Well, there’s certainly no urgency in applying this update lol
these are just the Pixel specific changes, but there are a lot of other fixes in the update
Can’t wait for Verizon to push this out on September…
are non carrier phones not available in USA ? boggle my mind to buy a phone in 2023 with a carrier instead of just paying the phone in full like we do in Europe

Sure they are - you can buy directly from Google if you want. Phones from carriers are subsidized / free to hook you into a contract, but you can also just buy a phone and pop your SIM card into it.
I bought mine non-carrier, but update timing, I’ve found, is controlled by my carrier since it was activated on their service.
Can you flash a generic ROM instead?
Technically mine is. I reflashed it back from graphene bc no tap to pay was a deal breaker. Though I did just get an update so maybe me reflash fixed my long-standing update timing issue.
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.
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.
