Google Pixel XL after the iPhone 7 plus

The iPhone looks better, performs better and works seamlessly with my Watch. Not even for a second did I consider the pixel.

My house has never burned down from a fire but I'm really glad I pay for fire insurance in case, one day, it does burn down. The "well my phone never got damaged from water" argument is not a good argument against water resistance.

I need to stop reading these comments because I swear I see that same canned response over and over about "my house never burned down but I'm glad..."

That's a poor comparison. Not only is water resistance not any kind of insurance whatsoever, the cost difference between a house and a phone puts them in two extremely different categories comparison wise.

It's an even worse argument because there is no "insurance" against water damage of the phone. Yes, the iPhone should be able to survive being dropped in a puddle but, if it doesn't, you are still out of luck, since Apple still doesn't cover water damage to the phone. Worse, if you get your phone wet, even if the water doesn't actually cause damage and later have an actual warranty issue, but one that could have been caused by water damage, then you run the risk that Apple won't fix your legitimate claim under warranty because the phone shows it got wet -- just the same as if it had no water resistance.

My boss has the xl pixel he came from a 6s plus an he hates it. He let me mess with it nice OS an smooth like ios but for the price he you can get s7 edge or 7 plus an have a better user experience. Also the s8 is coming out soon my choice would be ios compared to the new pixel.

It's a valid argument.

I never said water resistance was a kind of insurance. I used it as an example of something I never use, but would be glad to have when/if I do need it. Saying "I've never dropped my phone in water in 3458340583409 years" is not a good argument against water resistance. In fact, it's a very poor argument.

One big purchase decision for the Pixel is… you'll receive updates for 2 years?

That's hard to know, maybe it's recalled like the Note7 but possibly for 2 years will be ok, more than that is more a wish than anything else.
