As of earlier today they only had the 32-gigabyte version available for sale. The reason I'm interested in Best Buy is because they have a hundred dollar gift card promotion along with a free Chromecast with the purchase of a Pixel. I'll have to go check the 128 gigabyte version on their website.
I just called my local Best Buy yesterday and they did not have the 128GB in either one for preorder.
He might want to get it from Best Buy cause they're offering $100 gift card and and a free Chromecast with the Pixel.

You are all missing the point that it has to be with verizon.. For the $100, so basically "F" Tmobile Sprint and AT&T users??? Smh I thought this forum was about family..smh
I'm so confused here. Why would someone be upset about where someone else bought a phone?
@OP, I contacted Best Buy and was told that they will only carry the 32 GB version of each device. I don't think that'll change but who knows.

Agreed!
And thanks for the heads-up about BB carrying only the 32GB version.
For me, I am a VZW customer on a discounted 2-yr contract plan. Not only is the monthly service fee lower than the newer VZW plans, but I get subsidized device pricing as well. This is why I'll stick with VZW, and why BB's nice promos make sense. But the news about BB only selling 32 GB is a bit disappointing.
Verizon will have 128 GB on both sizes and they do have some promos like $200-$300 trade in credit, etc but if you're doing subsidized not sure that applies. If you do go 32GB, it comes with approx 29 GB available to you.
EDIT: Reddit user looking at the wrong number. 23 GB available is right.

This is only for Verizon customers right? I am thinking about getting it, but of course, Google Store is sold out of XL and I am on AT&T.

Ummm, what does Best Buy's decision have to do with this forum being about family?
That ur only looking out for ppl in verizon, and no where in the post do u state that its for verizon so ppl that aren't that savvy might think u don't have to have verizon, instead of looking everyone out for the pixel this only serves ppl with verizon and everyone else is X'd out for the $100
smhYes, all Best Buy Pixel pre orders are for Verizon only and require the device to be activated on Verizon.
You do realize that Verizon cut a deal with Google to sell the phone mostly exclusively, which is why Best Buy can only sell this phone to Verizon customers, yes?
That's why Best Buy can offer that. Too bad they don't have the 128 GB, though. I would've gone with them over pre-ordering through Verizon, but I'm sure that was intentional.

I can't find it now, but there was an article on AC that said the 32 gb model will have 23 gb available for use.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/5789l8/telstra_australia_has_sent_out_the_pixel/
Storage: 32GB model. 29.7GB available according to settings>storage
I believe you but that conflicts with what I read here. Now I have to go find the article. Lol.
