Any idea if any of the mobile carriers are going to sell this phone? Vodafone usually sells the pixelbut while the uk have it listed nothing from the irish branch.

Vodafone Ireland will be stocking it. It's suppose to be available from the 24th. I was told to keep an eye on their website

No fingerprint scanner is a big no from me, My Pixel 2 lives on!

Going from a Pixel 2 to a P4XL myself, have had the P2 for 2 years now and for once I can afford the upgrade, so I am, no notification of my despatch yet....

IE Google store. I wonder if they’re being dispatched early all over because they’re being pretty much slated?

My own fault for not acting quicker but I was strongly contemplating cancelling my order after watching the reviews today (had all but decided to do it), and lo and behold the damned thing dispatched about 5 minutes ago. Can it just go back unopened for a refund does anyone know? That’s about a week early.

Had all but decided to do it having watched the last one about 7pm but said I’d sleep on it, and lo and behold the damned thing dispatched about 5 minutes ago.

Also, curious to see how someone used to the normal size fares with the XL. Had the OG Pixel and currently have the Pixel 3. Always thought this size was more than enough for one handed use and portability but lately the bigger screen of a larger phone is appealing more for some reason.

My current phone is a P2, before I had a Nexus 5, was same size AFAIK

Interested to see myself, as I normally prefer smaller phone but was feeling flush on launch day and opted for it, should have it Monday or Tuesday all going well...

If you wanted to get a guideline, it's almost 1:1 with the 3aXL.

It'll be interesting to see what Vodafone will ask for the phone on a €60 a month plan!

I'd say a decent guide would be the price of the iPhone 11, and a few quid on top.

759 standard model or 899 for the XL

I went for the XL for once!

Thanks, I asked them on twitter and they were able to tell me it wasn't released yet. Must keep an eye out for the price

Pixel 4 looks like it's from 2010, WTF.
Huge double chin, no wide angle, and no 4k recording, plus crap storage. Total fail. And colours are rotten.
Looks like a cheap phone, not a flagship.

Would agree, also the battery for the 4 is smaller than the 3, what the hell.

Supposed to be available on Vodafone on the 24th. There might be a possibility to pre-order before then. I'm going to order the 4XL in white

Lack of fingerprint scanner and size of the battery putting me off what I was hoping was my next phone

If a 4a XL comes out with the same specs but lesser CPU and no SOLI, I'll be interested. I'm using a Pixel 2XL and right now, it does everything I need. I do miss the wireless charging that came with my old Mi Mix 2S but other than that, this phone was a no brainer (€269 off eBay, brand new).

It's okay Toby, you don't actually have to buy it if you do not want to, I bought it, because I wanted to...

I must go to the Apple thread when the next iPhone is announced and throw them some shade if I don't like their latest phone...

So you've preordered, or what?

I see the Pixel 3 is heavily discounted in the US now.

Still original price in the Irish store (which makes it more expensive than the bloody Pixel 4)

I have a Google home mini, I don't use it that much if I'm honest, is the same yoke just slightly better?

Better speaker I think. I can’t really see the point of the ones without the screen anyway.

Yes it’s a home we get. I’ll replace a mini in one of the rooms with it and give my parents the small one.
