        Whoever buys a Pixel is bound to have all kinds of unnecessary problems. It's as if the designers or decision makers at Google are on some bad drugs. Always full of bugs as well as software and hardware compromises.

                  Aren’t display profiles managed in software? Could further tuning and calibration not have eliminated this before release? Or did they cheap out on the driver and don’t have fine enough control?

                            Always the same, these pixel phones are good in only 2 things, updates and camera, and always really bad screens, leaving aside the part of their ugliness

                              Clearly LG made OLED Panel. LG has reputation for Bad performing OLED Displays.

                                  Completely agree Google should stick to software. Or at least partner again with samsung or LG and make a decent pixel phone. The pixel have always been a 90% phone always something that let's them down. Not saying bad phones just I.M.O rushed.

                                    absolute garbage... for that price, and it still has this kind of "hardware limitation"

                                      Why so many freakin' articles about the Pixel 4? All you guys are asking for is a roast-fest in the comments. You guys are going to review the phones so we'll take our roasts there when you release it but for now, we know how stupid and overly priced this phone is already. We get it. Move on. Look up Umidigi, Ulefone, and Blackview if you need more phone news. Heck, how about looking up /e/ Foundation (the new OS that's Android without Google) and make an article about that. There's more out there than the freakin' Pixel phones.
