Was it just the White 128GB 3XL that was delayed or also the Not Pink too? If latter, then Singtel really screwed up big time for their preorder customers.
I think the white 128 was delayed. During pre-order, the 128 pink wasn't even available to select at least for me.

Hi..i tried playing a video using pixel 3 xl demo set and increase the volume to max..the speaker somehow make the phone vibrate quite badly, but not so on pixel 3.
Did anyone of you experience the same thing on ur brand new phone? Thinking of getting the xl, so hoping it's only the issue with demo set.

You think we will finally see an update on the singtel site today? :( I can't sign on at the store because only online CIS can get discount.

Crap... mine still processing. Ordered on 10/10 as well.

Same lor. The delivery date is dated tomorrow. Until now no updates no news. Money already take first. I don't care if Google delays it, Singtel ought to chase Google for it, not us.

Edit: Wa I just posted and got an email from Singtel. Finally arrived and can collect by tml. Phew.

If you spend time watching reviews and also reading the thread you would have known this is a widespread issue.

You need to use services like comgateway. They provide US address for you to ship the items to the warehouse then subsequently they ship over to you.
Same lor. The delivery date is dated tomorrow. Until now no updates no news. Money already take first. I don't care if Google delays it, Singtel ought to chase Google for it, not us.

Congrats bro. Waiting to get an email from them too. What's your colour and storage capacity?

I think this is exaggerated by some reviews online. It's only some vibration at max volume on my pixel 3. And I doubt anyone listens to audio at max volume. It's really quite loud!

Quite jia lat the vibration, maybe the p3 not so bad. The 3xl one even 50% volume also vibrate gao lat.

After trying the pixel 3 for a week and the pixel 3 XL the week. Here are some of my thoughts

Pixel 3 XL
Pros : screen size and resolution / battery life ( getting approximately 5-6 SOT, usage include surfing the web, 1 hour of Spotify , location service turned on, ambient display on, background services running)

Cons: definitely the speaker, I did not realised how bad it was until I tried the pixel 3 so unless u put them side by side, u do grow accustomed to it.

Pixel 3
Pros: form factor , better speakers

Cons: poor battery life ( with the same usage, i am getting around 3-3.5hrs SOT) but the fast charger really helps , gotta play the lottery game of getting a good unit ( went through 4th set).

Overall, if form factor is really a huge issue for you, just go ahead with the XL version because you are better off spending your time doing other things than playing the lottery game which is both time consuming and energy/mentally sapping lol
