Photos Missing From My Android Or From Google Photos...

I hate to admit it, but iPhones are just better in terms of software and hardware that's well integrated. Everything just works.

Yeah...the flagship phones are roughly a $1000 bucks for a reason....the under $200 dollar phones are the ones you give your grade school kid to text you with...

And here you guys are complaining about appraisal fees...

Using the 5 now. I'm cheap - $200 is a lot of money for me to spend on a phone...

Nothing wrong with going to Swappa and picking up a used flagship or iPhone!

Even a 3 generation back iPhone or flagship is better than a brand new A15...just saying.

I always love it when Pixel releases a new version. That means the 3rd or 4th iterations past get more reasonable. My grandkids have nicer phones than I do.

The Samsung skin and pushing of their own apps totally ruins android. Have to use Pixel if using android.

On an overseas trip I bought one of the flagship android Chinese phones (the nice ones we don't have access to here). On paper it was great, but it glitched like crazy. Ditched it for an ancient hand me down iPhone XR after it got into some weird android update loop. Still using that iPhone XR till this day - it's been flawless.

Pixels are the best androids.

Agree, my Pixel was basically flawless as well. Best android phone, hands down. Similar to how Microsoft's Surfacebook is the best. Quality is better when manufacture has control over both hardware and software.

Lol..... if you're brand new Pixel was glitching, you'd be complaining to the place of purchase just like appraisers are complaining about AMC fees.

The cell phone is just like your main computer. It "has to" have the right processor, operating system, amount of ram, graphic card, etc. for it to fly so as not to be disruptive during your work day.

Everyone here knows what it's like to work on a inferior computer. Crashing, glitching, grinding to get to the next window, program, web page. When you finally get your new one, go through all the trouble to load it with all your programs and get it set up the way you want, you wonder why you hadn't done it sooner.

IMO if you are going to use your cell phone for appraising, it's justified to get a high-end model to be reliable.

Me, I use a Sony Cybershot point and shoot set to 5 megapixels for appraising. When I get home, take out the SD card insert it in the slot in the computer and instantly my photos are there. It's a no-brainer.

I still use a Canon SX70. Old habits die hard.

Wow.... that's like carrying a camcorder around your neck. You guys are hardcore.
