Anyone know how long it usually takes the Pixel to come back in stock?

I chatted with a representative and they said they couldn't give an ETA. Has anyone waited it out before or do they go out of stock frequently?

For the record, they have the 5.5" in stock, but I don't think I want that big of a phone.

The Pixel XL is a nice size. It took a couple of months to get mine through Verizon. Luckily they Verizon allows you to order it when it is out of stock. Not sure why Google doesn't allow you to do that.

I requested a notification at the Google store for when they would be back in stock. It probably took 2 weeks for them to notify me.

In the meantime I stopped by Best Buy and the Verizon rep drove to another store in town to bring me a regular sized Pixel.

The Verizon Pixel I have is supposedly locked until I pay off the phone (I don't know how to check) but there was zero Verizon bloatware on the phone.

I'd check Verizon or Best Buy if you don't want to wait.

They also gave me a $100 Best Buy gift card.

The XL is smaller than my 6P was, but it's a good size. I bought mine on Swappa. Got tired of waiting and got a great deal for a mint condition really blue with warranty and a lot of accessories thrown in.


Have you looked on Swappa?

I'm not familiar with Swappa, and I'm not on Verizon.


How do y'all like the phone, btw?

I'm happy with mine. Upgraded from a LG G3.

Surprised they aren't in stock. I got mine when it was new out. I went to a Verizon Cooperate Store, and had no issues.

Pixel is a great phone, but not as good as advertised. I went from a 6s, and the transition was easy, but I wish I would've stayed IOS. don't know how true this is, but supposedly the XL performance is better than the small one which is what I have

Sign up and get alerts each time a certain phone you want is uploaded. I watched for about 2 weeks seeing which phones went for what before I jumped.

Mine is a Google Unlocked version. I used it on TMo for about a week until my Fi sim came in the mail. If Fi sucks, I can go to any carrier.

Swappa

All Verizon Wireless LTE phones are sim unlocked. You can pop any ATT or TMobile sim in a Verizon pixel and it will work just fine without any type of unlock code.

ATT,VZW and TMobile all share a couple of common LTE Bands so voice and Data will work fine.

I got an email that it was back in stock at 6:15 last night. Didn't check my phone until 9:30 and they were sold out again.
