Google Pixel 2 Smartphones

Just got a Google Pixel 2 for like $280 and I can't believe how amazing this purchase was. I haven't had a new phone in six years, so I was really outdated, but I ran several tests on the phone I got in the mail and I have to say, it is WAY better than every newer phone I've seen in all aspects! The camera completely stunned me. No lag and such great quality photos, even at night! Anyway, this phone was just $280 because it has some minor broken glass corner on the back. Honestly, that shouldn't cost much at all to replace. It even has this camera feature called "Night Sight". What it does is it amazingly enhances the brightness in darker areas of photos. Just take a look at some that I(as a complete amateur) took:

I've had G7 thinq , s9, s9 plus, s8, s8 plus, Moto z2 force and pixel 2 xl none of them hold a candle to this phone but to be honest for everyday use pixel 3 is top, 2 xl is close second and very close 3rd is Moto z2 force. I love Samsung screens but the Moto software is so optimized for almost stock Android. If I had a oneplus6t I bet it would be up there with those phones the last one plus I had was 3t and that at the time was the best phone I ever owned until s8 and then s8 plus, then Moto z2 force, then s9, s9 plus, then pixel 2 xl, then pixel 3 and I'm very happy with this phone

Phone is very good. Very solidly built, and the camera is incredible., Battery life is huge. With moderate use to heavy use, I can take off charge in the morning and easily go 16 hours and STILL have around 30% battery left., Best of all, the bloatware on his phone is very limited leaving more rooms for apps that I want and use instead of apps I don't want and will never use., Downside is wireless charging is not part of the phone and there's no headphone jack. Have to use Bluetooth or a adapter., Overall, phone is great. Very fast, responsive, and well built. I'd say 4.5 stars. 5 if it had the headphone jack and supported wireless charging.

The product itself works great. But there are a few things that hold it back from being the best phone on the market., , First, it's fast. It has a phenomenal camera. And Google's free photos backup is great. Stock Android is great., , However, the battery life is sub-par, especially for a brand new, high end phone. It's disappointing that it doesn't have a replaceable battery, the one feature I believe EVERY phone should have. It's disappointing that it doesn't have a microsd slot. They do, however, offer a 128GB version. But you pay a hefty premium for the upgrade., , Overall, it's a great phone with some glaring omissions, with a price tag that says it should have included those omissions.

Background: I don't live on my phone, but I do use it extensively. I also view it as part of the technology ecosystem that is part of my life., , The Google Pixel 2 performs functions (app performance) exceptionally fast. Much faster than the 7th generation of the competitor's product that I previously owned. I have found that my signal strength is generally the same or higher, as well. The battery lasts me all day and, if absolutely necessary, will last 2 days (but that is pushing it a bit). This phone interfaces with my watch (a 3rd generation by the same manufacturer as my previous phone) without issue ... in some ways better than my previous phone did. It also interfaces exceptionally well with my Pixel C tablet (the tablet and phone recognize each other and actually asked me if I wanted to connect them and share the data connection)., , Bottom line: If you are an Android user and you are looking for flexibility and solid performance, then I recommend that you check out the Google Pixel 2. If you are already a Pixel C owner, then I definitely recommend that you consider moving to this phone.

Battery takes longer to charge than what it last

Microphone is not working., When I am calling people they cannot hear me unless I use the speaker.

I had the phone on for all of 25 hours and it shut off and wouldn't turn back on
