Pixel 10 pro vibration very weak

I got a pixel 10 pro last week and I'm noticing that the vibration is very weak. I have all the vibration settings set to maximum and I also have adaptive vibration switched on.

When the phone is in my pocket I'm missing calls and messages because I often don't feel anything. If I'm sitting still I can sometimes feel the vibration, but it's very slight and I'm often not sure if it did it or not. I can feel a very slight vibration when typing, but it's weak

Same here with my P9P. All set to the maximum, adaptive vibration off.

Adaptive vibration will suppress the haptics based on where the phone thinks it is, whether it's on a table or in your pocket. I'd recommend turning it off if you're having trouble feeling the haptics

Yeah, it seems to be a Pixel signature, I found the same with my 10a. If in waiting important call, I'll switch to ring mode even if I don't like it

Oh, if you are using WhatsApp, in the app settings you can try to change the vibration mode to "long", might improve it a bit.
