Not only for reading books, but also for browsing in Chrome or Reddit, for working in Notion, Google Docs, etc. Our devices' memory fills up with stuff pretty fast over time. And I just realized that with the Boox Go 7 Android e-ink tablet that's not an issue, as it supports microSD cards up to 1TB! I didn't have 1TB microSD card on me, but I've found an old one for 32GB, which also did well for the test! Check it out in the video. To be honest, I can imagine many use cases of using that feature. What's yours? #booxgo7 #microsdcard

So I'm just not sure what to do: give Google one more chance with Pixel 10, or give up on Pixels and switch to Apple, Motorola or even Nothing Phone? #pixelwatch #googlepixel #pixel8 #pixel6a #problems 🤯 First, my Pixel Watch back panel fell off after a visit to SPA center. 🤢 Then, my Pixel 8 screen turned green out of nowhere (luckily, I was able to return it to Amazon and get a full refund!). 🪫 Then, I had to switch to my older Pixel 6a, but its battery was degraded by Google with a software update to avoid overheating (Google promised me $100, but I haven't received it yet). 🐌 Now, the only Pixel device of mine is Pixel Watch 3 - 45mm, its doing alright, but I see how its getting less snappy and responsive with each software updates, as I'd bet Google shifted their focus on Pixel Watch 4. Help me out to decide if I should upgrade to Pixel phones, or forget about it and go for other phone manufacturers (maybe even back to Apple, which hardware proved reliability and works for many years). ---------------- Share your experience with Google phones & watches in the comments! 👍 Subscribe to my channel: @glimpseoftech 🔥 Watch my Pixel 9 Pro XL comparison to the upcoming Pixel 10 Pro XL: https://youtu.be/xXTwcb9Z6Hc ---------------- Chapters: 00:00 Intro: My Pixel journey 00:21 Pixel 6a: Battery Downgrade & that $100 Google Promise 1:10 Pixel 8: The Infamous Green Screen Fiasco 2:29 Pixel Watch: When the Back Panel Said Goodbye 2:50 Pixel Watch 3: Software Updates Slowing the Fun 3:19 My Wife’s Pixel 9 Pro XL & 7: The Rare Wins 3:38 Pixel 10: Dare I Buy It? 4:15 Wrap Up: What’s Your Take? ---------------- License Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 to use the track Talky Beat (artist: Twin Musicom): https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://www.twinmusicom.org/song/265/talky-beat Artist: http://www.twinmusicom.org
