Since there's no self posts here yet, I thought I'd bring up a question for those that decided to settle into Lemmy. Welcome to those here so far!

There's a ton of reasons to choose the a Pixel, but what's one or two major points that keep you hooked?

For me, I'm in love with the speed of the UI, and of course the ability to sideload apps if I want. Being in control of a device you spend a lot of money on makes a lot of sense.

I've always been an android user since the very early days. In the last few years I switched away to iOS. Then came along the Pixel 7 series and it was time to renew my contract. What appealed to me was the live translate feature and good cameras. My partner is not a native English speaker so live translate has been a god send in communication.

Aside from that I really enjoy the newer android experience my last was the Samsung S8. It feels less bloated compared to other manufacturers and the cameras are excellent.
