[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] cwburns32:
I have had mine for nearly two weeks and it is absolutely stunning. Yeah I have a bit of the blue shift (to be expected on most OLED displays) that I don't mind at all, haven't seen much burn-in at all but have moved over to immersive mode via ADB until they release some additional screen fixes/improvements to try and help with it, haven't seen any black smearing whatsoever, etc. In regards to the bland colors, Google announced saturation mode that I imagine will come with the December release? This will be x amount more than the current vibrant mode or whatever it is, I believe it is +10%+, not certain on how much more saturation mode will be, if you dig more vibrant colors and all. I actually prefer, the more true-looking, duller colors but do have vibrant mode turned on (not much of noticeable difference), will play around with "saturation mode" once available but will likely stick with the duller look, saturation mode may be good for video viewing/editing and watching movies/videos.

Like the first poster said, the phone is great, does not get warm, incredibly fast and feels buttery smooth, the battery life is phenomenal, 2 years of warranty and 3 years of OS updates. Could not be happier. I almost got 50 hours out of my phone the other day, probably would have but needed to head out so wanted to throw it on charger, ended up charging it at 7% and about 48 hours off charger, granted I barely had screen on (4 hours) as it was a busy weekend where I didn't need my phone much but all in all very impressed as I have quite possibly every little battery sucker turned on on the phone. I did do some GPSing, lots of music, texting, some snapchatting, lots of Twitter feeds loading, etc. but I'd say mostly light to moderate use, impressed nonetheless.

In the end, it is your choice but I could not be happier with my purchase and would do it all over again, had I known about screen issues upfront.

EDIT: I take back the saturation mode coming in December release.....it is here and available in the November release. I will post screens to a different thread and can provide a link to it later but just thought I'd let you all know.

Yes
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] clapper66:
Disregarding screen issues that don't even bother me personally. The colors I know will be fixed either by Google or of not with root and custom kernele we will be able to fix that. The phone is amazing. If you do paranoid about the screen stop at a Verizon location and look at it even if you don't have verizon, but I don't recommend buying in through Verizon! :highfive:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Az Biker:
I've had mine almost 2 weeks and really haven't found any reason to not love it.

I did a comparison of the screen / blue tint HERE if you want to see a bunch of side by side comparisons.

But honestly, like I've told everyone who's asked: get one, keep it a week, use it play with it, run it through your daily use, and then make the call to keep it or return it.

Nearly every aspect of liking a device is subjective to each person's individual likes and tastes.

I'd hate to see you cheat yourself out of a great device because someone else said it sucked, or had this flaw.

Get it. If you hate it, or just can't get over the blue tint, return it and move on :D

No one knows better than YOU what you'll like.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] kdkinc:
If you have to ask, then the answer is NO!

The device is only for self-minded individuals.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Reuben_skelz92:
If you like a good screen then no
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] cwburns32:
?? My screen is beautiful and I am not experiencing some of the issues others have had. I believe most of the screen issues were related to a few specific batches....they have already came out with an update to fix and help improve many of the lil nuances ppl have been knee jerk complaining about. The screen is fine unless you are the super picky type.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Reuben_skelz92:
False statement. The update only sorted the colours... More saturation. Most of the issues are hardware. It's not just a few batches. You don't have to be picky to not be happy with the issues...at the high price too. It's been proven the LG p oled in most cases is sub par
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] cwburns32:
Did it? It didn't provide the dimming of the home back and recent buttons to help prevent burn-in? It didn't update brightness configs? It wasn't just colors...

And yes not all batches have the burn-in or even the severe blue tinting issues. I have no signs of burn-in and compared my phone to another P2XL and my blue tinting is hardly visible when my buddies is easily noticed. He does not have any noticeable burn-in either.

I understand that a lot of it is hardware related but there can be improvements on software side to help make the screen last as long as possible as we all know OLEDs decay over time regardless. Is it sub par, it very well may be, but to the average user I dont know if they will notice it being sub par versus superb. I honestly have zero gripes with screen, it is highly objective, but so is the term "good screen".

And, as I mentioned in my post, in the end it will be up to the end user to decide if the screen is bad or not.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Sulusulu:
I love my Pixel 2 XL. It's the best phone I've ever used and that's with five years of selling phones.

The screen isn't as good as Samsungs. I wish that it was, especially considering the price tag. But the screen is not bad but any means. The blue tint is a design choice. It doesn't bother me. I would like a wider color gamut than just the RGB colorspace and the new "saturated" option just seems to make everything more saturated as opposed to just enabling super saturated colors to be displayed. I find that very disappointing. But that is fixable...

