regs, 05 Oct 20163 means no water resistance. Just little rain. Most top pho... moreit seem you wanna bring your phone to the most extreme condition.. what do you expect from a regular-everyday phone? did you want to submerge it into salt water? snowy mountain? protection against blizzard or tsunami-resistant? then go buy rugged phones such panasonic, even samsung galaxy active still not that tough compared to panasonic

Yuck ugly design. Google should fire its Pixel design team right away. Whenever i think of buying this phone, this ugly back makes me sick.

Everytime I see "ugly" I take another look at the phone and wonder! I honestly feel someone said ugly and everyother person jumped. Am waiting for Jerryrigeverything to do a ruggedity test and if it survives, it's as good a phone as the best out there.... Common guys this phone is about performance, ain't you tired of apple devices crushing our beloved Android performance wise?

still an overpriced iphone with headphone jack and a home button moved to the back.
hardware are not even worth half the selling price.and with no sd card slot,it's google's way of implementing crapple way of money grab.
no amouont dust proof or water proof is going to make this phone worth spending $1K.
they are better off calling this the ipixel, removing the the headphone jack and start selling igoogle airpods to grab more money.
with so much hype about their "new" phone, it's not that much different from icrap 7

Not water proofing this phone was a BIG mistake. Many of us will purchase a note 7 when they get the battery thing figured out. I can't believe Google came this far one every aspect of the phone when compared to the MOTO X only to go backwards on water resistance.

Actually, it just makes it even better. If anyone watched the live feed there is more to be said in accolades than a little splash coverage. I am always careful with any phone and most don't have any protection. At least these have enough for generalities. The Ai and other qualities, pure genius.

Doesn't matter, that's more than OK. VLF artificial intelligence, camera. Character build and feel is stellar. Totally gorgeous handsets. Amazing how negative people get. It's a first world issue. Their is always something with any phone to pick at. Try the $1500-$2000 in Australia for iPhone. No way. Enjoy whatever phone you have or want to. Discerning adults will choose to suite budget and lifestyle.

The Pixel & the Nexus are both aimed at software developers. I say, let them do the beta testing for the next Android revision.

at that price your better off paying for a S7 or s7 Edge. It's not water proof, it doesn't look very nice to be honest, and a huge fail if they are trying to take on "apple" as it seems like they are trying to do by going premium. It's up to them if they want to attempt that, but man... it really doesn't look very good, for a 1000 dollar phone. And no, please don't cry and accuse me of being an apple guy, that phone is not the best looking phone, and extremely over priced.
