Still love the pixel 2 XL and haven't had the urge to upgrade to the 5. Great camera, performance and battery still. The squeeze assistant is gone on the new phones right? What's everyones reasoning to jump from the 2XL? The biggest upgrade from what I hear is color/screen quality and the 5 has wireless charging.

on a side note, Verizon is giving $400 off on the pixel 5 for select trade ins which includes any pixel if you are staying on verizon and don't mind bill credits.

As others have said, it only gives the inflated trade-in value for the unlocked 4a 5G version.

I have fi - assuming there's no difference for me between the fi version and unlocked? Other than I just move my pixel 2 XL's sim card to the new phone and activate?

Confirmed this is working (screenshot attached), $240 for my Pixel 2 128GB. Make me wonder if this is an error since it only works on the 4a 5G (tried it on the 5 and it doesn't work). Guess we'll see when it come times to receive the credit? Either way, awesome find OP, thanks!

So the unlocked 4a 5g doesn't work on Verizon 5g?

I might be wrong but Google is trying to manipulate people here by incentivizing to upgrade to 4a 5G. And 4a 5g seems to be sale in various forms for the last two weeks. If you have used to P2XL build I dont think you would be happy about P4a 5g. You loose some great features in p2xl and you might want P5 later? But you get to have software drop from Google on p4a 5g which ended for p2xl last month.

I also have read bac reviews on p5 earpiece/front speaker as it is located under the screen and sounds hollow. For me I like the new p5 but stereo matters so maybe google needs to release p6 lol.
There is also rumors that the next Pixel would ship with Google chip (not titan but the SoC itself)
