Excellent Android Phone

published

This is a near perfect Android phone in my opinion. No bloat, just Android as it should be. I went from an old Huawei to this and it was a huge upgrade for me. The screen is just straight up beautiful to look at and its got the power to make all browsing silky smooth. I have literally never ad and freeze ups or hangs with this. Used to happen all the time with my old phone. Good maps are excellent too, the satellite locks immediately most times. Battery life is good but depends entirely on your use.The only downside is no headphone jack. I rate this phone and would recommend to to anyone. Its near faultless.

Great phone

published

Love this phone. Light but good size, fast, excellent battery life, quick to charge, perfect screen sensitivity and colours. Initialy was worried that it's a bit too narrow - should not have, as it's absolutely fine - can watch videos and read everything without a problem. Pure Android without bloatware and skins; everything just works. Finger print security access is really useful. Chose "kinda blue" colour for easier spotting inside my purse.

Best phone I've ever had

published

It lives up to its reputation in that it delivers picture quality second to none. It has a powerful processor and does everything I need it to do. It came with a Google Home Mini with my purchase. It syncs up well with Google Photo as well as all my Google documents.

Best camera hands down.

published

The Pixel 2 is honestly the best phone I've yet owned. For years, I've been waiting to find a phone that allows me to take the best quality photo without the hassle of space, and google's unlimited storage perfectly captures this! Stock android, no bloatware.. This phone is a lot better than Samsung with so many new features, and the speed is extremely fast as well!

My second brain.

This phone is awesome. I love how sturdy it feels - not like a price of fragile plastic. It has awesome battery life. It is fast and responsive and the photos are always great. Will definitely be upgrading to other Google phones in the future :D
There is literally nothing I don't like about this phone

It's amazing

published

The phone is amazing. It has replaced three devices and its voice control is the best I have ever used. Camera quality is outstanding and connectivity to services are second to none. Ease of use and strength of the phone are great as well. Would definitely recommend buying the pixel 2

Solid phone, easy to use

published

upgraded to the pixel about 2 weeks ago, its fast and easy to use.
the camera is good, vibrant colours.
I am slowly adjusting to life without a headphone jack but its ok.
The battery performance is really good, my old phone i was charging in the afternoon and this one lasts all day and night with heavy use before i have to charge it.

Easily the best 'vanilla' Android experience going

published

Bought this after having used iPhone for years because I was sick of Apple's updates ruining the phone.

Very happy that I did because it's simply an all round easier and more enjoyable experience.

The vanilla Android complements the stylish phone amazingly. The camera is great and I'll definitely be buying the next Pixel as well.

Excellent phone

published

This phone is excellent have not had any issues with it so far. Can Hear clearly through the speaker, photos are great quality and it automatically updates all the apps on it own you do not need to approve it to happen. I would highly recommend this phone for anyone wanting to convert from an iPhone to an android phone.

Not the sexiest of phones, but functional

published

In terms of user interface I feel like it is half way between my old Samsung and an Apple. There isn't really anything that made me feel like I upgraded from a Galaxy s6. The only upgrade is a seriously amazing battery.

The "water-resitant" phone feature is a bit of a fail and I found after it got splashed I can't use half of my chargers anymore. I plan on returning th ephone and getting a replacement.

I also assumed the device would work smoothly with the Google Home offerings, but they don't really work well. Both light up if I say "okay google", they don't talk to each other if I set alarms/timers/reminders etc.

I probably won't replace my phone with another google phone.

Great phone, with a few flaws

published

The phone itself runs as smoothly as you would expect a stock android phone to run. Functionality and compatibility with apps is great and I've never had any issues. The two main problems I have are:
1. battery life
2. camera light flares

The phone being so heavily promoted on its great battery life only applies to the pixel 2 XL. The pixel 2 itself will only last me 4 hours of screen on time at most. The next issue with the camera is in led lighting it picks up the light flares and distorts videos and some photos with lines across the photo/video.

Best android phone I've used

published

Definitely recommend. I've used many other android phones from a range of different manufacturers and the pixel 2 has by the smoothest OS experience. I have the 64gb model and though I was initially worried id run out of storage space, the photos app allows you to quickly delete any photos that have been backed up to the cloud so storage hasn't been an issue. The best part about it is the camera. The portrait mode makes ordinary shots into something a little more special.

Beautiful phone

published

I purchased my pixel 2 XL in February 2018 and love it . Incredible screen, battery life and ease of use . As it's made by Google fur Google it isn't bloated with software . The camera is excellent too . My only small gripe is the so called unscratchable Gorilla Glass is scratchable ! I have cared for the phone lovingly but it has a couple of hairline scratches already . Meaning I will get a screen guard . Dissapointed though with gorilla Glass.

Great camera but battery life can be better

published

I bought this back in December and found the camera for photo taking to be great but there are some minor issues--some fleshing lines, when taking videos with it (for the first few seconds). One of the other great function is the free unlimited upload space which means that I can upload all my video and photos to Google. I cannot think of other issues apart from this minor issue at this stage.

Battery life is not too bad, but it can be better. It generally lasts for a day if I don't use it much but it runs out quickly if I watch videos or use the phone frequently that day. As it uses the USB-C cable, I needed to buy new charging cable to charge the phone in the car or when use my previous power bank.

Fantastic phone!

published

I have been an avid iphone user and switched to the Pixel 2 thinking I would regret the choice - no way!
Awesome camera, battery life is quite good (in comparison to the iphone), fast charge is great, no bloatware clutter being a google phone which is great.
Only con is the USB C port being used for both earphones and charging - makes it hard to listen to music and charge at the same time, however the fast charge mitigates some of the negative.
