    Camera quality is insane, and phone is feature packed. Other than a larger screen, I am not sure why you would spends hundreds more for another "flagship".

    Upgraded from a Pixel 2. Fingerprint reader on the back where Gaia intended. Stock Android....and not a $1000+ like other phones. Can't think of any negatives.

    I switched from a older pixel phone and found this one much faster an easy to use. I like having 128 GB of storage as my old pixel had less storage.

    Takes better photos than phones that cost much much more. Clean Android experience too, so no ads or unnecessary pre-installed third party apps

    Wonderful phone. The Pixel series always offers the best Android experience. A big step up in performance compared to the old Pixel 3.

    Love my new cellphone! Everything works perfectly except the speaker phone. I'm not sure if I need to adjust on settings. But everything else is wonderful.

    The screen is a little bit small for me. The camera is great, but I have faced a few freezing issues. I would probably choose a Samsung if I didn't need the camera

    Amazing battery life, smooth system despite lower spec chip, 5G performance great. Wish it was about $100 cheaper but that’s not Besy Buy’s fault at all. Amazing phone

    Pros: Stock Android, Good Cameras, no bloat like Samsung and the others Cons: Pricey for a Snapdragon 765G. Basic usage it's fine. Multi-task or in hot environment (e.g. phone mount in car) if you try to quickly switch apps you can see it get sluggish Stock Launcher smooth animations. Use gestures and any other launcher you'll get some glitches. Otherwise if 3rd party launcher need to use the three buttons or you'll have graphical glitches occasionally. Google it.

    This is my first Pixel and I have to say that I'm really impressed. For a device not running a flagship 800 series processor, it's really fast and responsive, probably due to that 90 hertz refresh rate. Honestly, I don't think the average person will know or care given the stock Google software experience that's not slowed down or bloated with a bunch of extra apps or thick skins. My biggest problem was getting the 3 months free of YouTube Premium. I still don't have it and I called YouTube support and everything. Not really helpful and no resolution. Still a great phone though.

    Big improvement over Pixel 2XL. The screen is just as big, but the phone is much more manageable with 1 hand. Battery life so far seems very good
