    Android 9 Pie... Do you like it?

    They moved the static current time display from the upper right corner to the upper left corner...I suppose I'll get used to it, but wish they had left it alone or given us the option to put it back. I've visually trained myself to look in the upper left corner for notifications. It'll take me...

    The 128GB black and silver Pixel XLs were in stock for like a minute today.

    I was willing to give them a pass because I got a great deal on the Pixel XL and could wait for them to honor it. Also, I was curious to find out what is so great about these phones and too stubborn to give up on my order. Worked out for me. I can see why others might see it differently...

    Chargers

    That's what I did a couple weeks ago when I upgraded from a Droid Turbo to the Pixel XL...bought a 4-pack of Anker USB-C adapters and just attached them to my various microUSB cords. Power charging and data connectivity have worked perfectly, no issues.

    How is this price gouging? Its called supply and demand!

    A thing or a service is worth whatever somebody is willing to pay for it. Doesn't mean that it's worth the same amount to anybody/somebody else. Gouging is in the eye of the buyer.

I've only had the XL for a week, but I like it...web activity is much faster, apps open quickly and run...

    Google Pixel XL - Preorder /order/shipping thread

    Quick follow-up...received my QB XL 128GB from FedEx an hour ago. Set-up and Verizon activation went smoothly. Slapped a Diztronic TPU case on it to add a little protection, and now I'm off to the races (so to speak). I have spent an embarrassing amount of time over the last 6 weeks reviewing...

    Google Pixel XL - Preorder /order/shipping thread

    Longtime lurker, new poster here...just wanted to share some encouragement for those who are still waiting on their QB XL 128GB. I ordered mine on Black Friday (25 November 2016) from the Verizon website and was given a 6 January 2017 ship date. On 7 January 2017, Verizon updated my order...
