Welcome to episode 78 of Pixelated, a podcast by NewGeekGuide. This week, Abner, Damien, and Will tackle Google’s surprise Pixel Drop, a jam-packed update filled with new features like low-power maps, notification summaries, and a Wicked-inspired theme pack. Then Will walks through his thoughts on the OnePlus 15, a device that crushes in the battery life department but falls a bit short when it comes to, well, everything else.
