    Phone has a great camera. I'm still learning to use some of the other google features but so far it's been a good phone. The quality and brilliance of the pictures surpassed my expectations.

    There's nothing about this phone that I don't love. The camera quality is beyond anything I've ever used. The speakers are perfect. It's the perfect screen size for me and the amount of use it gets.

    I had an Android before purchasing this new phone. There is very little learning curve from the old to the new phone even though new phone has many more features and easy to use. Happy with new purchase.

    This is my second Pixel phone and I have LOVED them both. OF course the camera is superb, but it's so much more than that. Dumping iPhone was the best thing I ever did. This is much easier and intuitive to use.

    You can't get a better phone for the price. Has most of the core features and feel of the non A models for a fraction of the cost. Very responsive, excellent speakers, and screen. Couldn't be happier.

    I was looking to maximize my camera experience and I've always wanted to check out Google's phone interface. I was NOT disappointed. I'll definitely buy another Google phone in the future.

    Takes great photos.......more reliable pictures than our Samsung camera. Only wish a manual came with it.....this is our 1st cell phone. Hate having to go online to view a manual that isn't even complete.

    I was blown away by how long the battery lasted when I used this phone for about a week. I knocked it down a star due to the face I wanted a slightly faster processor so I went and got the normal Pixel 3 XL. I would still recommebd this phone for the price and performance.

    I knew about the Google Pixel camera before. This phone gives me a real feel about it. The display is not as premium as many other phones, however, that is reasonable considering the price.

    It's a mid range phone with premium features! The camera is the best quality out of all its attributes, but gets all the job done. I hope google continues this line of mid-range Pixel models.

    I've had an iPhone for several years, and this phone has impressed me. It's great phone and has everything you would need. The specs are the most highend, but I have found no performance issues so far.
