First and foremost, I have to mention that even though this was refurbished, it feels like totally new. There are a few blips here and there such as the loading circle on YouTube videos being wack when on power saving mode, but this is the biggest complaint I can come up with. Wow, the pixel 2 is really something. I have been debating on what kind of phone to replace my Galaxy S4 (yes I know that’s super old but I got it two years ago and it was practically new and totally free). I am so glad I went with this phone. I find myself using the squeeze to activate the assistant all the time. I’m not much of a picture taker but the photos are amazing and make me want to finally use social media other than Facebook. I think most of all I enjoy the total integration with Google. It feels fast and simple, yet gives you the option to customize even the most insignificant of details, like what Google does when you tell it you just got home from work. 5 stars for sure, I absolutely adore this phone and highly suggest getting it!

The phone is nice and easy to use, even though I’ve never had an Android phone before (my last 2 phones have been iPhone 6s.) One thing I didn’t expect was that I can transfer my iphone’s information to this phone during setup. However, the adapter needed to import info directly between the phones was not included with this phone. It also didn’t come with a USB C splitter so I can charge and listen to music at the same time (I heard new phones do include this.) All it came with was the phone and a charger. I didn’t really think about it, and it’s not their fault. I just want to write this as a warning to other people buying a refurbished phone that you might want to order the necessary accessories at the time of purchase.I’ve only had the phone for a day, so I can’t comment on much else. I do wish it had a mute switch on the side like an iPhone.

Exactly as advertised. It’s obvious that it’s been refurbed. Great battery life still, and it’s in great shape.It’s totally my fault for not reading more, but honestly I didn’t know there were some Pixels with a locked bootloader…but apparently Verizon managed to talk Google into it. Jerks. Anyway I wish I could root, but honestly there’s so much you can do without root now that it’s not that big of a deal.However, great as this phone is, next time I think I’ll look at swappa first. I always use a case and screen protector, and probably wouldn’t even notice minor blemishes. I could’ve gotten the verizon model for $120, or the rootable version for $180.One thing: it does come with a generic charger and USB-C cable, which I don’t trust. I mean the charger is fine…but I’ve only ever used an Anker cable with it. I can’t say for sure, but I suspect maybe some of the reviewers who have had motherboard failures and such might be the victims of bad USB-C cables. I’ve read articles about how a bad USB-C cable can fry a device.I saw a spreadsheet a while back, put together by an engineer working for Google, reviewing reliable cables. I think he had a very expensive tablet or phone get fried by a generic, and that was his inspiration for doing the reviews. It’s been a while, but I remember it said that Anker, Amazon Basics, and the big name manufacturers like Apple, Google, Samsung, etc, were reliable and wouldn’t damage a phone. Personally I won’t trust anything else.

Overall very satisfied with this product. I purchased from Tech Exchangee and the phone looks brand new. No scratches/dings. Screen is perfect. Phone works great. Came with charger and a little screen film. My only complaint is the battery life. I think it works pretty well and from what I understand, the pixel 2 just doesn’t have a great battery life. I’d say my use is heavy-ish and by noon it’s almost dead. It does recharge really fast though. But if you’re looking for a long lasting phone, this is not it.Otherwise, great deal, great phone, great camera.

I wondered about getting a “renewed” phone, but glad I did. The Pixel 2 may not be produced anymore ( stopped in April 2019), but it is still the best smaller smartphone out there. Phones are getting too big. It looks new, was completely reset to factory condition. No problem sticking in a SIM and attaching it to my carrier. It ran the update to pie (Android 9) and did the latest security patches. They are working on an Android 10 beta for the Pixel 2 now so when released it will most likely be rolled out to this phone. Great flexibility with an unlocked phone. Has both SIM slot and eSIM for Google Fi. No headphone adapter, but it did come with a descent charger. Fantastic camera. I checked the battery condition with the AccuBattery app, mine has 92% of battery design capacity left – not bad. Charges quick. very happy with the purchase!

This is a great phone! My last phone was an LG at the same price point and this one is wayyy better in so many ways. The camera is amazing, functionality is fantastic, and it’s exactly as advertised. I wanted to give a review some time, so after a few months of use I can say it was an awesome purchase. Highly recommend if you’re in the market for an affordable but awesome phone.

Excellent Deal. Battery life is a little on the short side, but keep a charger near and it’s not too big a deal.I had none of the problems that I’ve seen in other reviews. Got it activated with Verizon with no problems. The only indicator that it is a refurb is a few scratches on the back and edges. No damage to the screen. Nothing a case doesn’t cover. Excellent value for the money.The pixel 2 is by far the nicest phone I’ve owned. Love the camera and the operating system is clean and fast. Only complaint about the phone design is that there is no option for an SD card as Google expects you to back everything up on Google drive.

This is an excellent budget phone option in 2020 if you can get it for a reasonable price. Just make sure you familiarize yourself with Google’s update scheduling before spending too much on a used Pixel. I bought mine “renewed” from an Amazon seller and the screen is immaculate with only minor wear to the area surrounding the USB C port. Also, the battery seems to have plenty of life left in it. Additionally, I really like how no network branding is displayed on the startup screens.

So I just got this today, I was expecting to get it next week but it arrived early so that’s good. I’d say this phone is awsome! I was surprised with the weight,its pretty light and getting a phone case soon. I love the resolution of this phone its great and the camera is beyond my expectations, its great, speakers of this phone has really great quality. The only problem i have is that they gave me an LG charger instead of the actual google pixel charger. and phone wasn’t charged up when i first opened it, but the good part was it charged halfway already for not even an hour. Down side for this phone, no headphone jack. But i didn’t mind that because I have wireless headphones and wireless ear buds, so if you don’t like not having a headphone jack, don’t get this phone then.

Received phone, no signs use, looks brand new. Works perfectly well. Inserted my TMobile micro SIM card, restarted my phone and it was good to go. I will say I do wish accessory description would be more detailed because based on the reviews different people have received fewer or more accessories. Mine came with a basic black wall charger, and a 3ft black type C charger. Dongle not included.
