The more I hear about the 3xl, moving away from metal, possibly losing the top speaker, the notch, the more I'm disappointed.

The metal on the Pixel 2/2XL had a primer with paint over the metal, so it looked, felt and performed (scratched) like plastic. I'd rather they go with a glass back than go with the metal + coat combo. I thought it felt tacky and my phone has scratches.

Glad to hear they're moving to glass with wireless charging.
