7 and Xperia 1 V which are very different but they both have their advantages and I like using them in different situations. Before those I had OnePlus 7 Pro which looked future proof with its design and specs sheet numbers but camera wasn't so good. In fact it was barely usable specially if you wanted to record a video. Difference between that phone and these I have today is just too big to ignore. Other then that camera thingy, OnePlus 7 Pro still works like a charm and still looks modern and fresh. If I wouldn't be so much in search for a good phone camera I would probably think like you and never bother to change my phone even if it's in 6-7 years of use. For emails, socials and the basics phone calls even the most basic entry level phones of today are good enough for average Joe.
And btw.. a lot of people is using a phone for banking today and for them your Nokia 8 would be practically unusable. I understand your point of view, but I don't think many people is using cash in this era. Generally obly elder and cyber paranoid people stayed on their ATM's solutions instead of more practical and modern one. Fair enough. Everyone has a right to spend their money how they like. It all depends on us and what kind of users are we right?
Anyways, I wish you a many more happy years with using your HMD Global phone. The home of Nokia phones :)

Craddan, 15 Apr 2024So your phone does not heat up in normal use?Normal heating (I would say warming up) under certain conditions like heavy use or operating the phone during high temperature weather. Nothing alarming and just like any other phone.

I saw no difference on pixel 6a and 7a camera. You can't utilize the 64mp anyway. And performance wise same as pixel 6a. Only difference is 2gb ram more and wireless charging which both to me don't matter. No need to upgrade from pixel 6a to pixel 7a. Just wait for pixel 8a instead. It's not worth the jump.

For anyone who has a carrier-locked Pixel 6a: you will be able to unlock the bootloader after getting it unlocked (unless it's a Verizon model). Just installed LineageOS on my T-Mobile model.

I just downloaded the March 5th update (669 MB) for my Pixel 6a in the Czech Republic (Vodafone). Looks like they fixed some of the lag when writing a message. The system update card also looks different now. There should be also some camera settings improvement. For now, the phone runs better than ever.
