Car Warehouse UK is selling it on launch day, it makes sense to believe that others will follow suit (info points to at&t and Verizon for sure but nothing on Sprint and T-Mobile yet)

It would be really smart of HTC to have a worldwide launch on the 25th and get a 2 week head start on sales before the S5 attracts the sheeple.

Take this with a grain of salt...
Called a local T-Mobile store and they said they'll have plenty of stock on Tuesday! So, all these rumors of availability on launch day may be very true.

My buddy works for Verizon corporate here in Southern California. It will be available in stores here March 25th, Tuesday. Can't speak for the rest of ya but i'm sure this gives you a clear picture, no BS here. Personally i'm still gonna wait out a few weeks to see the online reviews and what not. Don't get me wrong, i'm buyin this mofo. Just saying, nice to see all the reviews, give the case companies time to actually have cases in stock to order and ship, etc. etc. Sometimes first product runs have issues as we all know so just going to wait a few to see how it goes then diving on in! Can't wait, specs that are confirmed are enough for me to buy hands down!

Ask them about the S5. I think people forget that Samsung's carrier is T-Mobile literally. Reason why T-Mobile were one of the last to get the M7, pushin those Samsung devices hard as their number one baby! I think if T-Moblie didn't have Samsung the way they do they would be out of business by now or a pre paid Virgin mobile type of company. How Sprint is still in business is beyond me.

Guess well all see tomorrow but quoting your link, " That is – of course – if this information turns out to be true." If so I doubt the S5 will make much of a splash when people see both phones in store as this will be available first again if true.

Its more than likely true. Online exclusive, however. Which is going to piss off jump customers, like myself.

[Q] Might be getting a little obsessive...

This is my first android phone on verizon before this i had the iPhone 5 for 2 years and before that i was on sprint with the evo 3d which was rooted... i didn't know it was a mission to get verizon phones rooted. Now im checking the forums everyday like 3 or 4 times a day to see if anything new has come up for root. Im getting desperate lol. People that have had previous note devices on verizon, did it usually take this long?

Lol you sound just like me! Ive looked everywhere. And now just sticking to xda hopen for some good news! I had a s2 rooted then went to ip4 to ip5s both jb. now im back to android with n4. N4 is a bad ass just waiting for this root to make it even meaner! I feel your pain bud!

Don't count on this phone being rooted on Verizon. If it's that important, you may need to switch phones/carriers. It's unfortunate.

It'll be rooted, just have patience. People are SMART around here, and they'll figure it out. It's still a fantastic phone as it is.

I don't doubt that the N4 will eventually have root.
I think the issues as stated is that CF needs an unlocked bootloader, which means either we get an unlocked bootloader (which I really doubt) or someone finds an alternative method. So yeah, nobody can predict the future, but this isn't like other phones like say on Tmob. There are more obstacles people with AT&T/VZW need to overcome. Saying otherwise at this point is very misleading to potential buyers and retail owners.

How patient are you? it might get root within a year maybe. want recovery and root buy a developer edition

I think the note 3 just got root this past summer, and it was released Sept 2013, so that would be 8-10 months after release.

From the what I recall, the Note 3 had root last year sometime. I remember this cause I was using one along with safestrap so that I could flash ROMS.

If only it were that easy. Unfortunately Samsung's DE program is a nightmare and they can't seem to keep them in stock. I would happily sell my phone today for $550 and order a DE for $700, but its not even an option.

Well if we've learned anything about Samsung this year its that they don't know how to properly plan their phone supplies. At this point I'll just wait for an M9 instead of dealing with Samsung's DE circus.

whys that?

[Q] You guys have me second guessing..

So I'm getting my G4 today after work from Sprint. Driving about 2 cities just to cop it. But then I came to realize that there is no root yet. But the only reason I'm rushing to get this phone is because of the promo bundle. Otherwise I would have just stuck with my G3 until root was here and a working twrp. By the way, nobody speaking on a twrp without unlocking the bootloader.. If I unlock it, it voids warranty. But what If I were to unlock it and have insurance on Sprint? Would they know? Or should I just throw the phone when it bricks and just go to Sprint for a replacement lmao & is there any word on tethering? The g3 didn't tether without root. Had to use WIFI Tether Router apk. I'm wondering if I should stick to paying just 90 a month for my unrooted G4 with my unlimited everything plan or just miss the promo and stick with the G3.. Also, I see all of these "lag" and "overheating" problems from everybody with the T-Mo variant. I'm kind of second guessing those problems due to the fact that you guys were the same ones that had to do a few first day returns due to problems. Any chance that Sprint would have the same exact problems or is it just a universal thing with the phones? Because I know carriers alter the software a bit. Only reason I really use root is for lucky patcher and tethering. Or am I just asking noob questions? lol

I picked it up and as a power user, I feel clipped without root. It is a great device though. No complaints about lag or over heat. If root is a must for you, buy to get all the promos and switch back to g3 till root is established. Im gonna try to stick it out with no root. Its just that cool in the hand...

