Jumped on the cheap Pixel XL bandwagon. It's lurvely.
Noticeable upgrade in zippiness from my Nexus 6P, and nicer to hold. Camera is indeed wonderful, and battery life seems good so far, which were my main concerns upgrading. Also the first time I've felt like I can stick with the default launcher, and not faff about with Nova.
Shame about the speakers though, and it does look a bit more "generic smartphone". As far as Oreo goes, I don't like this "let's put background shapes on all the icons" bollocks, and that the Do Not Disturb options are a bit more buried. And had to install an app to get rid of all the irritating "running in the background" notifications.
