I like the specs and the software, but that back panel is ugly tbh. Probably the ugliest Google phone since Nexus.

Nexus phones never impressed me on the hardware side, but this one seems like a very stable choice. Too bad it doesn't have waterproof and SD card though. I would of jumped ships and buy it.
Now I'm still thinking I should buy it :))

Those are some expensive phones. But at least HTC made them and that the OS is pure and lean. They would definitely run great for years to come.

Long live Google. Unlike Apple or Samsung, Google products actually influence life of billions which makes it a truly innovative company. Their product lineup is so huge!
Google maps, Blogger, YouTube, Google search engine, Gmail, Pixel smartphones and laptop, Google WiFi, Google Home, Adsense, AI, VR, what not!!
Apple is pure evil and nothing infront of Google.
This is coming from a logical guy whose first two gadgets bought were iPod touch and iPod shuffle but soon learnt they were just selling oranges at the price of Apple!

So let's imagine that Joe Bloogs owns a Nexus 6 and bought it on a 2 year contract when it was new almost exactly 2 years ago. His renewal and hence upgrade will now be due. So is he very likely to swap it, I won't say upgrade, to the XL? He loves the 5.96 inch screen of the Nexus 6. So I know what! I'll get a new phone that has a 5.5 inch screen but is almost exactly the same physical size, where the battery is less than 10% larger and is more expensive than the Note 7. Not forgetting the Note 7 comes with 64 GB of internal storage as standard and that the One Plus 3 that costs far less also comes with 64 GB by default. I can really see that happening!
Even if they had just taken the Nexus 6P and swapped the 810 processor for the 821 it would give the XL a damn good run for its money especially given how overpriced the XL is.

They tend to cost a few €100 more than similar phones. I mean the Honor 8 is over €400, where as the Moto Z Play is less, and the Moto Z play is priced €100 more than the Moto X Play, which is also a mistake, with only FHD and S625.

Goodbye, Pixel (XL). It was nice knowing you. I'll forever remember the 10 minutes I spent studying info till I found the price.
Xiaomi MI5S, here I come!
Half the price, nearly same product. Not exactly the same, but HALF the price. HALF.
