    If you have a USB C to C cable handy, that’s also going to work to charge other devices, loses less power to the transfer, is quicker, and also more convenient since you can keep using both phones. Of course you’ll often not have a cable, but if you do it’s probably gonna be the better option

              Pixels have a tendency to have different features depending on the phone you use. Even when it’s the exact same model and firmware you can find some missing features.
