UbreakIfix sounds like some random dude at a mall kiosk. Is that really Google's official partner for repairs?

Thank you Bla1ze & B. Diddy

To add a little more detail, I have confirmed I am getting the daily "new thread" emails for the V30 forum. But not for the Pixel 4 forum :( Maybe no-one uses email digests any more, but (for me) it's a hell of a lot better use of my time to let emails pile up until I get some downtime to skim...

It's almost as if Google wants to make sure you only buy their accessories :D First the USB C to 3.5mm adapter (people reporting non-Google brands make the audio very quiet). Now the Pixel Stand (I have an Anker wireless charger, and it "feels" slower to charge my wife's Pixel 4XL than it did...

This is probably self-inflicted, but I can't seem to figure out what broke, hoping someone can assist. I'm subscribed to a couple of fora (I can't find the list, so I'm not sure which ones). But I know for sure I am subscribed (for "Daily updates by email") to the "GOOGLE PIXEL 4 & PIXEL 4 XL"...

Out of curiosity, why are people reporting what carrier they are on? As this is an unlocked phone, don't updates come straight from Google with no interference from the carrier?

If I ever make up my mind I definitely plan on buying the US unlocked model either direct from Google or from Amazon (sold by Amazon, not some random Amazon seller).

OK, thanks. I wondered if that might be the case. But they are still listed on Google's site, which seems odd (although the pink one is still available, I wonder why :D

I'm still on the fence about buying a 3XL. I keep going to the Google store, and it takes a few clicks for me to discover that the Unlocked 3XL 128GB black is out of stock. I can't order it, I just have to try again next time I think about it. Click click click :( Meanwhile at Amazon I can...

Are you saying that Pie on the V35 is different from Pie on other phones, or that Pie is not much different from Oreo in general? If the latter, that's Google's fault. About the only significant difference I saw in Pie vs. Oreo (on the V35) was Google took out the ability to see & control...

Wow, I wish I had checked their site back then. I also wish there was a camelcamelcamel for the Google device store. We (wife & I) have been leapfrogging LG V-series phones since the V10 (her), V20 (me), V30 (her), V35 (me). It's time for a change.

The wireless charging was why I was interested in the 3XL over the 3aXL. And the lack of fingerprint (plus the price, OMG!) means the 4XL is out of the question for me.

Good info, thanks.

I was hoping the prices on the 3 series would drop when the 4 series was announced yesterday. It didn't. Can anyone who was paying attention to the 2 series when the 3 series came out last year give a prediction on whether (and when) to expect a price drop? BTW I'm aware the price is currently...

Mine (V35 "Amazon Preferred" or whatever it is called now) got the Pie update on 8/5(ish). Mike
