Maybe try changing the Wi-Fi band ("Wi-Fi Hotspot" -> "Speed and compatibility" menu)? Check also if you get the same slow internet with USB tethering.

That's one of the annoying parts of the stock OS (unless you can ignore the search bar), it's an unremovable part of the default Pixel launcher. To get rid of it you'd have to install a 3rd-party launcher, or just install GrapheneOS 👀
Some of the leaked marketing shots: ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/74d3724c-cc43-4f09-bda2-c61ed61d2463.png)
>The ad shows Google’s new mid-range device in blue and off-white color variants, and it’s abundantly clear that it is the Pixel 8a. For one, **the device in question has two cameras and a blue color, something the standard Pixel 8 wouldn’t fit. It’s also lacking a microphone near the cameras.** The ad in question: ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/983afe7e-57e6-453b-a699-368f87b2761b.png)

Have you tried contacting the manufacturer of your hearing aids? It's worth a shot and you don't have much to lose, + they're probably not even aware that there's an issue with them.

Do you still have that issue? I have Pixel Buds A and I haven't had any problem with my ear buds on GrapheneOS.

That chapter was peak SxF, Anya finally trusted someone with her little secret and Damian was too dumb to realize it's actually at least plausible.

Out of curiosity, which one did you get?
But yeah, a case is definitely the first must-buy (went case-free for years, changed my mind recently as I dropped my P7a on concrete for the third time 🙃). No MagSafe ring for mine, but I got a Ringke Onyx case. It's pretty cheap, looks great and even makes your phone much more pleasant to hold.

In the 2000s we had AdSense. So now we're getting... AISense?
Results look disappointing for the Pixel 8 Pro in this test as it lands last for battery life and does a bit better than the iPhone 15 Pro Max in terms of charging speed. About how they perform their battery life test: >This is done by using a light meter to calibrate their displays to 150 nits, then running a script that simulates web surfing over 5G cellular connectivity. This is done until their batteries are depleted.

Whenever I get lazy I just throw some seasoned chicken drumsticks in my airfryer and then add some Uncle Ben's rice. Almost 0 effort.

There's also group C which I was part of, you just say that you just pooped or scratch your butt whenever they ask you to load/unload and they'll immediately offer to do that for you instead.

Looks like the previous render leak was (unfortunately) spot on about the camera changes.

Thanks for the heads up!
*tl;dr*: a testing certificate for a Google phone going by the model name "GH2MB" (similar to those of the Pixel 7a) is suggesting that the Pixel 8a might be getting a 4,942mAh battery. For a comparison, the Pixel 7a has 4,385mAh, the 8 has 4,575mAh and the 8 Pro has 5,050mAh.

It still works using just a web browser. Some might just prefer a native app, which Google is currently rolling out.

I do forget sometimes that I'm using uBlock Origin 👀. Thanks @JimboDHimbo@lemmy.ca for the link!
*tl;dr* about the expected privacy feature: Pixel owners would be able to quickly see which apps have access to the camera or the microphone.

I love it, I use it on all of my devices at home and it works flawlessly.
Just Android Police giving a shout-out to GrapheneOS :-) *(see also our [previous thread](https://lemmy.world/post/9432155) about GrapheneOS)*
