My pixel works fine along with my Nexus 5x and 6. With the new pixel 2 around the corner are you buying it? I hate to be the stereotypical American who consumes in excess and buys things they don't need but I know ill resist for a month or 2 then cave in.

I'm getting sucked into reading the stories about the pixel 2. If I was practical, it would be hard to justify a new phone. What new features do I need that won't come from a software update? I do wish I had 64 gigs. Recently had to factory reset and that got me back down to 26 gigs used.

Of course I'm going to get it. However, there are a bunch of caveats and prerequisites in order to justify the purchase. And naturally a few different scenarios. Gift the Pixel to a family member that has a crappy S5 or any other Samsung device, sell it on Swappa, use it as a backup device in case something goes wrong with the Pixel 2 and you need to wait for a replacement, stuff like that. Personally, I'm in for the gifting and then it's justified right off the bat even though I still have a year left to pay it off. But the family member is on my VZW account so nothing it really changed in that regard. (wow, that S5 is a piece of junk, Yes, that's for all you Sammy trolls)
Then there's the price. I only paid $240 for the Pixel in the wee hours of Black Friday. I had a chance to depixel8 the device but chose not to. I had no intention of ever unlocking the bootloader or rooting so I just took the updates. I'd do the same thing here if the price were the same. Google never had a black Friday deal and I could not justify paying 7 bills since my 5x was working perfectly and still does. (running Android O beta, locked bootloader on that too) Bottom line for me is never buy it on any other day than BF and get the best price possible, locked or not. I fully expect VZW to keep the bl locked and I don't care if I can get the phone for $300 or close to it. I won't spend a nickel over $400 tax included. Since the Pixel and the XL are working so well and a lot of people are on a 2 year installment plan of sorts, I believe they will have some discounts on it during the holiday season. Just keep your eyes peeled since the deals are strictly for black Friday hours only. Come Saturday the deals are off the table.
PS I should save this post to remind myself of rational thought when the device is released.
I'm considering upgrading to a larger screen but I just switched to t-mobile and sadly Google only offers the Pixels to Verizon for resale. So unless I can get one on device payments I'll probably stick with my Pixel.
I can understand buying the Pixel over the Nexus. The Nexus always had that element that caused it to get laggy over time and stutter, but the Pixel is a massive step from the previous nexus 5x I had. All my phone are in working condition and i actually offered to loan someone whose phone stopped working my Nexus 5X.
The Pixel though hasent given me any issues. I think at the very least I'll wait until next year to buy it. It seems like the first batch of phones tend to have issues. I remember the first Pixels has that crackling speaker issue, but since this one actually works well I'll have to think about it myself. If I do maybe not until 2018
They are going to have to really nail it to get me to upgrade right away. This is a great phone.
Not sure yet, nothing wrong with this one, might wait for the pixel 3, this is just a great phone

I'd also expect the Verizon Pixel 2 to have deals during Black Friday. There are typically also good offers on carrier phones at times during November and December. I could have saved a bit by waiting longer to buy. I think the best offer in 2016 only lasted a few days.
https://slickdeals.net/f/9417827-be...-e-gift-card?src=SiteSearchV2_SearchBarV2Algo
Many of the Verizon offers have generally trended towards bill credits recently, where you have to buy their service for two years to get the price reduction, yet the Verizon S8 had a Device Payment Plan offer last month where the financed price was reported as $300+ less than retail.
https://slickdeals.net/f/10382028-v...req-best-buy?src=SiteSearchV2_SearchBarV2Algo
No
Probably will wait until the 3, because my 1 is still in great shape
So got to add BT headphones to the mix too. Been wanting a pair anyway, this will probably force my hand. I have Grado now and they are amazing. I don't think they make BT yet so does anyone have some that are in the 100-200 range that are just killer?
I personally don't use bluetooth. Based on the renderings, I think I'll definitely wait at least for a bit. If it turns out to be just the Pixel with a few enhancements then it will be easier to pass. I was hoping for front facing speakers, but dosent seem to be happening. Also they are removing the headphone jack which I like. Something minor but should start being standard.....waterproofing, hopefully this new one is officially water resistant/proof.
It looks like they will have several versions or atleast 2 which is good. Everthing now seems to be 5.5"+, I cannot do these jumbo sized phones, I'm probably the only one, but I don't like excessively large phones. Hence why I got the small pixel.
Pixel 2 will be 5". As for BT I'd like to get rid of the cord if fidelity is as good. Waterproofing is not minor! Lol. That's almost a prerequisite at this point.

