I just noticed that an update and feature drop is available. Has anyone updated it and if they did, how'd it go?

Great post. I think I'll wait for a few more days to get more feedback from users that have worked with the feature drop before I try it. An update with these many changes makes me very cautious. Thanks for the help.

Yep yep, I hear you. I can't wait for the new feature drop from Google once a Verizon approves it on Monday!

For what it's worth, there haven't been any system stability issues on my 3 XL.

Is this feature not coming to the 3 (didn't see the article mention it's omitted from any Pixel).

Here is a chart listing update features available on Pixel models.

To clarify, that's for Pixel 3/3 XL phones from Verizon. The ones straight from Google already got the update.

Hmm.... I bought the phone from Google and I don't have an update yet. I have Verizon as a carrier, but it's a Google purchased phone. Curious why the carrier matters...

Yeah, that's an interesting one. For example, I have the Pixel 5, but I bought it directly from Verizon Wireless. I'm waiting till Monday for the future drop!

I'm actually not sure if it has to do with the phone being on Verizon or being FROM​ Verizon, but presumably the delay has to do with some kind of necessary carrier-side tweaks.

Well ,yeah, that's what you and the article say. So I'm guessing that Verizon is doing some 5G network connectivity tweaking on their side.
