disappointed. may be Pixel 3 for me, not the XL.
Google copying iPhone doesn't makes any sense
Love the pixel, but in terms of front design, isn’t copying the iPhone something that Google has done since the first pixel?

I don't understand the hatred of bezels. They help you have somewhere to hold the phone. I think they don't look too bad. Maybe I used iPhones for too long. I prefer a bezel to a notch ANY day.

Oh dear. Don't like the sound of LG making the displays again for the Pixel.Thought this was worth passing along.

Now, according to AC, Bloomberg is reporting that Verizon will once again be the exclusive carrier in the US. This is really pushing my buttons as Google has denied me subsidizing for the OG Pixel. Didn't even try last year. This is the type of thing that makes me wish I didn't hate iOS so much. If you want to get a foothold in the market in the states, you have to be available at carrier locations.
I didn't know Best But offered subsidizing. Thanks for the tip.You can buy it directly from Verizon or from Best Buy. Both have financing independent of Google. It still works on all carriers.

Subsidizing/financing, whatever. I just want a Pixel. I want to walk into TMobile and get a Pixel. That's all I want. The fact that Google is trying to make headway in the market and they're only on one carrier is ridiculous.There's financing available so that you can make monthly payments. Subsidizing, getting the phone at a lower cost isn't guaranteed though.
As best as I can remember, Google had financing for the Pixel directly from their store for unlocked purchases as well as for use with Project Fi.
If you finance through Verizon, you'll have to be a Verizon customer to use their Device Payment Plan.
If you finance through Best Buy, you'll have two financing options: (1) through a Best Buy credit card or (2) if you're a Verizon customer, through Verizon's Device Payment Plan.
If history is any indication, Best Buy will only carry the Verizon model which will probably be the same except for the locked bootloader - which means nothing to regular customers.

Remember that barrage of advertising for the Pixel 2. How much money was spent? They want this.I'd argue that they're not trying to make headway into the market though because they're only on one carrier. They're not ready yet.

Then why make a deal with (for the love of God) HTC? And if the rumors are true, why make a deal with Foxconn, who we all know can mass produce product.Chicken, egg?
Once they're on more than just one of the big four US carriers, that proves to me that they're serious.
They're not, and six months later it still took me three weeks to get a Pixel 2 XL.
They're not ready.

Is Foxconn ready? What are they gonna do, have people slap together a few Pixels over lunch or whenever they're not trying to crank out new iPhones? I would've thought they already had all the zombified workers they can handle.I'd argue that they're not trying to make headway into the market though because they're only on one carrier.

Rumoe has it that they're ready to start runs now, just waiting on final proofs.Is Foxconn ready?
