[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sshariff:
Ordered on Google store UK initially with a delivery date of 27th Oct in sage. Then cancelled today and ordered via carphone warehouse in same Sage so that I get get an earlier delivery of 15th Oct.

Preorders on most major UK retailers for the Sage show out of stock and CPW was amongst the few still having Sage for a release date delivery.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] TokedUp:
So glad i didn't listen to ppl and wait for a deal. There might not even be stock to put on sale at a discount. Maybe the Black but the Baby Yoda Green is gonna be a hard find at some point.

Pre-ordered and coming from a Pixel 2 XL. For my complete phone history, watch my sig.

Coming from a Pixel 4 XL 64GB white.

Ordered a Pixel 5 Sage from Google store which is due for delivery on the 16th October.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Supersonicc:
My thinking was exactly the same. I nearly waited for the Black Friday deals but had a feeling that Sorta Sage colour will likely sell out everywhere like hot cakes before then.

I pre-ordered from Amazon UK on Saturday as I had a gift card & promo credit - then it sold out on Amazon later that day. My delivery date is 15th October so really happy.

For those waiting for the green Pixel 5, I would think Amazon have a number of Pixel 5's in reserve to sell as a deal on Prime Day on 13th/14th October, just before actual official release day.

Google should have called it Baby Yoda Green instead of Sorta Sage! :)
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] xxnoelziexx:
My needs have changed due to my new current ways of working. I now need a smaller handset having to now carry two around (work/personal).

Gains on the battery will also be beneficial.

I have really enjoyed the Pixel line even with their ups and downs and I am confident the Pixel 5 will be no different. Most of my handsets are passed down to my daughter who would welcome the 4XL, she is currently using a 3XL.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] BJozi:
Size was one of the issues I had against the oneplus, I find my Xiaomi mi 9t just a little too big.

I was set on the 4a until I realised the 5 is roughly they same, the Bose headphone deal pushed me over the line.

Will be interesting to see if you notice a difference between the Nord and 5 in terms of speed
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Leeside:
I'm coming from the Xpreria XZ1 compact.

Pre-ordered the Pixel 5 black on the google website for 613 Euros.

Delivery is expected to be 10-11 Nov. I could pre-order from Amazon.co.uk, and have it arrive sooner, but the price works out at 680 euros. Will use the saved cash on accessories instead. Even if it means I get it later.

Can't wait to try my first Pixel. Have had Xperia's for the last 10 years. Time for a change. I'm hoping that by using dark mode, and turning off 90hz, it will comfortably be a 2 day battery phone.

*edit - I just cancelled my Google pre-order and went with Amazon. The quicker delivery (almost 4 weeks), while more expensive, should increase my chances of being able to redeem the Bose headphones (before they are all gone).

-Oct 28/2nd tier shipping (not expedited). It was one day difference, and I am guessing/hoping that Fi will get the phone in my hands earlier than others. I am an early adopter.

-Fi store.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Fgarcor:
Coming from a oneplus 3 that I bought just as a temporary device because I didn't like the shape of the pixel one.

I fell in love with the device and it sticked with me 4 years!

Now the pixel 5 had the following interesting points for me, in priority:

- Google OS pure

- camera quality

- form factor, being smaller makes it more attractive to me

- wireless charging, so I can use it in my car

- ip68, so I am not always worried if used nearby water

Mine arrives only around mid November and I'm not that mad either. I'm a Google One customer, so I get 10% in play store 'money'. So over all the phone is much cheaper for me the buying it at MediaMarkt

Coming from a Nubia Red Magic 3, a device which on paper should be superior to the P5, but I know better:)).

Ordered sorta sage from mobiles.co.uk, since the sage was sold out on Google Store. They say the delivery date will be October 15.

I wouldn't bet on it...

Currently using Note 10 (ok battery life), also Pixel 4 (battery life don't last from sunrise to sunset, 64gb filled up).

Have Pixel 5 sage coming this Thursday from Amazon. Hopefully with better battery than Note 10 and brighter screen than Pixel 4.

The Bose headphones will save me £100 of Xmas present so £500 for the Pixel 5 is a good value in my book.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jasbur17:

Is there any special deal with the preorders? When I preordered my 2xl I received a google home mini as part of preordering. I haven't seen any specials or reasons to preorder besides getting the phone ASAP.

