well that that was fast...

how long until second hand market becomes viable? Xmas?

cron ,

It takes a year or so until the second hand market has plenty to offer. But already a few days after the release you can find the first offers.

sunzu2 ,

is there any benefit to wait for 9 series second hand market to be competitive over buying 8 today?

cron ,

I have the Pixel 8a. For me, it’s really a great phone. As far as I know, the 8a is never going to get the “Gemini AI” software due to limited memory (does not apply to 8/8pro).

Camera, performance, screen etc is mostly similar as I heard.

Defaced ,

That’s odd, I installed the Gemini app on my 6a like a week ago. Unless you’re specifically talking about grapheneOS.

Wait for a black Friday deal. I traded in my 4a previously and upgraded to a 7a for $150

Does it receive all 16GB of RAM or is the 3GB still locked away?

Is Gemini Nano supported?

evo ,

There isn’t a chance in hell you’re getting Gemini Nano outside of the stock ROM.

Why not?

Noxious ,

Because Google is a monopolistic piece of shit and they try to lock you in to their shitty, privacy-invasive ecosystem. In my opinion it's like a hundred times worse than Apple. Only Google hardware (phones and tablets) are worth buying, but only for the strong hardware security features, definitely not for the stupid proprietary software they come with by default.

LOL are you high?

clmbmb ,

Fuck Gemini. Why would you want that piece of shit on your phone?

Cringe2793 ,

Why would you not?

cron ,

That’s why people here are discussing Gemini nano, which can run locally on your phone and not in the cloud (like the “normal” gemini model)

Exactly.

Having recorded and summarized phone calls is a pretty damn useful feature…

mholiv ,

Who knows. We do know that all of the pixel photo features work assuming you install the pixel photo app and give it NPU permissions.

The exciting bit is that we know you can deny internet access and all the picture AI stuff still works.

Who knows

Presumably the GOS devs. And anyone who owns a P9x.

Yeah, that’s why I ask. Some of this stuff works already. The on-device AI in Gboard is incredible. As is the spam detection in GMessages.
