Yeah. Thank God for Amazon return policy.
Think I'll just wait for the next few tech events to see what fall Sony is about. Rumors are the fall flagship will launch with Android O and be min bezel tall screen.

Bought. I gotta get my order in early. These things always sell out and take months

If it actually looks like that, holy shit I want one. Goddamn.
LG's making it so hopefully they slide that in while Google's not watching

The only thing is LG....haven't loads of their handsets had bootloop issues due to the solder used on the mobos?
Nexus 5X? 6P?
5x bootlooped, but hopefully that's fixed.
Nexus was not designed by Google, guys. Google even told the story that some manufacurer designed the Nexus devices and Google chose the one they liked the most and made some small changes. The Nexus 5X was still a LG phone, the 6P an Huawei device with Google as software engeneers. For Pixel Google decides on the hardware. Many people ignored the story and told their shit about it, even though Google said this even way back on the Galaxy Nexus (RIP) and the last Pixel event.
BUT: This doesn't mean it won't bootloop. You can find those on almost every smartphone. Hopefully they know what they are doing (which you can't depend on with Google)
I still hope they'll use 2 speakers. The single speaker of the Pixel was the biggest downgrade from the 6P :/ Miss it every time I watch youtube on that thing.

Small bezels, PHEW.
If the camera is as good as the previous Pixel/nexus camera's I'm in.

Huawei Made the 6P
Could consider it if it have an headphone jack and if they release it in Italy
Doubtful it'll have stereo speakers, and didn't the XDA leak a week or so ago say no headphone jack on the xl model??
Hopefully with it being made by LG the price will tank after a few months, not too hopeful of this though as Google never seem to produce enough of these units.

I'm hoping to replace my S7 with a Pixel or G6 so it'd be great if everyone sold their Pixel's off now and I could get one cheap

Whew. That's a damn good looking phone.
The front is at least

Back looks good too.

Shame that the bottom speaker doesn't appear to be on the front. Just need headphone jack confirmation and an at&t version and I'm finally upgrading.
I know, my point was both phones had bootloop problems 6P less so than the 5X.
We're going to eat fam
Every phone has a chance of bootlooping but the 6p was not known for it. Bad battery on the other hand...
What makes me sad is that the rest of the world will probably never see the pixel phones and it will most likely be expensive af
The real question is why haven't you bought it already?

Sony once again is trash at using Sony sensors.
can't they send some of their camera engineers over?

If their next flagship truly has barely any bezels and it was to become a battery champion, their camera would be the one thing that will probably ruin everything to me. The one on my Sony phone was good, but I refuse to go backwards from the S7.

You forgot no FP sensor.
As much as I rag on Sony I really want to like them. Their software supposedly is very good and they are pretty much the pioneers of water resistance, but they're either trying too hard or they just don't GAF. I can't tell which it is.

is it really forgetting?
or just assuming everyone in the thread knows that Sony phones have the fingerprint sensor disabled in software in the US because they are complete fucking idiots.
Looks fantastic.
Yep, this is my biggest concern. I hope they actually make the damn phone in appropriate quantities and allow other carriers (read: ATT) to sell it through their installment plans. But considering it's Google, I'm not hopeful.
