A: I really cannot believe the amount of people who will answer questions but have ABSOLUTELY no idea what they are talking about. Here it is, plain and simple. You can buy this phone, pop in any SIM from any of the major carriers and it WILL work, period. The phone only comes with 3 apps from Verizon and they are all user removable, Period. The ONLY difference between this version and the Google Store version is the bootloader. The Verizon version is locked and the Google Store version is not. If you just plan on using the phone for day to day use and not planning on installing custom ROMs you will be fine and have no idea what a bootloader is. Chances are every phone you have ever used or purchased had a locked bootloader and you had no idea because you never cared to install any custom ROMs. This is the answer, this is the real answer and something that ANYONE can find using a very basic tool called Google Search.
Q: I pre-ordered, can I expect the phone on the 20th or does it ship on the 20th?
A: Sadly me too. I'm pretty disappointed in Best Buy and Google. A pre-order use to mean you were guaranteed to get the item the day it released. unfortunately now it doesn't mean that at all, actually no idea what a pre-order means.
Q: Is this phone only available on Verizon?
A: The short answer is no. Verizon has an exclusive as a "retail" partner from a carrier perspective. Obviously you can get a Pixel at Best Buy which is another retailer but you can add this phone onto any carrier. Things to consider: If you buy it from Google, the phone is unlocked and available at full price or through financing. You will get the security and OS updates from Google. If you buy it from Project Fi, it is also available unlocked despite the Fi sim at full price or through financing. You will get his security and OS updates from Google. If you buy it Verizon, you can buy it on contract, full price, or through financing. If you buy it from Verizon, Google will handle the monthly security updates but Verizon will handle the larger OS updates "in partnership" with Google. (This sounds like a repeat of the Galaxy Nexus.) But the bootloader is encrypted and the phone is unlockable.
Q: Does your Best Buy Pixel phone have the Verizon crapware on it?
A: It doesn't. Per previous nexus phones, it depends on the sim card installed upon first boot. If you have the verizon sim card (it comes preinstalled) it will download just 3 apps, @@however they are uninstallable@@. If you remove the verizon sim card, and use another sim (the phone is sim unlocked by the way) from another carrier and turn it on, it will not download the 3 verizon apps.
A: I called Customer Service and was told it could take up to 30 days to receive the $100 e-gift card. I was told this is a new policy, because they don't want anyone getting the gift cad and then returning the phone.
Q: If I purchase this through Best Buy Verizon, will it be usable on the Sprint network?
A: Yes it will work on Sprint. You will have to order the appropriate SIM card from sprint..
Q: Can u transfer ur songs and photo from ur iPhone to this kind of phone
A: Best Buy has the tools to transfer photos and music, documents and more from your existing phone to the Pixel. That's irrespective of the type of phone you currently have.
A: yes it does and if you're a google subscriber, you wont even need that much, and RAM is what it is on all google phones, no exclusive changes that
