Did you opt for the 64gb?
I ordered mine yesterday. 32gb AND a Project Fi sim card. I am excite!
I ordered on Thursday last week at around 2:40 pm standard time. Just got the phone today. Overnight my ass...loving the phone though lol
I got mine from b&h video. $329, no tax, free expedited shipping (2 days) and a $20 gift card
Evening,
I've pre-ordered the Pixel 128gb in Quite Black (the blue wasn't available--waaah!) and an XL to test which is best for me. Estimated delivery 24-26th Oct.
How about you?
i preordered the 32gb in black, Oct 24, 2016 – Oct 26
i think i read somewhere blue is exclusive to the US
up on CPW with £50 play voucher and shipping by 20th! Damn you El goog

Contracts are a bit steep!
Way way too expensive for me. :crying:
Looks like it will be the one plus 3 for me.
I'm still on my M7 which I bought for £480 when it was new.
So yeaaaah I was not prepared for these prices.
I'd probably pay £550 for a 128GB, 5" Pixel. But that's a full £150 less than what it currently is. I can't justify that, no way.
Guess I'll wait.

M7 here too. Really had my hopes up when rumours of an HTC Nexus started. Now the Pixel is here I can't justify the cost. There's nothing extraordinary and the real killer for me is the software update support hasn't been changed from the Nexus.
I pre ordered the Pixel 32gb then cancelled the order when my sanity kicked back in. I'm just going to keep my Nexus 6P for another year. I can live without google assistant and the pixel launcher. That being said I am really excited to see what google does with the pixel brand.
I ordered the Pixel 128GB in black from CPW - tried to order on the Google Store, but it broke (clicked to confirm purchase and it just looked at me like a demented labrador). Same price as a ludicrously expensive iPhone 7, but I wanted a 'pure android' phone with the latest updates, enough storage and wanted it to fit comfortably in my pocket - so either pay silly money or compromise on one of my three requirements.
Website initially indicated delivery date of October 20th, but showed October 21st when I ordered. Presumably at these prices there won't be the long waiting lists that there were for the 6P and the 5.
I was very disappointed to see that the pricing is inline with the Apple iPhone 7. Weird, as previous Google phones (Nexus) were priced considerably much lower. I wonder where the spike in price has come from? Google trying to be as greedy as Apple?

Massive price difference compared to the new Google Pixel!
The blue colour kinda looks a bit too plastic for my liking

This is XDA, I am sure your 6P will be able to get the Pixel Launcher and or Assistant. If you root it, in time you'll probably get the same Pixel experience on your 6P.
So So disappointed with the pixel phones and their prices, what was Google thinking?
Mine's on order from CPW. Delivery for 20th October. It was expensive but I figured if I didn't order it, every day I would waste time thinking about ordering it. I was like this with the Moto Z; ordered it, and then sent it back.
Thinking now though...would the Moto Z be a better phone in the end...hmmmm
I may have accidentally ordered one (Black 128GB) direct from the Google Store as I'm thinking the customer services will be better based on past experience if I get any problems.
I was torn between the Pixel and Pixel XL. Given I have a 6P the XL would have been the natural choice, however I don't think I can justify the extra cost (hard enough to justify as it is). Plenty of time to cancel/change my mind though
Same here @Azarin. 128gb in black.
The XL price was just a stretch too far, plus, I only have small hands
Ordered from Google, IMO the customer support is better than CPW. I have sent things back to google in the past without issue.
Soon I will be retiring my Honor 5x (which was a standby phone after my MotoX Style broke, and they couldn't repair it...long story..)
I've been hanging on to my HTC One M8 waiting on the new phones to be announced. The price is quite steep but is compounded by the raw deal for UK purchases.
The Pixel is 650 USD in the US which is just under 510GBP. In the US you get the DayDream Viewer chucked in as a sweetener - but not in the UK. If you want to buy that (once available) its an additional 69 GBP
So, UK price for the pack is 668GBP v 510 GBP for the same in the US......which seems to be completely taking the p!ss - 30% dearer...
I'm wondering if I should sensibly look at something else - Oneplus 3??

