Just pre-ordered my pixel 2. Pretty excited about it. Been due for an upgrade for a while.

Externally, the Nexus 5x may have less bezel area than the Pixel 2. That thing is fugly. Plus no expandable storage, no headphone jack, and it lacks Gigabit speed capability.

What the frick Google???

i thought the pixel2 looked really nice.

i can't belive people are still fussing about expandable storage

i cant imagine having anything permanent on my phone that requires more than 32GB...16GB even.

offline music library when your data limits aren't huge.

When can I expect the pixel 1's to go on sale? I'm ready to move from the nexus 5x

Does anyone know how android OS works with the 2016 Yukon? I love the Apple CarPlay it currently has, but this pixel has me intrigued.

I wonder how many people we could find defending no headphone jack now that bitched at Apple for doing it. I still miss my headphone jack and having to keep an adapter with you is a pain in the arse.

Certainly would get the xl if I was in the market. It looks really nice.

I may upgrade to the pixel once the price drops.

I'm sure it's compatible with android auto but you may want to Google it.

I am disappointed about the headphone jack. I have some Bluetooth headphones, but I use some wired ones when I do yardwork and I have a square reader. Also have a aux cord for music on my boat. The dongle will just be another thing to keep up with.

As far as the storage, ive never had a phone over 32 gb, and I have never really come close to filling it. I keep all my music, around 800 songs on my device. Right now on my s6 active I have around 9 gb free still.

I was going back and forth between the Moto x4 and the pixel 2 since I am switching to Google fi. I just think the glass back and raised camera on the x4 would get broken pretty quick if I bought it. I've got kids and my phone gets dropped a good bit.

Yeah but if you are in a semi remote area, you're gonna get raped by BBC because he knows you have t mobile and can't call anybody and you like pink products.

Got that too but my phone is rooted to a pixel ROM so they think my phone is a pixel even though it's a Nexus 5x. Think they'll know if I turn it in?

I hate my S7 Edge. Verizon is offering a 300 dollar trade in for the new pixel.

Very tempting.

Just preordered the Pixel 2 and plan on switching from ATT to Verizon. Have been using the Samsung Galaxys for the past 5 or so years. Hopefully this phone is worth the switch.

what are saying exactly? i have a nexus 5x and have never had trouble playing stuff on my sound system. whether the phone is charging or not.
You used to be able to plug USB into a physical aux connection and enjoy media off of your device that way. That changed with the 5X.

So the pixel has no aux jack and doesn't even come with headphones?
