Pixel 2 XL to S9 Plus?

[mvelasco2]

I'm on the fence about trading in my Pixel 2 XL and getting the S9 Plus.

Can someone please help me with these questions?

1. How's indoor cell signal compared to Pixel 2 XL or in general? I find Pixel has weak signal compared to S8 and Note 8.

2. Is bluetooth reliable? Does it work fine with Airpods? Didn't work well with S8 but were fine with Note 8.

3. Compatible with Samsung Gear Fit watch? Right now not getting gmail vibrations on Pixel 2 XL

Thanks.

1. It's the same for me

2 it's better definitely than on the 2 xl

3. All Sammy phones should be compatible, don't see why they wouldn't.

So I had the Verizon Pixel 2Xl 128gb Panda version. I sold it after the S9 was announced before preorder so I could get a decent price before the rush.

I like the cell reception. I purchased the unlocked version and I use it on Verizon's network.

Bluetooth has been better for me. It automatically connects to my Pioneer Nex4100. I have not tried Android Auto yet.

I use the Gear S3 and it was rendered useless with stock Android. Such a better experience.

I had the S8+ plus before the Pixel. I know that I'm giving up on timely updates, but I'll have to deal with that.
