Extremely disappointed for no pixel 5 xl

Bit the bullet and trading in my 3xl...

So glad they did this! I hate large phones! A phone should be well...just that...a phone...not a freakin' phablet!

Bit it's better to have the choice

The 6.7" s20+ sold better than the 6.2" s20. Given the choice, people choose larger phones these days. They went with a smaller screen because they are trying to not a certain price point and that's it.
I read that they expected sales numbers to be down this year, so it was probably easier for them to just make one model at a reasonable price and save the premium stuff for next year.
