Pulled the trigger

[Soreloser]

Ok...pulled the trigger on the gray one from B&H. Hopefully I won't regret it. Seems to be great phone from my research. Root also seems to be on the horizon so I may put a custom ROM at sometime.

This is replacing two phones, an LG G4 that has been flawless and a Note 4 that has a bad camera module.

The screen on the G4 is not as nice as the Note 4 so I really hate using it but the Note 4 won't take a decent picture as well as it has issues with blue tooth popping when I listen to music so I'm hoping the Axon takes care of all those issues.

I should add that the camera in the G4 is the best cell phone camera I've ever used. I hope the Axon comes close...at least on paper it should.

It not even a hard decision to make mate. To me it a no brainer. If this phone does support Cyanogen mod, the volume speaker on this phone will be even louder!

Yes I know, I'm so excited for it but I won't believe it until it actually here.

Ok, after the "big news" of the Pixel today, how many are happy they saved a bunch of money and went with the Axon 7? I am for sure...ecstatic would be more like it.

I have still had zero issues with this phone. No random reboots, no freezing, no lag that I can see. Overall a flawless phone for my purposes.

Good to hear. I just ordered mine from Newegg. As with any phone purchase I make, I'm always a little hesitant in pulling the trigger but based on what I've seen and heard, I think I'll be fine.

Worst case I can return it within 30 days and get a full refund. I want to like the Pixel XL but can't get over the pricing!

They need to drop that price about $200.

 

[Mikey88Chaos]

Yeah and when they do, I'll probably get it

Unless of course this Axon 7 blows it away lol

I gave thought to the Pixel XL, but went with the A7 as soon as they announced pricing. I'd been eyeing the gray version on B&H and pulled the trigger right away. I've had the phone for about a week and couldn't be happier. No regrets!

I might still get a Pixel XL, but I'm not giving up my Axon 7. I've had mine since close to launch day and really like it.

Just cancelled my pixel xl since I snagged an axon off jet for 375, almost 1/3rd the price for more bells and whistles without a 40 day delivery eta. As long as the signal issues aren't as bad as forums make them seem then I'll be stoked.

The pixel seems like a bunch of hyped software in a bloated chassis, most which will probably trickle over to the affordable competitor once the dev community picks up.

After looking online for a while though it looks like I could get the 6gb of ram Chinese elite model with force touch for an extra 40$... anyone recommend or have a horror story with those? Looks like it would work fine on T-Mobile...

Can this A7 be used on any carrier? Im on fi. I think I can, but it'll just stick with T-mobile.

I just ordered by Quartz Gray from NewEgg on eBay. Also nervous but excited about the phone from the reviews I have read and videos I have watched.

Went from a Note7 (didn't kaboom) to a Note4, to the Axom 7. Really like the features, not concerned about the lack of onscreen buttons (since I have mistakenly hit the buttons on many occasions). Really like the warranty.

The software has some to work to get it where it needs to be, but I think I can deal with it in the mean-time.

Have you tried installing a custom launcher ?

I've always used Nova Launcher and will use that on the Axom. Can't wait to get it (probably next Wednesday with standard shipping).
