They’ve been extremely hit-and-miss. My wife is still on her px5, and I upgraded from a px3 that I had loved to the original 6, which was atrocious in so many ways. I made the ostensibly lateral move to a galaxy s22 (a free trade-in at T-mobile) after just about 3 months and have been so much happier.
The 6 was absolutely not ready for prime time (bugs) when it launched, and that was a horrendously huge phone to be the smaller one in the line. Hopefully they’ve fixed that with the 7.
I do miss the appearance of that phone’s software. Samsung is definitely way behind on android theming.
I have had a 6 since launch and never had a single issue with it 🤷🏼♂️

I’d just really love my pixel to actually adapt to the fact that I sleep at 3pm until 10pm so when I plug in my phone during that time I don’t need it to charge in one hour.
What happens when you sent an alarm for 10pm before going to sleep? Does it slow-charge then?
I have the daily alarm for 10:05 p.m. and when I plug the phone in anytime between 3:00 and 4:00 when I go to sleep it generally doesn’t adaptive charge. It just says it will be charged in an hour and 40 minutes. Of course, since I posted this yesterday, it did not adaptive charge but today it did so it seems pretty damn random.
My z fold does that, is that not an android feature? It stops at 80 until like an hour before I wake up. My schedule is fucked too, asleep at 7pm to wake up at 3.
Yeah my pixel 6 pro has adaptive charging, which just means it’ll charge at a slow speed so it’s full just before my alarm goes off.
