you mean split screen mode? look that up in android 13 if using latest version.
Nope. Not split screen. Two Facebook, two messenger. Samsung supports it.
I'm using Parallel Space
WIth MIUI it's called Dual App support. A quick google it appears this is not a function of stock Android 13. This is what we get for 'clean' android experience. :p less functions.
That stuff would waste your battery I remember spilt screen in pixel 3xl , pointless
not supported by stock Android that this phone has but there are workarounds to add support
App cloning feature coming to android 14.

Is it an upgrade from S21 or a downgrade overall?
I am also interested to know.

Samsung Galaxy S21 vs Google Pixel 7: At a glance
Here's a quick summary of some reasons why you might choose either the Samsung Galaxy S21 or the Google Pixel 7 over the other:
The Pixel 7 is $200 cheaper than the Galaxy S21.
The Pixel 7 has a bigger battery and longer battery life.
The Galaxy S21 has two SIM card slots.
The Galaxy S21 has a faster display refresh rate.
The Galaxy S21 has a telephoto camera and can record video up to 8K at 24 fps.

S21 has single SIM slot
Have stock in my local store (Joondalup WA) but cannot justify an upgrade from the S10+.. fresh software would be nice but no headphone jack hurts.
Have you considered upgrading to Bluetooth earphones? They are so much better.
I have both and for sound quality they are not.
Are the Telstra store models stuck with a Telstra ROM? As I'd rather not rely on Telstra for updates.
Don't think so, can someone else confirm?
Unlocked, same ROM as everyone else on the Pixel
Just received mine, 256GB. Ordered Friday 9am and received an SMS at 12:30 saying product was on backorder, but then at 7am they said it was coming today. I'm in Sydney area.
Just received mine. Ordered Friday 9am. I'm in Melbourne area.
what colour did you get mate?
256gb only comes in black.
damm ordered mine 7:30am on friday and they're saying 3-6 weeks…
@tanzy: I ordered 10.31am Friday and received today, but I ordered via Telstra Plus so I am not sure if they have separate inventories…
Cedar Case for Google Pixel 7 6.3-Inch (2022), Shockproof Phone Bumper Cover, Anti-Scratch Clear Back (HD Clear)
$4.99 on amazon, can recommend
I know I'm being lazy, but would you have the link for this ( might save 20 seconds or possibly minutes lol ).
All good, was only 20 seconds this time, think this is it:

