I need help and am looking for your experiences with the iPhone15...

I recently made the mistake of getting the new pixel8 pro and I HATE it. Nothing works,

  • the toggles in settings don't save,
  • I cannot get used to this dang keyboard,
  • nothing pairs via Bluetooth,
  • apps won't open when not on wifi, even when LTE is supposedly working
  • there is no microphone for voice to text on the keyboard (apparently there is supposed to be but it just doesn't exist on mine, I'm apparently the unlucky one)
  • the screen doesn't allow me to click links or will freeze randomly and is super glitchy
  • I toggled off google assistant when the phone is locked but it still responds to me when I'm not even anywhere near it..stupid toggles!!! I can literally go on and on. YES, there are some things I like but if the thing doesn't work for everyday normal use then it's completely useless.

ANYWAY- I'm paying the dang restocking fee to return this stupid thing and the pixel watch 2. I've been trying to pair these two google devices for 3 hours, I'm just done. And instead of throwing them across the room and shattering them (which I would find great joy in) I am instead going to opt for the return.

SO, iPhone15... What do y'all have on it? I haven't heard a lot of good but it's got to be better than this useless POS I'm currently holding. My phone was an iphone11 so I feel like the 15 is going to be a major upgrade which makes the complaints about it not being a major change from the 14 irrelevant. HELP! I'm on my last nerve over here with the P8P.

Yo hello. Found this thread looking for reviews of the Pixel 8. I have no clue why you had those issues. My friends all have pixels, including me, they work perfectly fine. Specifically, I use grapheneos on my phone and wanted to know what other people's experiences were on a pixel 8. Are you enjoying iphone 15? Is that what you ended up doing?
