I'm on the October update and I'm thinking of optong in to beta. I'm guessing I can't because I'm on a newer build. If I were to get in anyway which build would I get? Qpr2 or qpr3?

I just replaced my watch 4. It was protected by the Spigen rugged armor. I like the protection and the rugged look but I noticed it really did some damage to the dome display from the case wrapped around it. I'm using the 5 in the same case but I know the same damage is inevitable. Any recommendations for a case?

I was able to finally get this working. It had been greyed out the first few days owning the device. Turning it on when my device was below 30% I was able to get close to 50% in 30 minutes as advertised. I do feel like this is the normal charging behavior with extreme charging off, as the lower the battery percentage the longer it charges at higher watts. When I turn it on at 45% it still takes forever to charge the top half of the battery. I even went to the extreme and kept the device on an ice pack to keep the device cool at 20°. Checking Ampere it was charging at 10w around 80% and 5w when it got over 90%. The other part of this charging debacle is I have yet to see it charge over 22w. This is with EC on and off. On a positive note wireless charging 22w was also obtainable. The problem with that is like any wireless charging it gets warm fast and the speeds throttle fairly quickly. All of my observations were done with Google branded chargers and cables to ensure the correct speeds.

Edit: I'm using the 67w dual charger for wired charging and the pixel stand 2 for qi 2.2 wireless. Both cover the specs for exactly what I need to get the fastest speeds possible.

Think we will get identical hardware this time around minus the obvious differences? The 10pro xl had a few upgrades I wish the smaller pro came with like faster charging and faster storage. I want to stay with the smaller device. I like the smaller form factor.

I googled with no definitive answer. I'm on the April security patch, can I side load the 17 beta 4 OTA?
