Google Pixel (Verizon and GSM)(S&D)

Lengthy Review but worth a read.First pro: and foremost this phone is pretty awesome all around! First con: the device heats up pretty quick when you play heavy games however seems to not get so hot watching Netflix or hulu, tge temperature is about averafe then. Idk uf the heating up from a few minutes of game play is near the alarming temperature or not yet. Gonna do research and compare to my old note device.Seller: I bought this phone "used like new" and the package came as if it were sent from Google with the original box and all the necessary items finely packed as if the phone wasnt used. So kudos to the seller for not lying and semding a phone that was beat up. The charging cable was said to be filed down by the seller to fit with bulky cases but thats def no deal breaker at all because I'm sure ill buy a new cable at some point anyways. The phone was unscratched or damaged and had already been factory reset.Setup:Phone setup was the easiest setup I've ever seen on a mobile device personally. There wasnt a self service or cgecking phone status app running in the background knocking out service that I'd have to force close like with my sprint galaxy note 5. There also wasn't an issue popping in a sim card. Just popped​ in the sim card restarted the device and it connected without an issue or extra ingenuity involved. This is how a phone should be!On screen:Being that the phone was manufactured by HTC the srceen looks very much like an htc screen and doesnt get as bright as my note5.Battery: Comparing to my Galaxy note 5 again​, the battery is awesome, much better than my larger battery in my note5 and the software is darn good about shutting down apps that would normally be running in the background unnecessarily. This battery lasts​ me all day and then some. I used to constantly keep power save on 24hrs in attempt to get a decent battery life with my note 5 and any other phone but with the Pixel i actually dont ever feel lile i need it. My battery life is never so horrible that I need to look for ways to save power. I normally get 12hrs out of my battery before really needing a charge. & I purposely try to run out the battery.Camera:The camera is great! Needs a few tweeks to the software but nothing major. I could always download an extra camera apk but i wouldn't get the same great photos. The software does wonders for the pixels camera especially with video recording. Just would like a few things changed like locking in the brightness setting flash and HDR settings small things like that. Again nothing major.Speaker & Pure Android Fingerprint scanner:Plain and simple: the speaker is clear but leaves you looking for more from it but there's always headphones galore & blutooth speakers to make a better experienc.. The pure android experience is a pretty nice feature within itself without the bloatware and sense overlays from manufacturers. Being the first to get updates is cool too. I also noticed i see a lot more apps in the play store that allow me to downlaod the beta versions before they are officially released so that's cool. The fingerprint scanner is pretty cool beijg on the back. I prefer it rather than the one on the note5.Coverage:Comparing to my note5 again haha: Coverage is waaaay better than my note5. Everything from WiFi range & connection strength of that to the strength of the 2g, 3g, & LTE on my pixel is great. I also get way vetter voice coverage so Im usually at full service amd i can still pickup something in bad areas. The pixel also functions on a much wider ramge of frequencies (hence the better signals / connection strength) so I would say this is a true global phone compared to Samsung devices. I used to love my Galaxy but lately its been tough amd has a bunch of small things I'd like to change which I could by rooting if I wanted. so here I am with my Pixel. Some would say it's better to wait for the next one but depending on your situation and needs this may be the perfect fit for you.All in all:I'm happy with my purchase and look forward to future google phones and I feel like i should have been using them since the Nexus days now haha. I think I may do a review on youtube of this phone some day.