Still wondering if it's worth it to preorder or wait to see if the price drops like the 2xl did within the first month.

[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Bigmille:
Also looks like USA Pixel 5 owners pays $100 more due to the mm wave antenna about 10 people have access to right now.

Plus no Bose headphones currently selling $250 in UK and EU.

Seems Google shafted USA this time instead European customers.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gibsonflyingv:
I don't even need it and I'm going nuts waiting. I'm expecting you all european folks to give us some hard comparison photos/videos. I'm tired of these stupid embargo videos. "Here's my box... wow it's a phone!"

Edit: first one I've seen that's not totallydubbed's https://youtu.be/PYBoAGFh828

Video panning looks pretty stuttery. Can't say I really care though, probably take videos on my phone like twice a year.

Edit2: looks like the full embargo just dropped.

Just curious, I still have the Google payment pending in my checking account. What is everyone else experiencing.?
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] BJozi:
Payment went through for me on the 14th, the day it shipped.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] rav101:
I ordered through my carrier (Three UK) on Wednesday and it turned up yesterday as they had stock ready. I've come from the OP7Pro and so far I'm really happy / impressed.

The Pixel software is much much better for idle drain (around 0.2% per hour compared to around 0.7% per hour on several OP phones I've had).

App opening times seem to be on par with the OP7Pro as well so from a general day to day usage perspective this phone is great. Of course the GPU is lacking in compared to 865 and 855 so games won't perform as well so I guess it really depends on what you use your phone for.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sooner Magic:
I also have a OP7Pro and appreciate the comparative information. I have always felt the OP7Pro was lightening fast and smooth so good to hear the Pixel 5 in on par. And agree that it really depends on how you use your phone.

Given the screen size difference between the Op7Pro and the Pixel 5, do you feel like you took a step backwards? Any thoughts on the comparative screen experience (brightness, smoothness, color saturation, size)? The OP7Pro is too large for one handed but it's great for media consumption.

Thank you in advance.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nardustyle:
Coming from One Plus 3, it was time to upgrade... :) ordered from google store uk , should be with me next week
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] rav101:
Yeah I don't do any gaming etc so talking mostly from an app opening speed point of view in terms of snappiness.

On the screen size, the Pixel is definitely noticeably smaller but a day later and I'm already getting used to it. The OP7Pro was too big for me so the Pixel 5 feels like I'm getting back to the right size phone.

I haven't properly tested brightness as mostly indoors in a dull England but the 90 Hz screen is smooth. Colours seem good to me but I'm no expert in that area to be honest.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gibsonflyingv:
I'm in the US, so I had the test payment on my card for about a week. That disappeared. Nothing yet. I'm guessing I won't get charged again until it ships.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] vandyman:
Thanks, I had pending showing on my account for a few days. These morning, Google sent me an email saying that there was something wrong with my payment.

Come to find out out they needed the 3 digit security code on the back of my card. I just assumed that they were trying to charge my card for shipment. But my account still shows pending. Crazy..
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gibsonflyingv:
Yeah it's definitely irritating when it's basically eating up $750 of your credit limit for a month, lol.

Yeah I couldn't recall the official release date. I saw others getting them but they are in different countries. Up until about two weeks ago I had no plans to upgrade since the 3XL is working fine. But I do like the slightly smaller screen size and the increased RAM and storage sold me.

I'd be happy with a single camera, dont get the point of 3,4 or 5 lenses on a phone (buy a camera!) looking forward to the development scene for this phone as it's encouraged and no need for special tools, accounts or waits to unlock bootloader, yeah I'm looking at you Xiaomi.

[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] wgrant:
The unfortunate reality is that there is no way to know if you'll get one from an old batch because they have extra still or if you'll get one from a fixed batch. In theory they should swap all inventory with repaired units but that isn't always the case with electronics. I'm letting mine come (keeping my current phone until I fully decide).
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] TokedUp:
We need to get the issue to a media outlet so they can get a statement from Google. Not some CSR working the weekend.

I think "2020 Android & Google apps combo" can't compete anymore with sub 3000mAh phones.

[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] wgrant:
I'm keeping my pre-order. If it's a problem I'll try a single replacement and then return after that. I have a perfectly fine phone that I'm typing this on so I can fall back. I'm looking forward to the phone and hope the issues are isolated to the European market.
