    I've had this phone for a month and so far all I can say is that I love it. It's fast, everything works like it's supposed to, and I get technical support 24/7. I also love the pure Android experience, and let's be honest, the only reason why I paid the over price is for the Android. You can't find a better SO on a phone PERIOD. If you don't like Android then I don't think this phone is for you (but I can't see what you wouldn't like about it), if you like Android and have been having the horrendous Samsung cheap and slow copy of Android-based SO or other brand (a.k.a HTC, Sony etc) then please get this phone. It won't disappoint you at all.

    This is a great phone. I went from the Samsung Galaxy S6 to this phone. It is great to not have all the bloatware that comes standard with any Samsung phone. SInce most everything I use is Google anyways, this ohone is the perfect one. The voice commands work awesome every time, unlike the Samsung S Voice which was sketchy at best. I do wish that there was a memory card slot. The battery life is extraordinary. I charge it until about 630AM and then don't plug it in again until about 11-1130PM and always has at LEAST 35-40% battery left. None of my Samsungs ever kept there battery that long.

    After having carrier locked phones for so long, the difference in having something unlocked without all the unnecessary bloatware (seriously who wants an NFL app?) has been a world of difference. This phone is so responsive and I've loved it so far.

    This is the iPhone for Android users. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of Samsung phones but it "just works". Beautiful display, great battery life, awesome camera. The total package for Android phone users.

    I have had several Samsung phones from the S4, S5, S6 edge, S7 edge and of course the Note 7. The Pixel XL is the best phone by far. The battery life is excellent. I use my Pixel XL off and on from 6am until around 11pm and usually have about 45% battery life remaining. It is truly the best phone I've ever owned. Another great thing is Google pushes security and bug updates each month. This keeps the Pixel running smooth. Bottom line: This phone looks similar to an iphone but is nothing like an iphone. If you are undecided go ahead and take a chance with this phone.

    What a phenomenal phone. I believe it does everything the Pixel 2 does once you upgrade to the latest Android. Best phone I have had in a while. The only drawback is that the single speaker is on the bottom of the phone.

    Great Camera can't be beat by any other smart phone. Stock Android is always nice and it takes out a lot of bloat ware. Simple on design. Great phone to have if your not worried about design.

    As a longtime Android user and Nexus program fan, this phone really is top notch. Sure, it is missing "premium features" like wireless charging and being waterproof, but aside from this, it is a perfect Android phone. It has fast response time, gets monthly security updates, and allows for tons of customization. If you want even more customization, download a launcher such as Nova Launcher in order to do tons more (scrollable dock, screen gestures, etc). Fingerprint scanner is blazing fast and accurate.

    The item received is NOT the item I desired; I specifically advised that I wanted the Pixel 5" basic and not the XL; I did not realize they sold me the XL until I ordered a case for it and it would not fit!! Unfortunately; it was easier to change the case rather than the phone.

    The Google Pixel XL has a nice camera! I am used to Samsung Galaxy Series but I am getting used to this now. Battery seems to be lasting longer than my Note 4.

    I resisted replacing my old phone because of the cost of a new one. I saw the Pixel XL for the best price ever at Best Buy on Cyber Monday. I went for it, and I love my new phone! Thanks, Best Buy.

    In my opinion, this Phone is the best on the market; I know you (i) phone people are not going to like this, but this phone does it all... It's a perfect size, has every feature; you could dream of, and the camera is just the best. As a Professional Photographer, I do know what I speak. I am a big Google product user, so this phone is perfect for me. No Matter what you Have for a smartphone now, you must look at the Pixel XL. Otherwise, you are not getting the best available!
