Mmmmmm...Goodies..... :-)

Noticed the posters when I drove past my local Verizon store. Definitely looks like they're putting all they got behind this, which makes sense. It's good for everyone if this phone is successful, IMO. Now, Verizon just needs to do some good Holiday marketing, along with a great deal, so I can...

Definitely hope this happens! Loved the double tap, and also "Knock Code," from my G3. It was so hard to stop tapping the screen when I had to switch to an old phone after my G3's screen died.

In regards to the return time and restocking fee; this can all depend on your level within the Best Buy Rewards program. I'm not sure if they treat phones differently, but you get more days before returns and higher likelihood of waived restocking fees if you're a member of the rewards program...

I'm glad to hear from someone who didn't let their initial thoughts determine their analysis of the actual phone/reviews. Wish more people were willing to change on stuff like this. Hope it works out for you! I still can't bring myself to pay for it, although I'm in dire need of a new phone...

So what I'm gathering from all the reviews and comments I've read: A lot of people wanted to love this phone long before it was "released;" and they found reasons to continue to love it. A lot of people wanted to dislike this phone long before it was "released;" and they found reasons to...

Re: Pixel Reviews! Big props to OP for posting this! I was expecting to have a very tedious afternoon/evening searching for all the different reviews, so much appreciated! The generally positive reviews are going to make it harder for me to keep convincing myself that I don't want to pay...

Well...the fact that the next wave won't ship until late November really puts a damper on my hopes that at least the 32gb Pixel would have something of a Black Friday sale... :-p

Unfortunate that the credit can't apply to outright buying the phone. I assume there's a reason Verizon wants to coax buyers into the payment plans, but I'm not seeing it. Would be nice if I could trade in my old LG G3 and get the Pixel for $450; or even still pay $650 and just have the $8.33...

News flash: some people like it, some people don't. This is my shocked face... Kidding aside, different cameras are going to appeal to the eye of different people. Sure, there are metrics that define "photo quality," but everyone's still going to have different opinions (evidenced by reviews...

If people didn't get the hint (on price) from all the leaks prior to the "Pixel" name being leaked, they should have after. Pixel is obviously Google's high-end name, and will always be priced as such. As stated before, if they priced it low, the average consumer would assume low quality; even...

While I still don't quite expect huge numbers for units sold for the Pixels, I'm starting to wonder about that from all the buzz and marketing I've been seeing. I've had several of my Iphone and Samsung-loving friends express interest in the Pixels. One thing that really gets me thinking the...

Seems to me the goal is to show they can make a top-notch phone, get good expert and user reviews, and iterate from there. They can't expect the huge Samsung and Apple numbers in the first iteration, and as raqball pointed out, they don't. Also as Ry said, they're moving to the "AI driven"...

I would have loved to see a light bar (either front or back). I had the Pixel C for a little while, and although I had to return it for lack of compatibility with a game I play, I loved that feature. Looked cool, functional, unique...really was hoping it made its way to the phones.

I was definitely being a little "tongue in cheek" there, but I digress. Calling people cheap? No, and not my intention at all. Calling people unreasonable? Kinda...but not as an insult (if that's possible). You, personally, seem to have a very reasonable opinion on why you feel this phone is...
