The Pixel 3 thread, featuring 'The Notch'

OldMrBrennan83

Jesus, that really is big.

Not far away from launch now anyway but it's pretty much out there already. The 4GB RAM and single camera have left lots of people underwhelmed but I'll trust them, for now, anyway.

Here is the only place you've heard about it being an issue? Go spend a little time looking at any tech reviewers on YouTube. Guarantee every single one of them will mention it.

I'm clad you deciphered what that was about because I hadn't enough coffee to work it out.

Indeed, I'd say you'd be hard pushed to find anywhere not mentioning the notch.

Well the 3 doesn't have a notch. Just the 3xl

That's true too. I don't mind it on the XL anyway, I currently have a 15mm x 67mm notch on my Pixel 2 so it'd be way smaller anyway :pac:

Battery seems really small for a top phone, had bigger batteries in 2012.

OldMrBrennan83

I'd like to see bigger too but Jelly Bean needed bigger batteries.

Maybe now is the time to go buy a Pixel 2

Doesn't look like there's been any drop in price if you are trying to get one from the Google store. I'm delighted with the timing of my purchase in May. 128GB for the price of 64GB when the price was even lower than it is now.

Where's the best place to buy the pixel 2 XL then lads?

Where?

The Pixel 3 prices are insane. The Shark has been jumped(though i said that when the high end price hit 500)
I don't give a crap about what the spec's say, high end device from today is not worth double €€ of the high end device of a couple of years ago. The tech has flatlined. People are paying 'stupid tax' at this stage.

Carphonewearhouse up north have them heavily discounted. Or try find a good one on donedeal\adverts.

Sorry missed this. I got one off Donedeal. Always a risk I know.

OldMrBrennan83

Carphone Warehouse would at least guarantee there isn't a brick in the box instead of a phone.

Ah, I thought eglobal or somewhere like that. Adverts can be a minefield but a bit 'safer' than donedeal, for phones anyway

A quick look on wondamobile and they have the XL at £569

The high horse brigade

I'm interested in the XL, is there dual SIM? This is my main requirement

Edit, I see it hasn't. Damn

Can you buy this in newry in store?

https://www.carphonewarehouse.com/google/pixel-3-xl.html#!colour=black&capacity=128GB&dealType=sf

Looks like about 100 euro saving on Irish store pricing

Yeah I bought my pixel 2 in a cpw up north.

No sign of Layer but mnml have cases up already for $15 so just ordered one. 872MNML still works too as a discount code.

I see they have Note 9 cases now. Do they do anything in the case of a drop, or you might as well just go naked?

Stopping scratches on the back is about their limit I'd say. Dropping one with one on would definitely be like dropping it with nothing.

Just thinking of the same Newry trip that I did with the pixel1, and with Brexit looming may be even more favourable

OldMrBrennan83

By all accounts the screen is much better too (not sure what this website is but apparently it's well regarded).

Anybody know the networks the Pixel 3 will be available on? Also, are those USB-C headphones gonna be sold separately? (Then again, it happened with the Apple earbuds...)

Apple earbuds come in the box and always have.

Apparently the headphones are in the box with all models.

Vodafone are doing it here (so far anyway). One bought from Google will be unlocked to any network.

Which one ye ordering?

Looks like the notch can be turned off. Looks just like a pixel 2. https://t.co/avkUf8G2CW
