What phone are you switching from to the Pixel 2?

I'm coming from a very much loved Nexus 6.
My wife and I are going to go to Project Fi.
She inherits the Nexus 6 (she doesn't care much about phones).
And I get a new Pixel 2 XL 128GB in "Just Black".
 
Switching from a Note 4. It pretty much gets about an hour of screen time at this point, and new battery, reset--- all the things doesn't fix it. Do not really love any of the current flagship phones, but think the Pixel 2 XL is overall best choice because of the software, and because I hate the glass backs. V30 was very close though. Did not like the Note 8, seemed slow and the phone just feels awkward being so tall and thin.
 
S7edge. Would save about $450/year on google fi vs my current plan with tmobile.

Wow! That's a huge annual savings.

FWIW, I switched my wife and I from Sprint -> Cricket -> Fi; been on Fi for about 14 months now and no problems at all. It is especially convenient that it works seamlessly when traveling internationally as I do so several times a year for both business and pleasure.
 
Traded essential phone for a pixel XL and another phone - so I could trade the Pixel XL in for the Pixel 2 and get that $400 discount.

Essential phone kind of sucked and their customer service was awful.
 
I went ahead and counted all of them up so everyone could see the numbers.
Alphabetical by phone, Counts Smallest to Largest and a Bar Chart. Looks like a majority of pre-orders are coming from Google Pixel XL and the Nexus 6. It's amazing to see some of these phones that are pretty old are still being used (and everyone says android phones can't last that long!)

Moto X Pure. I love(d) Motorola, and I like this phone, but I have no faith that they'll ever be honest with what and when they'll update. Lenovorola gets worse every day. Pixel 2 XL, here we come.

Dude! You need to find a hobby! :)
 
I'm coming from a Nexus 5x, I'm on my third one and I kind of don't trust it to take with me on a long vacation to Australia. I was going to buy an OG Used pixel, but it seems everyone else had the same idea and kep sntaching up the lower priced OG pixels on Swappa. At that point to pay over $400 for a base 32gb Pixel (and $500 or more for a 128gb OG Pixel) looked a bit crazy. I'm already at the hilt with music (streaming would destroy my mobile plan) on my 32gb Nexus 5x. I might as well just get the pixel 2. Hopefully It will ship soon!
 
I recently switched from a Moto X2 (bamboo) to a Moto Z Play. The Play is amazing with the battery life but it's just to big for me. I bought the Pixel 2.
 
HTC U11....The 11 was not as good as my HTC 10 (which I am using now). ...The squeeze function was nice, although I always had the fragility of the phone in the back of my mind which resulted in a mediocre user experience. looking forward to working with a Pixel 2 XL.
 
Hi everybody! I'm new to the Android Family. Just got tired and fed up with iOS, well Apple in general. Been an Applehead for some time, just time for a change!
And boy what an awesome change it is! :)

Anyway, I've switched from iPhone 5s to the Pixel 2
Wow! such an amazing phone! Love it.
 
I tried Android from time to time over the years. Most recent switch was from iPhone 7 to Pixel to Pixel 2. Pixel 2 is amazing!

Welcome to the wonderful world of the Pixel 2.
 
I've had a hell of a journey... Up until about May I was gladly using my 6P. But my wife became completely fed up with her G6 so I swapped... I trudged along with that for a few months until two things happened; LG pushed an update that rendered it useless and the V30 dropped. I used a JUMP upgrade to dump the G6, returned the V30 two weeks in and bought a second hand first gen XL.

The 1XL will go to my wife now, she's still using the 6P with nary a complaint.
 
Moving from Moto X 2014 to my Pixel 2 XL. The Moto X was losing battery life and the lack of updates was getting to me. So far been liking my time on Pixel.
 
iPhone 6S, because I simply don't like iOS11. Notification function seems like a mess. Can't wait for 2XL to come. Because it will be the biggest phone I'll own, I'm even thinking of letting go of my iPad Pro 10.5 as I find it too heavy to be used casually for reading in bed, etc; activities that I can do with a bigger mobile.
