While the quick tap feature is neat, it does not work consistently for me on my Pixel 8 Pro. I've set it to take screenshots when I tap but, if I'm on a call for example it doesn't work. I'm guessing this is something that can get ironed out in future updates though. I'm aware older Pixel models have gotten much better after a couple of updates so I'm excited for the future!

At first I thought the quick tap might be kind of cool, but I discovered on my Pixel 8 Pro that it can be activated sometimes with one tap. That led to accidental activations, so I no longer use it.

Same situation with the pixel 8. For me the problem was the case, remove the case and the feature works well. Honestly I prefer a functional device rather than a double tap feature but never mind

Would love to see a Pixel 8/8 Pro specific video

Thanks for the great video. I did not know about the double tap feature on my Pixel phone.

5:45 i would never have thought of someone playing Minecraft with mouse and keyboard on a phone 😂

I completely forgot about the Gboard customization feature! I immediately went in and changed it. On a similar note to this video, I've spent a lot of time with my 6 pro trying to optimize battery consumption, it would be cool to have a tips video on battery, connectivity, etc...

Yeah, as I delved into all the settings, I realized there are many ways to optimize the battery performance. So many different ways I'm sure some users are not aware of all of them.

Really nice video Jordan. I really liked that tip about that USB A to C dongle. I use it to transfer files from my Pixel 8 Pro onto a pen drive.

Very nice video!! Thanks 😊. I'd like to see a pixel 8 unknown features video!!

Was that a ph-1 i spotted? I loved that thing.

Awesome!

Where do you get your wallpapers from at the 0:50 mark? They look great!

May I ask where you got the wallpaper at 1:26? Thank you!

This was very helpful, I just bought my first pixel Thursday and I've been trying to learn the different tips and tricks to it. I love the phone and believe I have become a true pixel fan. I don't think I'd ever go back to apple

@ 5:14 is that an essential phone you're plugging it into?

Nice love on my Pixel Fold

I wholeheartedly feel that, pixels offer the best android experience ❤

Any changes for the " Pixel Pro 8 " ?

Hopefully this 2024 a feature drop will arrive that allows you to prevent access to the settings when the Pixel is locked 🙃🙃🙃😤

Any changes for the Pixel Pro 8 ?

Would like an integrated feature to remote control a laptop remotely from anywhere .

Pixel work well with Matter smart devices 💡🔌

I think you missed pixel rules feature !

Sooo is it worth trading in an iPhone 14 Pro for a Pixel 8? Regret swapping to Apple last year.
