    Ok so I just got the Google pixel 2. Because the MiA1 i had isn't compatible with the mobile network company I want to switch to.

    First impression
    It's got stereo front facing speakers!
    Fairly light compare to the MiA1
    No headphone jack :(
    Solid fast
    Matt finish around the rim and back feels nice
    And apparently squeezing the phone can trigger stuffs... Don't exactly know if this is necessary at all...

    • Charges SUPER fast too. I like mine but it’s just a work phone so not my daily driver.monospaced
    • I have one, could not be happierdrgs
    • should have waited, 3 is out in a few months,fadein11
    • I never get the newest consumer tech. I wait for reviews to be published and
      all the wrinkles ironed out first

    • the squeeze thing brings up the assistant, I wish you could re-assign it to other functions like opening a new browser tab.zarkonite
    • Ya I disable the assistant. I don't need assist!pango
    • I like mine a lot but get a case. Glass back is a bitch.sarahfailin
    • Ya getting one from Amazon.
      Why couldn't they make 100% aluminum Matt back instead of 20% glass back?

    • My White Pixel 2 has a plastic back it seems? More durable than iPhone and not as slippery. I still can’t stand the unnecessary steps to get certain things donemonospaced
    • Out of nowhere the weather indicators disappeared from my home and lock screens and no way to get them back. I hate that.monospaced
    • It's actually metal unibody
      It's the matt finish that made it feel like plastic.

    • I like the finish. It doesn’t leap off surfaces like my iPhone 8 seems to do several times a day.monospaced
