I just bought myself a pixel to replace my iPhone. So I guess I’m part of that growing trend. Personally the only thing that worries me is that I’ve heard the 7 and 7a have kind of crappy fingerprint detection, and I really would love to use it. But otherwise, I’m pretty excited for this!!
Welcome to the Pixel gang then! 😁
I have a 7a and I haven't had any issues with fingerprint unlocking so far. The only times when it required me retrying many times was when my thumbs were wet but that's normal I guess.
That’s good to hear! I wanted the Coral 7a but they only had it in sky blue, so I got that one, which also looks pretty good.
