FYI, The software support for this product has already ended. So there will be no future security patch available for this device.
I had similar situations on a 2XL bought off Woot a few weeks ago. After I upgraded the phone to 11, I ran the following steps in order to resolve the "Apps stopped working" errors:
1. clear all caches with the recovery menu;
2. Then, factory rest
3. set up the phone as "new" rather than recovery from any Google cloud backups.

All problems resolved, never had any "Apps stopped working" again.
So you still came into this thread to comment knowing it wasn't the model nor the size you were interested in.

the pixel 2XL came out October 19, 2017
Besides RAM though and updates/support, this is just as powerful as the pixel 5 (which was not a flagship, but 3 years newer).

i'm thinking of getting one for my son as a first phone. I know it's fast enough for what he'll use it for and cheap enough that if he breaks it, it won't be that bad to replace it. I would rather a Pixel 3xl at this price, but I'll take what I can get.

*I understand that it means the pixel 2 xl is not all that powerful compared to new phones, but I still have mine from 2017, though it's just my backup now from when I got my 5 late last year.

My mom is currently rocking this phone as a voice-only phone, and she couldn't be happier. In addition, I also have the bootloader-unlocked version for my custom ROM-testing, and it is also used as a glorious Zoom/Team webcam.

Not even close man. It's also older flagship, which makes it's specs similar to today's budget phones while having NFC & OLED screen. Just look at something like the N100, or Motorola G Play.

It at least has USB C, is it a great deal? No. Fair price for decent specs sure. I wouldn't buy it at this price, half this price absolutely if I needed a phone.

I still have my Galaxy S3, works too.

Community question.. in order to use my personal phone with work email and apps, they load software that "takes over" the security on my phone and promises no right to privacy. I'm considering a second device. If I don't really want to add another line to my plan could I use a phone like this on wifi only or would a small 7"or 8" tablet be better performancefor the money? Still prefer to be able to put it in my pocket. Thanks

Phones work better in my experience than tablets.. I also am in the same boat, my work also makes me install an app(intune company portal) that takes over everything as an admin app, so I am using a cricket iphone SE 2020 without a sim card and as wifi only for my work, leaving my personal phone alone(pixel 4 Jr 64gb)

Just got rid of my unopened 2020 Moto G Power for $150.00.Smilie I figure the Pixel 2XL blows it away in every single way besides battery life and they're both gonna end up on Android 11 anyway. It's gonna play backup to my year old Sammy S9+. Really glad I ordered one this morning.

I got a fully unlocked, open box 3XL for $117 from Woot. Technically, it was $123 but I had a $5 coupon.

That deal may not be around at this exact moment, but Woot has had several deals on Pixel phones in recent months so I wouldn't be surprised if it comes back.

Also, for those who don't mind used, just looking at sold ebay listings, there are several excellent condition 3XLs that have sold in the past few days for $110-$130 and some are still available at those prices, though most of them are 64gb.

Personally, I would much rather go for a used or open box 3XL at these prices but I also see the appeal for those who want to pay a little more for a brand new phone with 128gb of storage.

Buying a Used cell phone with a non removable battery is like lighting up a cigarette you already put out earlier. Woot doesn't replace the battery so yeah I'd much rather pay for new and know the battery is in 100% new and working condition.

Reading comments can sometimes lead to a better deal. You've been here long enough to know that.

Reading comments is not the same as commenting stupid irrelevant personal opinions.
You go ahead and play with your SMALL THINGS. I hope your girl never leaves you for the bigger better deal 🤣.

Google is not still manufacturing Pixel 2 series phones. New or used, the battery in a Pixel 2/XL is going to be ~5 years old since the Pixel was released in 2016, unless it was refurbished.
