    Pixel XL died today.

    Well, You are not the first that this happened to. I know at least one other member here had to return the Pixel XL for nearly the same reason. The part I don't get though is, why would they not be willing to give you a brand new phone, if they were willing to give you a full refund??

    Pixel XL Returned

    O.K. I have never ever heard any rattles at all, when taking photos, or not.

    Pixel XL system update?

    I have also been a long time Blackberry fan and owned several of their phones. My actual first choice of a phone, was the DTEK60 by Blackberry. It's actually a phone made by Alcatel with Blackberry's specs. I actually ordered the phone, but for some reason, Digital River, the company that...

    Pixel XL system update?

    Verizon has some minor connectivity issues with the Pixel. With other carriers, especially in Central and South America, there has been no LTE signal at all. I would like to hear from them, and see if they are now able to use their phones? Hopefully, this LTE issue will be resolved. The Pixel...

    Pixel - Signal dropping (Update: Google Knows)

    Re: Verizon Pixel XL - Dropping calls? Exactly, I also was not willing to chance buying the phone, with no official fix from Google. I know, that users have been talking about fixes, however, that's too risky for me down here. Lets just hope the issue can be fixed through software, and the...

    Unimpressed with Daydream compared to Gear VR

    You'll have to give them time. Samsung has been in the business for much longer than Google. You received a beta product.

    is the Google pixel worth it?

    Google Screwed the Pooch with the Pixel. They rushed it into production, so it seems. Too much money for a beta product. You could tolerate a bit of this with the Nexus because it was a deal, but iPhone money for these kind of issues: LTE, Bluetooth, screen issues and excessive camera flare. No way.

    Pixel Bluetooth issues

    Bluetooth, WiFi, and LTE connectivity are handled by Qualcomm through their Snapdragon 821 chip. It could be a firmware issue. Have you tried other phones did you say, with your specific vehicle?

    Pixel - Signal dropping (Update: Google Knows)

    Regardless, I don't think most of us are willing to gamble. We would rather see a permanent fix from Google is coming for sure, that will be rolled out to everyone, before we decide to buy it. I am not taking a chance, even with the above fix, especially since I am in South America, and I am...

    Pixel - Signal dropping (Update: Google Knows)

    It is not yet certain, why some phones are having problems, and others are not. Lets hope Google does not ignore the problem, and comes up with a solution.
