Google Pixel 2 XL 64GB

Used this device for about 6 days.Below is my initial review( Running on Android 8.1 from the first day)

PROS

1. Battery life- Excellent. SOT is always around 9 hours ( 5 cycles so far) . First time ever, I found it tough to kill the battery.

   
   




2. Fluid performance on every aspect.

   
   




3. Natural mode on display is really natural.

   
   




4. Rear camera ofcourse.

   
   




5. Gestures.

   
   




6. Charging time is around 2hours 10minutes which is good for 3520mah battery.

   
   




7. Stereo speakers ( good at less than 60% volume only)

   
   




8. More wallpapers.

   
   




9. Ofcourse latest Android always.

   
   




10. 2 year warranty.

    
    




11. 3 year software support.

    
    

CONS

1. Speaker is getting some noise when more than one notification comes at a time. Speaker Distortions also annoying at higher volumes for some kind of audio.

   
   




2. Touch on edges are not consistent some times.especially during games.

   
   




3. Front camera is below average on low lighting conditions. Google camera could have included filters.

   
   




4. Phone is little taller which is not comfortable to hold.

   
   




5. A sound( Speaker being used kind of indication) is coming from earpiece during call which can be heard in very silent conditions.

   
   




6. Phone is slippery.

   
   




7. Lack of 3.5mm jack.

   
   




8. Lack of wireless charging considering removal of 3.5mm jack.

   
   




9. Google should have included wireless headset if they are not encouraging 3.5mm jack ( Intead of Type C to 3.5mm adapter) .

   
   

Improvements

1. Speakers issues, Touch issues on edges.

   
   




2. Blue shift is slightly reduced on saturation mode.So there is a scope for improvement.

   
   

So guys this is a excellent google product.

Thank You
