First impressions of the V30 are very very positive.

Did you ever have a V20? I'd be interested in a comparison of the V30 with the V20.

I did have a V20, very briefly though. I will do a mini comparison write up tomorrow if work permits.

Sweet! I'm glad that you finally got it!

Finally got 8.1 on my original Pixel. To install or not to install is the question...

I was running 8.1.0 beta on my Pixel XL and really liked it. YMMV.

If you decide to install it, good luck.

Well, goodbye to the Android app...

Hmm that's encouraging. Thanks, I think I'll try to wait for more people to share their experience when it comes to battery life and app performance. It helps that I already checked out a book that took a while to become available on my A3.

I really hope that they don't kill that app.

In the same way we hope Apple does permanent price cuts?

Hold my breath, I won't.

On the note of my new glasses that broke, they decided to replace it.

After hearing other opinions tonight (I'll rather not go into detail but let's just say that someone there confirmed that this frame has issues), I'm going to go back there tomorrow and ask for a refund and my prescription.

I think I might be done with this provider (also overcharged me for my copay at that) but it depends how this all goes tomorrow.

Ha! That's a fair point but they would be shooting themselves in the foot to deny changes or discontinue the app.

When has that ever stopped Apple before?

I don't have a good response to your point. If they do, that's really disappointing because Shazam is so good and is a small part of the reason why I can deal with Android. Song ID is important to me, and it's the only app I know of that doesn't have to live on the home screen to identify songs.

The screen protector went on flawlessly on the V30. The Lumion case I got for it is awesome as well. I am really liking the phone and accessory combo so far. Ergonomics are excellent.

The DAC on the V30 is awesome! Worth the price of admission. I think the Essential phone might have to go. Software updates are best on the Pixel. Camera is awesome on the Pixel. I can use the V30 for media consumption especially with this awesome DAC.

I was going to ask how the DAC compares on the Essential vs the V30.
Sounds like it was worth a try after all.

I will do a side by side later. But on a preliminary basis the V30 is ahead.

Good luck. I hope you'll be able to get better spectacles elsewhere.

I'm most curious about the DAC on the V30 Vs that on the V20. I love the DAC on the V20, since it drives my headphones better than using a standalone FiiO Q1 DAC and a USB adapter with other devices.
