Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
Does anybody know anything about the quick charging bricks? I'm the person who usually charges their phone overnight. But I'm worried that doing that with the quick chargers might hurt long-term battery life. Should I just use an older charger or do the quick chargers know when to stop charging?
Thanks

In my experience, they know when to stop charging so you should be just fine.

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
So far...battery life on Andy's phone seems middling. Perhaps I'll uninstall one or two apps I have on there to see if that improves things, as it is too early to really tell.
Screen is really nice though, although I think I need to change get screen protector and case combo as it's trapping too much lint. I'm very curious to see about the new USB-C headphones I ordered...

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
Man, I hate to hear that you're getting bad battery life. From what I've been reading here, I'm getting the impression that you're not liking Andy's phone too much. Sorry to hear that.

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
I am one of the few people who may prefer their camera app over the Pixel's.
The things that bug me are the lack of headphone jack which shoves Bluetooth headphones or dongles down your throat. Not so sure about the battery life yet and there are times it doesn't feel as quick as it did in the store.
Contrary to that, I do like Andy's phone so far. Screen is nice, weight in hand is good, performance is generally acceptable speed wise, very compact for my needs, and the bare bones aspect for me isn't a bad thing - it just means I've got less cruft on board.

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
Glad you are digging the phone though.
Ok. I'm glad it was a misunderstanding then. I too think it's a really good phone. It's the first smaller sized phone that I've used that made me realize that I could get by using a phone with a screen that was less than 6 inches or more. I also really like the screen on/off sounds.

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
It's ok. A DAC with a 3.5mm jack and better cameras would make the experience even better, but I knew that these weren't an option going in. I suppose if I had a V30 to compliment it right now I'd feel better, but realistically, the tablet gets the most use so I suppose juggling two phones isn't that helpful...Ok.

Okay, today was exactly a 17 hour day with over 500 miles of driving. So I will just leave these pictures here. More stuff in a day or two.

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
Installed 8 on the Sony XZ.
Hopefully it's more stable than what my wife has had to put up with.
She's not happy...
I have seen some issues while searching before installing. Apparently there are some improvements though.
I'll see how it goes...

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!
Please keep us posted. I'm curious, what issues is she having? The XZ1 Compact launched with Oreo already so I'm surprised to hear that she is having issues with it. Unless you mean another phone, of course.

Like taking on the phone...
I've heard with my phone that some apps crash, Bluetooth...
No it's the XZ1 compact. She's got freezing and restarting. Seems mostly attached to audio things on her phone.
