Pixel 2 XL screen produces a bright flash when locking or unlocking the phone

This could be related to the Ambient display feature. Google has offered no fix yet.

Probably scroogle asked too low of a price for LG, so they just gave Google lower grade displays/craftsmanship.
Oh well, too many tech bloggers/youtubers will defend google anyway. This won’t be fixed, or will be fixed silently in some unknown timeframe.

      All they need to do is ask LG for help, since the latter already has experience from the V30, which also uses POLED.

        Its a great phone only ruined by screen issues google should recall it and replace LG poled with Samsung amoled

          That's what Google get for cancelling the middle of the 3 Pixels. They should've trusted HTC more. I mean, Google did hire HTC to make the first Nexus anyway.

            And every morning when you wake up ;-)

              Great feature to annoy people in the cinema ;-)

                that's the new feature that comes with the Pixel 2... it's called the SOS signal feature

                  Sir,
                  This is kinda getting boring. After every 2 articles we see an article about how nice the Iphone X is and then another one on how the Pixel 2 Xl sc*ewed up.Please find some articles on HTC U11+ , Mate 10 Pro , etc.
                  I think these 2 phones are the finest ones post Iphone X era

                    SKR..., 09 Nov 2017Should it be recalled like the Samsung Galaxy Note 7?I feel like they should offer a refund for anyone with a problematic one and cut their losses.
                    Both phones should be HTC made from now on and QC needs to be thorough.

                      Lesson 1 never let LG make your phone

                        Should it be recalled like the Samsung Galaxy Note 7?
