Yeah noted your post earlier. Any difference if I order via Shirogawa or T&L?
Say for warranty purpose, I can send it to Shirogawa & let him manage right? Do T&L has local presence?
*
basically...t&l has an office in KL, but they are actually based in HK. So they will ship the phone back to HK and then send back to the manufacturer.

Look how thick it is on the pixel 2 XL (Right) compare to samsung S8+ (Left)

Anyone know how to turn on the play now ? I cant seem to find it in the sound > advance menu...  hmm.gif
I also notice if there is incoming notification or call with vibration, the EIS and OIS fail to compensate the vibration on the phone with camera mode.....

As always, OTA are on batch, even if you manually check update doesnt guarantee immediate update.
If wish to have earliest update, sign up for Android Beta program.

Pixel comes with really-basic-near-useless file explorer, aka Downloads. Go Play store download 3rd party ba.

Google has just released a new file explorer app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?....apps.nbu.files feel free to try

I was disgruntled because Samsung discontinued IR, hence I'm using other brands which support IR. LOL

Yes, there are some (serious) flaws in softwares / apps architecture or design.

Aiyo bad comparison la, neither kpop and Samsung are fading šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Yup ... You might say contradict .... What i mean was snappy in term of performance Kind of recall i did some tweaking on the animation ...that why it is snappy) but the touch-wiz UI is just a meh to me in the the appearance dept...

if you ask non stock android users, they will say stock android design are meh...but for us, we know that stock android's material design is the standard for android, thats why we will always prefer stock design over anything else tongue.gif

For me, smoothness > all

You may find OnePlus or even Samsung/Huawei ( when it work accordingly ) can be faster at apps opening etc, but non can rival the consistency of smoothness, it's just constant 60fps.
*
dev options, set animation all those to 0.5 and you are good to go. but i agree with you, consistency is important

So, how do you guys make a complete switch from Samsung phone to Pixel.

I know Photos, Contacts all will be sync once you login Google.How about Chat Log of whatsapp,wechat and kakaotalk. I need some of these to be transferred as well.

Any apps to do that?

Thanks!
*
WhatsApp
Go to settings --> chat --> backup, you will see google drive on top, its better to turn on daily backup. So whenever you want to change phone, make sure you log in to your google drive and insert SIM first, then download WhatsApp and follow the steps, your backup should be detected.

Wechat
Same go to settings..you can either backup to wechat windows/mac application, or backup from your phone (QR code will be given). Then you log in to your wechat account on your new phone, right top corner there is an option for you to scan QR code, thats all.

Kakaotalk
same thing go setting --> chat --> chat backup, a pin will be needed which is for authentication purposes when you restore from your new phone. Then just log in from your new phone, and you should see a message that prompts you to restore or not

How about for iphone user to migrate to pixel? Can cloud backup whatsapp and restore?

dont think so but i remember there are 3rd party apps that can do the trick...need to pay tho hahaha

for other stuff...you can just use the dongle to connect your iphone to pixel . while you are setting up you will be asked whether to copy data to new phone or start fresh tongue.gif

No, both issues you have described are not normal.

As for the vibration that happens when you press the camera shutter button, can you try disabling your shutter sound off and try again? The Pixel 2 XL dual front stereo speakers occasionally "rumbles" at high volumes which can probably attribute why your phone "vibrates" when the shutter plays the "bloop" sound.

If that doesn't work, try factory resetting your phone.

If that still doesn't work, i'd suggest you to send it in for a RMA.
All resellers below source their Pixel units from different countries as follows:

Shirogawa - USA
Techbug - USA and/or Canada
T&L - Europe/UK

As for after sales service, Shirogawa will honor the 2 year Google warranty. Not sure about Techbug.

As for T&L, they only honor 1 year warranty.

In short, all 3 sellers above provide good after sales service based on the customer feedback. I suggest you do adequate research first before committing.

techbug 2 years as well.

Indeed superb deal but was hoping he could directly deduct the phone price with the usd100 credit. Anyway, will wait till 12.12 before deciding coz promo deal extended to 15 Dec I believe.

Lol deduct the 100$ credit? Impossible la hahaha maybe you can try selling it yourself when you got it šŸ˜‚
