You might be able to tell the screen resolution difference as well which, I don't know if it might be a compromise for you

I actually prefer a 5" phone and I can't differentiate between 1080p and 1440p lol that aside, I still feel that it's a big dowgrade to trade 6P 128GB 1440p 3400mAH with Pixel 32GB 1080p 2700mAH.

Pixel quite small, even noticeably smaller than 5x. Not sure if you can accept the smallness, lower capacity storage aside.

I can accept the smallness since I prefer 5" phone, but again if I want to trade, I might as well get 5.5" 128GB, the only let down is the price. Maybe I should just wait for the price to come down.

Was my second charge. Heavy Chrome usage, some app downloads, text, some YouTube. Haven't turn off any sync or push features I feel I don't need.. Mixed usage between Wi-Fi and HSPA cause my browsing doesn't require LTE bandwidth.

Depends on how you view this, from a market value standpoint perhaps its an alright deal at ~300.

But from a usability standpoint its essentially trading a 128gb 6 incher to 32gb 5 incher which matters more than $$ value imo. For me I would do with a 6p (personal screen size preference aside).

I moved from Nexus 6P to Pixel. I honestly can't tell the difference in the screen resolution..

Haha I came from the Nexus 5x. But I used both pixel and pixel xl solely for one week each before deciding on the xl :) could tell the difference in resolution between both devices

So anyone tinkered with system UI or developer options and came up with another/better way to use Pixel?

By any chance, any Google Pixel model will be sold in Singapore by local Telcos with contract, and brought in by an authorized local agent?

To my understanding it seems like a "no" like since the very first nexus phones right?

Those who managed to buy via Parallel Import / ownself import. Warranty issue how ah?

I don't see it happening with local telcos. Google could have sold the Pixels directly in Singapore, since they did so with the Nexus One which were also made by HTC. I think there's lesser chance they'll work with a 3rd party in Singapore.

As for warranty, it's still under warranty right, just need to send it back yourself.

This has been asked trillion times. Answer is no for now.

Last nexus Available locally is Nexus 6P, thanks to Convergent as their partnered with Huawei.

RMA yourself if there issue. If it's bought from shop, some offer certain months of warranty after that is NA. Maybe can liaise with the shop which country origin, then you can do your RMA procedures yourself.
