Still loving my Pixel 2

[jimbo1mcm]

Just the perfect size for me; it's light and I put a very thin case on it with a wireless charging adapter. Screen is beautiful, the camera is great and so is the sound. I haven't pressed the home button for the Google Assistant in months, I use the squeeze function. I'm not sure how the Pixel 3 can top this, unless it has OEM wireless charging. By the way, I also have an Iphone X and I reach for the Pixel most of the time. I use the Iphone X to run my Apple watch.

Which wireless charging case did you get?

I, too, only keep an iPhone for my Apple Watch. I concur with your feelings about your Pixel 2.

RE: The charging case: I didn't get a charging case. I bought, on ebay, a small, thin coil that plugs into the USBc port. I then put the thin case over it and just put it on my wireless charging stand at night and it works perfectly.

Thanks and which charging stand do you use?

I also have a iPhone(7) and find I just can't stand using it anymore. Used to switch to it on occasion but after the P2 the iPhone just seems so locked down and restricted. It serves as an emergency backup device should something happen to my pixel 2. IMO that is about all it's good for.

Still enjoying mine as well. I still peak over at the iPhone X from time to time (I could see myself using it)... at the same time I am interested in the Pixel 3 along with the Pixel Watch.

Think it was this one. It has just the coils. You need a USB to Micro wire and charger.

The Pixel 2 XL is still my daily driver. The picture taken with it still amazes me.

I haven't even been looking at any phones to switch to, since getting my Pixel 2 XL. Its great. Still using it along side my OG Pixel

I do follow news of the Pixel 3 , but still to early to say I will for sure even purchase one this fall.

However if I was to upgrade the Pixel 3 would be at the top of the list to consider.

That's awesome! I too love the squeeze-to-launch Google Assistant. It will certainly be hard to top it with the Pixel 3. But I can't wait to see it!

Hey Jimbo, I have gone back and forth between the pixel 2 XL, back to my iPhone X, then to the regular pixel 2, back to the iPhone X, back to the 2 XL and so on!

I have another pixel 2 coming and I am forcing myself to sell my overpriced iPhone. Apple has been doing really shady stuff to its customers and I’m not one to support that. Going to jump back onto the android bandwagon, #teampixel baby! I’m excited to see what the pixel 3 and the pixel watch have in store for us. I think it is going to be game changing

They need to allow more options for the squeeze. If I had the Google version I'd install magisk and use edge sense plus

I agree that it would be cool if Google added a list of other uses for the squeeze-to-launch feature.

I like the bare-bones style though. One choice. It's a Pixel phone, minimalism is what it's about.

If I had the Google version I'd install Magisk and Battery Charge Limit [ROOT] https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slash.batterychargelimit and never have to worry about leaving my phone on the charger overnight.

I'm with you. I'm always on the hunt for a better phone that meets my particular needs. I want a responsive phone with a good display, light and thin and have wireless charging. With my case mod, the Pixel 2 does everything I want. I can't find a better phone out there now that works on Verizon. Very interested in what the Pixel 3 will be like.

I can't believe how much I've missed stock Android. I knew I did, but once I picked up the Pixel 2 and relived the stock experience, the bare-bones style got me hooked.
