Buyers Remorse. Anyone starting to get it?

i have Bose headphones but don't understand why you can't continue to use them. Are you saying they won't sound the same with the dongle?
 
I don't understand why people come here to say they will cancel. Just cancel the phone. It's like people come here for reassurance or to have people talk you out of purchasing the phone. Do you, not mountain dew.
Yep.. that's why this thread was started.. check out other topics if your not interested.
 
Because I use my phone to watch movies and tv shows. I would like to continue with noise canceling top of the line

And what is preventing you from doing so with the Pixel 2? Whatever you are using now will work with the Pixel 2 ...
 
People suck. Period.

They will whine and complain about the most meaningless features. Bezels, oh my Gosh bezels. All because some other manufacturer gave us edge to edge screen. All of a sudden we can't have a little bezel. We get that edge to edge curved screen we complain we can't find a temper glass protector that fits properly. Apple is still King and it has the same damn bezels as Pixel. Even $1000 can't get you edge to edge and you have to settle with a retarded looking notch. However, oh my gosh bezels. BEZELS!!!!!!

Don't even get me started with 3.5mm jack.

You want less bezels? Want to give up the best camera? How about giving up free storage? How about giving up the most optimized Android software and timely updates? All these great features, but people don't want to support the Pixel program because of BEZELS!!! No wonder there are so much garbage out there. Consumers should be supporting Pixel program, so other manufacturers wake up. Yeah don't buy the Pixel get the sexy bezel, next thing you know you are stuck with another Samsung Galaxy with delayed updates and stutter software, but hey you get sexy bezels inside that Otterbox.
 
@openwheelracing There are 2 or 3 other threads about the silly bezels. Any reason you are posting your rant here instead of in those thread that are discussing bezels?
 
Lol.. i like flat slabs not the edge display thing.. care less about headphone jack.. now the new aspect ratio im unsure about.. love my Shamu.. go big or go home...haha

:D:D:D

Seriously, though, anyone who puts their phone inside an Otterbrick shouldn't be complaining about bezels.

You are assuming that other smartphones only have the near "bezeless" screen as a feature over the Pixel. To reduce a potential consumer's argument down to bezels would be inaccurate. I am one of those who has a Samsung Galaxy smartphone and coincidentally have it safely stored in an Otterbox Defender. And I can assure you that the bezels did not influence my decision to bray the Note 8 over the Pixel 2.
 
Imagine if Essential Phone two has oled screens next year it could have front facing speakers and be edge to edge full screen. No chin like this year.
 
Switching from a note 5 on att. I've wanted a pixle xl since I recommended it to a friend last year. Ordered from Google and was pleasantly surprised with the free home mini email.
 
Pre-ordered and cancelled it the next day after getting my hands-on with the V30. Not to say I won't end up picking the Pixel 2 XL, but I thought that highly of the V30. :)
 
No Remorse, NaDa,

We all have our ways of seeing things. This is just mine.

Mercy. Seems some folks are impulsive and order without fully evaluating. Or the price tag starts to eat at them later.
This is the new device release world of early adopters. Thats me since the Galaxy Nexus release. I know going in new releases can be risky and in some cases be it rare, are better than a final release.
I did sit still on the 5x until now because it served me so well between in and the Pixel 2 XL release. Its going to be a great upgrade. More power and display with only being less than 1/4" wider and less than 3/8" taller.

No headphone jack? I can understand if you are a power user and need to charge while listening or want to negate or offset the usage but that's really splitting hairs. I think I seen a splitter someplace.
I enjoy my BT head set without the tangling cord sticking to or hanging up and tugging on my ears.
If I had no BT set I'll just leave the danged dongle dangling on the headphone cord and not whine about it.
If we want to have a device weigh less and minimize bezels then kill the jack.

I root and ROM so any other device that kills warranty leaves only one sensible choice for me.

No expandable memory? Not an issue with me, I hardly use 32GB and with free picture cloud, Basic Drop Box, I don't need the hardware installed in the device.

Three years of OS updates? The 5x I am trading in that will cover my two year coverage has the Oreo update notification waiting for me to execute it at will.

Love the no interest finance and will most likey toss more then the minimum amount every month.

I disagree entirely. And here's why:

What those complaints are is consumers who want a product that they're buying (or want to buy) be better. They're asking for more features, for more innovation, for better value.

And while yeah, complaining may be annoying at times, ultimately those are things we all want, and those are all things that behoove us to demand.

I feel like so many people get caught up in this fanboy stuff, they end up swearing such allegiance to a brand that they become almost resentful of people who dare mention any of its faults. These phones are not our family. They're not people.

They're products that constantly can and should be made better. And with every missed sale Google has on the Pixel due to it's lack of a headphone jack or it's bezels, are another reason why the NEXT Pixel may very well be an even better phone with features that more consumers want.

If the product that you're buying needs to be better than you're buying the wrong product. I don't buy anything that's not acceptable and am well aware of what I'm buying before I purchase.
 
Simply go to Best buy and try to make a Pixel stutter, you will quickly realize how much better Google optimized Pixel software. No other Android phone can compete at this moment in time unless they start dropping their useless skins and start optimizing. I actually prefer it over my Wife's iPhone 7+ which is starting to lag a bit.
