For those of you who use boost for reddit, it was broken again this week. The wizards have created a fix.

how does one find the criteria for a free watch

 

I still wear my free watch but I'm not sure I use it for much of anything

 

incredible. let that same person make a deal on the folds imo.

 

I'm trying to decide if I want to upgrade from a P6P to the upcoming 9a. I don't do games; heaviest usage is via the camera and some weather/radar apps.

 

Anyone have any opinions on whether to get the 9 or the 9a, if both can be had for the same price? Seems like the 9 has more RAM and the 9a has more plastic and a bigger battery, but they seem kinda close to my dumb eyes

 

9 for more ram (future proof) and better modem for call/data/wifi connectivity etc.

I would assume cameras are lessor on the 9a as well.

 

over five years with the 4XL. Thing has been a beast

 

i'd still be there if mobile gaming hadn't necessitated a 7 pro. don't expect i'll upgrade again anytime soon now that i'm not mobile gaming. foldables seem to be progressing nicely (oppo and oneplus doing great work there) so i'm cool waiting on those to be refined.

pixels last forever. love it.

 

well this is timely. I would guess even more things are not going to be included on the A series than these 3 things clipped here.

 

I've been a FI guy through and through but this is tempting.

I'm an internet only subscriber to Spectrum and am on the FI flex plan.

 

I have too many promos going on right now to switch though

 

That's a decent deal. Fi is calling my name since I can get 2 free pixel 9s atm. The latest Verizon hike has me on the fence

 

Only good for two years from what I see. That said, if it's like my Spectrum internet account, you just threaten to cancel every year, and the retentions people give you the lowest rate possible.

 

I just got Spectrum internet like 6 months ago and have been happy. No contract!

SO supposedly you can lock in a rate with no contract on your end?

 

I was just reading the fine print in what you posted...may have misread.

 

I think the way Spectrum works is that they'll quote you a price for 2 years but if you're not happy you can leave with no penalty?

Example: Spectrum offers $69 for 2 years gig internet, no contract

I sign up can can find a better deal elsewhere a year later, bye Spectrum since I have no "contract".

 

Yeah, I've been tempted. I think with four Fi unlimited lines we're at $125 or so.

 

Bought a Pixel 9a tonight.

Had no intention of upgrading from my 6a but Google sent me a $100 off code + $100 store credit and I added my 10% Google One credit (will use both for my wife's 6 to 9 eventual upgrade). They also will do $165 for the trade-in on the 6a.

$250 for a new phone and $140 towards the 9 purchase later this year was a good deal.

 

I want to wait for the 10, but my 7's screen is starting to get loose. Might just get the 9 this week. I saw some discounts for it

 

This is my exact situation, I just didn't pull the trigger yet. I have the 6a, wife has 6 Pro.

 

7 Pro still going strong here. Planning on getting the 10, though.

 

That's hilarious, my wife has the normal 6 but is eyeing the 9 Pro. I keep telling myself I want to go back to the normal Pixel but Google keeps making it so damn cheap and I don't need a phone with high powered RAM.

 

Our free watches got an update this week

Update, Google tossed me an extra $15 on my 6a trade-in beyond the original offer, I've never had them give me anything extra on the previous 4 I've done with them since 2015.
