    After a month with the new pixel 3XL that I upgraded to from the pixel 2xl, I find that I am very pleased with my choice. I like pretty much everything about the phone but the camera feature really makes it exceptional. With the addition of the night sight enhancement, it is a very special phone to own.

    I was debating on buying the Pixel 3XL on Black Friday. Glad to hear that the upgrade was worth it.

    Coming from an OG Pixel, I too am impressed and pleased with the 3XL after 2.5 weeks. A buttery smooth phone with a camera that makes others think you carry around a DSLR... I personally couldn't ask for anything more.

    It depends upon your outlook, budget and what you are upgrading from. If you are upgrading from the Pixel 2 series it's certainly debatable and there is no right answer. It's really whatever you want the answer to be. I've said it before and I'll say it again....no regrets.

    My pixel 2 xl is still great, but the black Friday deal might just push me to upgrade. Has your battery life been unchanged from your pixel 2? Mine is still good for 5.5 hrs sot after a year, so as long as the 3 is as good I'll be happy.

    I don't notice any difference and I've been running adaptive battery off

    Yeah that black Friday deal of $400 off certainly is tempting but I am still really happy with my 2. And should be getting most of the software features from the 3 on my 2. Night sight is pretty amazing. Anxiously awaiting the call screening.

    Call screening should be out for the 2. It's a great feature.

    When did I get my Pixel 3 XL.
    Oct 10th.
    Like about everything about it haven't had any problems with it.
    Bought the pixel stand with it.
    The pixel stand is a rapid charger too.
    Like the pixel stand.

    I got 12 volt 180 watts in my 2018 Hyundai Sonata too.
    I can live without rapid charging till I can learn more about it.

    Just took my Pixel Stand to my Sonata and plugged it in on the C cord I have in the car.

    Wouldn't charge at all.

    Look at the Power plug that came with the phone. And look at the pixel plug for the Pixel stand.
    Totally different than the other plugs.

    There might be a trick to this.
    And one of us might hear about it or find out about it.

    Seems like the rapid charging on the Pixel started with PIE.
    Google knows about it and is gonna do a release on it.

    Think Redneck Mike Dee knows a lot about it.
    I would work on him to see what all he knows.
    And if you can get him to talk.
    Twist his arm if you have to.

    Rapid charging has been a think since the Pixel 1. It identifies when it's using PD. In the case of the Pixel 3 and wireless charging it displays that when using the Proprietary Google charger.
