Launched back in October 2022, the Pixel 7 Pro is the most premium smartphone offered by Google. This lineup has solved most of the issues that emerged on the Pixel 6 series, but, users are still having some odd problems such as some Pixel 7 Pro units leaving volume buttons out of the body.

Android Central’s Nick Sutrich first highlighted the Pixel 7 Pro’s volume buttons fall-out problem, when he was comparing it with the Galaxy S23 Ultra. Nick doesn’t use the Google Pixel 7 Pro as his daily driver, and he said that the fall out of volume buttons is unexpected as there’s no outsourced harm.

“After a brisk walk in the woods to take pictures for the upcoming Galaxy S23 Ultra review, I took the phone out of my pocket and noticed something strange was on the screen. After taking a closer look, I thought it looked at least a little bit like the volume rocker from the Google Pixel 7 Pro. Sure enough, I took the Pixel 7 Pro out of my other pocket, and voilà — the volume rocker was completely missing from the phone.”

Apart from this, some Pixel 7 Pro users complain about the same problem on Reddit threads and Google’s support forum. Similar to AC’s reviewer, more Pixel users reported that the volume buttons fall out, leaving their phone out of warranty as it’s a sign of external damage

Notably, the company’s official support has not acknowledged the problem, however, some users claimed that Google representatives say the issue falls out of warranty, even though there are no clear signs of damage present. Are you also having the same problem? We found the misplaced button.

Samsung Galaxy S22 One UI 6.1 AI

Samsung encountered issues with the One UI 6.1 software update for its Galaxy S22 series and has temporarily suspended it. Recently, the company started releasing the One UI 6.1 update in Korea. However, the Korean tech giant has reportedly stopped the update due to some issues and reverted to the previous version One UI 6.0.

According to the information via @Tarunvats, the One UI 6.1 update has been suspended for the Samsung Galaxy S22 series due to the lock screen issue. In addition, the software version has also changed back from S90xNKSU3EXDC to S90xNKSU3DXD3. In addition, some reports reveal that the update is paused due to a rebooting issue.

One UI 6.1 update was released to bring a host of improvements, including a more intuitive interface and advanced AI capabilities. However, the lock screen and rebooting issues have delayed these benefits for users worldwide.

Currently, it’s unclear when the One UI 6.1 update will be available again, especially for users in other countries. Samsung is likely working on resolving the issue to ensure that the update is secure and functions properly before releasing it again.

WhatsApp video sending issue

A recent update to WhatsApp for Android users has brought an issue that is preventing users from sending videos. Spotted after updating to version v2.24.9.34, the issue shows in an error message – “Can’t send this video. Choose a different video and try again.”

This issue seems to be specific to videos that are recorded or saved directly on Android devices. Whereas, videos captured by iPhones, especially in MOV format, are not being affected and can be shared without any issues. This bug is also affecting some videos downloaded from Instagram to the device’s storage.

The video-sending issue on WhatsApp is not affecting every Android user, but it has been verified on some devices, notably the Galaxy S series. Several users reported their concerns on social media platforms like Reddit, Twitter, and more to highlight the inconvenience caused by this unexpected bug.

For those who want an immediate fix to this issue, upgrading to older WhatsApp version 2.24.8.85 is a temporary solution. As of now, WhatsApp has not issued an official statement about the issue. It’s recommended to wait for a permanent solution before proceeding with any app upgrades.
