Just got my 3rd pixel 2 xl in the mail. I’m probably nitpicking here and the phone looks fine but the tray the phone sits in inside the box is all bent. This is exactly how it looks when I opened the box. Worries me that it’s a return or something. I’ll attach a pic but what the heck!

That does look suspiciously like a return.
It looks like **I** opened that box. I’m not good with cardboard.
But how does the phone itself seem? I’m not talking about how it looks. Is everything running okay so far? I know it just got here, so my question applies for when you can answer it, of course.
I finally got to soak in a nice hot tub.
I’ve been wanting to do that for weeks. But I had to get sick to finally get the chance. Everyone finally left me alone, so I went soaking. And was reminded that Siri can no longer hear commands when the phone is playing music.
Alexa has spoiled me. I can listen to music and interrupt the play and ask her to turn the sound down or play the next track. Unless I’m hallucinating, I remember a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away Siri used to be able to do that on iPhone, too.
Now she can’t. It’s a shame because my X sounds amazing playing music in the bathroom. Apple did a great job on the speakers. As I recall my Pixel 2 sounded very good, too.
So, I was wondering for those of you who still have your Pixels, can you get either Google Assistant or Alexa to control your music playback verbally?
I don’t have an Echo in the bathroom. Well I have an echo but only if I yell into the bathtub when it’s empty.
