I disagree: there is a $500 difference in functionality, performance, battery life, appearance, and feel. I have had every Nexus and Pixel (XL, not non-XL) phone ever made. The XL 2 is $500 better than the 6P. The same can not be said about the 6P to XL 1 due to the crap speaker placement. But, yes, XL 2 is priced…

That amount of time is: full.

Yes, it’s actually rather good with Hershey’s Simple 5 Syrup, which I expect is not far from their normal syrup. It’s very different from Soylent Cacao flavor, but both that and Original+Hershey’s is pretty good.
