    alski10, 04 Dec 2018I wonder what the next bugs are gonna be Screen turning yellow on the XL. Look at the the retail units. When you see the regular and XL side by side, they difference on white quality is shocking. Granted, they are on 8 hours per day, but extrapolate that out, and within the next 3 months real world use, those XL screens will start flagging.

      dudecool, 04 Dec 2018I'll keep going... sub par battery life, no headphone jack.... moreI don't find that at all in fact when the screen is on its broadest it's way strong

      It's been flawless except for a few teething issues but now that it's all set up properly I really enjoying the small pixel 3, is beautiful, everything works well and I use the headphones with the dongle for conference calls and it's been perfect. Believe me I would say otherwise

          Dolanescu, 04 Dec 2018All android phones and the entire environment is GOOGLE... ... morewhat exactly are you talking about? there is no doubt that google is a successful company. but we're here talking about how well google did with pixel 3. and apparently they did it far away from well.

          So many bugs (hardware and software-wise)... It seem to be a lottery when it comes to the device you'll get. And some of the software bugs is far from anything you'd expect from google. especially if you did it terrible, you better fix it quickly.

If Google is not good... how can others android phone makers can be good? android.. google play... youtube... chrome... maps... google photo... one drive... google assistant... google google google... so google phones integrate the best all google environment... so... the best android experience...

            Today the software is the most important thing... and this gives you the best user experience... the hardware is good everywhere...

                  Which one of those camera-fixes fixes the "lost" / not saving pictures bug?! Are there any further descriptions? Those descriptions sound almost as fancy as marketing stuff we read nowadays.

                  This is a tech-company. How about documenting it like one.

                        I switched some of our aging HTCs to Pixel 3 not Xl this year and really love its bright clean classic look and performance. Battery lasts and lasts and of course the photography. Great size for me. really happy.

                                    design is average lets face it... that notch is disgusting, no face unlock or in-screen fingerprint..microphone sounds like one on a 2010 phone...

                                    straight garbage... this phone should be priced on par with a Oneplus 6T or even abit less.
