Bought one a couple weeks ago when it was 140. I challenge anyone to find a phone of this quality for this price brand new. One of the commenters said it was slow. I disagree, it's running Android 11, and doesn't seem to be any slower than my Galaxy S10. For the person wanting to get back into Android phones, this is the perfect opportunity to get a flagship from a couple generations ago for cheap. Bummer that there is no headphone jack, and the top and bottom bezel are larger than the newer model phones, but that leaves good amount of space for the stereo speakers on top and bottom, they are better than any other phone I've ever had. Again, I want to point out that this is running Android 11, and even though it is not being updated any further, it's amazing to get Android 11 for this price.
Youre gonna be downgrading if you're swapping to this

Has anybody tried the Pixel 2 XL on T Mobile's compatibility checker -

To see if it will work on T Mobile after they drop CDMA in 2022 and go to LTE / VoLTE only devices?
people said its missing band 41

Thanks for your reply.

I have seen people write that it is missing band 71. I ask about checking with the T Mobile IMEI checker as that will tell if it is compatible after the CDMA phase-out.

Anyone else get theirs yet? Mine is still a no show as well as the pixel 3, not like Woot unless they're shipping third party.

Check your warranty here: https://store.google.com/us/repair
first use or first bought? if its first use i will just hold off on it and wait for the next couple of yrs for "first use" it. they may have to give me a 7a pixel for free because they wont have any more 2xl for warranry replacement.

Is there an easy way to verify that the bootloader is unlockable? I got the Black but don't trust woot's claim since these were shipped 3rd party. TIA

Got mine today, 7/27. Ordered 7/21 with an est. arrival of 8/3. UPS tracking said from Promotex so it sounds like it was sent 3rd party.

Thanks for posting this. The one I got from B&H a few weeks ago says my warranty will last until July 12th 2022. I must have fired it up on the 12th but wish I would have waited because it's just a backup phone that I won't be using.

My understanding is that Just Black should be able to have the boot loader unlocked. In developer options it allows it to be toggled but when I try to send "fastboot flashing unlock" nothing happens it is like the computer does not understand the command and just shows the help output...

So I'm rocking the XS Max. Any reason to switch to this honestly? Been thinking about Android again (used to have Nexus devices) but haven't since the Nexus 5. Anyone switch recently and can give me a run down?
I'm in a similar situation. I am not going to switch to this. I might get it since the bootloader is unlocked to mess around with it. Flash a rom and stuff.

When I checked again, it became 1 year, seem Google changed something in their end.

Ordered the black and received today. First thing i did was upgrading to android 11 (from 8 to 10, and then 11). Then pretty much all apps stopped working and phone keeps crashing no matter which app I open up including play store. Had high hopes for this phone because all the reviews read here so this is quite disappointing. I am afraid this has to go back tomorrow.

Also the phone feels very hot. Even when left off aside for 15 minutes or so, the back of the phone still warm to the touch.
