This is my favorite phone i've owned.
Aside from having no aux port, no sd card support, and the battery life I've had no issues with this phone.
I also own a galaxy s21 ultra and by far I prefer the pixel 2 over it, if only it had a modern snapdragon and more ram.
- Oled
- Compact
- Very powerful for its time
- Front facing speakers
- Nice screen
- Battery life is poor
- No aux port
- No sd card support
When I looked for a new phone for my birthday in 2018, I wanted a flagship phone and at the time didn't really care about the camera, but when the Google Pixel 2 was announced with the best camera at the time (and still competes today) I jumped at the chance and immediately started taking photos, they were excellent and my love for photography grew and since preordered and upgraded to a Google Pixel 5.
- Camera
- Front fireing speakers
- Squeeze for assistant
- 3 years of reliable updates (until October 2020)
- fast charging
- battery not as good
- large bezels
Nice phone but it needs improvement on the battery.. I have used it about for a month and its blazing fast and almost no lags to the user experience. My only concern is that of its battery life where I can barely make it through the day of minimal usage
- Best screen
- Stereo speakers
- Lightweight
- Design
- Battery life
- No headphone jack
- Really battery life
