Re: when will the reviews be out?

Phone Arena has a battery test with Pixel compared to Pixel 2. Pixel 2 is ~1hr improvement, Pixel 2 XL is ~1.5hr improvement.

That has me all warm and fuzzy inside. Kudos to Google for such battery life improvement. Hopefully I can replicate with my Pixel 2 in real life.

There are a bazillion reviews out. I would recommend you check out some camera comparisons as well.

The stability on the Pixel 2 is insane.

Agreed. That one video on AC while in the car is nuts. OIS + Software stabilization seems very impressive.

I must've missed that video.

I must've missed that video.

If you watch the video review from AC they show them filming in the car on the phone then they show what the phone recorded.

Ah right. I'll have to rewatch it, which I'm not opposed to. Hahah

Wait until they activate the *Pixel Visual Core* SOC in 8.1.

It will become even more insane then (in a good way of course) .

Has anyone seen a review from Android Authority or Erica the Technology Nerd?

I'm watching all these reviews until my Pixel 2 XL gets here.