Op3 tempting but bigger than I really want.
I've pre-ordered on EE with an early upgrade, only a few days early.
Will this phone have loads of **** installed from EE or will this be just a google phone?
I hate it when carriers put their **** on it!

Does the CPW pixel xl come with an unlocked bootloader like the phones bought from Google play store?

If you bought it online and it's less than 7 working days ago, threaten to return it under the distance selling act unless they give you the discount.

Fastboot and see if device is unlocked, I just wanted to know if it's the same as buying from the play store as those devices are or can be unlocked
Just got mine (Pixel 5" 128GB Black) from cpw and bootloader cannot be unlocked by normal "fastboot oem unlock" or "fastboot flashing unlock" commands. I had to use dePixel8 first and it worked. But this should only work before Android 7.1.1.
The price of an Honor 8 (US Version) has dropped to only $261.00 USD. This is down about $50 from only a few days ago.
EDIT: The price seems to be jumping around. Sorry if the price is changed when you click on the link. I just bought a Pearl White model for $260.00.

B&H has it for $299.99 plus no tax (unless you are in NY) and free shipping:

Its a heck of a phone for $260USD, nothing comes close. Really nice now with Nougat and EMUI 5.
For get Amazon. Newegg.

B&H had the 32GB for $299.99 & 64GB for $349.99 for the last couple of days. I just checked and they are back to the regular prices. I was going to wait and go into the retail store tomorrow (Sunday) and pick one up, but I missed it.
Anyway, I just ordered the 64GB pearl white model on Amazon. Amazon currently has the 64GB model at $319.99. Not sure how long that will last.

Grabbed a 32gb on Jet.com for my mother for $290 after that 15% of first three orders code (max $20). Got the Axon 7 on Jet.com for $325 last year. You can save $10 just using their opt-out of free returns, etc. Some nice deals to be had if you can stack savings around $30 in total.
I've seen them for as low as $240 but never needed one. The front speakers are why I chose the A7 over the Honor 8. Hopefully the speaker isnt as bad as the 5X she is replacing. Almost went with the Moto G5.
It's that time again, so which color/ gb size are you guys getting? I got the black 128gb pre-order, says it will ship on Nov 14th.

Black 64GB - Nov 14 shipping date
Black 64 GB - Nov 14 Shipping as well.
64 panda, Dec 18th ship date. Hoping sooner..
128 panda, Nov 14, ordered it 2 days ago
do we know if the bootloader is locked from rogers? and is it just a matter of dev settings unlock?
It sucks the wait time for Panda version is so long, would have gone with that but waiting until December is so long

Hola
I ordered the 64GB all black version directly from Google. Did you folks buy it through a carrier or from the Google store?
November 14 shipping date for me. If you did go through the carrier what shipping dates did they state?
"So what you want me to do 'bout that?"

On the way is a 64GB Panda. Ordered within minutes of the announcement and got a 22nd of Nov delivery date. Anyone know whether best buy has them on display yet? They now do in the US.
I have my 128gb Black XL on order from Canadian Google Store but shipping Nov 15th...figured I'd order from US store ..save $200 after xchange rate and also shipped to my US postal box on Oct 24th...

Ordered a Black&White 128GB from the Google Store during the announcement - ships Nov 20th.
Then ordered a Black one and a Black&White 128GB one from Rogers - no idea when those will ship, but I am #4 on both lists. I'll pick up whichever comes first and cancel my other orders!
64GB Just Black during announcement. Ships Oct 23 to US postal box.
I pre-ordered Black 64gb from Rogers, Nov. 14 delivery?
Also to answer the question that was put out few post back,
Software/Firmware on Google Pixel phones in Canada will not
be touched / changed by any Carriers, if the bootloader is unlockable
from Google, that will remain the same delivered to customers.
Enjoy your Pixels!
Ordered 64G XL panda from Rogers on Oct 13th. No deliver date yet.
I honestly don't see the point of pre ordering anything from any service provider in Canada. You ll have it in hand faster if you go to the store and pick it up on release day .
Any of you guys worried about the burn in that's happening, that should take a while to occur. On my gs8+ which I had since May, doesn't have any signs of it.
