      Is a great phone I bought one in 2019 September for $125 for the phone only Pristine condition but had to buy the accessory separately still use it has my daily driver But since I’m not really using it for most of my apps and I have an iPad and another phone though without service it’s still holds up really well

    6:50 4-5 hrs of SOT is not bad actually especially for its age. We've been spoiled humongous battery hardware and now we're at the age where 5hrs SOT is ridiculous. That kind of battery life for a 2017 smartphone with a smaller battery hardware is quite great for its age. Anyways, nice review. Subcribing now. 😊😁

    Today is April 2023. I have this device for 5 years, I bought it new in the box. This device is very cool. However it has a weak battery. Even a new battery barely lasts for one day. I replaced the battery after 3 years of use. Today he has a different battery. For two years of use its capacity is 89%. This is about 4 hours of screen time.

    I just got a 4a in japan and its in better condition than states, inside and out. I still feel like i should've got the 5g version for the same price, but i was in a time crunch. The speakers are a big improvement from my pixel 2, but I'll still use the old one for the camera.
    If you guys are ever in japan, consider getting a phone. The numbers look big but they're likely cheaper than your own country. 12,000¥ was just $80USD for me. Wasn't tax-free, but i don't mind

    Yo man, nice video. I’m using iPhone 6s since 2,5 years and it’s still good for me but it has one con. Horrbile battery life. I want to go back to android and Pixel 2 caught my eye, here in Poland it’s really hard to buy them but brand new 128gb is 280 USD. I know its and pretty expensive but is it worth to buy it? I don’t care about the outdated design. Battery should be okay as its brand new. I also know that it wont get new Android. On the used market its a bit cheaper but I don’t want to buy used phone with no warranty. Lol that comment is so long. Cheers!

    Watching on my Pixel 2 XL. I always like to have a backup phone in case my main goes down. 2 years ago I bought a Pixel 2 XL for $200 on FB marketplace. One of my best buys ever.
    My current daily driver is galaxy S20, but my charging port is in need of repair, as it won't hold the connector. So for the time being, I have my SIM in my Pixel 2XL.
    The only dramatic dropoff is the screen brightness. The screen on the Pixel 2XL can be really hard to read outdoors. S20 blows it away hands down there.
    But in virtually everything else, the dropoffs are hardly noticeable. And I actually prefer the fingerprint sensor on the Pixel 2XL as it is faster and more responsive. The in screen sensor on my 20 can be fickle and slow to respond.
