After about 1.5 months the phone is responsive and quick. Battery life is outstanding at close to 1.5 days. The only drawback in my opinion is that the phone doesn't feel as premium as my Pixel XL 2 did also I beleive the XL 2 had a slightly bigger screen. Overall this phone is nice and I have no regrets with my purchase.

Very fast, very simple. The Google Assistant and Google UI really makes the difference here compared to other phones at this price point.
Technically a slight sacrifice on hardware for the price, but I have yet to notice it.

I'm conflicted with pixel. I went from the 2 to the 5 5G and I doubt i'll jump to the 6. I wouldn't consider getting the 5 unless you want a great camera. There's an iphone in the home but my family is convinced the pixel takes far better pictures.

Got phone to replace pixel that my daughter had.
She likes the pixil and was pleased to see that the 5 had the fingerprint reader on the back and that the features were well worth the wait for the 5.
She feels that it is much more intuitive and easier to use then her last pixel.

Best Pixel so far. I have owned every pixel model since the first one. Regular size and xl. This is by far the best form factor so far. The camera has always been the best and now the video had stepped up and is excellent! If you know pixel devices, you know, they just work!

So far so good. The screen is nice, not too bulky and it's clear. Love the fingerprint scanner and the placement. I enjoy it a lot. The only thing that's weird is you can't change the lock screen clock or info that comes up. But other than that I like it a lot.

I love my pixel 5! I was ready for an upgrade and didn't want another Samsung, because I had issues with my previous phone. And I didn't want another iphone. Pixel 5 is awesome!
Battery life is amazing, the overall quality just is great!

Battery life is great, stock android is great and with support for dual sim we were able to added both the the personal number and work number to the pixel 5. Now my wife only has to carry one phone.

Awesome phone. Had a 2xl and upgraded. Only wish it was XL, but I'm still glad. Battery will last for 2 day w minimal use. Purchased on black friday so I save $200+trade in 2XL

The Google 5 phone is easy to use and very versatile. Data transfer from an earlier model was pretty simple and easy. The conversion process was well done at my local Best Buy, and they also ansered my questions about the phone and order.

Very nice smartphone. Great screen and fantastic camera. not as fast as the competing flagships. if the camera is the most important feature, then go with the Pixel 5. if you need more speed or expandable memory, go with the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE.

Nice phone, I like it a lot. Have had it for 1 month. The only thing not great are the built in speakers. I was replacing an original Pixel 1 with this phone and honestly feel like the sound on Pixel 1 was better.... Great battery life.

I've been using my Pixel 2XL since launch, but now updates are no longer being supported. I am very pleased so far in the upgrades that Google has implemented. I have also being holding on without updating, because they removed the fingerprint scanner. Fortunately with the 5, it's back!
So far, highly recommend!
This review is from Google - Pixel 5 5G 128GB (Verizon)

This is my third Pixel phone. This is thinner, faster, and has a longer battery life. I wish it had a headphone jack, but I knew it didn't when I bought it. I can't knock it for my personal taste.

Only had this phone for about 2 weeks now but I am loving it so far. Battery life is fantastic, getting 1-2 days with pretty heavy use. Coming from an OG Pixel so quite the step up.
