Pixel Owners vs Pixel XL Owners

[GMC MaXx]

Which Pixel did you buy?
I got the Pixel. I'm loving getting back to "small" phone.

 

[Almeuit]

XL all the way! I love bigger phones .

For me, small hands = small..............

Phone.

Got tired of dropping my Turbo 2

 

[Kaenon11]

I purchased one of each.
I'll run with the XL for 3 days (today is day 1) and then the 5" model for a few days and see which one I prefer.

Just need to get Tech21 cases for both...

5" Pixel for me... Not into the ginormous phones..

I am coming from a Nexus 6, and thus figured that the XL would be an easy transition. I also carry a work iPhone 6s, and wanted the personal device to have the larger screen as a contrast.

Definitely happy with the XL, but it isn't enough of an improvement from my Nexus 6 to justify the purchase/price of the XL for me. I'd probably not order the first generation Pixel and wait for next year if I had it to do over again. Yes, I know I can return it, but I'm just going to stick with the Pixel XL at this point and put my two Nexus 6 devices on Swappa.

Coming from a Nexus 6P (because I have no self control), I got myself a Pixel XL. Coming from an iPhone 5s, my fiancée wants the smaller Pixel.

5" Pixel for me. Have had a 6P in the past, then a 5X, and this size is perfect for me. It's the Android phone I've waited for.

4.5 hours screen on time yesterday too which I haven't seen since week one with a Note 4 several years ago. I love it.

I got the Pixel. I like the smaller form factor for one handed use.

The 5" battery life is a concern for sure but the big screen size is what had me getting the XL.

Battery won't be a concern for me. I wouldn't rather have the smaller size. Also 2k display is unnecessary for me.

I had the Pixel all set to buy and then decided to hold the XL and see how it felt. I walked out with the XL. It's big but comfortable to use. It's not as slippery as the other phones I've used this year and I really like the screen and battery life.

 

[radgatt]

I got the Pixel XL mainly because of the larger battery and better screen resolution. Had the smaller Pixel had at least a 3000 mAh battery and QHD then I probably would have went with that one.

 

[JenTDOT]

I got the XL for the battery life.

 

[m3lover1]

Ordered the pixel xl. Used big screens for several years and much prefer it over 5"

 

[Amb312]

XL can't imagine using a small screen ever again after having Notes for several years.

 

[Dan L2]

First big screen phone. Was nervous about the size but don't think I could go back to a 5 screen. Do wish the phone was a little shorter.

 

[JackInTheDust]

Same here. I missed my small phone. Coming from the Nexus 6p, the Pixel feels just lovely. I can now wear Levi's and sit down at the same time!

Ain't this the truth -

I've had a few Notes so I got the XL. And I really like the size. However, the XL seems really wide in my hand. I really wish that the side bezel was reduced to zero like the Note 7. The upper and lower bezels don't really bother me. Also, on screen home button was surprisingly easy to get used to.
