I decided to scoop one up on Swappa... some good prices on new ones with the T-Mobile promos

Pixel 2 XL

yeah the notch design wasn't that bad and the screen wasnt bad considering, this is from me coming from the pixel 2xl.

Point is I can dig it.

My Pixel screen looks great so no issues with trying their bright panel ...I just want to give one a go see how it performs through daily usage ...notch doesn’t bother me as iPhone I’m so used to it ...

Interesting story about this shot I covered in my YouTube channel. But Im hoping the reason Google didn't go the Lenovo route was because of the placement of the sensors.

Agreed many great choices... All have a few things here or there but across the board they are all in the same area spec wise..

Pixel 2 XL

Yeah. It's be a while since I've been genuinely excited about a phone release. Probably the RAZR Maxx HD was probably the last phone that made me want to chuck over money to buy it out right. The Note 8 might be close now, but I can't fathom paying that much for a phone even in installments. For the first time, I'm almost considering going down market. Few manufacturers support modding. ROM advancements and forks have pretty much dropped off the face of the planet and fewer manufacturers are going to Verizon.

While I was creating my video for YouTube I found myself focused on something that has my attention. And that is the 4gb of Ram in the pixel 3xl. With even your cheap companies have 8gb of Ram, if Google for 4gb will you still buy?

For me, no. I'll just keep my pixel 2xl another year

I think I would. 4 gigs of ram is not that bad for general usage. I read a while back the average user uses less than 3 gigs. now if I did a lot of gaming or multi-tasking, the more the better. However the more ram you have, the faster your battery will drain so there will be a trade off.

I would tend to agree except when the One Plus 6 is 200 cheaper than the Pixel 2xl and it has 8 gigs of ram, if Google is looking to charge premium prices for this year's pixel then throwing in some extra Ram isn't too much to ask. Their software experience is nice but not worth a premium without the hardware.

Now I may be looking too much into a pre-production model. But yeah I will either save my money this year or look at something else.
