Please, please bring back wireless charging. I hate my Pixel 7 pro so much and want to go back to OP, but I can’t use a phone without wireless charging.

I’m in the same boat. Just finished Starter Villain and it just doesn’t feel like the same level of writing. It’s not bad - just instantly forgettable.
GOS cuts out the few reasons to even use pixel like call screening and Google camera. I hate Google as much as the next guy, but giving them money and then severely disabling your phone to avoid their services makes no sense to me.
Not many Android options out there. Basically just pixel or oneplus. Oneplus is dead to me until they bring back wireless charging and pixel is a trash phone with endless bugs and garbage battery life. Samsung ruined excellent hardware with garbage software with ads and bloat ware.
So anyway, if OP bring wireless charging back in next generation, I’ll tolerate a few non removable apps to use a phone that actually lasts all day and has working Bluetooth.
Horrible battery. Doesn’t last even close to a full day. 18:00 here and my phone is at 6%. Will be dead in <1 hour. Was fully charged at 8:00. Typical use. I don’t play games on my phone.
What’s worse is it takes forever to charge compared to OP. 20W max. Wireless charging is only useful overnight. Takes like 6 hours.
Constant, fucking Bluetooth issues. I mean constant. There’s a bug with Samsung watch so every time I answer the phone caller cannot hear me until I cycle through speakers. Even without watch connected you never know which BT device will connect when answering the phone (if any.) Sometimes nothing at all works. My personal favorite is it will sometimes randomly switch to a different BT device mid call. I’ll be on headset and will suddenly start hearing the call through my watch.
Android auto works like shit. Wired is sort of tolerable, wireless barely works. Interrupting audio, constant disconnects or just refusal to connect.
Absolute shit reception. I didn’t think it was possible to have worse reception than iphone, but pixel is so much worse.
Overall 3/10. Love the spam call filtering and camera, but rest is my worst experience with a phone ever.
P. S. I’m down to 4% while I typed this message. Fuck pixel. Buy something else.
