@@rossniem I bought a used pixel 2 in 2018 and I switched to a used pixel 2 XL in 2021. I also bought one for my wife and one for my sister in 2019 and they still enjoy it. It's hard to justify upgrading to me since it still does everything I need just fine but I'm thinking of getting the 7 or 7a, maybe
best pictures I've ever taken on a phone! people would always comment on how good they were! I went Team iPhone (currently own 11 Pro Max) and still miss my Pixel 2 XL to this day
Great video my friend! I am using a PIxel 7 Pro right now and li,ke it. Even though Pixeltched to the Pixel Fold for one month I was looking forward to my 7 Pro the whole time. You just earned yourself another follower!
I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max and I still keep my Pixel 2 XL in my pocket solely as a camera. Google just did some crazy wizardry on their camera app on this phone that they never seemed to replicate on future Pixels.
I remember when this phone was new. I actually didn't like it at the time and went with a Motorola. When the Pixel A series phones came out, I got a pixel 3a and had a pixel ever since. I miss the fingerprint scanner on the back of the phone that also had built in gestures. I currently have the pixel 6a and will use it until I drop it and break the screen. Long live the pixel A series 😊
i always loved the design of this phone in photos, i was too young to by one myself when it came out, but i feel like it was a sweet spot of design and utility. even if the screen didn't get to the edges like with phones nowadays, those bezel had true stereo speakers, both pointed at you, which is something you can't do now that the screen covers most of the front of phones today. i bought myself a pixel 6a because i think it reflects the panda style of the 2xl with the camera bar, while giving me a smaller phone with some more updates to come, and I'm happy with it :)
Rear finger print scanner every day. Under screen are awful. My oneplus 6 came out of a drawer recently having not been used for about five years and the finger print still worked first time. I'm lucky if I get a week out of the under screen ones.
I hated my 2XL the weak screen, loose thumbprint scanner, first power button to actually fail since the S3 (for me) no wifi repeating, insane amounts of wierd limitations with different companies and banks, it felt slow after the first 4months of having it, the wifi and signal antenna was so weak (now this is gonna get nit picky) i swear the charge port clogged more than it does now on my S10 That being said, actually decent Batt, love the camera software and the useful ease of access (squeeze for assistant, slide down thumbprint for the hot bar, keeping your hand for constantly moving from the top to bottom) If you are not from London or Manchester i wouldn't recommend, outside of the bug cities this phone is close to useless, even on my home street sometimes couldn't make calls without going outside... and i aint in some rural farm land or anything either
@@rossniem probably the pixel 7a or redmi note 12s(bad price according to rumours tho) when it comes out. I will also be on the lookout for any decent budget phones. I wish there are new < 6.1 inch ones

Still using Pixel 2xl and recently updated to Android 13 with Pixel Experience, it´s just perfect

Still holds its own in photography. Especially in portrait and night sight mode.
The squeeze for assistance was a great feature
Yeah, I wish it would make a come back
I'm still using it with my Pixel 2 XL!
@@NouinouH how long have you had the 2 XL for?

Have it on my pixel 3, I wish you could change the action of the squeeze to make it do something else
I have had mine for 5 years now and it is still smooth as butter. I love it.
Can't go wrong with the Pixel 2 XL! Hopefully mondays video will show you how to make it even faster.
My favorite phone of all time still have mine and use it regularly
Still using my pixel 2xl. I bought october 2017. Almost 6y already and still works fine
6 years! You thinking of upgrading any time soon?

I went to the first galaxy fold I think after this phone and I wish I never left pixel.
Simply the best cameraphone

I still haven’t tried out anything on the new tensor chip, the pixel fold is cool but I’m keeping an eye out for a Pixel 6 pro

I need to take my 2 XL out see if I can get some great photos!
I tried replacing the battery at a repair shop but they can't liable if the screen breaks when getting to the battery.
I still use my pixel 2xl and just recently ordered a 7pro. I just love Google phones! Always a great deal with them!
Yeah and the 7 pro looks soooo good!
@@rossniem It does! I can't wait to get it in hand😁

My absolute favorite Pixel phone!
Great review! Keep up doing the reviews!
Cheers Vjekoslav, appreciate it!
Still use it till now 2023 ,great phone

Optical fingerprint sensors are so bright when you try unlocking your phone at night, you need to wear shades!
Best phone ever !!
Fully agree with this 👆

That being said, actually decent Batt, love the camera software and the useful ease of access (squeeze for assistant, slide down thumbprint for the hot bar, keeping your hand for constantly moving from the top to bottom)

Still using the 4a5g since launch, still works fine but the battery and it stutters on more occasions now
When you upgrade what do you think you will upgrade to?

Why pixel 2xl drain battery to much
If you have never had a battery replacement then the battery is probably on its last legs.
Using pixel 6a currently
I haven’t tried anything with the new tensor chip in yet. Hopefully will do soon 🤞
This video, make me wanna reach that Pixel 3xl in the bottom of my drawer 😮😉 👍
I’m looking for a boxed 3XL, they are so hard to find
This is the phone that turned me into a google fanboy lol!
Same here!
without updates great ?😒
Custom ROMS
@@BadrKhiyat ahh nice
The Ad is louder than your audio
Cheers mate, still learning this UA-cam stuff. I’ll try make it louder in the next one 👍
I'm watching this video with my pixel 6a 😅
Pixel crew 😎
It is interesting how much this phone stills working great until the date of this comment
Yeah it’s still going strong 💪
@@rossniem i have both 6 pro and 2 xl and really the difference is not that much. Interestingly, the screen of the 2 xl is more vibrant
USING PIXEL 3 AT THE MOMENT
That could be my next purchase and try get the pixel stand.

Me still use pixel 2xl
It's great, I love mine.
Tbh, I think the Google Pixel 4 Xl makes this phone obsolete and a terrible decision to buy this phone over that phone in 2023 and beyond....
Unless you get it for dirt cheap or already own it
Pixel 4 XL is so cheap, I might have to pick that one up next
