To be fair Google kept sending me free ones however I couldn't do them days without music while at work it invited unwanted conversations

imo, this isnt worth the upgrade
and the reasons they say you should, to me, have very little to with the actual functionality of the phone but mainly cosmetic shit
Pixel 4 XL vs. Pixel 2 XL: Should you upgrade?

I disagree, not so much with your assessment that it's not worth the upgrade. That more or less depends on your personal needs, thought I'm more with you on that when you factor in the price. However, none of the upgrades are cosmetic. Being able to control the phone through gestures, the second camera and what it brings, and the faster chipset are all functional in nature. Now whether or not they justify the cost is a different matter. For me, it might be worth it, but I might wait til Black Friday or Christmas time to see if it goes on sale.
ahhh ok
see me, i just use it for the car dash player that still has the aux opening
i bought like 2 pair of type c headphones to use on the go plus some wireless joints for the gym
preciate the rebuttal
i can respect this pov
i noticed they are still using the same 12mp camera from the 2 and 3 while adding another lens. Interesting choice, but imo, if you're going to be touting some of these features as the next great thing, then they should probably work right out of the box.
Even though they are going to stop supporting the 2 with security patches by the end of 2020, im hopeful to keep this phone and upgrade when the 5 comes out and just go to xda hoping someone can port over the security shit to the 2 so i can have a spare phone if needed.
I actually might finally give 1+ a shot for the next phone, but we'll see

I feel you, but Google is largely a software oriented company, so that's where most of there innovations come from. The Pixel 3 was widely touted as having the best camera on a smartphone before the iPhone 11. It didn't have the best tech. It just had beastly software behind it. I think the same is the case here.

I think I'm going to go ahead and upgrade to the 4 model. It turns out that they have a deal where you get $450 off in credits spread out across your monthly payments for 24 months. Since I'm upgrading to an unlimited plan and actually saving some money doing that, it kinda works out that I'll basically get the phone for free. No reason not to upgrade under those circumstances and the 4, while not a huge leap from the 3 is better than my U11.

For all the all the debate about Android phones vs iPhones, there's really no comparison when it comes to usage of the OS.

Also..........those other OS's is no longer around or have been iterated into Android

The context was there. Again, you're talking phone vs phone. The video is about OS adoption. Yes, iOS is only on Apple devices whereas Android is on a multitude of devices, but that doesn't really matter that much. If people really wanted to use iOS, they would get an Apple device. At one point, you could have argued that Apple devices were simply too expensive for the masses to get, but now they have a bunch of legacy devices you can purchase for relatively cheap and they have lower range options too. I'm not saying iOS is doing bad mind you. I'm just saying that when it comes to mobile OS, iOS isn't even close to as widely used as Android and that video shows that in dramatic fashion.
Lol the average consumers aren't breaking down software and specs fam. It's more about brands.

Note 10 owners after having your phones how do you like them? Was the hype real

I think it goes both ways actually. Some people are brand loyal and some are OS loyal. There are things Android does that iOS can't like allowing for launchers.
I'm still blown that the note cant unfold audio files like the iPhone could, but aside from that I dont have any complaints.
I only used the S pen from time to time up until a couple weeks ago, now I use it 90% of the time. So I already know its gonna be tough to go back to a phone with no S pen.
This is easily the best phone in the game.
