I really enjoy this phone overall. Great camera, the Google services are amazing, I love the look and feel of the phone and the gestures and how customizable the colors are. However, I have noticed a few problems. The biggest issue is service. I understand that Google Fi uses Tmobile towers and that's where I switched from. So, I don't understand how sometimes when I'm driving my maps or YT Music will lose service. That didn't happen before. Luckily I have wifi at work too because I don't get much service if any at work. Sometimes my phone screen also locks up/freezes. I have to do a restart to fix the issue. I do hope that Google considers adding more towers or improving service on Cape Cod in MA.
Overall I love this phone much more than I liked my iPhone. There are two complaints; (1) battery life is horrible unless you use the Battery Saving feature. (2) There is no forward gesture in apps like Chrome...coming from and iPhone that has been very irritating.But, as I said, I love the phone...the gestures, the screen, the camera, etc.Overall happy I made the switch.
I have no idea how a phone can be released that can't even do basic texting. I loved my pixel 3. Regret the upgrade to 6.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It's pretty big. I miss the 5's size. The optical camera zoom is nice. I wish there was a way to make wide angle the default when you open the camera app.The official case that I got doesn't feel worth the money and collects dust underneath, which is visible.
