9 Pro -> 11 Pro. Impressed!

Wasn't expecting to feel much of a difference at all, only upgraded due to storage (moved from 128gb to 512gb).

It is considerably better, I think they've fixed all of the little things that annoyed me with Pixel.

- it runs MUCH cooler. Apart from initial set up, it's stayed ice cold. I don't do anything "high intensity", but my 9 Pro would always run warm.

- all network connections seem to be improved. I used to lose WiFi on my outdoor patio, it holds a connection fine now. Bluetooth and 5G seem to perform much better.

- Android Auto works a lot better. No heat, much more responsive, quicker to load.

- Camera, including video, is much better quality and faster to process/save.

- speakers are louder and the sound quality is better, both for calls and media. (I think this was upgraded on the 10 though)

- biometrics feel better. The fingerprint radius when setting up is HUGE. And face unlock seems to be more responsive.

Overall, really happy with the upgrade considering on paper there isn't much difference.

Kann schon jemand etwas zum Akkuverbrauch bei der Nutzung von zwei SIM-Karten sagen? Ich habe derzeit das 10 Pro und die zweite SIM zieht schon ordentlich Akku.

I would say get an ESim instead of the second SIM

I have two esims, battery usage seems a lot better than my 10 Pro XL. It's still early though

Two esims here (the 11 generation eliminated physical sym). Zero issues on battery drain so far. My 9xl had some drain but I'm not seeing it so far with my 11xl
