I really like getting the regular software updates and always getting the latest operating system in a timely manner. It's been a few years since I've had a Samsung phone which would be my top choice for an Android phone, but when I last had one Samsung was awful sending out updates.

Over the last few months as I read the rumors about the upcoming Pixel 5 all I could think was " I really hope this isn't true!" I am so incredibly disappointed that Google has not made any significant improvements to the phone. In fact, I would say they have actually downgraded the phone in...

Just did a replacement on my wife's phone as the camera stopped working. They sent us a brand new replacement in the retail box with all the accessories. I sent all the accessories back with the broken phone.

Wow! Next year I'm definitely waiting for Black Friday to upgrade my phone.

I really wanted to run without a case as my Pixel 2XL always seemed so bulky with a case on it. Then my 3XL arrived and it was REALLY slippery. So I put a case on it. I was shocked to find though that it felt less bulky than my 2 XL.

All I know is if I buy a Pixel 4 next year, I'm waiting until Black Friday. The trade in values this year we're down and the price of the new phone was up. Plus, the only perk offered at launch was a $50 store credit. I love my Pixel 3 XL. However, I'd be quite a bit happier if it had come with...

Got an email today. I should be getting two though.

I had a Pixel then a Pixel 2 XL and now I have a Pixel 3 XL and I have to say this is a great phone IMO. Immediately, I just want to say that the whole upgrade process was SO much better this year than last. They clearly had much more inventory and the wait time for phones was much shorter...

I thought about selling my phones this year instead of trading them in. As you mentioned, Google wasn't offering as attractive trade in values this year vs. last year. However, my USB C port was starting to wear out and my wife's phone had some light scratching on the screen. I figured Goog...

Wow! Thanks for the tip. WiFi calling on AT&T was one thing that I was sorely missing on this phone. I've definitely had HD calling on AT&T for a while though. The pixel 2XL I trade it in had it.

FedEx was good to me today! Got both of the Pixel 3 XL's that I ordered. Both were 64 gb. One was white and the other was not pink. Also received both of my charging pads as well. This is a great phone so far. Very fast compared to my P2XL.

Wow! I ordered two phones the day of the announcement. One white XL 64 and one not pink XL 64 for my wife. The white one just shipped and is supposed to be delivered 5 or 6 days earlier than originally estimated. This roll out is going SO much smoother than last year's. My wife's not pink phone...

Even though the app updated for me days ago, I just got this functionality. It's pretty awesome. I was surprised to see that somehow even though I'm entering the messages on my web browser that they seem to still be sent through the phone. You can see it's doing something right after you hit...

Not sure what you mean by that. However, I'm assuming this is a switch that Google needs to make and not something I could do.

If you are only going to partner with one carrier, then certainly the largest one in the country is the smartest one to partner with. However, it also seems to me that a lot of people on this forum who went in looking for pixels were told by Verizon salespeople to buy iPhones instead. So, I'm...