I'll have to probably update this post. If Google follows the Note 8 and prices the Pixel 2 at $900+, then that's a definite "no" for getting it. Beyond unacceptable. I'll keep the phones I have or switch to a GSM carrier and buy a One Plus.
When you throw in taxes and optional insurance, you are looking at a total over $1000
imma skip to the pixel 3. it's not worth it considering how good the pixel/pixel xl are to date

Ouch! Never owned anything but a Google phone. Im starting to rethink this.
So I never wanted to be like those -bleeping- iPhone users always buying the latest BS about the new phone they are coming our with, but with the Google store offering me $350 for my current pixel in near perfect condition, how could I say no to an XL2. LMFAO looks like they got me ?? let's hope it's just as good if not better, anyone else trading in?
I'm thinking the same thing, the trade in for my Pixel makes it worth it to pick up the pixel 2. Before the trade in was announced I was planning to skip the 2

Same here. I had no intention of preordering the XL2 but that trade in and 0% financing hooked me. I always wanted the XL but it was out of stock for the longest time.
EDIT: Canceled the order because of the curved screen on the XL 2 and am going for a regular XL instead.
0% financing is only if you're a new customer....Read the fine print. :/

I am
I decided to jump in and trade my Verizon model pixel (still bitter about the locked bootloader) for a pixel 2 XL. I wouldn't have made the jump either without that trade in credit.
I ended up pre-ordering a Google version Pixel 2, coming from a Verizon Pixel. I was paying monthly for my original pixel, so I owe about $300 left on it. Figure I'll take the $350 to pay that off and get a free Google home mini (already have a regular home in the living room).

No 0apr is for everyone I called them and that's what they told me
I pulled the trigger and used my early upgrade on Verizon, send in my Pixel and getting the just black XL2 128gb. I won't get the 300$ credit but it pays of my pixel and still get mini home. Now before I get chastised for taking the vwz version understand that it really our only option for cell carriers where we live and we use the beyond unlimited plan for our internet( again best option in our area). I may be screwed when it comes to unlocking and so on but with rootless substratum and Nova launcher I think I'll be just fine.
Verizon no longer subsidizes devices, which eliminates the only reason why I ever bought devices from them. Unlocked Pixel 2 XL, here I come! I didn't have anything to trade in so I paid full retail, but hopefully they'll give me a nice fat trade in deal when future pixels come out (and hopefully they'll be good enough phones that I still want to buy them).
Ditto on 2XL. The trade in was a yuge plus. I've been envying the close to bezel-less display on the new phones. Plus the new dx0 rating was a big incentive. I love the pics on my pixel so when I saw it rated even better, had to get this next iteration.
It is damn good to trade in for you guys. but for those who live abroad US, very difficult to get a pixel phone.

Depends. I got about 50% off on my Pixel through Verizon when they had a promo going on. And the promos happen pretty frequently. So you can get better deals through the carrier (provided you stay for 2 years, as the discount is done in monthly installments over 2 years).
Otherwise, I'll wait for Pixel 3, my current phone Pixel is still perfect, zero issues (and hopefully they bring the headphone jack back, but probably not, so this may well be my first and last Google phone).

