Kinja'd!!!

Not the most extravagant purchase, but by my usual standards it certainly isn’t nothing. 2 months ago I would have never bought this. Now? “Hmm... I work hard and deserve nice things.” Spertkrass has tainted my entire frugal financial outlook...

Nice! With the gen2 coming soon, I’ve seen some crazy good deals on these lately. Enjoy it!

Let us know how it is. I’m interested in picking up a 128 gig model at some point.

Seriously, I really like my Pixel. It doesn’t have some of the things that made me love my first gen MotoX but it’s been rock solid.

If you could have waited, like, a week the new ones will be out, and there’s likely to be a price drop on that one....

The spertkrass is breaking you. Next we know, you’ll be updating your own chandeliers.

My wife loves her pixel. But upgrading from a galaxy S4 with a broken camera, ahe would have loved anything.

Since you got one of these, did you also get that sweet Project Fi service? It almost makes me want to ditch my iPhone to get that service.

That’s what I’m waiting for. Hopefully the old ones don’t go out of stock before I can scoop one up.

I loved my first gen Moto X, too! I was disappointed when mine started to die on me and no one made a current-gen equivalent. Then the Pixel came out two months after I bought my 6P. -_-

Is the Pixel a satisfactory replacement for the original Moto X?

Ha! I had a Pixel a long time ago (Pixel 2?), and was happy with it.

It may have been an upgrade offer, I manage my CoO’s Project Fi account that I got him for international travel, he is currently on a Nexus 5x.

It’s the closest thing I could find. The pure Android is the main reason. I don’t think I could deal with Samsung’s skin.

That’s exactly why I went with the 6P over Samsung’s option at the time, despite the fact that the 6P is way bigger than I wanted. I’m hoping I can pick up a discounted Pixel once the Pixel 2 drops and maybe pawn my 6P off on someone who appreciates phablets.
