Best Buy, Verizon stores, anywhere?

Even though I won't be getting one now (too expensive) I just want to check it out haha.
 
You may head to Pixel XL forum and search for title "Played with Google Pixel XL today", I think he tried the demo at Best Buy.
 
I will assume 10/20 will be the day fir the demos... I went to VRZ store past weekend and no luck

Went to local Best Buy today and the guy at the Google booth had black XL that he let me pay with for a good 15 minutes.

Quick thoughts: 1.The black looks really nice, like really nice!
2. A feature I haven't seen in videos, double tap the power button opens camera app imcredibly qyickly even with a locked phone. Makes my Note5 camera look slow.
3. He had the 32gb version with 21gb available, but he had quite a few photos and store demo software on it, I'd expect 23gb available out of the box.
4. It had pre-production software and Assistant was not fully functional on it.
5. Swiping down on the fingerprint sensor to bring down notification bar worked perfectly and I'm already in love with this feature.
6. It is very light, and much more comfortable in hand than my note5
7. Sweet lord it is fast and smooth in comparison to my phone AND more importantly my wife's S7 edge (snapdragon 820)
8. Snapped a couple of pics, under the fluorescent lighting and compared then to same pics with Note5.......PIXEL LOOKS BETTER!.
9. Size wise, it is just a pinch smaller than Note5, screen looks definitely better.
10. He was also carrying a 5x, there is obviously not comparison,in terms if screen and performance

That's what I can think of off the top of 2 head, topping this in Best Buy parking lot. Lol
