Google offers 128GB of storage for the Pixel 9 Pro and XL, but that's nowhere near enough for a flagship built to last seven years.

    My spare is still my 3XL. It would be rough. You could always pick up an a series if you need a phone quickly

      Yeah my mom convinced me to trade-in my 8 and just get the Pro model.

      I have/had a 6, but the battery became extra spicy and I haven’t gotten around to getting a replacement.

      My Pixel 2 is still happily kicking though, no swelling and still turns on. Though the battery doesn’t last long at all.

      They quoted like $450-$490 for my Pixel 8, but I imagine it’s going to be even less as the screen is still flashing green. Even though they’re doing warranty replacements on the P8 because of that, I’m betting they’re going to use it as an excuse to slash the value off the trade-in.
