This is image retention NOT burn in…amazing how the sheep will follow…
Wrong. For a company worth over $500 billion, making phones should be easy.
Color shift is a non-issue for the Pixel 2 XL, The Samsung S8 has color shift to a blue color as well, I don’t know why the new phone from Google is getting so much hate for it.
My pixel XL one has the same screen burn on the menu buttons that’s what happens when the screen is always displaying the same image on OLED but it’s too soon for the pixel 2
For those of you disappointed in your Google Pixel 2 XL dull colored screen.
Google has announced that if enough people tell google to make our screens more colorful beyond the default vivid setting. They will push an update to allow it’s users to adjust max colors on our screens.
Step 1: Go-to setting menu on phone.
Step 2: Scroll all the way down to support & tips and tap it
Step 3: Scroll down to send feedback and tap on it.
Step 4:.Type down a few words telling Google that you want your screens more Saturated with colors.
With your help we can get google to give us a software update to make our phones better.
I went into my Verizon store and seen the BAD burn in on the store demo phone. I took some pics and a video of it. I cant put on here but I have it.
I just idealized a world where there is no Apple and Samsung then i will buy the huawei mate 10, at least they didnt had any issues with their flagship right?
I don’t understand how the blue tint isn’t a deal breaker. Out the box you can se it.
That’s what you get for making fun of Apple !!!!
GOOG.L BOO BOOOOOOOO 👎
CONSIDERING THE PRICE OF THE PHONES — BAD SCREENS ‚DURABILITY & SPEAKERS ARE BIG DEALS !! $850–950 IS NOO JOKE. DEAL-BREAKERs I Think especially considering the competition aren’t having e same issues (at least not yet)
1st world problems
First mistake Google made was partnering with LG on something this important. Pixel 2 XL is officially an epic company fail.
Nope. Dont believe the hype. Notice how conveniently this news comes out precisely days away from the iPhone X launch. Don’t dismiss the possibility of an Apple fan user screenshotting their pixel home screen to then photoshop a fake screen burn. All Im saying is that the timing of this article seems like a very suspicious marketing scheme.
Same problem with the speakers of my sony xperia z5 premium! Loud upper speaker lower sound on the bottom, and they said it was normal!
Some unnecessary fashions have been introduced to smartphones these days.
1. No 3.5 mm headphone Jack
2. Non durable built material
3. Curved screen
4. Wireless charging
What I really want:
Dual SIM phone with OLD at least Full HD Displayat and 75% minimum screen to body ratio, single back camera with both optical and electronic image stabilization, minimum 8 megapixel front camera, 4GB minimum RAM with Qualcomm MSM8998 Snapdragon 835 chipset, minimum 64 GB internal storage, back finger print sensor and minimum 3500 mAh battery with durable built material. And no doubt 3.5mm jack holder.
I would Like To Know Why My AcateL Pixi #4 is Not Working Right The Square icin on the bottom~&~The Circle Icon Just Stopped Working ~&~My Notification Screen in The Front Of My Phone Does Not Come Down I Need A Good Phone That’s Not going To Do That All They Want Is to Reboot All Of The Cell phones & that’s the way they say it’s the only way to fix it
is his hair supposed to look like that?
This guy sounds like a spokesperson for google. Come on dude try to at least act like you aren’t under google’s influence lol
Google no longer affordable. 😔
Googlicious? Sounds more like Googlapologist.
Unsubscribing in 3,2,1😏
This just proves that these greedy companies (Google and Apple ect…) need to slowdown and go to a bi annual cycle instead of annual cycle of making phones. If we as consumers, would just wise up and stop buy new phones every stinking year because of all the hype🤥, we could force the companies to go on a bi annual cycle. That way they will have time to be “innovative” and wow us again and stop churning out CRAPPIE 💩 phones with ridiculous prices. JUST SAYIN🤔🤔
I had cancelled my Pixel 2 XL order and got a Samsung S8+ and OMG, i returned this piece of junk in less than 2 days…the placement of the fingerprint sensor, the bloatware and the curved edges… Anyway, I placed a new order for the Pixel 2 XL and back in line for end of December delivery, which gives time for Google to either come with a better action plan, or time to get an LG V30 outright unlocked, which should be available in my area by early December. For now my original Pixel XL still seems to be more than relevant. I hate curved screens and love the pure Android experience, so my time is running out.
It seems like Google has some quality control issues.
Google flops again LMMFAO! Can’t compete with Samsung or Apple with broken phones.
And… Another Google phone that I will Skip…
my phone works on sprint
Just got my pixel 2 xl.. And the blue tints issue is just annoying… A slight shift in angles will do it… Also, certain sounds will make the speaker cracks… 900 bucks is a lot of money, but not for these bad quality control issues.. Returning the pixel 🙁
Wait a minute, but i just saw you in Apple Byte.… how in the hell are you in both Apple and Google at the same ti.….. whoa teleportation IS real.….
I don’t understand the comment about the panda pixel. Are they more likely to be defective
How f*cked would android users be if google said screw you all and android was only android on the pixel 😂 cough Samsung/LG
Looks like I’m waiting for the red hydrogen smartphone after all from the Nexus 6p
SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME BUT MY SCREEN IS COMPLETELY WHITE!!!! SOMEONE HELP ME! I DON’T WANT ANYONE FINDING OUT I BROKE MY PHONE. BUT IT JUST HAPPENED WHILE I WAS PLAYING WITH IT ON A NORMAL BASIS. THE SCREEN IS COMPLETELY WHITE NOW.. HELPPPPP.. I TRIED THIS A FEW TIMES BUT DIDN’T WORK. I’M DYING AND CRYING RN!!
Despite all the problems with the Pixel 2 XL, they signed up LG (AGAIN) to make the Pixel 3 XL! That says it all.
I am still using the Pixel XL 1st Gen. Screen burn has been a serious issue for me. Pisses me off beyond belief. LG is the worst manufacturer on Earth for anything. Now that it will no longer be supported, I am needing a new phone but I’ve been pretty disgusted with the excuses from Google.
I have a Pixel 2XL (Verizon). For a while now I have had shadows of shells behind all apps etc. I have tried going to factory settings and when I turn the phone back on — the shadows of shells are still there. What can I do to get rid of them?
