No it is to both devices. It doesn't specifically say the XL it says "pixel owners"

Next Google Pixel update adds raise-to-wake, double-tap-to-wake | Android Central

Thanks - Raise and Tap to wake interest me a lot - got a Pixel Black 32 GB from Verizon today - doesn't have these features.....Something to look forward to.

I heard about the update today and just financed the 32 GB in silver from the Google store. Can't wait to get it and hope to have these features soon!

I'm on AT&T though, so no HD voice for me

Can anyone that has gotten this update today confirm the changes? Has the Bluetooth issue been resolved? Has the 4G connectivity been resolved ? How does everything else work? Someone out there must have this ?

My bluetooth streaming issue has NOT been resolved. At least with Google Play Music. I get random "skips" or "stutters" during music playback. It's intermittent, very annoying. Still happening.

Is this with a car Bluetooth? I use my headset at work with no skipping and also in my gf's car. The car is something I bought to add BT since it isn't natively built into hers.

or wifi calling like my other devices. It has been surprising handy...

I never had good luck with wifi calling on my s7. Everytime it kicked in the person on the other line said I was cutting in and out constantly. I even heard it on my end. The WiFi signal has to be super good for it to work well

Hm that must be with AT&T. I get a weaker signal down my driveway but can still talk with people via T-Mobile WiFi calling. I haven't tested the AT&T one before but I would be curious to see how much it uses. T-Mobile uses around 10-30 KB/sec for a call on WiFi.

I've been having connectivity issues with my pixel xl but only in one spot of town (that I Didn't have with my note 7). Not sure a software update can fix what seems to be just a weaker antenna. Other parts of town no difference

Tap to wake would be huge I had lg phones for that feature alone. Nova prime let's you tap off but tapping on would be awesome

@Tf407, maybe snag a copy of Network Cell Info to find the tower ID, and call Customer Service for your provider and open a trouble ticket? Here's a link to the free version of the app.

If anyone is interested, I sideloaded using ADB to my Pixel XL after downloading it from another site. Seems to work fine, though the raise to wake doesn't always work, the double tap does.

I have a Pixel XL purchased from Google's Canadian site and operated in Canada, but no update here. Seems odd that the carrier versions would receive it before devices sold by Google directly, but that seems to be what is happening in my case.

It goes out in batches usually.

Not here in US, yet. Maybe couple more days.

 

[DJM626]

It's been speculated that the US won't see this until the first or possibly second week in December

 

[matty032]

Has this helped anyone's LTE calls dropping?

 

[DJM626]

Based on the link you've posted it has but I've been reading for a lot it has for some it hasn't completely went away. If thats the case let them tweak it for a few more weeks before we get it

 

[DJM626]

I keep thinking someone who has it is going to chime in over hear but haven't seen much on it so far
