Pixel 4XL 128Gb - WHy not available from Vodafone?

It's time to upgrade my phone and plan.

 

I want to go back to a Pure/Stock Android phone and get away from the user interface, bloatware and unwanted apps that many manufacturers seem to insist that is on the phone (surrent phone is a Huawei).

 

Research points to one phone in the Vodafone range that ALMOST meets the requirements, the Google Pixel 4XL. (I would have looked at the 4a but who knows when that'll be released...... at this rate, the 5 will be out before it!).

 

But the big, almost deal breaker issue is memory - why, oh, why do Vodafone not carry the 128Gb version, why only the 64Gb? I know I can get the 128Gb version elsewhere, even on the Vodafone network, but just not from Vodafone.

 

So, if someone can actually answer this question, it would certainly help!

 

(The answer of "The Cloud" isn't actually a useful answer, especially as the phne exists!)

Simply put it's most probably a business decision made by Vodafone which they wouldn't discuss @Keith_G 

How about going Sim Only and buying the phone of choice as an alternative  ?

If that's the case, it's a bloody stupid anf short sightedbusiness decision, given I don't think there's another flagship phone below 128Gb, and I can get a 128Gb Pixel 4XL from another handset supplier, on Vodafone.

 

It was the same back with the Nexus - they only carried the 32Gb not the 64Gb (which everyone else carried).

 

You'd almost think they had more interest in shipping iPhones and Samsung handsets.

I'm only assuming here but I suspect they and other network's would go by market trend on what sells and what's available to buy by them in bulk @Keith_G
