  1. talking about CONTACT iphone has the same contact with letter since the start, why that they never update it to show photo on contact but only on faverite? older people will be see better with photo contact rather than just lettter

  2. Those mood messages feature can be very useful
    Getting nuances is hard as is, it gets harder if you have auditory understanding issues or are just learning the language the other is using

  3. I love the way the apple fan boy can all out everything apple did 1st but can't do the same when android did it 1st .. it's like apple but not as great and apple did this … While android just crap on apple all day with features..

  4. This goes to show why this bouncing off multiple people works so well, as I'm zoning out on heavy emoji use, so appreciate some honesty/empathy from Marques ! in bringing in me along. I think the roll eyes basic face is the top/default here!

  5. Btw that's false about uploading an old video to have video boost. You have to force video boost prior to recording the video… otherwise it would not get uploaded for video boost. I have the feature for a few days and while it's pretty good, there are quite a few limitations.

  6. I got Video Boost working on my Pixel 8 Pro, if you don't have it yet, try clearing the cache for your camera and restarting it. Though I think their servers are horribly backed up, I took a 20 second video yesterday at 6am just to test it, and I didn't get the boosted video until 6am today. I don't see how they could roll this out to more devices without a massive boost to their server hardware.

  7. I'm still waiting for android to have bit perfect audio built in with support for 96khz hi res instead of the audio being down sampled to 48khz unless you use an app like usb audio player pro for bit perfect audio. I hope google will update youtube for support for pcm lossless and even uncompressed wav 16 bit 44.1 khz cd quality for the bare minimum as an option audio for audio as well as 96khz flac lossless audio. For lossless video for video formats like png and tiff. Also have these options available to use when being connected to wifi as an option for limited data plans or when there is limited bandwidth.

  8. Regarding Watch Unlock: Smart Unlock with the trusted Bluetooth devices was already a thing and worked with Pixel Watch (or any Bluetooth device) by keeping your phone unlocked when it was connected for something like up to four hours. Watch Unlock replaces that if you turn it on and is a lot better. Your phone is actually locked, and will unlock on demand if your watch is on your wrist and VERY near the phone, closer than just “connected nearby.” It also notifies you on your watch as it unlocks, and let's you one-tap the watch to re-lock in case of theft or whatever. So a whole lot better and I think more similar to Apple Watch/iPhone.

  9. The problem with RCS it doesn't automatically send to SMS when internet is not available, or the second person does not have internet, it's discusting since some txt are very important, if you send and after 5hours it gives you notification that txt has fail you have to send as normal txt, why???

    imassage is very good in this regard

  10. Firms should be banned to "marketing" things if they are not fully ready. or at least put a time limit (i.e., cannot market things unless within XX months, or something like that). remember the 'airpower' from Apple?

  11. @Marques @3:30 If I recall correctly, the auto info/auto picture for new contacts you're thinking of was mostly because of Google+. A couple of years after Google+ was released, Google used it as a "main hub" (quoting you, Marques) that connected all their services and apps, Gmail, YouTube, Android, Contacts, etc and since having or creating a Gmail account was required, you were forced to basically create a G+ account if you owned an Android device. Your G+ info, phone number, email address, business, YouTube channel, and if you customized it to do it your home address and all that info along with your G+ profile pic was used by default when adding people to the Contacts app. Contacts would pull all that info and establish your Contacts and even go as far as linking the person to their G+ account sometimes. Now that G+ is gone, Contacts just does a broad and generalized Google search and if your number is affiliated with a YouTube account that you own etc. it would create a default Contact picture based on that. G+ legacy is still around.

  12. Out of curiosity, what's buggy about it? 8:33
    Mine works perfectly fine for what I use it for, which is mostly watching videos, browsing & occasionally streaming Xbox games.

  13. I was wondering, Google uses tensor processor because of their AI capabilities, but in order to use video boost feature you have to send your video to Google servers? Could Google do the same locally if it used a more powerful chip like SD 8 Gen 3, which also has AI capabilities?

  14. I bet this RCS/iMessage bullshit is just for the USA users. We, people outside USA use WhatsApp, Telegram, Line, and many more messaging apps that for the USA user might think it's also bullshit.
