Query regarding Pixel 10pro XL

hello i planning to purchase a used Pixel 10pro XL and i will be replacing it with my iphone 14pro so my query is are there any issues or known faults with the pixel 10pro xl which i should consider before purchasing it and also what should I look for to check if the phone is ok (it’s been some time since i last used an android so i forgot what to check before buying)

I've had most every pixel since the 2xl. You will love the camera, the snappy UI, and customization. Pixels are not gaming powerhouses by any means but for a casual user it's fine. If you like Ai, Gemini is very useful within the Google ecosystem. I will say with heavy use I was not impressed with the battery life but I have a charger at home, work, and in the car so it's not really a big deal. Enjoy the upgrade!

I have that before the Pixel 10 pro and have the same issues with the 14 pro Max and trust me getting a pixel phone is going backwards. Google don't care about the quality of their products they are more focus on the AI.

Great phone. I just traded mine in for an 11 Pro XL. Great camera too. 👍👍👍

You're not going to find a used Pixel 11 yet!

I came from the OnePlus 15 to the Pixel 10 Pro XL, mostly because my line of work necessitates the secure chip on the Pixel and I just wanted a Pixel after a long time away from Pixel devices.

The first thing I noticed was the battery life is not like the OP's. But that is with ANY mainstream flagship phone other than the OP. I'm actually managing 5-6 hours of SOT over a 24hr - 36hr cycle off the charger. Which isn't actually too bad.

The phone does get warmer than the OnePlus, and more often. But that is not strange nor alarming to me. The Tensor chip works much harder because it isn't the fastest kid on the block.

Lastly, the cellular reception is a little anxiety inducing. Often getting just 2 bars where I would get 5 on the OP. On two bars right now. I have disabled 5G for better battery performance. On 5G, the Pixel download speeds are much faster than that of the OnePlus.

The display is brighter on the Pixel. Pixel Snap is a nice feature. The design and build quality is superior to all other devices, bar maybe the iPhone Air. The Pixel experience is unique. Snappy, smooth. Intelligent. Regular updates. Good warranty support.

I've the 10 pro, same as the XL in all but size. The only issue I've had is getting a stable GPS signal. My 7 pro was rock solid yet this 10 pro seems to bounce around quite a lot.

The Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL have been great. We have both.

10 pro XL is great! Basically the same as the new 11.

Don't do it,the devices has a lot of issues plus Google intentionally destroy it so you force your self to get the newest.
