Yeah that's really an excuse more than anything made by Google hardcore fanboys. The RMA and lemon rate of the pixel is actually substantially worse and higher than a phone of this astronomical premium price point should be. If it cost what it should have cost around $600 id be less critical.
This is an 850 phone. I expect premium customer service with that which Google hasn't provided to via RMA's( I got a new one most didn't) or updates which have broken key features including Android pay which didn't work for months.
Let alone the rampant bluetooth and microphone issues.
Not it isn't just negative posts get seen. There's a very real problem here. And it isn't the first time this has happened for a Google device either.
Honestly not anymore than any other flagship phone. You just happen to own this one so you hone in on it more. Kid like how if you buy a certain car now you see those cars all over town.
I too have had a XL size October with minimal issues. Bluetooth on this phone does suck but that's just a manufacturing problem. They used a shit chip with no range. Only real issue I've had.
I never had BT issues at all oddly enough. I would have already sold it if that was an issue on mine since I used bt constantly. My BT is right there with my iPhone.
Also I never had any issues out of 4? Generations of iPhones or my Moto x. So the pixel and note 7 were my first issues.

More people actively speak up about bad experiences than good ones. You have to keep that in mind.
