I'm currently using Vibe X3, my battery is acting weird lately and the phone is so lag (poor RAM management), I'm not gonna fork out more money for Lenovo!! thinking about getting a new phone with dual front speakers...

Wait for Pixel 4 or get a Pixel 2 XL (currently cheapest brand new under RM 2k)? I'm hesitate between this 2 options... All the online "rumors" or pattern "leaks" got me excited about the Pixel 4, but last year Google prove us wrong with their "notch city" design... I really hope this year HTC can do a better better job at designing the Pixel 4...

I've been using my X3 for 3 years now, if I fork out 2k for Pixel 2 XL now, I'm not gonna upgrade for Pixel 4. Or I can use this X3 until October and upgrade to Pixel 4 (as long as there is a notch-less version and below RM 4K).

How many years Google support their devices in term of software upgrade or fix?

dont wait. based on my experience, waiting always doesnt worth it. everytime a hype or leak come out, when it do come out i always dissapointed.

based on my readings, pixel 2xl is good enough. i assume u want pixel because of the camera? dxomark still put pixel 2 in a respectable ranking. i like pixel phones because it always has nice bokeh.

btw where u find this pixel phone? got shop selling them? i always wonder how the aftersales service. which shop can repair them?

I always wanted to try Pixel, just don't know which one should I start first... Stock android, camera and dual front speakers are selling point for me...
I found 2 sellers on lazada, and another one is a fellow forumer... Both are import set, but forumer one is cheaper, and I don't know aftersale service...
