I'm actually selling my Pixel 2 XL off to a friend after having it for 3 months, Google's got too creepy I'm switching back to my old 5s. As much as I hate the price, I have privacy.

Look at it this way, Apple doesn't grab or sell your data, so when they sell you a device that's all the money they're going to make from you.

When Google sells you a device they can afford to "discount" it as they'll make more money whenever you use the device.
