This phone is embarrassing. Look at those bezels. Yes, they're smaller, but man, the Xperia XA2 Ultra has the same screen to body ratio and still looks prettier than this phone. The advantage of Nexus phones were that they were cheaper. This is $900. What? Big side bezels, no IP68, just 67, an 'all aluminium design' when it's clearly a plastic coating, a thick one mind you. NO HEADPHONES INCLUDED WITH A $900 SMARTPHONE! No SD card slot, no wireless charging. The Pixel is the last flagship of 2017 and still lacks features, and COSTS $900! I wish that Google wakes up and realize where they actually f*cked up and revive the Nexus line. Way too expensive, I wouldn't recommend this phone to almost anyone. I don't care what MKBHD and others say. The price is not justifiable.

    This phone was so close to being perfect. Why oh why didn't Google use Samsung for the 2XL screen instead of LG?

All of them have some degree of blue shift but some are a lot worse than others. There’s also graininess and black smearing. This is because Google used LG for the 2XL screen, while the regular model uses a Samsung screen without these issues.

Plus it has the best camera in the business. However, the S8 is objectively better all round. It doesn’t have the 2XL’s screen issues and has that 3.5mm jack.

I use my phone a lot for YouTube, web browsing, listening to music (through speakers and Bluetooth headphones) and snapchat and take a fair amount of photos

                                    The main feature of Android is that it is So Open
                                    and Customizable. To whom? The basic
                                    customization of choosing between Stock Android
                                    and manufacturer based UI by the ultimate
                                    consumer is even not on the books of Android
                                    Licensing agreements. We may think of launchers.
                                    When the ULTIMATE UI that comes with the phone is a bloatware by itself, what
                                    to do with launchers. To my belief every Android
                                    mobile should be released with stock Android. It
                                    should be the wish of the consumer to choose
                                    between launchers. Many get washed away by the
                                    different hardware specs but, the basics lie in the software that drives up the device. Good
                                    Luck Google.

Even though I owned this one, it's not worth the money. It's undeniable that Pixels camera had no match, but it's not much different with other brands such as Mate 10 Pro, Galaxy Note8, iPhone X and others. They ripped off headphone jack, microSD card slot and no double camera was a terrible idea for 900 bucks phone.
