I tried to buy the phone online but their website kept erroneously rejecting my card. So I thought fuck it, I'll try an actual store. I got a 30% bigger discount, didn't have to pay shipping or faff around with delivery and walked out with the phone in my hand. Jeesh, bricks and mortar. Who knew?
I did get a 5% student discount. But I've just worked it out and that discount is more than the full price of Smithys phone :$
Oohh, nice. What's the XL like? I love my Pixel 2. Is the screen as bad as some people say on the XL?
I gather they can be a bit of a mixed bag, especially the earlier models. Mine seems fine, the only thing I'd say is there's a noticeable blue shift if you look at it from an angle. But if I'm looking at the screen for more than a notification I tend to point it at my face (duh) so I don't really consider it a bad thing as such. Battery life is great. Aside from that it should be about the same as yours I think!
Apparently I am, and I even get to be one during work hours!