thats it mate, sorry i forgot to link!
Thanks OP!
Went into Optus Highpoint Maribynong VIC this morning and they price matched the 256GB (still in stock).
How did they price match when showing no stock for 256g on Telstra site?
Definitely luck… thought someone else might get lucky too, if they try.
I got it done on chat
lucky. lady at Optus told me she can't price match if it's out of stock at Telstra.
Damn, I'm in the market for a new phone and want to go back to a Pixel. Need 256gb or higher though and none available.
If you're already with Telstra, you should be able to go into Telstra store and ask to buy this phone. Store stock will vary.
Some people have had luck with Optus price match but personally I wouldn't count on it.
Some people have gone in store and got them to back-order it for this price
Not true, it could only be done when it was on back order. Tried it and they said once it is OOS, it cannot be ordered even at store.
Varies store to store. I was still able to purchase in store even after it went out of stock online
Ordered on Friday through Telstra Rewards store while it was in Back Order status. Order was shipped later that same day and arrived today.
So much for back order?
They may have separate inventories, mobile plan outright vs Telstra Rewards store? Some guy up here ordered earlier than me and still on the back order for 3-6 weeks, but I ordered 10.30am same day via Telstra Rewards and still got it today.
I wanted the white but only black left. Does anyone know if it'll be possible to exchange at a Telstra shop if I don't open it? Obviously if they magically get stock again.
Just put a cover on it?
Ordered a black one on Friday to replace my 5yo OnePlus 6T, and it got delivered today. Also ordered a white one on Friday for the Mrs but received a backordered email instead. Now need to explain to the Mrs why I bought a new phone only for myself.
My excuse is to buy this pixel for upgrade to iphone 14 or 15 trade in deal if ever any for mrs iphone xs max, with hope that this pixel would be valued for at least 500. What mrs would not know I may keep the pixel and get a new or used iphone 14 pro max deal outright, so still a win win for both of us . 😅
Do you miss the OP6 ? i did the same thing, only lasted a few weeks , listed the pixel on marketplace, and brought a op11 , seriously missed the OnePlus eco system..
Happy with Pixel 5. And still having massive FOMO because of the 1000 upvotes.
I actually didn’t expect this deal to do so well tbh
Either to buy now or risk it for the Google Store anniversary ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Pixel 5 for lyfe!
i can't checkout black 128gb back order and i'm getting boot loop after logging into Telstra ID, is it just me or is it really over?
Its not over, it just looks like you have a problem with your Telstra ID.
I had the same thing and gave up trying to deal with chat support. I ended up asking a kind friend to buy for me.
Got mine today. Ordered via Telstra Plus Sat morning.
Ordered Friday night. Has not shipped :(
I got last minute FOMO, so just placed an order to replace my pixel 4XL
same on price match with optus
rip they didn't let me price match online
1 minute to the Google Sale and we find out if Google have similar prices to this deal …. Did I win? or did I lose? … I'll know in 30 seconds….
Telstra won, Google loss
Ozbargainers are the champs. OP is King , enjoying yhe counting up of likes beating other records here !!
The real winners are the friends we made along the way.
Keen for the meetups this year for the ACT gang
WOW! Pixel 7 is $750!
What a saving!
yep, ouch.
Funny everyone waiting and expecting it to be under $500 haha. JB hi-fi is pretty competitive, pre-realease they did it for $700 plus gift voucher, free google stuff and trade-in voucher.
Telstra 1 Google 0. What a shame.
Telstra a better company obviously
only 25% off 😢 at least a happier bank account 🙂 P4XL for another year me thinks
Didn't get a Telstra ID?
Google sale is 749.25. Was worth it🤣
Just got mine! Thanks so much folks. Telstra ID seems to be a must though. So I bought a 2$ SIM card from Coles and activated without a plan. Created Telstra ID and bought the phone. Total cost $2+$499.50.
That's as simple as it should be :).
Great deal.
I did the same thing but didn't allow me to buy without active any plans. Why is that? Do you know.
Still waiting on mine, hoping that they don't cancel all the non-Telstra Plus orders on back order :-(
That would be a lot of sales and a lot of money to throw away.
28d price protection claim approved, boom.
$100 back in the sky rocket.
Ordered mine at around 12pm on Friday, 256gb obsidian, received the backorder text message at 2:29pm. Still haven't received any updates on my end. I'm in the Sydney area
Same. Online chat couldn't really give an ETA but alluded to 2 weeks for restock. Added though - 'could be more could be less'.
Can't fault the answer - they said they couldn't tell me to begin with so I asked what other back orders have been like.
Hope it doesn't get cancelled :(
Also ordered around 12pm but 128GB white, haven't received any updates either.
Same here. No updates since Friday, which an email and SMS saying the order had been confirmed.
We're no strangers to Telstra,
You know the services and so do I (do I)
A Pixel Seven's what I'm yearning for,
You wouldn't hear this from any other line
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling,
Got a Pixel 7 256GB on the backorder stand
Never gonna give up on you,
Never gonna let you down,
Never gonna run around and forget you,
Never gonna make you fret,
Never gonna say "not yet",
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
We've been waiting for so long,
Your heart's been aching but
You're too eager to say it's wrong,
Yet, in Telstra's hands, our trust is strong.
Find someone who looks at you like @Tommohalby looks at Pixel 7
I was told by the sales rep that it could take at least 1-2 weeks for the order to be shipped. guess we just have to wait
I purchased Snow Color and receive Obsidian Color instead… I can't seem to find order receipt/confirmation too. Is there any way to get the receipt/order confirmation?
You beauty ! Thank you ! I must be blind for not finding that !
Does it come with like a film screen protector on the screen already like Samsung phones do?
Nope
Any film protector that someone can recommend inexpensive but still does not affect fingerprint sensor in any way and is case friendly with like Spigen cases?
I'd be looking for one as well, but I'm holding off until mine actually ships from Telstra as I don't wanna get burnt with having to return a case and screen protector.
Hit view all and search this thread, posted a few times back a bit.
Put this one on my wife's phone with a spigen thin fit case: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/152767194989
Looks good, no issues so far after 4 months. Goes close to the edge, but not overly. Finger print scanner works fine without having to increase sensitivity.
@Make it so: 3 for a 10er is the right price, i paid that for the AmFilm ones (also recommend and comes with a template).
So… anyone got insight into when backorders will be filled?
Nope. Nothing since last Sunday
I purchased on the Saturday, it said then stock was expected within one to two weeks, I noticed the following day the expected stock disclaimer had changed to up to four weeks or more.
We could be in for a long wait.
Just received a text now from Telstra apologizing for the delay and advising as soon as stock is available they will let me know - no timeframes in the text though.
Hi Jack Meoff, thanks for choosing Telstra. We know you're eagerly awaiting your order and we're sorry for the delay. As soon as stock is available, we'll let you know. Order reference: T24673566643354
See what happens I guess….
Received same SMS. Not confidence inspiring.
@hippo2s: I'm confident, if they didn't think they could get hold of any more stock they would have listed it as 'sold out' as they did with the 256GB model.
Huh lol
