Google Pixel XL - Preorder /order/shipping thread

Well they aren't doing very well with supply at vzw either pretty much anyone who had a 1028 ship date on a 128gb xl got pushed back to December!
I preorderwd with a 10/20 date and mine got moved out to 11/18 (Verizon)

I am waiting now for the 17th to roll around so I can get my second delay notification, since when you order doesn't seem to matter on the order they ship out :(

That's not what we're seeing here where I live or maybe it just finally caught up to them. . Colleage from NJ ordered from local Verizon store on the week of the 10th and got his end of last week.

My advice to people: Order from Fi. If you don't want them as a carrier, cancel after the first month.
 
My point was that Verizon customers got their orders filled first (before google store customers) even if they ordered a few days or week after we ordered on Oct 4th. That's a cold hard fact indisputable!
 
The supply issue is kinda ridiculous. I have a ship date of end of Nov. The phone will already be over a month old.

Iam starting to think about saving the money and keeping my Nexus 6p for another year and see what Google has next year

I'm about to join you. Now giving serious thought to cancelling my order and waiting till next year.
 
Actually I'm giving serious thought to buying a 32 gig XL as I can get that today at one of my local stores and cancelling the 128 GB the other thought I had to was adding a line with the 32 see how it is and if my 1:28 doesn't ship on the projected date of 11/11 I can make a decision from there as I will only be 13 days in to the 14-day return period
 
No, I really don't think anyone who ordered device protection will be getting better phones that have been double checked. It just sounds like they need to take the time to register those orders with device protection accordingly because of the added insurance. Device wise, no difference.

I agree, I really doubt they will be any different. Just wishful thinking for having to wait so long.
I replied with a fairly lengthy reply to the rep and am trying to see if I can get upgraded to expedited shipping. I doubt they will but it's worth a shot.

I did that but ended up returning the phone. I was worried because I scratched the corner on the back. It wasn't very noticeable but I didn't want to keep worrying about. Plus my case has not come yet. Now I want the phone even more. Nothing like a taste to get you hungry.

Then it will be the same issue all over again.
 
Seeing all these people waiting on their shipment and I walked into my local Verizon store and they had 4 of the 32GB Pixel XL in Black in stock. Walked out with one of them. Was going to get a 128GB model but I do not use all that space. I have 20GB available and everything I need on my phone is on it. Saved me some money! Lol
 
The 32GB Pixel's are fairly easy to get. I am trying to decide on trying the 32GB or just waiting on my 128.
 
I probably will wait. Or Verizon has the Pixel in 128GB in stock according to their website. Might go that route instead of the XL. That is my real dilemma.

Someone also said that Verizon is doing a deal where you can purchase a phone outright and they will note on your account you are waiting for a Pixel pre order and you can return the phone when you get your pixel for a full refund. I want to know if this is accurate.
 
Well my fortune cookie said you will receive a surprising gift very soon. Maybe it's a sign for some of us

If only the stores had 128 pixel stock....
 
I don't really mind the wait because I still have my Note 7. If an update gets pushed out to my Note that nerfs the battery life and/or bricks the phone, then I'll flip. I followed the instructions and ordered a phone that I would have had by now if the original ship date held up so it's not my fault.
