For Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL
All Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL phones sold in the US and Canada come with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty to cover device malfunctions that occur through no fault of the owner.
If your device malfunctions in the first 2 years after you bought it, contact Google.
If it malfunctions after the 2-year manufacturer's warranty but within 30 months of when you bought the device, visit mydeviceprotect.com or call Assurant at 877-406-4372.
If you don't know how long it's been since you bought your device, check your order history on the Google Store or the store where you bought your phone.
Not sure what woot sold will be, but I believe it should also be 2 years if it is new.
I'd personally probably go for the 2 XL with the bigger battery and full-year warranty OEM warranty (at least it claims) since I expect the SD 835 vs 845 CPU differences will not be that noticeable (maybe if you were gaming or something). I also don't think Google frequently updated their camera hardware, so unless they hold back software features from older models (#Apple) then the cameras should be comparable as well with Night Sight, etc. Besides the Pixel 3's refurb state, it's mostly personal preference IMHO.
Articles like this are also helpful, though some of that sentiment may be due to sales numbers more than the phone itself:

And yes, either model will support CDMA or GSM. I'm on Tello's GSM now. I wouldn't worry about compatibility with the Pixel. You'll need a new Tello (GSM/T-Mobile) sim card when you switch.

- Better screen & glass
- Better CPU/GPU
- Thinner and lighter
- Way more on board storage
- Better camera
- Unlimited photo support
- Good stock android support with latest Android OS
- USB-3.1 vs. 2.0
- better water resistance
The only negative is the battery life and no fast charging. Since this is a brand new phone I'll deal.

Things I miss already that the Pixel 2 XL has:
Amoled screen
Unlimited google photo backup
Customizable Home Screen
Battery percentage in notification bar
Immediate unlock with fp reader
Double click home button to quick open camera
Hold power button for Google home quick settings
Things I'm liking:
iPhone feels faster, slightly, but maybe it's the newness
Mute switch
Build quality
Integration with AirPod pros
Still getting used to it. Kinda a pain to set it all up, but also like tinkering. If you get this one, you could probably add lineage or other rom to get the newer features. I assume there would be equivalent complaints you'd have depending how far in the ecosystem you are of either.

Order was on 7/20 (Ordered right before midnight on 7/19 & order confirmation came 7/20).
UPS Out for delivery today 7/24 by 7PM.
Their estimate was for 7/28 - 8/1 so I was also worried they would take the "10 business days" but I guess at least in my case they are underpromising / overdelivering.
edit: my phone arrived 30 seconds after i hit the post button
Best of luck if you ordered one.