I could go on and nitpick the rest of the phone, but truly the reason to buy this phone above all others is the software. It's buttery smooth. It makes the other companies software look bit silly.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] cescman:
I would recommend the phone. It was otherwise perfect for me if not the screen, and the screen is not that bad especially after the OS update yesterday. I don't see any graininess. I like the natural color more (and now you can change to saturated mode), there is very slight screen burn in or image retention (which I have to look for it by downloading a screen test app and adjust the screen brightness and environment lighting to be able to see, normally I just can't see it). The worst about the screen for me is the blue tint. It was very noticeable when I first switch on the phone, perhaps I specifically look for it after reading all the comments everywhere. After using it for a week, it becomes less and less noticeable. And now in the saturated mode, the blue tint becomes the normal color I am used to, while the normal color when viewed straight on becomes a vibrant and saturated one that everyone else wants.

However, I agree with others that you can go to a verizon store and have a look yourself. And buy and try for a week then decide whether you want to return it.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Reuben_skelz92:
If google had gone with a samsung panel this would have been the best phone every
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] MrWilsonxD:
And more RAM, and a headphone jack... I would agree absolutely.

Hi, guys!

I have noticed that nowadays prices in shopping sites are changing very often during a short time. If you want to buy item when its price is the most adequate you need to spend a lot of time to track its price.

I developed this application for myself to track items in various sites for money saving purposes. As time goes, I developed this application as fully functioning tool that helps to save a lot of money and time too. So I decided to publish it in Google play and make it public.

KAEYO helps you to save money and time by storing and tracking the price changes of items you desire almost on all shopping websites including the most popular like Amazon, Wallmart, Ikea, Best Buy, Ebay, etc.

KAEYO supports the following features:

• Item's price tracking almost on all shopping websites.

• Integrated browser.

• Price automatic monitoring.

• Price change alerts.

• Target price feature. You will get a notification only when the current item price drops to or below the target price.

• Price change history.

• Flexible and wide application's settings.

Feel free to try. I would appreciate your reviews and suggestions. Thanks in advance!!! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Any good that case?
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] ashensii:
This is cheap feeling case, I quess this is better than nothing until there are some decent cases available.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] Elsydeon:
Where are you located? There's no mention of a case being included in the U.S. "what's included" description. I personally like to just stick a skin on the back followed by a ultra thin clear TPU case, so if one's included, I wouldn't need to bother buying another case.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] ashensii:
I'm from Finland so I quess phone is european version. The skin came in untouched 1+ box.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] el56:
I believe there is only one version sold worldwide, and I've seen the skin included in some of the unboxing videos I've seen on YouTube.

Mine came today. The TPU case is fine for what it is-a stand in until you get a case that matches your personality. I did buy the Carbon case with mine, I love the look and feel, it is very slim, but I really do wonder what would happen if I did drop it on a hard surface, just feels like there isnt much protection there.

Great phone overall, too bad that it does not have a Widevine L1 Certification.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] BullHorn7:
After almost 2 weeks with the phone, there's only 3 things that bother me:

1) The metallic rear panel is way too slippery if you intended to go Commando.

2) The Bluetooth hardware/software is inadequate and music playback is stuttering/skipping regardless if you're using aptX HD, aptX or SBC codecs.

3) The OnePlus notification slider is completely useless because you can't set DND mode to Vibrate Only so you effectively only have 2 useful modes: Loud and then you have to choose between either complete DND OR vibration.

Other than that, no competition for this price.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] AWBbox:
The OnePlus 5T is my first handset from OnePlus and after a weeks use it will most probably be my last. From day one the phone would take several attempts to boot, often hanging or rebooting mid-boot. Even basic apps freeze and crash constantly rendering the device unusable. Even after the OxygenOS 4.7.4 update the problems still persisted. Check out these pretty artefacts on the screen as the thing struggles to boot:

[YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJZv8Zhasj0[/YOUTUBE]

I will be returning the handset and all the accessories I bought for a full refund. I really don't see what the hype is about the 5T, one can only assume the price is lower than other 'flagship' handsets due to cost cutting in the quality control department.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] IntergalacticPenguin:
Must be faulty one, mine is totally fine, except the white navigation button bar mentioned earlier.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] SilverSurger:
From that video alone you can tell rather easily that you received a faulty device. Which happens with every manufacturer out there, there is a fault rate here and you were just unlucky.

