I kinda want the pixel but the S24 has a free Galaxy Watch 7 with it and considering my watch is kinda old now (3 or 4 years old) it's very appealing to get S24, but I have had issues with Samsung before with the charging port (2 times) so I really want to try the pixel, and it also has better battery which I want too.

I can't afford to buy a watch separate so what should I do?

The watch I have now is I think the Galaxy gear 3?

Either take the Samsung deal or buy a cheaper phone of either brand and use the saved money to buy the watch.  You can also see if your carrier is offering a deal for a free watch with new activation of an accessory line.  You can also see what the trade in value for your current watch is against the 7.

I would recommend buying better quality USB C cables. Inexpensive low quality cables are never worth the price you pay.

Ordered my s24+ December 26th 2024 might see it in February at the rate things are going. No one answers from Corporate as they no longer value us as customers.

I just bought 2 phones, a Pixel 8 and a Samsung S24 FE. Pixel 8 was not very intuitive for the most basic tasks including powering off and answering calls. I miss the power On and Off buttons on the back of my LG Stylo 3. S24 FE is better with those features, but there is one thing I hate about it, the CHARGING. It takes 4-5 hours to charge and it quickly loses its charge, even after uninstalling many apps I didn't need.  I also was using Data Saver and Dark Mode.

The Pixel 8 is smaller and that's one reason I went with S24 FE. It's abit larger, but not that much and has a larger battery so it should discharge less than the Pixel phone, but it doesn't. The Pixel charges much faster like within 30 minutes and doesn't lose its charge quickly.

I trying to decide which one to return and which one to keep. What do you think I should do?

NOTE: I used regular charging cables that came with the phones to charge from my PC desktop USB-C port.

For which one to keep, its up to you but charging shouldn't be that slow try another wall outlet your PC likely isn't supplying a lot of output.

you need original samsung cable and an original 25w samsung travel adapter to fastly charge the phone, make sure that fast charging option is on in the settings. regular cables and a pc are not able to fast charge the phone. make sure you do the steps above . then it'll take like 1h at most to fully charge
