I have a Garmin cycling computer that has a "crash detection" feature. No adjustments... just on or off, and it links via BT to your phone and calls emergency contacts when it detects a bike crash. Well, it didn't work out so well. I was riding on a bumpy gravel path and just the vibration from that set off the crash detection. There was no crash or fall at all. I couldn't figure out how to turn off the automated phone call quickly enough (phone was tucked away in a bag), and it called my emergency contacts, who freaked out. So, will this phone's crash detection be triggered by vibrations? Is it even useful for cyclists?
Not all features are available in all countries. For example, The call Screening/Screen calling and VPN feature is unavailable in INDIA, which I realized after purchasing the device. I feel duped 🥺
When I click on Bluetooth on, a new screen appears and I have to click on the name of the headphones I use every day before my headphones connect to my phone. Is there a way to connect just by clicking on Bluetooth On in the drag down screen?
I am using one plus 7 pro .... now i want to upgrade my phone ..kindly suggest should i go with samsung s23 ultra or google pixel 8 pro or wait for s24 ultra ...
I have got my new 8pro but hello google is not working despite trying all the solutions provided on the net. also, I can not add a setting widget to the home screen. anybody know what happened and if those bugs will be fixed?
Nice video, saved time finding out things on my own. The AI subtitles are not in Dutch unfortunately. And a VPN for safety, in the process route EVERYTHING through Google...? Well, if I was concerned about that, I would not have bought a Pixel I guess... ;-)
I just tried to set up the VPN. It is only free for 6 month trial and then you get charged a monthly fee. At least in Canada that is what my phone indicated.
Go with the gut feeling! I have a IPhone 14 Pro Max and to be honest if I was ever to android, I am leaning towards the Pixel cause S23 is just too big in my opinion. I can barely keep my 14 pro max in my pocket and it is 6.7 inches
Now mention how many of those are available outside of US. Also if you can tell me how to get 50mpx raw photos I'd be grateful. Asking because you obviously didn't download those photos to PC.

Upgrading my phone at the end of the week, very much so looking forward to this. Switching from iPhone to pixel.
Me too
VPN, car crash and many other only works in a short list of supported countries
Think Id stick with my own VPN anyway. Google's the main reason I have it
5G, HD voice and 6GHz hotspot also region locked. Weird part is only Google region blocks those here.
Yes right
probably my biggest reviewer pet peeve is americans forgetting other countries exist
Yeah. Good old UK will make you pay for those juicy features.

Great straight to the point video. Keep up the good work
I've watched lots of videos, and this has been the most helpful. Thanks!

vpn is useless anyways
2:05 "I have no idea I'm just doing this for a UA-cam video" 🤣
Glad you caught that ;) hahahaha
That's funny
Just loved this video. Thanks for sharing all these tips!
4:43 The screenshot feature...I'm a little confused, my last phone (S8) from 2017 has this. Is this only a new feature to Pixel phones?
it's on the pixel 7 too. not everyone knows about it. Thus The video.
Great little video with handy clear tips!!
A.I wallpaper not working on the pixel 8 pro as of April 2024 UK anybody else having this problem
Working now
Excellent, thank you, some super handy tips
When I click on Bluetooth on, a new screen appears and I have to click on the name of the headphones I use every day before my headphones connect to my phone. Is there a way to connect just by clicking on Bluetooth On in the drag down screen?
Do you think that these features will be in pixel 7 series?
Very cool video btw. Very useful tips
thanks, bro!
your Video was really helpful for me!
Nice video, give more. Pro setting on camera are not enabled on Pixel 8 .. WHY!?
awesome video, learned some things that hadn't anywhere else.
Thanks for the video Mark I love your content keep up the good work 👏
How can I unable the screen calling? Or is it only available in USA?

Seems like some functions are not available in other countries.

How do I enable the now playing identification mode
Cheers for the tips 🎉
Please which would you recommend the pixel 8 pro or S23 ultra? I'm really a Samsung fan but the urge to get a pixel is so strong
Go with the gut feeling! I have a IPhone 14 Pro Max and to be honest if I was ever to android, I am leaning towards the Pixel cause S23 is just too big in my opinion. I can barely keep my 14 pro max in my pocket and it is 6.7 inches
Man I love your channel I love the way you talk
Great video my friend
Why is my google feed not full screen when swiped left in homescreen.???
Very good job sir.
thank nyou for a great video
What will fix the rank battery life in comparison to the oppoosition?
THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO
Thank you👍

Neither magic editor or video boost is available here in singapore
Google One isn't free for the security?
The crazy thing is that I'm watching this on my old pixel 4a and most of this is available on it.
thank you so much Mark , get my new pixel 8 on tue
Will quick tap work on cases???
Yes!:)
Doesn't work great with the QuadLock unfortunately, was hoping to utilise for Torch toggling
I cannot understand why on pixel phone you can’t change the shape of the icon without using a third party app?
My pixel8 pro takes about 10 seconds for magic Editor to make a change.
that's because the pictures a uploaded in the Google Cloud.
That vpn part - google is still seeing and know
Thanks
good one
get a screen lock app and bind quick tap to it. youre welcome
I appreciate the info in getting developer mode!
Good!!
just got the pixel 8 and the vpn dosnt work in my country, so its not for everyone, saaaaddd
What country is that?
@@rinkashi101 Cuba, maybe becouse this country is a dictatorship and the US have restricctions, dont know.
Please review Nothing Phone 2a
Listing advertised features does really qualify as tips and tricks
Anyone else have people just hanging up on you immediately when using Screen Calling? Like the AI voice just makes them give up instantly...
Yeah lol
the free vpn dosent work in iran
Neither can women work in your country, so why don't you fix that before complaining about a VPN not working....
I cant wait to get rid of my iphone 13 pro max. Cant wait to leave apple PERIOD. This phone looks fun.
I guess the editor is only on pro..😢
Scrolling stuttety, animations not up to standard of Samsung or OnePlus. Sold my 8 pro and went back to Samsung. Pity as it has great features.
Just turn off animations
now do pixel 6...
No tricks here ... those are features ..some, I've been using for ages. pfff! Greenhorn.
The best "trick" I'll do is when i get rid of mine. Its the worst phone ive ever had.
This phone sucks ass u can literally do all these features on any android I can't believe i got this bogus piece of garbage
No you literally can't do most of these things in other phones.
