Any Canadians have a Pixel or Pixel XL?

[JenTDOT]

I bought mine at a Telus in Toronto and got the last XL. The rep says they've been selling really well.
Since the phone is at the big three, I'm sure it's getting good exposure.t here seems to be good advertising for it at all three stores.
Side note: I can't find more than two cases available at any phone stores. The one I have is protective, but slippery. Was hoping Speck would make a rubbery grip case.

In the GTA bought mine from Google direct. Using the Spigen rugged case. ItS not to bad. Fits nice just wish it was a litter firmer.

I bought through work from Bell. Got the XL, bought a $5 TPU case from Amazon.ca.

I thought I'd be the only person with a pixel, then yesterday in a team meeting I saw another guy with the regular Pixel. I gave him the head-bob to acknowledge.

I get terrible reception in the office I'm in, although that being said it's better than my previous phone (Xperia Z3). I'm on Bell and in my neighbourhood reception isn't very good (north Richmond Hill). When I used to be on Rogers I had much better reception in my neighbourhood (when I had Nexus 5)

I have the pixel 32gb, ordered through Rogers. Love it so far, no reception issues.

Thanks for the response

I'm with fido and reception is great. I had a galaxy s4 prior and LTE speeds were hit and miss. Thought the issue was fido. Turns out the phone sucked. I haven't had any issues with low LTE speeds and WiFi connection is really good as well.

The Pixel head nod...is that anything like the Jeep wave?

Happy to hear that been having reception issues with the 6p for some reason. So it'd good to hear the reception is good

The reception is insane on my Pixel XL. Like freaky good. Almost too good that I feel like I am being cooked with radiation or something haha. I have unlocked model from Google, in Canada, on Telus and have LTE + EVERYWHERE! Sad to say I am returning the phone though.

We all get cooked with radiation - but if reception is good, you actually get far less radiation to your head as in areas of bad reception, your phone will transmit at full power. Good reception also improves battery life as, again, the phone won't transmit at full power.

Very good reception here (markedly better than my note7)...Bell Mobility.
