Just received my Pixel 2 XL 128G ordered from Techbug. Price is RM4664. Techbug include free 3 pin socket adapter in the box which is very nice cause the original socket is 2 pin US socket. My first Impression after 24 hours using it and firmware is based on November security update.
1. Display:
The blue tint is very minor and almost negligible. I have no flashing screen problem as reported by Phone Arena website. Screen is very bright even at 30% brightness. I put my colour mode under saturated cos it look more vibrant and sharp. Can compete with my S7edge amoled display. Really happy with the display. It up to personal preference. Other may prefer Boost or Natural mode.
2. Loudspeaker.
Not as loud as I expected. My previous Nexus 6P is much louder. The ringing tone sound for me is quite weak compare to media sound. Still ok with me but I was expecting a bit more louder.
3. Performance.
Buttery smooth. I dont feel any lag yet. Maybe still very new and not much apps installed.
4. Connectivity.
My 4G signal is really strong & stable. Wifi performance also very fast & stable. Never have dropout or disconnected problem yet.
5. Google Assistant.
Can say Hey Google now. Very accurate and fast response. Better than Siri. With Siri your english pronunciation must be perfect but with google assistant, even with broken english you can always get the correct answer.
6. Camera
Still testing it but so far the photo look very sharp & punchy. You can select HDR On or HDR Plus On. Not much different but if choose HDR On the photo capture is faster.
7. Battery
Still testing it
8. Voice call
Not tested it yet coz I seldom call people only use text through social media.
So far after 24 hours Im really happy with this phone.
