8 hidden Pixel features for smarter calling
Pixel phones are filled with efficiency-enhancing Google intelligence, and one area that's all too easy to overlook is the way the devices can improve the act of actually talking on your cellular telephone.
Talking on your phone, you say? What is this, 1987?! Believe me, I get it, Vanilli. We're all perpetually busy creatures these days, and the timeless art of speaking to another human on your mobile device can seem both archaic and annoying.
But hear me out: Here in the real world, placing or accepting (or maybe even just avoiding) a good old-fashioned phone call is occasionally inescapable. That's especially true in the world of business, but it's also apparent in other areas of life — from dialing up a restaurant to confirm your carnitas are ready to dodging your Uncle Ned's quarterly regards-sending check-ins. (No offense, Ned. I never dodge your calls. Really. Send my regards to Aunt Agnes.)
