I have a pixel 7

Currently using Cambridge Melomania headphones, so maybe I should get the pixel headphones? Are the pros worth it? Do we think they'll go on sale in Dec?

Given that 8's are out, combined with Black Friday in less than a month, could be worth a phone upgrade since your 7 still has resale value.

Good option I hadn't thought of, but I tend to buy a phone outright and then use it till it fails

I do as well, but starting to rethink that game plan. I'm on a 6Pro, battery life is terrible even after a replacement battery (OEM), but now that's it's 4 phones behind, it's way harder to sell, and won't bring in anything meaningful to fund the next one. I think this was the dud for the 6 series. My 5a was a piece of shit as well, yet my 4a is running all my houses IoT apps I don't trust and going strong as ever. They definitely have a dud every couple phones.

Wife breaks my balls (iPhone) but she also paid $1200 vs my $400 when I got this on a black Friday deal, I'm still winning that one, plus, we have super duper high tech advanced features, like moving an icon out of the way of my kids face on my wallpaper! Ahahahahha.
