Want to buy a NEW PIXEL XL

[eric0668]

1 Could you tell me if the Verizon Pixel XL will work on T-Mobile.. I know most Vz phones will not but I was hoping since this is from Google it may

2. Can you buy them from Verizon or Best Buy for Full Retail? If not has anyone heard of an approximate return date to the Play Store?

3. Lastly has anyone else had a noise problem up near the lens? I have, and some say it is the lens and not a problem. Most people have not had that noise. Just curious

Thanks

Unless something has changed within the last couple of months, all verizon smartphones are unlocked. This means they absolutely should work on any network. I've got a verizon galaxy S7 EDGE thats running on project fi from Google. It won't switch like a Google phone, but it stays connected to the T-mobile network.

I purchased my Pixel XL from Best Buy. I simply removed the Verizon SIM that is preinstalled and inserted my T-Mobile SIM, it works like a charm. All Pixels are unlocked phones and can be used on any carrier.

You are able to purchase the Pixel from Best Buy at full retail, that's what I did. I can't speak to buying at Verizon though.

I haven't experienced a noise problem near the lens or any problem at all with the Pixel

The VZW will work on T-Mobile, and it will get updates from Google as well. I can't speak for the Best Buy purchase process, but you will need to have an account with VZW if you want to purchase from directly from them. I have read other posts on here that said they paid full price at Best Buy without having a VZW account.

VZW does have XLs in stock, and I would imagine if you are not willing to wait, you can purchase from them with their lowest data plan, and then cancel and keep the device, especially if you pay in full. Or, you could find one on Swappa as there are a bunch listed on there daily.

I haven't experienced the noise issue at the camera lens, but that is fairly normal with most smartphones as the lens moves until the camera is activated. I have experienced that on iPhones, Samsung Galaxy phones, as well as a bunch of others.