I've had the Incredible 1 & 2, Rezound, DNA, Galaxy Nexus, G2, G3 and now this phone. Its the best out of the bunch (except for the stock Nexus software and development). I dont have any of the problems other people have.

Yeah the problems they have seem a bit farfetched

Are you buying from a Sprint store? Are you just after the LG promo? It runs until June 30 i believe so you have time to wait on root. The best buy promo runs until July 4 if you are considering buying there, so plenty of time as well.
Personally the phone is good enough to have on hand and wait on root while enjoying the phone.

Any idea when mobile reviewers are going to get their test units?

I'm still sort of on the fence about the Pixel XL. Right now it's between this phone and the V20. I would really like to see a few in-depth reviews before I pull the trigger on either. Does anyone know about how soon Google sends out the review units to the editors/reviewers?

I would say sometime next week since the Official release date is Oct. 20th

So when do you think they will get it? Or do you think review units have already been sent out?

Went to best buy today and 1of the Google employees had a pixel xl. He had just got it yesterday. He let me hold it and look at it. It was nice I must admit. He said they got them to show customers.

Looks like DXO Mark got theirs

Im pretty sure they will get reviews out around the 17th thats 3 days before orders ship

Review units usually go out well before release so reviews(which normally are embargoed can go up on release day

I am sure they already got the phone. Don't you see almost every review says "I have been using this phone for about a couple of weeks " blah blah.

Just got a chance to listen to Monday's This Week In Tech podcast and one of the guys is a reviewer and said they were told they'll get their Pixel review kits on the 18th.

the verge already did yesterday

Anyone that received their phone returning it?

Did you receive your XL phone and now plan to return it after playing around with it? If so, for what reason (s)?

nope, fantastic device.

I think I will be. Forcing myself to use it until tomorrow or a few more days...then decide between keeping this or my V30. Heavily leaning toward V30 right now.

I'm not sure yet, will use for a week and then decide. I really like the phone, but get the off axis blue screen quite a bit.
I'm not sure if mine is worse than normal or similar to other units.

I am giving myself until Friday. If Google doesn't release an update to fix these software glitches, it is going back.

everyone. you got 15 days to return it. if it passed 15 days it can't be refunded. just a reminder. and applicable only on google store purchases... i know most of you already know it but just wanna remind everyone again for that... thank you so much...

I will be returning my verizon variant pixel 2 xl due to the bootloader being locked. I may buy it from google store after doing more review reading. Overall it seems like a great phone for using it a few days.

Completely agree

I'm also in the "nope, not returning it" group. I really like my 2 XL and my screen is just fine for my eyes.

I impulse purchased the device at Verizon the other night. I have the Note8 but wanted the Pixel2 as a replacement for my Nexus 6P whuch gets used for kernel hacking & ROM development. Having learned that the Verizon won't be unlocking the bootloader was a deal breaker for me. Mine is going back.
After seeing the screen and playing with the device I'm not interested in ordering the unlocked sku directly from Google. I'm unsure what to buy for a new dev device at this point.
--ok

It's not what I hoped it would be, bought Verizon one hoping like last year I could unlock bootloader. Gonna return and go with one plus 5t most likely. Gonna test drive v30 also.

People returning the Verizon variant phone because they couldn't unlock the bootloader!? Really? At this point, that is old news about Verizon phones. If that's what you care about, that is a scenario in which you wait to see if anyone figures out unlocking the bootloader before you buy. Secondly, I bought the unlocked variant from Google knowing full well that it'll be a while probably before we get things like root and twrp. Not trying to bash on anyone, but c'mon. Y'all should know better.

Does the 5t even work on Verizon?

It's a phenomenally fluid device and killer battery life, but I really can't get used the display which is so essential, so returning it.
