this is the first time I will keep a phone for two years

The price for the pixel xl + 128gb + the insurance + tax = $1022 yikes

I usually get a phone every 6 months or so not with this phone. For the price is going to last me two years.

Yeah that's a lot for a phone. I liked it better when phones were consistently lower, but this year it's been all about the $800 or more + addons.

Good chance it'll never get Android O, I'd need a guarantee that they're launching with seamless updates before considering it.

Does it run Google's take on Android? If no not interested. Phones bought direct from Google will get monthly security updates guaranteed and also future OS updates. And also, smoother simpler user experience.
