I'm a Verizon customer eligible for a new upgrade. I currently have an IPhone 6s, and had a 4s before that. I know a lot of people are either Android or IPhone so looking for oppinions. The phones I'm interested in are the S7, Pixel, or IPhone 7. I'm pretty set on the Iphone 7 but open to the other 2 options.

I switched from an iPhone 6 Plus to a Google Pixel XL. No regrets.

The camera on this phone is phenomenal. The user interface is very fast and responsive to the touch. Plus the battery life on this phone now gets me through the whole day without a need to charge.

LG V20 is the best choice bar none.

Yeah the battery feature is really selling me. Idk though I love how IPhone runs with no flaws. My wife's last two phones were Samsung and LG and seemed like they were always messing up and dragging arse compared to my 4s

Just don't let a stiff breeze hit the camera lens.

I used to be a galaxy guy, switched to the pixel xl when my note 7 has all those blowing up blowing issues. I don't think I could own and different phone and be any happier with a device. Google pixel has been fantastic.

+1 on the battery. I run my business through my phone I would usually chew though 2 1/2 batteries on my note 7 during a days time.

The pixel lasts all day 90% of the time

I'd go with the Pixel if this is your first foray into Android

If you go Android then go with the Pixel. No brainer in my mind since it is Google's own phone and you will receive updates and great support.

Loving my Pixel XL and Google Fi phone service.

I travel a lot and work in Afghanistan most of the time. The phone and service have both been phenomenal. The phone is fast, interface snappy, and in my office at work I have a full phone signal whereas before I had no phone signal in my office.

Google Fi has been awesome as well. So far I have used my phone in the states, Amsterdam, Dubai, and Afghanistan with no problems what-so-ever. Even had LTE data in Dubai and Amsterdam. Here in Afghanistan I bounce back and forth between 3G and Edge, but that is due to the limitations of the cell provider here, Roshan. Texts are free. Since I am in Afghanistan I can call Afghan cell numbers for free, calls back to states are .20/min. Data is same price as in states; $10 per Gb. I have a US phone number so family, friends and business associates in states can call me and not be charged international rates.

This phone and service are the best decision I have ever made regarding tech.

I switched from iPhone to Pixel about a month ago. I have no regerts. It's an easy transition to make. Interface is pretty similar to iphone.
