Mine is Nov 23-25 would have been 18-21 with expedited like yours. Mine is white 128 gb so probably not coming for a while being the 128gb
Same here. Originally had a Nov 23-25 delivery.
My XL silver 32gb came today!
Ordered Oct 7 FWIW
32gb version are heavily available. I went to Verizon today and they have a boat load.
Just got an email from Google and damn... 830.00 plus tax for a silver 32 gig XL. I can't believe I hit the purchase button,.
Guys is it worth it? Was about to buy 6P when I receive the email from Google.
128gb silver ordered on 10/14. Still in preorder status.
Now that the phone is out, is it really preorder? Lol

Ordered a 32gb XL on the 10th and still stuck on Preorder with Nov 23-25 delivery. Hopefully it won't take that long.
The Verizon authorized reseller store up the street has the 128 XL Black but I'm on T-Mobile. Is there too much risk buying the one at Verizon? Anyone confirm bootloader info and what not? How do I see if it has all the same radios as the Google version.
When did you put the preorder OP?
Sorry October 9th .

Anyone with Google version unlocked on order seen any movement ? Strongly think you guys are getting your phones earlier than projecting dates .

Is there a forum for

Pixel XL 2 yet?
Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk
No, not yet....
New forums don't usually get added until the device has at least been officially announced.
I thought it was officially announced?

Moving a Pixel XL from TMobile to Verizon?

I just upgraded my TMobile line to a 2 XL, and I want to use my old XL for my Verizon line. In the old 6P days, I would have to change the image due to them being carrier specific. Is that true for the Pixel XLs? It appears that Verizon is using OPR3.170623.013 now, and there is no specific Verizon image. Can someone just confirm that I should be able to reset the phone, pop the Verizon SIM in, and be off to the races? Thanks!
My understanding is just pop in the sim and you are good to go. It may tell you there is an update available and it may wait until the December update is ready. The Verizon specific firmware really just deals with some reception/radio type stuff from what I have read. When I got my Pixel XL I just dumped the sim in it from my old phone and it took care of itself, I have a Google Store version with a Verizon SIM.

With the 6p, I had horrid coverage problems until I put the Vz specific OS on it...
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
I can't speak to that, I would just pop the sim in and see what happens, it will take a Verizon firmware, I just don't know when. When you put the sim in give it a few minutes to see if it does it on its own, if not check for updates in settings and see if that pulls it in. No harm in just giving it a shot.

Is reception an issue, or did it take the Verizon update?

Try uninstalling updates to the phone app. I had issues with the screen not waking & that worked for me
I got it the 8th I believe. On verizon with an unlocked one from google.
Got it as soon as I turned on my phone before unlocking. January 5th I think. No sim was installed yet.

I too am on at&t on a Google bought /unlocked p2 XL. And no OTA for me either. But............. I've enrolled my pixel in the android beta program as soon I got it. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.
On TMO nothing yet here -

The phone is still flagship for another 2 years i think or 1 year left, they will keep dropping and raising the price to make as much money as possible
It's about 580usd in Sweden
