The Pixel 2 64 GB (sold and shipped by Amazon) replaces my Windows Phone Lumia 950 XL.
It has a nano and an eSIM. It works for me with Google Project Fi (via eSIM).
No reboots due to errors yet. It’s pronounced fast. No slowdown so far.
Display in the sun is easy to read.
Find the smaller format very handy. Even with my old eyes I can handle the font size well. Can be adjusted via Oreo.
Compared to the Lumia, it is certainly not so robust against falls. Hopefully the manufacturers will soon give up this bad habit of offering fragile phones instead of those with a robust plastic housing because of their allegedly more beautiful design. Why a nice design when you need a protective cover?!
> Too bad that the pixel does not support wireless charging.