While Verizon has primarily moved their offers to bill credits, there are still occasional Verizon deals with reduced phone prices from retailers like Best Buy. The better offers are typically discussed endlessly at Slickdeals. Based on last year's deals, I'd expect there to be offers on the Verizon Pixel 2 at times from Black Friday through the end of the year, especially for anyone that's okay with bill credits.
Take a breath! Wait for Black Friday deals from Verizon. They will have the device for more than half off. Day after, Saturday, you will get the same deal but need to trade something in. Friday .. well just let me say I paid $240 for my Pixel no trade in. But you need to wait until the Thursday before when they announce it. If they don't, and they might not this year, you're only out a month or so.
I mean that's if you want the o so expensive plan Verizon offers with a locked bootloader and bloat, I'd rather spend the extra money and get a phone worth buying than one filled with crapware

The Verizon bootloader will likely be locked again, and that's about it. On the first generation phone the few Verizon apps can be removed in the Play store, and non-Verizon customers can move to the appropriate firmware for their service. Most Verizon offers are bill payments that require users to stay on their service to receive the savings, but in 2017 there have still been some offers from retailers without bill payments, so that it isn't necessary to stay with Verizon. Most likely I'll just wait to see the Pixel 3, but if a deal on a Pixel 2 comes close to the best offer the first-generation phone had in 2016, I might consider going without root.

Who else ordered the phone and what are the delivery dates?
I ordered the 128GB, White, delivery showing as 02-05 November.
Ordered from Google Store
I have the note 9 512gb now, and I am passing on the Pixel 3 XL.
Delivery will be 1st November according to carphonewarehouse, and aside from the notch, the RAM and Storage aren't enough for the price, Pixels struggle with closing apps in the background, and to add to that, I actually think they battery capacities and the phone designs are just deal breakers for me. Added to the fact it has no headphone jack.
I would fill the phone in 6 months and that's unacceptable for £969. EDIT: with the added emphases on the motion shot and the no blinking thing, would probably only take 3 or 4 months to full 128gb.
Google will delete all your full resolution photos when the Pixel 2 years unlimited storage runs out as well so that's not a long term option.
As for trying the Pixel 3 normal, the price jump over the Pixel 2 is too much. IT's even worse value.
I am pretty sad google made such a hash of the Pixel 3 and 3 XL.

Wow
Pixels struggle to close apps in the background - not on mine
Delivery 1st November - that's uk launch
Headphone jack - usb c converter included
If you can fill 128 gig of storage then you should probably look at some other type of storage
I believe the high rez photos are for life, they wont delete, you just won't be able to add to them after that.
I just got quoted a VERY similar contract price for a new 3XL from EE for what I'm currently paying for my Pixel XL
looks like US will be getting them few weeks earlier than us
Vodafone currently only have prices for 64 storage option.
Been out of contract with them paying £12.50 a month sim only and deal wasn't great the offered me. Will be transferring to EE. Went for the 60GB Max option.
Breakdown cost came out at £30 up front for the device and £54.40 a month 24 month.
Despite my opinions on the gigantor notch I could not resist the temptation of stock android even though I am coming from a OnePlus 6, ordered the Pixel 3 XL 64gb Black from John Lewis.
What swung me was the fact you can hide the notch which makes it look like a Pixel 2 XL which ain't a bad thing and the Pixel 3 was just a bit too small for my liking.
EE - 64gb white 8gb data and free BT sports pre-ordered
currently on pixel OG XL 128GB and doubtful if I've EVER been over 30gig on the storage front
my average data has been about 5.5G/month so no need to have much more (wifi at work and at home)
Hey lads, i'll be gettin the xl when it's out too, waitin to see if get any freebies later, so far pre-order doesn't make sense, 3 weeks wait and we gettin nothin on top,

I've ordered a 64Gb 3 XL in black - expected 1st November from Three.
Unlimited data is £54/month (not for everyone I know). Haggle with them, I got the £99 upfront wiped off
im paying a small fortune for mine on ee but itll be worth it im runnin on 1gb of space free roughly most weeks on my gen 1 xl
got my hands on the xl 3 in the metro centre ee store last night (demo only) boy she is nice !

