Still haven't told my wife that I ordered the phone. I figure I'll break the news to her when the phone arrives either tomorrow or Wednesday. She'll be like, you're switching phones again? Didn't you just get that one? What's wrong with it?

Sounds familiar.

I came so close to ordering the 7 but ended keeping my s 22 Ultra. After comparing both of them the s22 seemed to be the better fit for me let's see what Google does for the 8.

That's a pretty good strategy. I'm the opposite: once I'm sure I'll buy the phone, I get my accessories beforehand. But once I do that, I gotta make sure I'm *fully* committed!

I'm the same as you... I do my research, try out the phones in store, then commit to buying the accessories and the phone I've never returned a phone

Me going into the Verizon store helped me make the decision to get the Pro. The 7 just didn't feel very premium and the curved edge on the Pro wasn't as bad as I had thought it would be. I'll probably be buying a case today on Amazon so it will be here when the phone arrives. I also can't see the value on spending more than $20 on a case. Sure, I'll usually have 3-4 cases that I'll swing between. I almost never drop my phone so I've never had the need to spend that much on a case. I've always gone with a slim tpu case.

Finally broke the news to my wife. She sent me this message. At least she has a sense of humor.

This looks like my phone collection -- sort of. I wish. LOOL.

I've only kept one phone that I used and it was the longest 2 years of my life with that phone. The Droid X2. I think it had 8gb of storage and 1gb of ram.

Even I had many phones, but I always sell or trade-in my old phones. There's always 2 phones remain with me. Right now P7pro and ZF3.

My Pixel 2XL panda 128GB won't stop powering off when I plug it in to charge, a dealbreaker since i use it for nav in my car and on the motorcycle. I tried cleaning the USB-C power port and doing a factory reset, still does it. I will miss it, i've had it for 5 years. My Motorolo Moto X before it was my first smartphone, so the Pixel 7 i'll be ordering in a few days (black friday sale, white 256GB model) will only be my 3RD smartphone, haha. I hope it lasts me 7 years this time around! Joining the Pixel 7 club by sheer necessity it looks like!

Yep I also usually keep my phones long enough that they have no resale or trade in value to speak of... and I always get them on sale so I don't actually spend that much on them It's even better now that Google and Samsung support their phones for 5 years of security updates

Oh, wow! Two years is a super long time! I think the longest I've had a phone is 18 months, maybe 20.

If you are ordering from Google and you want $100 in Google Store credit, PM me before you order and I can give you a referral code. Thanks for any consideration.

Set up my P7P yesterday. Pretty simple. I did have two security updates and they took forever to download in the background. Today will be my first day testing it out. I am planning on keeping it but just in case something on it isn't working right, I'm not resetting my S22+ just yet.

Also, Google already refunded me the $150 for the Black Friday deal on my Synchrony account. After I send my S22 plus in, the total for the P7P will be $250. I'll still be paying Samsung credit for the S22. My alternative was to try and sell it and pay off Samsung. I have about 28 payments left to Samsung and will have 24 months of payments to Google. I haven't totally figured out exactly how much it will end up costing me. I certainly wouldn't have done it without the discount and trade in value.

I missed my 15 days, so they won't refund the $150 difference.

I was hot on getting the new 7 series device but after some research I decided to stick with my S 22 Ultra maybe the 8 will be my next pixel.

I wasn't planning to but thanks to my carrier. I own the 7P. Offer was just too good to pass up.

It could've been better with a $150 Wal-Mart gift card but they couldn't stack codes so I had to order it through my carrier.

This is awesome! Happy Phone Weekend! How are you liking your new Pixel 7 Pro so far? What storage size and colour did you get?

[bembol]

Black. 128GB.

So far so good. Reminded me how Pixel OS is a bit more polished than Samsung's One UI.

Hopefully, Google got everything sorted out.

Yes I did. Thanks.

I love the P6, reminded me of the Huawei 6P, which was of my all-time favorites.

I'm quite happy with my Pixel 6 Pro. The Pixel 7 would have to offer a lot more for me to spend what it would cost to change. If past Pixel experience is any indication, I will be happily using my Pixel 6 Pro for another couple of years.

On Black Friday, the Google Store offered enough to cause me to order two Pixel 7 Pro's for Kate and me. The deciding factor was the camera's increased telephoto and the close-up abilities. We use the camera a lot.

For a hundred bucks and my Pixel 5, I could't say no to a new Pixel 7. I had not planned on trading my trusty P5 this early. For that price, it was real hard to say no. Really looking forward to the new phone!

I was definitely not planning to, but my Pixel 5 has intermittent data connection issues on T-Mobile, and for $200 to upgrade to a Pixel 7, I figure it can't be any worse. I really want the camera on the 7 Pro,but the 7 is already too big. Really pisses me off that manufacturers keep doing that - give me a smaller phone with a telephoto lens!
