    I'm really fucking impressed with Google - A positive wholesome thread!

    Gotta say it, but credit where credit is due - And 'Credit' plays a big part in this!

    I recently decided to upgrade to a Pixel 10 Pro XL - But it was nearly £1200.00 ! EEEKKK!

    However Google gave me a hundred pound discount off the bat, so that's good - They took my old phone (That didn't work properly - Hence the upgrade decision) for WAY over market value... Leaving me with a bill of about £600.00 to pay - So already half price!

    Then they give me £100 store credit, so I can get a magsafe charger with stand for my desk, a pack of screen protectors, and a nice clear case to protect my phone...

    They have also given me a years free 'Gemini Pro AI Service' as well. Although that in itself isn't that useful (TO ME) it also includes 2TB of cloud storage! I was getting to the end of my 'free 15GB' so that's a deal - Its worth about £288.00

    So with the store credit and the 2TB of storage taken in, its like Im only paying about £300 for the phone - But they have also extended me 2 years interest free credit to pay it off! Meaning that despite having had the phone for nearly a month now, I've yet to make a single payment on it!

    Of course, having it over 2 years, means 2 'Tax years' so I can claim a little bit of 'expenses' each year... Sweet!

    Like I say, I'm seriously impressed with Google! Infact, I've saved so much money, I've just ordered myself a new Fridge Freezer! Happy Days

    BTW, Phone is utter shit of course, but hey! Wasn't it cheap??? Who doesn't like a bargain???

        I like Google too, although for very different reasons.

          You get to a certain point where.... a phone is a phone. A laptop is a laptop. A operating system is a operating system. They are pretty much all the same at this point.

          It's just a matter of what you are comfortable with.

            I made a mistake with my math in my OP that I can't edit - I should have said:

            So with the store credit and the 2TB of storage taken in, its like Im only paying about £200 for the phone
            & I just got an email saying I won £150 on the Premium Bonds (Kinda like a UK lottery) so I'm only out £50 on a £1,200.00 phone!
