💲💰 is it worth it ?

 I would definitely buy this phone again for $160. But it's really hard for me to spend over $400 on a phone. Granted they're incredible computers. They're generally reliable; they generally all have the same stuff, meaning a phone, text, email, apps, a camera, microphone, and speakers, and of course that most critical of all components a battery. For $100 you get basically the same stuff on an below average phone that you get on a $1,500 phone. The screen on this phone has a very tiny defect, which makes me wonder if the reason these phones were on sale is they all have the same defect. A glass screen protector will not lie perfectly flat on the screen. But a plastic screen protector works just fine. So for $160 people probably aren't going to send it back. They will either put up with the glass screen protector that doesn't fit quite right or skip using a screen protector. Every screen needs a screen protector. Just put one on there.

Somewhere between $200 to $250 this phone would stop being a great deal. In fact it might be one of those deals where you send it back. But for 160 bucks...

spirits

  It's becoming evident that the planet is saturated in spirits and, dare I say it, demons. They really are everywhere. If you get an uneasy feeling, you most likely are under attack. They are real, it's not some psychological anomaly or left over distant frustration from your childhood.                                            

pixel 2 xl , 3xl, 4xl

 I currently own a pixel 2 XL. At this point it is a 5-year-old design. It still gets pretty good reviews on the internals even for being so old. Apparently some of the progress has kind of slowed down. Processor improvements and even camera improvements are minimal. It took excellent pictures 5 years ago and it still takes excellent pictures today. Having said that the pixel 3 and pixel 4 are starting to come down in price quite a bit. So let's talk about that. The pixel 3 has some improvements but nothing major. The big thing that everybody points out between the pixel 3 and the pixel 2 is the screen. The pixel 2 screen is somewhat faded looking compared to the typical phone. It's still very sharp the colors are still in color and it works just fine, but really it doesn't look like something that used to cost $950. Still that's what they sold it for. So that alone really doesn't make it worth upgrading to pixel 3. The pixel 3 screen is slightly bigger but the pro...

pixel 2 XL camera focus

  For almost a year the camera focus has been irritating at times. Especially when taking close up pictures. The camera would focus on stuff that was further away because it took up more of the field of view. Then finally this morning the thought occurred, why not click on what you want in focus and see what happens. And here are the results.   Notice June 13 is out of focus.   By clicking on 13 the focus automatically changes and then take the picture.   I'm hopeful that Jesus will figure out some way to get those Google guys into heaven.    Here is an example of a fantastic picture ruined by focus problems.    Armed with the new knowledge of resetting the focus more fantastic pictures can be produced.
