As phones get better, the upgrade experience is less satisfying ime, as most phones now do everything most people need / want them to, and do it quite well.
When I got a OnePlus 4T about 4/5 years ago, that was a big step forward. When I replaced that with a Pixel 5 it was just a case of: it does the same stuff a bit better.
The camera and photo processing was the biggest improvement. Night mode on the pixel is amazing.
Just upgraded from a pixel 5 to a pixel 7 pro. Apart from the difference in size/weight feel, it doesn't really feel like a new phone.
I just transferred everything over, which I wouldn't usually do and that probably has something to do with it.
I don't use a lot of apps.
Anything special I should install that will change my life for the better and make me feel like the upgrade was worth it?
I like widgets but only really use them for calendar and email at the mo.
I'd like a widget to do list one but I'm trying to force myself to use Notion (which I hate) and the widgets there are crap.
I run a video/film business so am open to business admin stuff, receipts, mileage, timesheets etc. Or more video centric stuff like release forms, sun position/times, camera control, viewfinder simulations, timecode etc.
At the moment I've got LinkedIn, Reddit, Instagram, HubSpot and a few parking apps and feel fairly underwhelmed.