It should be rather obvious too - why would reviewers deem the 5T a good device if it isn't even booting right?
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] marvi0:
Definitely a faulty one you have there matey. Mine has been great, loaded a custom kernel and it's kicking the ground hard.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] michi491:
Well first oneplus and so far so good.

But :

- can't redirect Google map sound to phone speaker when bluetooth connected to car : serious bug

- can't change the earpiece volume after a few seconds in a call : serious bug

- can't change notifications volume independantly from ring tone volume : missing feature

- don't have smart stay for display : missing feature
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] Dior DNA:
This phone has raw power, looks good and is has incredible value/price ratio.

Great developer support too. It is my first 1+ and will not be my last.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] SilverSurger:
I'm one of those guys ;) I find the back to be tolerable, but it is indeed quite slippery.

Can't attest to that - had it running for 3 hours yesterday on a long drive and no skipping was noticeable. Although, I'm coming from the Nexus 5X which had very noticeable skips every other song at least.

Have to agree completely - I'm hoping to use it for something else entirely in the future, hope someone will make it "reprogramable".

Can't you set that in the Google Maps app itself? there is a setting for redirecting the sound to bluetooth. Or is that what isn't working?

It's my first OnePlus too, and so far I'm very happy with it. Other than the missing Widevine L1 certification* and some uncertainties regarding the future of the phone, I'm happy with it.

*: Which I personally only need for Netflix which can be patched to support HD regardless.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] michi491:
It is precisely what's not working
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] SilverSurger:
Can confirm - setting voice to not go over Bluetooth did nothing, it is still played back over the connected device.

Loving this phone - I came from a OPO so it was a massive upgrade for me.

There are a few annoying things though:

> Screen doesn't look as nice - seemed crisper on OPO

> No way to disable vibration when double tapping to wake or using fingerprint.

> Slippery AF even with a skin, so i'm keeping it in the case

I am planning on rooting and installing Lineage 15.1 when the nightly builds start arriving :)

Happy about the device itself, good components, potent device with a good Soc but camera wise, it doesn't cut it to me. If it did, I would have found a true replacement to my 6p, but still haven't found any to this day. And it will be discontinuated and be forgotten by OP itself. So, it was exciting to have this device, but I won't keep it.

Its amazingly fast, the battery is fantastic, the charging is insane, face unlock has not let me down once in the past month of ownership.

My only critique is the camera is acceptable and "ok google" whilst in sleep mode would make this perfect for me.

I still Love it, along with the price tag :D

Just got my beast today. This is the first device I didn't Root outta the box. I'm actually enjoying stock, maybe I root this weekend after reading up heavily. Did I say it was love at first spin. Just downloaded 8.1 full update, maybe I'll try that tomorrow when I get back home from school.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] blas4me:
I agree, I would root and flash a custom ROM, outta the box. I'm kinda loving the OOS, experience. Something new and refreshing. The custom builds aren't offering anything that I can't get with stock, except the ability to use Substratum Theme Engine, but OOS offers some dark theming options that suffice.

I dont have the Oneplus 5T yet. Because I think I'll wait and see how the 6 will compare to it. But from all I have heard about, watched videos, and read in this thread. This phone is awesome.

I have a lot of other phones so I don't use my 5t all the time but Everytime I come back it becomes clear how fast it is.
[OnePlus 5T  Real Life Review] beefgoat:
My first experience with that was the original Moto X. I was used to flashing AOKP on my Samsung phones. I tried a couple of ROMs on my Moto X, but none of them best the little tweaks Motorola sprinkled on top of stock Android. Then Lenovo happened.

I went back to Samsung for about a year, and hated every minute. My shiny, expensive phone (with a damned good camera I must admit) had a buggy, slow, and UI that looked like a kindergarten crayon drawing. I needed a new phone.

OnePlus had gotten my attention with their first phone, but it did seem they needed time to mature. When I could no longer look at my S7, I decided I had nothing to lose in buying a "budget flagship".

I'm digressing. Anyway, the tldr is that my OnePlus 5T has rarely disappointed me. Just like my old Moto X (rest in peace), the 5T focused more on what works and what's practical for the majority of users, as opposed to cramming in gimmicky features in lieu of true creativity.

I'm done

I can pair them to each oter, and everything works fine. When I turn of the headset( to recharge or to save battery) The connection is lost the next time I turn it back on, I do have to pair them again. First I tough it was my headsets problem, but then I tried to pair a BT GPS mouse, the same result. I have the same problem pairing this GPS with other devices(TyTN, iMate Jamin) running WM6.
