    Google Pixel - How is your battery life?

    Something is not right for sure, I am getting 3 hours + SoT off the charger from 6am to 11pm and that includes playing CPU heavy games for 1-2 hours a day. I did a test on the weekend and did not play the game and I was able to get over 5 hours SoT

    How is this for a low light picture?

    This phone is just silly, my wife has officially stopped using her G5 for pictures after this weekend/Halloween haha. Set up a shared google photos location for her :)

    Pixel XL signal strength

    I can say so far the reception has been better than my HTC M9, my house is in a newer area that has spotty LTE at best. Most often while on the phone with the M9 I would be cutting in and out, dropped calls, etc. So far with the Pixel I have not had any dropped calls or cut outs, granted we are...

    Looking forward, but with some hesitation

    This is part of the beauty of Android, personally preference and options differ among different people. Unlike Apple we have a choice which is a good thing. You may feel as though Samsung phones have a lot over the Pixel however I completely disagree. For me having owned 3 Samsung phones in...

    Google Pixel - How is your battery life?

    I have been seeing 3-4 hours SoT over the first 3 days, that is with Bluetooth on all the time, a mix of wifi/LTE, stupid outlook app pushing work emails immediately all day and night (buying nine soon) and playing a fairly CPU heavy game around 1hr a day. I think without the game I would...

    Everyone happy with Pixel so far?

    2 days with my Pixel so far and I absolutely love it, coming from a HTC M9 so far zero negatives I can say. Battery life has been good, the camera is brilliant and the overall form factor is perfect for me.

    Using Outlook as Mail Client On New Pixel XL Or Try Stock/Gmail App

    Perfect thanks guys, I think I will pull the trigger on Nine. Sounds like it's worth the price and something I will be able to use for the foreseeable future.

    Any Canadians have a Pixel or Pixel XL?

    Using Outlook as Mail Client On New Pixel XL Or Try Stock/Gmail App

    Sorry to bring this thread back up, is Nine really worth the $10? Using Gmail for my exchange email is simply not an option as it does not function how I need it to in a business setting. Also tried Outlook and while the app itself is pretty good the fact that you cannot change sync settings...

    Sound quality and Volume

    XL and Pixel have the same speaker, I assume you are asking about this? I am coming from the HTC M9 which was generally regarded as having very good front facing speakers and to be honest this difference is minor. Sure I would have like front facing speakers however it is a non issue to me...

    What purpose does the glass on the back serve?

    No one knows the full reasoning for the glass, and there may not be one. Speculation has been 1. Better mobile / wifi signal - not sure if this is true or not 2. NFC - I find this hard to believe, many people mention due to the phone metal which does not make sense since HTC M9/M10 etc are...

    New Pixel Colors in the Future?

    I do not think they will go overboard but yes I see them offering at least a gold option down the road.

    Everyone happy with Pixel so far?

    Google "ran out of time" to make the pixel water proof

    I think both answers are correct, I am also sure that HTC is "working on it" for their next flagship and in theory subsequent Pixel models.

    we need a Pixel phone that's the size of the iPhone SE

    For sure 5.2 and 5.7 for the next generation remaining virtually the same size.
