Oh thank you. I forced the update due to your heads up so thank you for that.

I've found the radios on the phone to be pretty bad compared to my previous pixel 6a. Bluetooth is especially patchy, do you think this is a hardware issue or something that might be improved one day?

I was grateful for the immediate delete button for screenshots you took accidentally whilst trying to lock the phone lol

Bad radios? Interesting. Mine performs better (subjectively) than my 8 Pro.

The restart bug is still there btw. πŸ˜† Just had mine restart ten minutes ago.

Oh man yeah, the reception in general where I am in the UK is pretty poor. If I try to use it around skyscrapers or a train station or something I can basically forget it, both for network and Bluetooth connections.

I'm planning to keep this device going until about 2030 minimum so I'm stuck with it now anyway

Condolences. I hope some future update magically fixes it for you.
