I guess for me there was just something about the Pixel 2. There is also something about the X and it will be difficult to wave it off goodbye but I think ultimately, the money from the X sale will really come in handy. I just love the form factor of this little Pixel too.
I think if I didn't have the Pixelbook, I may not be in this predicament... But it works so well with it that it almost seems silly not to own a Pixel 2, especially with how cheap they are now and how much I like it.
Also, I think the sale for the Pixels are ending tomorrow over here. So it will be back up to £629 instead of £499 from then. That's kinda why I jumped on it again now just in case I regretted it next week...
The Kinda Blue is gorgeous. More Kinda Grey, but I like it all the same.
After owning the 2 XL for a few days, the only thing I missed from it was that orange button. But got me a minty fresh one now, so imma happy man!
It also seems to not have the weird quirk my white one did (Frosty, lol).
When I double tapped to get a full stop (period), at the end of a sentence, my white one used to almost have a delay and I'd end up with a space and then a full stop.
Like this .
This blue one doesn't do that, thankfully.
Oh I didn’t know you’d get full refund if you kept anything. Lol I would have kept the dongle for the headphones. I’m always misplacing my Apple ones.
All 3 of my RMA emails stated to keep all cables and accessories, as the replacement unit may not come with any. I also double checked with the Google reps each time and they confirmed for me to keep my accessories. I think they're operating under the assumption that my RMA may be refurbished, but obviously this early in the Pixel 2 product cycle all replacements are brand new as far as I know. I've returned my previous 2 RMA's phone only without any issues, so I can't imagine it's any different this time around. Maybe the procedure is different over in the UK?
I guess that makes sense to have different policies for different kinds of returns. Mine was the return within the return period. So was my husband’s, though he discovered after the fact he forgot to pack his charger back in but they credited him anyway.
Going great so far. I called my dad on the 8 Plus and the call quality was definitely improved over the unlocked one I had returned.
I looked like I had been fighting raccoons over a roast chicken carcass in the trash. My hair was sticking up, and you could look at my eyes and tell I hadn’t had any coffee yet. Yikes.

Cool! Thank you. I suppose I could have Googled it myself haha
Yes mine is always on. It was something I used to wish the iPhone X had. I love it on my Samsung phones. On my S7 Edge I even had Shiba Inu on my display.
I think there was always a minimum purchase amount for free shipping.
Oh jeez. You don’t happen to be one of those people who can’t wear a watch because they stop running or make street lights flicker when you walk by?
Sorry, I know it’s not you. Google has a problem on their hands with the larger Pixel 2. I don’t know what kind or how much oversight they provided on the manufacture of the 2 XL but it clearly wasn’t enough.
