Why can't it just do video and audio ober usb-c display port

I don't understand why they placed the front camera lower than the Pixel 8. So now you have a thicker status bar. C'mon Google!
@ColinYKL14 күн бұрын
It's because of the wider view and the higher megapixel count that requires a bigger camera so that's why it's a bit lower than the pixel 8. But even then I think it's still a thick status bar. Now it's even thicker...

The camera is much bigger on the 9 series compared to the 8 series.. that's how much they added (the size of the new camera)..

@@RaySchneider thanks for watching! Yea after restarting the phone it was great. Thinner status bar with no notch but eventually the notch would appear. You could restart your phone again and it would disappear again. Might be annoying tho

How did you add lockicon on your homescreen? I got the update yesterday on my pixel 7 and my fingerprint scanner went from slow to really fast - I love it. Though I'd also love to connect pixel to my external monitor via HDMI, right now it doesn't support pixel 7. Great video by the way.

Hi, it's an app called one click lock screen. play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rk.android.app.lockscreen I use it to just turn off screen with one tap. I miss the double tap feature to turn off from other phones so I use this instead! Thanks for watching!

U can just use scrcpy to use it on a laptop, and indeed that desktop mode is still the same from Android 10 up till now (15). And I can confirm as long as the phone can have an adb access and at least on Android 10 it can run just the same desktop mode (kinda), all u need are the phone with developer mode enabled, and a laptop with scrcpy installed/downloaded.* Based on my personal experience.

Hey bro, I see your hustle and think you can be great. You gotta make some videos with interesting topics which can be used as hooks to get people to watch videos. Topics like. 1. Why do women prefer men with IPhones 2. Features that IOS or Android need back 3. What do you think phone companies should do to innovate and what you think phones will look like. 4. Make comparison videos between android and IPhone PS. I work in Marketing

@ramr7051 no it's only the Dex for PC is getting retired which is different from the actual Dex you get when plugged into a monitor. Dex for PC is a software you install on your Windows computer that allows you to do phone things on your Windows computer. They are replacing that with Link to Windows I believe which is made by Microsoft.
