A few months ago, I took a step I should’ve taken several years ago and switched the rest of my immediate family to Pixel phones. My husband was already sporting and loving his Pixel 7 Pro, and my mother-in-law was using my old Pixel 6a, but my mom, dad, and aunt were all still carrying older OnePlus or Samsung phones. Since they’re not interested in state-of-the-art tech, I dug into the archive and found a Pixel 7a, 6 Pro, and 7 Pro to upgrade them to.
Going in, I knew this would be a big departure for them. It would’ve been much safer to stick with a familiar Android skin without trying to introduce them to something new, but the learning curve turned out to be not as steep as I expected. Now, I’m just reaping the benefits of this change.
