SleetAndSnow wrote: » oof. I was planning on getting my friend to ship it to Addresspal marked as a gift. I read online that phones etc arent subject to customs duty just VAT really. If it worked out it would only be 570 euro or so for the 3xl which is sweet, even with a 150 customs charge its cheaper then anywhere else

SleetAndSnow wrote: » BOGO 50% off black friday sale divided by 2 works out around that in Euro. And that sucks about the customs thing. trying to decide if it will still be cheaper then asking the guy in germany, and if the warranty is alright if its US to EU. I know EU to EU is alright.

My gripe only is that the screen in white background has this paper like texture. It's not smooth almos grainy looking and noticable in low brightness settings. Also my Pixel has CE markings at the back. Speaker is actually great. Louder than my S9! I'm returning my screen protector Olixar as well. Not great, removes easily and diminishes screen responsiveness when applied. I've no screen protector now. I have it bare. Any recommendations?

SleetAndSnow wrote: » Yeah I mean im used to notches, I have an iPhone x. Just read that this one is pretty large but i mean you get used to everything after a while. I can't deal with an LG screen again after my pixel 2xl disasters. Going to try and get that deal in germany i think.
