hahah typo, hopefully pixel 3 sales coming here, anyways why are they not bringing it in? coz of sky high price?

QUOTE(pluginbaby @ Mar 17 2018, 08:56 AM)
There's sellers in garage sales I guess. I think Mobile2Go also selling it but so be careful bout the warranty policy ya

alright will survey around rclxms.gif

QUOTE(kernel123 @ Mar 17 2018, 11:48 AM)
sadly.pixel 2 xl low light performance loses to s9..s9 slightly better.helped by that f1.5 aperture.hopefully pixel 3 will come with same aperture

.but potrait mode pixel 2 still the best. better detail and dynamic range. but bokeh rendition s9 better..
*
true, samsung bokeh mode quite mess up still. when will pixel 3 be releasing yea?

garage sales is the quickest you can get good deal. if a week or two will not be a trouble, get from qoo10 or 11street.
*
Can't seem to enter qoo10 site. Is it down? Currently saw 3.2k for 128gb. Is it ok? How come other places selling 4.2-4.6k lol

it's normally due to google's 2 years warranty vs 1 year shop warranty. 3.2k for 128gb is fine, cheaper than some pre-loved unit.
*
used ones quite expensive, maybe they bought the 4.2k+ ones.

QUOTE(h11g @ May 8 2018, 08:44 AM)
im using the Sony 1000XM2, the noise cancelling is out of this world. they are having tonnes of promotion on it now.

Get it from 11street should be around RM3050 after RM100 voucher for 128GB variant, sell by T&L. I'm getting it today maybe.
*
I paid yesterday, today they said shipped out d. Hope to get it soon. From 11street the phone cannot apply coupon to it.

QUOTE(rebus @ May 8 2018, 04:43 PM)
hi pixel owners, a few questions -

1. your sets are all US sets? or sourced from other countries as well?
    no difference though, right?

2. XL owners no issue with scree blue tint?

planning to get but still undecided between the smaller or larger.
Good price from T&L but warranty only a year.
*
Bump, want to know these answers too.

1. No difference other than warranty

2. My only issue was I had distorted bottom speaker, after RMA twice I finally got a working one.
*
how did u test it? loud volume? u got it from T&L as well? twice is quite headache tho.

and off topic, where to get TG for pixel 2 XL? cant seem to find in garage sales, and i think its hard to find good ones in the mall as well

There's this high frequency/rattling sound that can be heard during any music/video & on speaker phone. I'd describe it as those sound when you're using walkie talkie.
I've owned several phones before and this is the first phone i had issue with audio distortion. Google definitely needed better QC for the XL model.

Can try to TG from shopee or taobao.
*
Alright thanks! Do u know any shop selling? Haha. Because I'm not so good in applying those things.

The parcel deliver from Hong Kong, so the holidays doesn't affect them. Until it reach Malaysia. At least your status updated, mine still doesn't have tracking number lol. Luckily my current phone still usable.

I ordered the case from Newegg(US store) after 2 days browsing eBay, Amazon and etc. At first I want to order UAG Plasma, but it's quite bulky, then Spigen Crystal Clear, but design too boring. So ended up with Incipio Reprieve Sport 2.0. And cannot choose between 2 colors, so buy 2. Might sell t later if I able to pick 1 for myself.  biggrin.gif

Now am looking for tempered glass screen protector, might buy online and ask shop near my house help install. My hand is so bad at installing screen protector.
*
ohh, coz i ordered on 7th, then 8th they said ready to be shipped already, and then evening in transit in PJ, dont quite under the status, got inbound outbound from same station lol.

cool nice! quite hard to find SP or TG in forum, found few SP, maybe try out SP first. how much are those cases?

I browse through ebay, amazon, lazada, most of the screen protector will have problem because of the curve glass. Except for Dome Tempered glass which cost around RM200.  sweat.gif

You order on 7th and on 8th already in PJ? Waow. I think we get the phone from diff shop maybe. Because mine is from T&L, they shipped from Hong Kong, and will take 4 to 5 days to reach according to them.
*
not sure the status real or not, coz its stated in transit PJ, maybe waiting the phone to arrive in pj lol.
mine from T&L as well. i saw some reviews also they received phone in 2 days time. 4-5days should be the estimated maximum days.

im using s8 also, with SP i think its better, just get a good SP and casing. i dropped my phone many times, screen so far ok, touchwood hahah. biggrin.gif

Just checked their FB Page, yep the delivery varies from 2 days to 14 days. Hopefully mine can reach earlier.

Do you mean SP = normal screen protector? The feeling when touching normal screen protector vs glass screen protector is different. I prefer glass. This is the first time i use phone with screen bigger than 5 inch, don't know can put in pocket or not.  sweat.gif
May I know before this why it need rooting to play? And t only affect PUBG or there are many other apps/games affected?
*
yeah, but from my experience for curved screen, cannot find good TG cry.gif
if this pixel doesnt have much curve then should be ok, but dunno where to find, coz i dont like to apply myself, sure fail bangwall.gif

Hey manĀ  I hope you receive yours, I just get mine. Didn't open the box yet though because no screen protector or casing.

Hey man, yeah I collected mine in the branch.
I think it's better if u get Whitestone TG.
Do you have a problem connecting WiFi? I can't detect my house WiFi but can detect my neighbor's WiFi.

Did u get the whitestone already? where? it cost so much, like RM200+ right..

I have no problem with wifi, directly detected, just issue with screen blue tint when tilted, this one I know before I buy, just bear with it I guest.

You can check you manufacturing date here to see when your phone was manufactured, using ur imei number : mine is november 25 2017

Try check yours, because we buy from same shop. and mien is 128gb white/black.

Ya I found that 1 too, saw many reviews in youtube are using the IQ Shield rather than armorsuit, sold by the same person that u buy armorsuit. But RM99, is quite high, and wet application is hard to do, at least for me. I really want tempered glass. Search reviews in youtube and xda, all have big flaws.

So ended up order Whitestone dome glass yesterday through lazada, RM199, hopefully installation went smooth later. For now, I will go to accessories shop and install whichever SP available while waiting for the Whitestone.

Haven't use my pixel, so can't help on the selfie part.  console.gif

Yeah, I think it's better you buy white stone straight. Will buy it too once this sp worn out.

Realised there's no double tap to sleep or screen lock.

I thought I saw the reviewer use it in the youtube, have you double check the setting?

Try go to setting > display > advance > double tap check phone

U can double tap to check phone if u off the always on display. But can't double tap to lock it tho. Need to get used to it actually. Quite many functions u used to that dont apply on the vanilla os.
