Dude if you don’t have watch it will continue to be on, how is it unfinished.

 

if I have my watch on it unlocks my mac and apple, if I don’t then I just do it manually.

 

it’s the ecosystem, which they are building, and it just works.

 

I agree, and it basically means we are co dependent on the ecosystem vs using tools we might want in the future. That's the reason why I'm inherently staying away from iPhone and Macs so far, even though they're super tempting. 

Also, Google Maps and Assistant and Lens integration is just flawless on Pixels (plus camera, a 6a gives 13PM run for its money for stills).

Yeah. Wouldn't take long to develop in Android world, and will be more interactive and customizable. 

Tossed between Pixel 6a vs i14 PM as a new phone. GA and lens integration in Pixels is really pulling me towards P6a, but can get relatively cheap 14PM from abroad soon. 

Get Ip if you plan to invest in ecosystem, if you are just looking at it as stand alone phone I would rather advise android.

My AW misses unlocking my work iPhone very often. I'll have it on wrist, look at the phone with mask on, and it'll still prompt me for the pin. Often enough that it seems half baked.

Ya, as units posted above invest in iPhone if you eventually want to invest in ecosystem, I always wanted to do it so I bought the iPhone or else I would have probably settled with Samsung ultra.

6A should cost 27-30k in the upcoming sale. Between 6A and 14 PM, ofcourse 6A is more VFM.

My iPhone almost always unlocks even if I have a mask on, heck even if I am wearing light coloured sun glasses. iPhone’s Face ID is unparalleled. Family member have Samsung and they are mostly struggling. Never had an AW so don’t know about that but the Face ID is *chef’s kiss*

Man. Super tempted. Some features are exclusive to Tensor chips and the pricing is great. 

Add in some exchange discount, and this becomes all the more sweet. 

 

Who has 6a on IVG ? Any real life reviews ?


Yep it is really tempting. But my 4a got new life after the Android 13 update lol.

Really impressive new phones from Motorola. Especially the Edge fusion which can be had for 36k after discounts. It blows the pixel 6a out judging from the initial reviews. Really liked the overall design and that new beige color. 

 

Anecdotal, but a few relatives had terrible issues within months with the new Moto phones. I love their clean skin and design, but long term ownership is still a bit messy. Next best to Pixels for clean Android though.

If it is anything worth putting the Edge 30 has been running flawlessly till now.

Cracks in the matrix

 

 

You need to redo all your widgets if you change the wallpaper ? Wut ? 

And depth effect doesn't work with widgets on ? Wut again ? 

 

Edit: Seems they f**ked up the Books app as well. GG Apple.

Yeah, but they launch late, if at all. I like the ZenP9, but it’s not launching in India anytime soon, right ?

 

Anyway, Mkbhd is not a fan on Apple’s AoD. Gotta make news. 
 


Edit: The review is still pretty great. Consistently putting great stuff.
