    Are you going to Order the Pixel 5?

    The trade-in option didn't seem to work for me. It was grayed out. Maybe because the 5G Verizon version says coming soon. I was able to "join the waitlist" for the sage green. This happens every year were people insist the unlocked version and the Verizon version are the same. Verizon will...

    Are you going to Order the Pixel 5?

    I don't have an opinion yet. Some of these may be subjective. Hence the question. Here are the potential pros that I see: 5G, a bigger battery, and the newer processor? Screen size: 6" vs 6.3" on the Pixel 4XL but the 5 has 88.76 % vs 83.99% on the 4XL screen to body. Granted there are...

    *Obligatory 'I ordered my Pixel 4' thread!

    Thanks bhatech Canceling yesterday's order through Google store and buying unlocked on Amazon now. I like the Amazon credit and 5% back deal better.

    *Obligatory 'I ordered my Pixel 4' thread!

    My annual order Verizon vs unlocked debate. Every year I ponder this and am told that there is no difference from Google and that there is from Verizon. Verizon will tell you that the unlocked version will not operate as well on their network. My experience, having owned all three Pixels...

    Is Google Fi better than Verizon?

    Re: Google Fi I tried Fi two years in a row. Both when new pixels came out. I had to switch back to Verizon both times bc I live in a "marginal coverage area". Otherwise I would be all over it. Despite living in Los Angeles, I pay the price for living in the hills. Verizon works best and...

    Can't turn phone on?

    Same thing happen to me. Pixel 3XL. Was not responsive. I pressed the power and down buttons together until it rebooted. It has been fine ever since (about a week). I did call Google to log the event in case I needed to exchange in the future.

    Non Verizon Pixel 3 on Verizon

    Could there be anything, software or hardware affecting the performance of a non-Verizon phone on the Verizon network? What software "that would helpt during the transition" could they be referring to if any?

    Non Verizon Pixel 3 on Verizon

    Verizon also informed me that the "lock" on the phone was only until it's activated. Then the lock is removed. This is to prevent theft of non-activated phones.

    Non Verizon Pixel 3 on Verizon

    New Pixel 3 XL here. Since my first call to Level 2 Verizon support on 10/9, I've been experiencing considerable degradation of service on my commute through the Sepulveda Pass in Los Angeles. After the 10th call to Level 2 support (because sometimes it pays to be persistent), Verizon is now...
