Pixel 2 XL 64GB Just Black (Manufacturer Refurbished) - $299.97 (PROMO CODE INSIDE) **PHONE ONLY**

Staples.ca has the Pixel 2 XL, on clearance, for $299.97 - a $250.02 discount if we're going by their website (we all know it's worth less, but whatever.). Also, if you use the promo code: "65943", you can get an extra $29.99 knocked off for a total of $305.08, all in.

Delivery only - Pick up OOS. 1 year limited warranty. I'm not sure what their return policy is.


Some takeaways

- Higher pixel density than both the 3 & 4 XL
- Larger battery than the 3 XL
X Smaller dimensions, screen to body ratio, and weighs less than both the Pixel 3 & 4 XL
X No headphone jack
X No wireless charging


It's still a great phone to own in 2019. Still one of the best cameras on a smartphone, and just as good as the 3 XL (minus maybe a few more options), night mode with the latest software update (runs Oreo out of the box) and it's still a premium flagship, 2 generations removed. Arguably a better bargain than the mid to low-tier options selling right now for around the same price. Things to consider, though.

- Black Friday is right around the corner, followed up by Boxing Day.

All and all, I think it's a decent deal if you're looking for a headset that was once heralded as the "best camera on a smartphone, ever.". We're all aware of Google's problems, from the green tint on the screen, horrible call quality/ dropped calls, and other software issues. But, if you can get past all that, and want to jump on a fair bargain, I'd recommend.
