Well finally got a chance to see the Pixels in person. Had to go to two BBs to find them. First one had the display but no phones, only the stand.
Second store had the tiniest display for them. Just a front section of a row. Two phones and that's it, no stand.
The new screen looked amazing, Galaxy quality for sure. They main thing I noticed is how great they feel in the hand. Very much more premium feel than the previous pixel. I had my Pixel 2XL on me and held it up to the Pixel 3 XL. Same size except the screen comes up the corners because of notch...
And let me just say...woah what a notch. It's big and ugly. It extends so far down... And it looks so funny how you can tell where the cameras are and the rest is just black useless space. I went over to look at the LG V40, and that's how you do a notch.
I'm still undecided which Pixel 3 to get. There regular one is so nice, but I'm wondering if I'll miss the big screen of the XL. I recommended if you guys and gals are getting the Pixel 3, go to your BB or Verizon store and see them in person.
Had to add another note, I'm kinda saddened by what I saw. It's Sunday, so BB was packed, especially the phone section. But no one paid any attention to the little Pixel section. I was there for maybe 15 minutes and no one came by. As I was holding the Pixel, I heard a couple come up behind me. The guy quickly pulled the girl to the side and said " no not those, those aren't the Galaxy's." Made me realize that Google has a long way to go in this market.
