I'm ordering the phone despite the negative reviews although some positive ones have surfaced. Battery life isn't a factor for me and I'm a pixel fan. Reason why I haven't ordered yet is I don't think the phone is worth a thousand bucks with it's omissions and the horrid trade in value for a mint P3XL through Google is ridiculous.

That said, how many are holding off until black Friday to see what deals or discounts "may" be offered from either Google, BB or someplace else? The $100 play store credit is tempting but I would rather a price cut on the phone. Thoughts
 
Me. I'll be getting a white 4xl around black Friday for sure. $300 off would be great but I'd bite even at $200 off.

Yeah, I think that price point will make it a bit easier for me to pull the trigger. Do you think we will still be able to trade in on top of discount??

Trade-in probably won't be worth it. Heck of a deal a month back from Samsung when they were giving $600 in trade for Pixel 3's towards their Notes - if they were to bring that back for BF I'd probably go with the Note 10+ (I'm a bit torn between that and the 4 XL now), but I'm not expecting it.

I ended up selling my Pixel 2 XL on Swappa for $265 just a few months ago, in June, so I can't imagine the 3 XL drawing less than that secondhand (if in great condition) after this short of a time. Mint condition 64GB 3 XL's have been selling for around $400+ on Swappa lately.

Pixel 2 XL's in good/mint condition have been selling there for about $200

If they have $200 off the full price of the 4XL and still offer 200-250 for a P3XL as trade in, it's well worth it for me, that's a 400 saving......

I will get one also later find a good price I'm not in a rush , I'm a pixel fan also
 
It's the best Pixel experience and everything feels so much more polished compared to Pixel 3. Do it
I believe it and one of the first to fight the negativity about it , it's best looking pixel to date and looks like it only going get better with updates ..

Yeah, it definitely looks the best so far, I'm an inpatient person but I think I'll be ok holding out for another month, worth it IMO if the price drops

Wow. What that shows me is the relative value of the Pixle.
 
this is the first year I'm waiting until Black Friday. Tired of getting burned every year by buy one get ones and other good deals.

Although, I have been debating ordering the orange XL at the beginning of the month through Fi, that way I have almost 30 days to return. Worried about that whole "limited edition thing"
