I’ve bought my 3rd phone on Swappa.com in 3 weeks. I’m kinda over it. But third time is the charm, right?<\/p>\n
My old phone, a Pixel 2 had this one quirk that I didn’t notice for the longest time: the audio on recorded videos is very quiet. EVERYTHING else works and I couldn’t find a fix for the audio problem so… buy a new (to me) phone!<\/p>\n
Pixel 4… I realized it didn’t have fingerprint unlock, only face unlock. Face unlock doesn’t work when you’re wearing a mask and… ugh, I would much<\/strong> rather that the phone unlocks when I push the magic button and not when it sees my face. <\/p>\n Pixel 3… the top speaker didn’t work. So I could do everything except take phone calls with it. So, a smartphone that did everything except “phone”.<\/p>\n Pixel 3… third time’s the charm, right?<\/p>\n [Update 5-2-21] [Sad Trombone] The third phone is a fail. Some kind of image stabilization problem when recording videos. Blah!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’ve bought my 3rd phone on Swappa.com in 3 weeks. I’m kinda over it.
