At the price points I'm reading, I'll sit this one out.
I'll have Huawei repair the broken screen on my 6P and cross my fingers that they also repair the defective rear microphone at the same time. This makes it impossible to actually talk with anyone on the phone. If it isn't repaired then I get to go play the RMA game and hope one that works comes in.
I really hoped the smaller version would be priced similarly to the 5 and 5X. My gameplan was to just sell the 6P on ebay as-is since it looks like the going rate is the low $200s and then buy the smaller Pixel. But starting at $650? Nope.
I had my 6P screen repaired by Huawei a few months ago and they definitely sent me a different physical phone. It was the same as the one I sent in, but mine has a
slight bend in the edge of the frame from when I dropped it and this one was perfect. I suppose they could have just replaced more than I expected, but I get the feeling they receive your phone, verify that the repair is as you described it (i.e. not "screen repair" when there is water damage) and then send you somebody else's that they have fully refurbished/polished to like new.
