Pixel 4 worth it?

The short answer is no. Pixel 4 models are fine devices, but unless there's something very specific from the Pixel 4 that you need to have, I think there are better options elsewhere. I would at least wait to see the S20 models...

I think the refresh rate and updated GA made it worth the upgrade from a 2XL. I wanted the 855 chipset and Samsung uses the inferior Exynos chip in the UK. That put me off the S10 even though I thought it was a seriously sexy phone. I may still get one when the refurb prices drop even more. But I would not have bought it as my only phone.

Well I decided to pick up a Pixel 4 XL on sale and holy crap is this thing nice. The speed difference is noticeable. I ended going with the XL when I found it was the same size as my 2 XL. I do miss the fingerprint scanner a little, only because it was nice to use to pull down the menu bar. Other than that, very impressed with this phone and happy with the purchase. Hope the 5 blows all these whiner's out of the water!

I think what's better is the user experience. It's unmatched by any other smartphone for me.

Glad you like it. I'm a big fan of the Galaxy Note line and my family is mostly iPhone, but I have found the Pixel 4 XL in my pocket more and more. It's just a great experience all around. I also miss the fingerprint scanner, but the face unlock is excellent and combined with LastPass, I have no issues getting into and unlocking any apps.

You can't worry about the whiners. They will always be there. People find things to complain about no matter what. Use what works for you and ignore the noise.

I'm hoping Google makes a few improvements to battery life and screen ratio, but honestly neither bother me on the 4 XL. I would like to have the wide angle camera though. We will see...

Google had a Presidents Day sale $200 off the Pixel 4. I had already bought my Pixel 4 XL, but because I was still in the return window I was given the deal. So I got a 128 GB Pixel 4 XL in white for $799! Love my phone even more now. What a deal!
