Just got my Pixel XL and loving it! Glad they gave me black instead of the white one that I thought I was going to get since I had the frost 6p.
Mine still hasn't shipped.
Are they not swapping for the Pixel anymore? I called today about my 6P charging super slow and they wanted to charge me $79 to replace it

That's still not bad for getting a $900 pixel
I love my Pixel btw, kinda glad my Nexus 6P shit itself

I'm anxiously awaiting my XL 128gb. This battery on the 6P makes me want to throw the phone against the wall.Ditto.
Still not shipped. No Assurant.Have either of you heard anything about your phones being shipped yet or any update? Did you have Assurant protect? I wonder if they are prioritising those over ones that were out of warranty?
That's awful and yeah I could see that happening. What date did you talk with a rep about getting a Pixel? I know the policy changed overnight and stopped honoring replacements 17th but I felt like you placed yours like a few days before they changed the internal policy. I would press the issue to at least get a response.Still not shipped. No Assurant.
I'm thinking what happened is they actually got more calls than they anticipated after the Pixel replacement news got online. It's like the Slickdeals effect.

This thread makes me sad, started off so positive only to end up with disappointment.
Nice! That's awesome!I do not have Assurant protect.
I just contacted Google and should have mine by the next 48hrs.
Yeah, I really liked this phone when I first got it but around February it just wasn't the same.This thread makes me sad, started off so positive only to end up with disappointment.

Although my 6P is dead and I didn't get a Pixel, I'm happy with my new battery life.
Gone are the days of charging at home, at work, and again at home in the evening!
But what phone did you get?
On another note, is anyone doing a trade in for the 2 XL with their replacement phones?
That's what I'm trying to figure out, so I thought I would ask here. My concern is that by next year, it'll be worth significantly less for trade-in, since the 6P is worth shit now, so now might be the best time to make the deal, even if you do end up losing half its value right from the jump.Is that even worth it? Getting only $400 bucks for trading in a brand new Pixel XL seems like not that great of a deal. Maybe next year for a Pixel 3, yeah.
The 128 GB Pixel XL is worth $410 in trade-in if it still works. So yeah, that is a significant discount right now.I got a Nexus 6P replacement, I'll see what I can get it for it. If it cuts off half the price and I can pick up a new Pixel 2 XL for $400-500, I'll do it in a heartbeat, but I doubt it.

Mine came, as well! High five!
I think I will trade up for Pixel 2 XL, though. Anyone else?

oh yeah, already have that going lol
we get $410 back.
Most likely it'll drop as soon as the Pixel XL's value drops, which I think will happen sooner than the 2 XL's will, unless it totally bombs.How long until that $410 value drops, do you think?
I feel like I should probably wait until the prices of used 128GB Pixel XLs are at least that, or until the price of a Pixel 2 XL drops.
And even then, I'm actually not that hyped about the Pixel 2 to begin with...
I gotta say, I'm really liking the Pixel XL so far. I was using it all day without worrying about the battery, which was really nice. There was one moment, when the battery hit around 70%, that I was like oh shit, but then I realized that I actually have the full meter again.

16 motherfuckin' hours left at 56%! On my 6P, the time left would be about 5 minutes, if it were even still on!
