  1. Marques, my guess is that you can't use magic AI to edit your photos because you are a public figure. That's probably why it's violating the terms. You should try it with anonymous friends and other public figures to see what happens.

  2. I see a lot of comments talking about about Nokia having a feature like this but it seems the world forgot that in 2012 Blackberry introduced a similar feature on their BB OS 10 called Time Shift.

  3. Went from a 14pro to a standard pixel 8. Only concerm is that the phone heats up more than usual. Aside from that, no complaints whatsoever

  4. Just ordered the regular Pixel 8 256 Gigs Hazel colour…..switching from my Galaxy Flip 4 since the folding mechanism is starting to malfunction….my first pixel device….fingers crossed…

  5. I just want to say, and im going back because i had a similar feature to this face editing or best shot thing on my Blackberry z10. I used this on vacation to my home town and i have a lot of family everyone was blown away by how i could do this to get a relatively good picture of all the kids looking at the camera. Of course this version is miles away from the blackberry one but it still was an impressive feature that i didnt see on any phone at the time.

  6. It's funny to hear about these amazing "new" face swap features when they're actually a newer version of what Nokia was doing with the Lumia phones back in 2012.

  7. What is a photo? The answer is two fold:

    1) "A way to save what you saw in real life" (This is where all of the algorithms for exposure, sharpness come in, cameras that small aren't quite as good as our eyes, so they need help to give us images like our eyes saw them.)

    2) Editing is necessary to remember things, not as they were, but how they should have been! So remove that bag of Doritos in the background from your shot so you don't remember it as well 🙄 (This is where the magic eraser comes into play 🙂 )

  8. I think the issue with raising prices for them is that low.price was a big reason for people to buy this phone. Now that is no longer the case so they might lose some of their buyer base.

  9. mine works on people fine, for example i could put people on top of cars.
    Does anyone know if it will have text to image generative fill like photoshop? coz photoshop even has it on their web version now which is really convenient

  10. I don't think Android 14 has much to do with the battery life as my Pixel 7a's battery still sucks under Android 14.

  11. The new UI made it quite a bother – 4 steps more to be exact – just to change the exposure and contrast values when taking a photo because they removed it completely from the viewfinder.

  12. That file size ecosystem jail thing is real, I use to think iCloud was cheap but eventually you’re gonna need more than 50gb which seems crazy for just pics and it’ll feel like a video streaming subscription service the monthly cost of storage

  13. I will go with iPhone 15 or S23 ultra with 2 years trade up plan for now and hope that in 2 years, google brings a decent processor that doesn't have throttle issues and it's AI stuff gets trained properly.
