Been using it since last Saturday, overall this is by far the smoothest phone I ever use.
And this is my first time using high end spec phone, it gives me very good user experience than the other phones I used.
The nearly stock Android Oxygen OS is also very clean. No any problem encountered when using it. I love the gesture shortcuts which is very convenient.

Now using Spigen Rugged Armor Case and stock screen protector from OnePlus.
Might plan to use other screen protector and I am not a fan of tempered class
Any other good non-tempered class screen protector to recommend? Thanks

Just stick to stock SP for now. I have purchased normal screen protector but doesn't fit nicely at edge. Perhaps, u can try the Nilkin SP if u could find it.

In case someone's wondering how does the ported Google Camera app compare to the stock camera app for low light photography

Havnt got them yet..

For those who have upgraded to 4.5.12 from 4.5.10, are you facing any additional battery drain?

I'm currently still using 4.5.10 - might consider not to flash to 4.5.12 since there isn't much of a major upgrade

I might be bias but as a previous owner of the case for Nexus 5x, I'd reccomend the Ringke Fusion case. It feels really good and solid in the hand. Mine still in transit, so I can't really show you the photo, but you can check out the review on youtube.

Also, If you're into wireless charging, check out Nillkin magic case.

For those who wants to try out Google Camera latest version ported from Pixel 2, can use the following:

MGC_5.1.014_7.0H_C2API_v.1.0_AllinOne modded by Arnova8G2 (xda)
Download source - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...2&postcount=995

I'm using this together with OOS 4.5.13 without any major issue other than the delay in HDR processing.

Settings for manual focus (ie, touch to focus) to work:
Model: Pixel2XL
Config camera HDR+： Nexus
HDR+ Parameter: Medium

Settings for best picture quality but manual focus doesn't work. Auto focus works well.
Model: Pixel2XL
Config camera HDR+： Pixel
HDR+ Parameter: High (Note: you can choose Super High here for even better HDR quality but the processing time will be longer)

When using Google Camera, remember to turn on HDR+ (auto HDR doesn't really work for me in my case)
This app will not replace your stock camera app, it will be installed side by side. For low light photography, Google Camera is the better performer if you're doing it handheld.

If you have a tripod for your low light photography, the stock camera Pro Mode (fully manual mode) would be a better choice.

Slow motion 120fps on Google Camera will require root
A magisk module can be installed to enable that

Anyone anning to get pixel 2/oneplus 5t? Idk why but im falling in love with the s8(not +) design. Haha