I just preordered 2 through AT&T and I am wondering the same thing. The only thing AT&T told me was they were waiving the activation, which I alreadyget through their signature program discount through my employer. So not much of a promo there for me.
I ordered direct from Sammy and received at $150 freebie accessory purchase and then another email with an additional $50 deduct for the pre-registration. Sammy also throws in 6 mos of Spotify and 4 months of YouTube premium.

Got this same promo when they opened up ordering.
I ordered from Samsung. Got 550 of my Note 9, 200 dollar credit to be used on the site, 6 months of spotify and 4 months of youtube premium. I find it interesting when I preordered I got 200 dollars, yet they are now giving a 150 dollar credit.
if you use Rakuten app or the plug in for chrome.
you can get 10% cashback but you cant use that extra 50$ credit.
but you still getting 100$ credit for note20 and 150$ ultra note20.
i ordered ultra note20, i'm supposed to get back 67$, that' more than that 50$ credit.
After you pre-ordered, did you get the extra $50 or a little while after? I just pre-ordered 2 phones and got 150 for ultra and 100 for 5g, att USA.

No, it never show there's a 50$ credit.
I read somewhere that you can get the 150 off accessories even if you preorder from a carrier. Not 100% if that's true or not.
Vodafone gives galaxy buds live.
ATT is running a hell of a deal, i have an S9+ and they offered me $1000 for an upgrade on an unlimited plan. I was already signed onto the Unlimited Elite, so upgrading to the Note 20 Ultra for $10 a month for 30 months on the promo pricing was worth it.
Dont know if its for everyone or just those with the old corporate FANs, i still have my old Sears Holdings fan attached to my account. Its like a collector's item these days.

When I pre-registered to pre-order, I got a $50 credit. Then when I pre-ordered I got an additional $150 credit, and I now have $200 credit. Both of those were described in emails from Samsung.
I just saw the AT&T deal. I immediately canceled my Samsung preorder and got it from AT&T. Thats a hell of a trade in deal for my note 9.
Just ordered the big dog 512 gb using the trade in program, getting $550 for my note 9 and also got $200 credit. Total came to less than $1k so I'm pretty happy
Here in the UK, a pre-order will get you a choice of either the new Xbox Game Pass Bundle (3-month membership, MOGA XP5 -X+ controller & wireless charger) with the Galaxy Note20 or Galaxy Note20 Ultra
or
A pair of Samsung Galaxy Buds+ in white (Galaxy Note 20) or the new Galaxy Buds Live (Galaxy Note 20 Ultra)
That's a pretty good offer!
.
Heads up
For those of you taking advantage of the 1,000 off from ATT, there are some things to think about..
You have to pay the device off or use the Next Up plan to be able to upgrade before the 30 month period. If you upgrade without NextUp, you will owe the payments in full, because the credits are only applied on a monthly basis.
If you use Next Up, you cannot use the Note 20 Ultra in another trade in deal. So if they do another 1,000 off next year for the new note, you wont be able to get that, you'll have to use the Next Up and pay the full payment plan of the new phone going forward (somewhere between 40 and 50 bucks per month).
The workaround to this is to buy a different phone second hand that hits the minimum trade in value for ATT. So you would trade in the Note 20 Ultra for the Next Up (this would satisfy the payment plan you are currently on without canceling all the credits, then you would trade in the second hand phone you purchased to get the 1,000 off or whatever the deal ends up being next time around.
Sorry if this seemed obvious to some, but this is kind of where they get you in the long run. If you plan on having the phone for 30 months, no big deal at all, but I tend to get a new one each year.

That makes sense, thanks. I tend to keep my phone for 2+ years (I have the Note 9 now) and I usually may them off way before. I would just use another trade in offer in 2 years and that may be with another carrier or Samsung.
Last time I used Samsung to get the Note 9 because they had the best trade in deal.
Looks like no free earbuds this time round but giving the $300 again. Really an incredible deal. I never would have gotten 6a without it. Probably having a tough time moving them / overstocked.
The email I got from the store says the offer's good until 9/24! Since I had to miss the first time for this deal, I've been talking myself into waiting to see the P7, but now I just can't pass it up.
