Me too! I initially I wanted to wait for the (Pixel X?) for the TSMC based processor.
but since the Pixel 9 brought QOL improvements like the Ultra sonic finger print, improved Telephoto Autofocus and smaller Pixel Pro that can be used in one hand. Top that with $625 credit and $200 BB giftcard. I couldn't hold anymore and gave in :)
Since you mentioned wireguard. I can't fight the argue to mention the remarkable app called "Rethink". This app finally let me use wirequard and local DNS blocking at the same time. it also got a big variety of settings and filters. and top of that it's opensource! I no longer need or use Blokada after I found this app.
now that I got that out of the way, I feel much better right now :)
No wonder they found fecal bacteria on shopping carts handles.
Can we redo this please with modern specs and cameras? The ubuntu edge phone.
imagine if this kickstarter reached it's goal 10 years ago... So sad.
They can and probably already do charge extra for that service.
I switched, it's definitely more complicated but it got much more options. Blokada has much more simple UI.
So can Cassia Wine play any DX9 game since you mentioned GTA IV or there are other limitations?
I think it made little difference for me in terms of battery drain
If you have a Pixel 6/7 or any phone that uses Exynos modem in general, it will make a noticeable difference in battery life. Simply because the modems are not as as efficient as the Qualcomm modems.

Amazing work!
I'm not advocating for Chinese phones in particular, but there are no other alternatives as far as I know. Samsung & Google seems to be stagnating and the only valid alternative is just Apple for us.
it's hard to recommend the pixels when my own 7Pro has dust on the selfie camera but also it's under the screen!!
I also suggested the phone to my friend when I got mine and she constantly keeps complaining about the battery. I should had told her to stick with the iPhone and be done. Thanks Google for the shitty hardware! and thanks to the Government for keeping Huawei, ZTE and Xiaomi out of the US market.
I had the P8P and i'm getting the smaller P9P. see my previous comment for more details but basically I went with the Bestbuy pre order because they were giving away $200 giftcard in top of the $625 trade in credit.
