Also anyone know how long this $50 discount on the 5a is going to be offered?

EDIT: I found it good through Dec 26th.

If you are going to make a comment like that at least state why your believe that to be the case.

Apple is as bad - and apparently signed a secret deal with the Chinese government.

Samsung disables eSIM functionality on their flagship models (and claims it's because the carriers won't allow it - although Google and Apple seem to be able to persuade the carriers).

Motorola's only eSIM offering is the razr - and it's single sim to boot.

So who should I buy from, if I'm looking for 5G / dual sim with eSim?

Last time Google store cancelled my order without explaining what exactly was wrong. Hope it went through this time.

This definitely seems like a good deal. The main reason I'm looking for a Pixel is to run Graphene, Calyx or Lineage (no gapps). Does anyone know if there is a "storage case" with a built in sdcard ? I know this was available for iphones... and there's i-blades but they're really bulky. My OnePlus 6 has 128G but I'm always pushing 95%.

Are these officially supported by Visible?
5g works on this phone with visible. I had used it.

Not sure about official support though.

Quote from Phenomesaurus :
How would you describe and compare them? I've currently got a 4a.
I needed a phone for work since my Galaxy S5 was no longer cutting it and bought the 4a a week before they announced their BF ad. Swapped it out after reserving a 5a in-store. First impressions, the 5a is wider, has a better aspect ratio for most content and a much better battery life. Performance seems about the same but can't say for sure since I didn't run it through Geekbench or anything. If you're within the return window which I believe was extended for purchases after October then definitely pick up the 5a for the difference.

$320 for my XR is an easy decision for me. XR was my first iPhone and I couldn't wait to get back to Android. 5a has just about everything I want (good camera, good amount of storage, headphone jack, plastic back, fingerprint reader on back).

Picked one up on black friday sale. So far it's a solid phone, snappy, amazing display and camera with 128 GB storage and factory unlocked.

This is my first pixel phone and loving it so far. You can't go wrong with this.

The order checkout page shows 3 months Fi unlimited plus free trial by purchasing this phone. Is there any catch?

Do you check the box "If my phone's condition is different than above, accept its new value."? My XR is like new condition, and $320 if definitely great value for it. Don't want Google to lower its value. Is $320 Google credit or credit to my credit card? Thanks!

The Nexus 5 was a great phone (build quality was stellar), but the newer Pixel's are a definite step up with performance and certainly the camera.

Yes but for their Era they are not. I returned p6. Heavy brick with crap finger print, crap hepatic motor. Samsung and Apple dance circles around p6..
