Had the Pixel 9 a week now, honestly don't think I'll bother swapping to a 9 Pro, in hindsight I should have got the Pro to start with but there is always next year with the 10 Pro. ;)

S24 Ultra is in the drawer like an unwanted step child, if it still is around Christmas I'll probably sell it. The Pixel 9 was supposed to be a "cheap" (after trade in) spare phone. 😅

I sent my 15 Pro off to Music Magpie a couple of days ago. They downgraded it to 'good' from 'excellent', so I've requested it back. First time I've ever had anything re-graded by them.

There is the smallest of small scratches to the screen. It's not visible even under a bright light with the naked eye. Sometimes you can feel it though, if you run the edge of your finger nail across the screen. It must be a couple of mm in length tops.

Anyway... wasn't prepared to give it away for peanuts so I'll keep hold of it for now. It's worth way more to me than what they were offering.

Try the kiosks, I sold my wife's 15 in one and got full price even with some small scratches on the screen.

When I sold my Apple Watch Ultra the other day I also videoed it and made sure took photos of the parcel at post office too

This

Do it with all my gadgets; more so items I've sold on eBay and then sent via RMSD

Full clear pictures of it being wrapped/boxed and then a video to show it being put into the box, packed safely and then sealed/label being attached etc

Never had any issues thankfully

Yep I'm in this crew. I take no chances and like to give the seller assurances that I've done everything in my power to ensure they receive it in excellent condition.
 
Strangely, the Pixel 5 is the only one I never bought or owned.
I've had every single other pixel.

The original and the 4 were the best IMO but the 9 Pros are in that mix as GOAT now too.
Me too Pixel 2XL, 4XL, 6Pro, 7Pro, 8Pro 9ProXL
 
9 pro zoom test .5 to 20x zoom.

Not quite 23 ultra level, but still damn impressive for a phone.
